2024 Recruiting
-
Where is Diallo? He’s a true case that proves to young players that staying in college awhile really, really helps to seal your nba future. He was so lost and it was so sad! He was also so talented but just raw! Cliffs mom really screwed him over. Just like Billy’s mom.
-
Give me Jalil Bethea and I’ll be good to go. -Ranked # 20 by 247 - -& ranked 16th by Rivals. In rivals seen one future cast and it was for KU @ 48 % would be nice to be able to pull him in
-
@Crimsonorblue22 - Diallo is apparently playing pro ball in Mali.
-
Read an article and saw that Vyctorius Miller is planning on taking an official visit to KU - no specific date but chances are in October some time. Has already visited un offically.
Other Schools involved is LSU - -Gonz - - & USC . Other visitors planning on visiting during off Season are : - -Jalil Bethea , Billy Richmond , Jared Harris , & Emmanuel Stephen
-
Why is Cooper Flagg wasting his time coming here to visit ? - - - Why is our staff wasting their time entertaining Coope Flagg for a visit ? - -We all know he is a 100 % cinch for Duke.
I know he wants to get his free visits but Damm come on man you know, w know you not coming here
-
@jayballer67 Here we go again. No, us fans don’t know anything for certain what these kids are thinking. Visiting to see what KU is all about certainly can’t hurt if he is someone that coach believes would make our team better.
-
@jayballer67 do we though
-
Flory was a duke, then auburn lock.
️
-
Last person I was absolutely sure would go to KU was Mitch.

lol, well maybe a lil truth to what you say, after the Flory deal and then what was the kids name everyone thought was a sure thing coming here and where he land? - -Indiana wasn’t it ? - so true never say never BUT IF i was a guy that bet --I would take that bet all day long that he does not end up here compared to saying he is a Duke lock
-
A lot can change in a year…
-
To me, it’s not so bad if top recruits feel like they have to visit Kansas or they might be missing out, even if they really want to go somewhere else. A program with mystique has an X-factor.

-
We shall have to see about Flagg, All I know is he keeps getting more predictions for Duke - -They all can’t be wrong can they ? - That many ?

I’m optimistic here and think he’s a bigger need then Flory. I still think Miami is a factor relationship wise, but their NIL is going belly up so wonder the impact there. Cuse surprises as a contender. Just don’t see a top recruit going to a place where a legend retires and you have no clue what future your walking into (rebuild). Hoping Bill again is the deciding factor in the recruitment

I think w are in pretty decent shape, but just never know with kids, Hope Coach can do it again. would be a sweet duo Flory and Bethea

5* Wing Liam McNeeley is visiting Kansas Sept 1-3
-
Was watching the 247 weekly Basketball recruiting this Morning and they were saying - -well Eric Bossi was saying not to Count the Jay Hawks out of the Cooper Flagg recruitment just yet, saying he thought it was kinda odd for the other Visits if Cooper was all in on Duke/ Duke lock. Thinks KU will have him on Campus the weekend of Late Night But he will be a Duke for their verson of late night after the KU visit. w
Eric said Coach Self is all in on Flagg and said we have seen what happens when Coach is like that. - -We shall see.
Finkelstein also mentioned that KU was actively looking for another frontliner/big man and was talking about Queen saying don’t count them out there either as Queen is athletic enough he could play with another big.
Talked about how KU might be considered the leade for Jahlil B, but think it’s still wide open

The Billy Eugene Self Revenge Tour is off to a BLAZING start

Struggling to remember the last time we had 3 top 15 recruits on campus at once that WASN’T late night.
-
Welcome to the best program and best coach in college basketball.
(Note: We all knew this, but now it’s becoming widely accepted in all regions of the country. Plus, Bill Self has been at KU since these kids were born, so they haven’t seen KU lose many games and recently they’ve seen some BIG wins.)
-
bill the greatest salesman in the world if he convinces queen to come on with flory already on board. the rationalizations from the other fanbases in the recruitment would be incredible
-
Boy our 2024 recruiting really ramping up. – - THREE big time over Laor ay weekend - Bethea - -McNeely - - & Queen. - - -Emanual coming in on the 5th of Sept - - Billy Richmond on October 6th - -& then Cooper Flagg for ate night.
I think Jeremy has a big part in this, think he is really going to help, doing nice work. - As far as possible’s I think we have a very legit shot a Bethea ,- -might be able to snare McNeely - -wouldn’t mind Queen at all, But think that’s a reach with Flory commit. Still have serious doubts about the possibility of Flagg landing here

“Don’t stop me now” - Bill Self

Rutgers staff is sweating.
Rutgers, Maryland, Miami, Duke. Rampaaaaaage

2006 Bill is back. Billy five stars.
-
Harper AND Bethea?
-
-
Ha , - -Ha - Ha - -and the plot thickens.- - - Bill rollin. - - that is my guess too , Bethea AND Haper possibly, taking harper right out from under their noses.
Kentucky board jumped on this quick. - Some Kentucky insider something like that I see him there a lot name Trilly Donavon tweeted, Self up to his shit again lol - - People saying GOD no please not Flagg lol
-
I know this kid may not be top priority But from what I hear is that Coach could very well be looking for another big to go with Flory - - -Reading see that Emmanual Stephen a Seven Footer is coming in for late night , probably a project but we know how Coach seems to develop Big’s if we lose out on some this would work really good size -excellent rim protector averaged 2.8 last year and averaged 3.8 in the Peach jam with a high of 12 in one game. -have to see how this al turns out. - -Seems like Coach is getting plenty of possibilities
-
top 40 guard Austin Swartz is probably committing to Miami. bringing this up since they’re competition for bethea

Just don’t understand anything about that. Cuse isn’t winning anything anytime soon. Weird

Nothing is done until the blood dries but KU’s absolutely in the pole position for Bathea
-
-
@BeddieKU23 I would imagine that some hefty NIL dollars were allocated to get the new coach started off okay. But just a hunch on my part.
-
Not sure how much it will matter but McNeeley really enjoyed the visit. Queen on the other hand didn’t really seem to enjoy it or mesh with the current/former players.
There is a family member in our corner with McNeeley as well.

McNeeley would be nice. Queen is a good player but if we’re taking a second big to flory I’d probably prefer Stephen as I think he’s a good long term investment. Queen is better now but give me the defender to learn behind Flory.

No malcontents!

Don’t feel very much traction with Harper. - He did not make a trip like they wanted with the other recruits this weekend. - - He was with his brother & Dad at the Rutgers football game.
They really did it up for him , HELL they even had the BIG commissioner there greeting him , with the Caption the Big didn’t want to lose stars to the Big 12.
They wheeled him up in a golf cart with his father and the whole Stadium went in to a full chant of we want Dylan - - We want Dylan.
I think he is pretty locked in to Rutger’s , his teammate going to play there ACE , - just don’t see him ending up here. We will be fine
-
seems like anyone else other than bethea would be a pleasant surprise. And a second big
-
I like the strategy Bill is using in this class given how down it is. Get 2/3 high end talents and then you can portal for more needs.
I also see the other big Stephen that’s visiting as an intriguing option as a development piece. Not sure with his recent offers from Baylor/Michigan/Arizona whether he’d be okay being the 2nd big in a class…
