The DE should decide very soon. Like tomorrow soon. KU or Buffalo, I think KU leads.

They do not lead. Yeesh.

Well all I can hope is that he sees an easier path to the field at Buffalo than KU. At least that is what Iām going to tell myself.

Ok , looking for your insight again Farmer Just read from TOS and was posted by Swain like 3 hrs ago , I donāt reconize the name but not sure if he is a defection to the portal or ONE we are getting from it. Hope you could help.
Kids name is Johnqual Lewis a CB from Hialeiah Flordia - -He is a JR - so do you know - is he a departure - -OR an Arrival ? - Swain posted and it just showed him and a KU decal so not sure HELP
-
Lewis was a backup safety. He got passed by freshmen (White-Schultz and Burroughs) last year so he gone

ok buddy appreciate it like always. - I knew I had never heard of him - but that doesnāt mean anything. so that makes 8 players now
-
Ok , so sitting here just wondering and canāt come up with answers ( Farmer ) I need to hear what your thinking, as your pretty in touch seem to be so buddy , what the hell is going on with our recruitment ? Iām just not seeing or hearing ANYTHING on possibles out of the portal. What gives bud , whatās your train of thought ?
Does it just boil down to lack of Wās on the field ? - I have heard one thing and it has to do with in State kids - -that since Schoonie left that the staff just dropped the ball and didnāt stay on certain kids - -any truth t that buddy? - Is it the lack of NILāS ? - kind of frustrating - I know if kids going in portal they have to be in by the 1st right ? - -Have you heard of anyone we sitting good with ?
I DID see where we might be in better shape for a couple of in state kids - -but they are - -24 recruits -we need some help , depth now. - - Heard we have a kid right hee in Topeka that they think who will be the # 1 ranked recruit in the State of Kansas in 24 - -BJ Canady- -likes KU been to Lawrence multiple times and is a friend of KY Thomas - see now this is a kid w need to hunt like a dog step on him - -stay on him prove sincere intrest lock him up - we have JUST GOT TO wrap these kind of kids up - - In State.
Then another 24 recruit Think his name is Jayshawn Ross - -heard we are in pretty good with him to - he is a edge. - got to land guys like these two .The one down fall that I had heard about Coach L and staff - - just not good recruiters - -once kids are there at KU then they develop with them well but itās getting them there - - What are you hearing Farmer ? ā Any kind of hope for recutis coming in?

@jayballer67 in-state recruiting in 2023 will pretty much be a bust. As far as portal guys go, weāre touching base with so many itās hard to keep track. I do know two JuCo safeties will visit next weekend, and we had a WR from Minnesota in for a visit last weekend. Havenāt heard how much of a chance we have with them, but I do know theyāre casting a very wide net in the portal.
2024 is probably going to be the staffās make or break season on the trail. Itās another very strong local class and 2023 is scheduled to be the breakout on the field. Canady is certainly one to follow over the next 18 months.

Thanks for that. I had heard at one point must of been hot air - I had heard at one time they thought we was doing really good in the 2023 class. - What Happened ? did the staff just drop the ball at ol boy left ?

Long story, but the very very short version is Schoonover developed lots of those relationships then Lance basically fired him.
Could be some good 2022 news comingā¦

cool, I had heard hey were looking to try and land a safeth - Why not this one - would be fine with me
-
See where we got a commitment from a WR from the portal from Minnesota, him and Ky was in the same recruiting class 6ā0 Douglas Emillen - had I think said like 23 offers - Kentucky , - - LSU - - & Miami to name some - - -Welcome aboard.
Also read I gues have a legit shot a Ol from the portal said he was high on KU - -Spencer Lovell from Arizona St 6ā6 and 325 lbs - -we can always use the big uglies for sure/ depth
-
Landed the starting RT from Buffalo! Will likely be a swing interior guy for us. 3 to play.
-
Also this class is far from done. With the 25 + 7 cap going the way of the dodo we may be looking at 5+ more commits by the time fall camp rolls around.

Looks like the NCAA will do away with the cap for at least a year or two to deal with all the turnover and covid year stuff. TBD if they bring it back once all this calms down.
-
Well see we got commitment from a DE. - -Davion Westmoreland 6.3 240- - Seems like good size decent size for DE - out of Hutch Juco - - 11.5 TFLāS - -& 6.5 Sacks - -not sneezing at that. 3 yrs of eligibility and a red shirt. - -Famer ? - - thoughts ? decent or no ?
Also Farmer - - the 3 big portal studs on campus for visit now. - - Bunkley - Shelton from Arizona State - - - Grant from Purdue ( would love to land him ) - -& Kaine Williams from Alabama - -Again Farmer thoughts ? - - Do we have any shot of any of these three ?
-
Westmoreland is up to 260+ now, so heāll play the SDE spot opposite Phelps. I think heās solid depth, but not starter material this year or maybe even next.
I think we have the best shot at Grant. Have the feeling Bunkley-Shelton goes to OU and Williams Nebraska. But itās really good we got those dudes to all visit. Gives us a punchers chance
-
This seems good.

Kaine Williams off the board to the corn. Still have a shot at Grant. Some commitments should come this week

Really feels like LL doing a good job in the transfer portal, but I donāt follow enough other teams to know.

I know Iāve said this before but gonna say it again. I think without a doubt that KU has finally gotten THE Coach w have needed for so long. - Itās just that every time I listen to the guy, just seems so self confident an really has THAT plan that we need making sure along the line that we as fans realize we have a long way to go - -BUT we are getting better.
The guy just ooozes class , I think he has a very competent staff and all seem very sincere in their job and how they are handling the guys and have these guys that we CAN be a very competitive team. They have these guys believing in their selves and that right there is half the battle.
I dunno maybe Iām just so starved for a respectable team that Iām grasping at straws - -just seems to me that there is THAT LIGHT that has been absent for such a very long time and Coach L has THAT LIGHT in his hand. - -maybe just me but thatās my take. I for one am stoked

He had me at 2 national championships
-
Well coming to the realization ā no matter who the Coach is, bottom line is in recruiting for us at this point boils down to wins/on field performance / .Ku has done decent in recruiting mainly portal but now were kinda caught between a rock and a hard spot.
Thing is itās going to come down to wins and progress to be able to attract more players in recruiting Coach has done well , but now we have to show, get some interest or more interest to these kids that might be on the ledge trying to decide between KU & another school on where they are going to land .Be even more competitive.
We have lost more then our share of in state players to that other school / Iowa State- -w have to make in roads gets these schools respect back. Our previous staffs have really damaged our relationships with a lot of in state schools and recruits - Time to take that next step
-
I could not be a bigger fan of this offer. Could be done sooner rather than later. Iāve been pushing for it some, since full disclosure I have some personal involvement with Louisianaās football program. McCaskill is a very good player (2nd team all Sun Belt) and an even better kid. Would immediately upgrade the locker room and product on the field. https://twitter.com/bhadda/status/1536865763008688128?s=21&t=Jz3uJ87i0LukY6uO9o10hg
