@BShark You think we are on the Mosely or bust train?

Baylor can shoot but what else would he do here that we expect from Self kids? Didn’t look like a fit when you put the film on

So no Baylor for us He put Duke in his Final 5 before us. Pains me that we continually lose recruiting battles to DOOK
This is not a loss. Kentucky and KU both said NO THANKS. After contacting him via phone, neither of those staffs opted to visit him in home.
Don’t think he is good enough to play at Duke, should be Creighton.
I agree , I think when push comes to shove with him wanting to or also haas talked about playing in State - I think he ends up at Creighton

Suddenly our interest became very low, when a certain player informed the staff he would return.

I think we want a wing type to slot in for CB. Then if we can pull Hunter, someone finds their way into the portal.

Who informed the staff they were returning? Is this a Cuffe reference or a JW reference?

Sad there will be fewer mullets in the league.

Dam I didn’t realize that Smalen Smilson had said he was returning - how did I miss that?- that’s good though I thought for sure either NBA or over seas’s this yr for him

Great point. No replacing Jalen imo. Glad we hopefully don’t have to worry about that until next year…

Oklahoma St lands John Michael-Wright, transfer PG from High Point

Keyontae Johnson entered the portal from Florida. Johnson, collapsed during a game in December 2020 was a big time player but hasn’t played or practice since that day. Very interesting story to watch

Stay away snakes from North Carolina

@BShark “Really just a school that deals with pros. A school that is willing to make their best player run suicides or make their best player get disciplined as much as their worst player. A school that holds everybody accountable. I’m just looking for a good team. A family first team like Missouri State is." This sounds like us… Self brought preseason conference player of the year, Remy Martin off the bench and basically refused to play him until he got better.
-
@benshawks08 I was thinking the same.
Bill is running lead on Mosley himself. And of course we have an incredible recruiter in his best friend Dajuan Harris.
-
@BShark I like that he said he will most likely wait until May as well. I am sure he wants to wait and see how the dust settles with NBA guys, but it obviously works out quite well for KU.
-
All quiet today. Very odd.

@FarmerJayhawk yeah rofl. Good for his agent, used KU and UK to squeeze the Jays for more $$$.

Guard Mylik Wilson from Texas Tech in the portal

Portal at 1650. Shouldn’t see a ton more entries.

Not expecting any KU players to enter the portal. As of right now, no one is in. Crazy.

This is kind of shocking. At one point, what, there was thought of at least three with a foot in the portal door???

Up to 4.
Winning cures all I guess. Though 2 were a case of people thought Bill would boot them. Very interesting.

@BShark $$$$ at KU better than smaller d1 schools back home. Winning didn’t cure all but riding the bench making money is lucrative depending on these guys financial backgrounds

Thought a couple guys would be forced out based on what I heard. Bill getting SOFT himself?

Maybe he’s thinking that the 22 team was all about chemistry and doesn’t want to disrupt that…??

This probably means the attrition will be through the draft.
JCL, Cam Martin, Mitch, and Remy were all listed as super seniors, so they are all gone. Big Dave and Och are also gone.
We know that MJ Rice, Gradey Dick, Zuby Ejifor, and Ernest Udeh are all coming. Ejifor and Udeh replace Dave and Mitch. Rice replaces JCL’s roster spot. Dick replaces Remy’s roster spot.
So there are two roster spots open at a minimum, but I’m guessing KU fills three because Braun is probably gone, too.
If we assume that means Wilson is back, our rotation next year is:
Starters: Harris, Dick, Rice, Wilson, Transfer A
Reserves: Ejifor, Udeh, Clemence, Pettiford, Yesufu, Adams, Transfer B.
I don’t know where Kyle Cuffe fits into all of this. Honestly, he is the guy that I can’t really figure out. He’s a very bouncy athlete, but with him redshirting last year, its hard to gauge how the coaching staff feels about him. He can play. But how does he find minutes with Harris, Pettiford, Rice, Dick, Yesufu all playing guard/wing minutes. That’s five guys splitting up 120 minutes already, and we know Self loves both Harris and Pettiford, so 50 of those minutes are already gone.
KU could get by without any transfers, honestly, if Wilson returns. Even without Wilson, they probably don’t have to fill that other slot with a big time guy. But they probably do look for another guy either way.

Heard some pretty resolute stuff today about guys staying.

@justanotherfan We have not targeted a single big in the portal fwiw. I’d lean towards Zach starting, based on the word around the program.
I’d like to get a starter in the portal if CB does leave. Go with something like: Juan, Transfer, Rice or Gradey, JWill, Zach.
Where we might differ is I don’t think Yesufu is a real factor at all. He was only played this year as a last resort. So I’d like to get, say, Mosley in your list with the guard rotation.
Also if I’m not mistaken we only have one scholarship to give if only CB leaves. Mitch didn’t count this year so we were one over.
-
Are we still in play for Hunter? Or is that ship setting sail for UL?
-
Oh yes KU is very much in play for Hunter
-
@PharmacyHawk glad you’re back!

Louisville people are feelin pretty full of themselves - -feeling really confident they are getting Bates & Hunter both

Cam Martin was a red shirt, so at the moment he’s not gone.

@PharmacyHawk it took me back to our loss in 20 to Baylor. Everyone lost their . You appeared! The good news was I remembered the huge win at the end of the yr at Baylor. Then covid hit.🦠

Cam isn’t gone.

Yea there are only 2 spots open to be filled by transfers right now. I think if Hunter does come, Yes is gone. He would have needed a waiver anyways so I don’t think the deadline would have been meaningful for him regardless. That is just my speculation so don’t take it as gospel on the rules there.
Seems like we take a big guard and a true wing to me. Mosely seems in the bag. Hoping the other ends up being Council.

It would be rather interesting if we didn’t take Council, all things considered. Tough business lol.
