After so many years of practice deciphering the cryptic posts on this board, it sounds like Braun will be coming back. Big news.
Much more likely today than it was previously. Heard some very good news in regards to that situation. Really can’t overstate how much he enjoys it at KU.
He’s king of the mountain. It’s not like he’s hurting for money right now, even if his family is well off. I think he will definitely get evaluated by the NBA, and he’ll come back for his senior year.

Dennis brings other qualities to the table, too.
We all have come to know that it isn’t just if a kid can ball. Their attitudes are equal contributions (or not).

We may need a big dose of humility on next year’s team coming off a NC.
I don’t know if he’s a good fit… that’s Self’s job. I do know he’s headed to Indiana for a visit.
Great defensive player. If we only had to play defense, he’d be great. Offensively, he’s sub par. I’d be afraid Bill would fall in love with his defense, and would overlook how mediocre he really is on offense. This is no Ochai…lol.
-
@approxinfinity where is that?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 in that story about Yes you posted
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I can’t fine anymore photos of Manhattan, Ames, Lubbock or Fort Worth that everyone hasn’t seen 8 times twice a year. I’ll be back when the new Big 12 is finally formed.
-
@wrwlumpy ha. You could do collages of anything i would still check em out.
-
@wrwlumpy at least check in! We miss hearing from you.

Dave officially gone, announced on Instagram. Kinda had to given we recruited like he would be gone. Would have been a bad look and burned some bridges.
-
Damn. Now let’s get his name in the rafters…
-
More soon. CB and JWill should both declare without an agent.

2 out of 3 ain’t bad…

We would have had someone leave that we REALLY don’t want to leave if Dave were to return.
I’d put it at 1.5 right now. With CB being the .5.
-
I think CB has the best chance but I think J Will wants to leave more than CB
-

Both very true. Talk around JWill is he wants to leave before every offseason and he ultimately ends up returning. It’s mostly because his other options are not as good. If you flip flopped their draft stock CB would be 1000% back and JWill would have declared w/ an agent by now.

Did JWill go through the process last year? If he declares again, is he gone for good?
-
@Gorilla72 Fairly confident they changed that rule so that players can go through the process as many times as they want.
-
JWill can declare again and return.
-
I think he’s in Disneyland or world.
-
Dave can still come back…even if he hires an agent…
slim and none, and slim just took the bus, but I can still wishful think…
-
@Jethro I’m here to crush dreams and chew bubblegum and well you know the rest.

Jalen is having a 5pm Twitter Spaces today. Announcement? @BShark
-
Has CB officially put his name in to the draft? 3 days left.
-

Probably worth tuning into.
-
@BShark do we have to do anything special to get it? Just click on it?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yeah just click the spaces link when it goes live
-
Missed it. What did Jalen say? Or is the link still valid?
-
Jalen is still talkin. It’s been good stuff. He talked about being in a dark place before the season but this year changed his life for the better.
-
@BShark it wouldn’t open for me. Dark place after his dui? Hope u took notes.

Looking like tomorrow is judgment today. Or I guess more appropriately today/tonight and then put out publicly tomorrow.
-
Your notes?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Jalen is a good kid. Sounds like NIL is a real game changer. He uh, dropped some hints and mentioned how guys no longer have to rush to the NBA cause they are getting more than gleague in college.
-
@BShark why the dark place?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Figured that was self explanatory. He didn’t really go into details but I’ve talked about it here before. He was disappointed in his draft feedback which led to the dui etc Early in the season he was focused way too hard on that instead of just trying to help the team win. That’s why he was tight as hell and shot so poorly.

I think he will be 2nd in scoring next year, right behind CB.
-
@BShark wasn’t sure which one came first.
-
@BShark hopefully he can handle the criticism this time.
-
We are entering that magic time of year… especially magic now with the portal and our new NC hardware. Self is a real magician this time of year.
I am excited to imagine next years team because we have such a good base to work off of.
*Anyone in here think we could be the next Florida and repeat in April? It would be nice to hear opinions before we salt down the team roster.
-
@drgnslayr RE: Repeat… Shhhhh… To do that we would have to fly under the radar. Again.
-
If they get CB AND JWill back, they’ve got as good of a chance as anyone since that Florida team. Would get to keep pace of play from a season ago. A really good situation to put talented freshman in.
If they don’t get CB back though, it’ll be interesting. Would need some guys who didn’t see a lot of time last season step up big. Would need the freshman to live up to some of the hype. Likely will need a transfer player to be an All-Big 12 player.
I do think Bill is about to do some things never seen before… Back to back would be a good start.
-
Might have jumped the gun on JWill returning, my bad.
-
Yeah JWill signed with an agent. But apparently you can do that now and come back if it’s an NCAA certified agent? Lol. Probably gone oh well.

His agent is certified. Always thought he’d declare.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah. He and CB would be dumb not to.

that hurts , & if Christan leaves gonna be interesting. - -If Christan comes back - -means a lot why ? - - CAUSE we will STILL have our Dog , our boy with some attitude , cockiness , edge - I love seeing that when you can back it up - - Christan can back it up. Christan comes back next year might be better, NO Och to defer shots to seems like he passed up a lot of shots, I dunno maybe he just felt Och needed to be THE GUY. - Well id Christan comes back he can be THE GUY- I still have serious doubts about him coming back but the ol wise one says - Oh he will be back -so we will have to see - hope so
-
@BShark so they can or not come back?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 can come back. Wouldn’t count on it based on what I heard tonight. Seems like the interviews happened today/tonight.
3 transfers out is still my guess. With what I was told on who we are targeting, they are recruiting as if Jalen is leaving.
-
@BShark if only g league?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I think he’d need a better offer than gleague. He wants to go pro somewhere though. His dream.
