McDs results are in. Kinda as expected Flory is the only one for KU. Asked around and sounds like Philon would have had a shot if he wasn’t playing at Link. Playing there is probably good for him long term but they have two guys that just chuck away. Kease had no shot basically. Coaching friend said he’s basically a slightly less athletic Benny Mac. I’ll take that!
@MR11 said in Recruiting Notes:
Assuming Peterson/Sanon stay in '25, are there any other SF/wings we are looking at for next year? Will be down Kevin for sure and Furph is looking like a good bet to go pro this year if he keeps putting up numbers like last night.
Sanon is a lock to reclass but honestly I am not sure I want him. I’d think we need to portal in a 2/3 type. Not worried about Furphy leaving…yet… Depends on if he projects in the lottery.
Kentucky fans seem done with Justin Edwards, wonder if we would entertain that in the portal
-
Bossi said the Sanon handlers have unrealistic expectations for NIL.
-
Soon to be Top 5 player Khaman Maluach will visit for Baylor Game. Also considering Baylor, Duke (who he’s visited), Kentucky & G-League. We’ll see what shakes out there. Not super high currently on him being likely

Yeah sounds about right.
-
KU staff in for Sanon again today per Eric Bossi
-
Certainly being consistent here. Besides the NIL which hopefully can be worked out, he’s a good player to be keeping after. We have the funds to be right there

visited him today and trilly gets the long-awaited confirmation that he’s gonna reclass right after

Sanon in 2024 Peterson in 2025 can’t complain with that
-
If Case goes 4/4 on recruits this cycle I may never shut up about it.

We should be excited that we have developed another ace recruiter. T, Norm had their days when they were elite. Case seems to have ran with the mantle for sure. Very impressive work in a short amount of time
-
Can Case x’s and o’s coach?
-
-
Boy gotta say KU returning to the better recruiting ol days when we were right in the mix with big time talent. All this BS with the NCAA effected us in that area for awhile BUT -Coach & Staff seem to have gotten a new Boat -a speed boat lol and are hitting on all speeds. We are in on several players
Sonon - -Peterson - - -Williams , my question is if one commits, does it effect the others decision to commit ? - I think Williams is different position then Peterson and Sonon isn’t he ?
-
Sanon went for 40 again last night lol
-
@BShark Post visit bump
-
@rcjhdraft said in Recruiting Notes:
@BShark Post visit bump
Seems to go for 40+ every time we watch him lol.
Definitely a natural scorer.
-
@BShark next thing we’ll say is congrats on the head gig

If not, there are dozens of people on every fan forum who know more than any actual coach!

Vern email today telling everyone what I already said about Derik Queen :yawn:

Had an old friend tell me Goff has plugged most leaks where Bry and Vern don’t get a lot of solid intel anymore.

Oh boy. He can say whatever but development is on rocket fuel these days.

So have a question if anyone can help out. So Sanon is visiting next week, which is good, but from what I’ve been reading anyways and Hearing is that Darryn Peterson is very interested also, likes how KU runs their sets , & being an Adiaas School and all. So lets say Sanon visits, and wants to commit , We know Peterson isn’t committing anytime soon, going to take his visits UK , UNC , Ark , Ohio St or last I heard was his plan. - - - - So after Sanon visits , wants to commit do we go with Sanon or hold out and hope Peteson ends up picking us - -what do w do?
Unless and I don’t know for sure I think they are the same - -Aren’t they both wings ? - -or does Peterson play some point as I think he said he like to have the ball in his hands. - -So what do we do ?
-
Sounds more like Peterson will stay in 25, but they could easily play the 2/3 together.

boy wouldn’t that be sweet to get both

I am just kinda wondering with KU staff seein Sanon, then him coming in next weekend and sure sounds like he is going to re -classify just really wonder if we don’t end up with him, something might be moving fast I dunno. think were in heavy for sure. - -if it turns out we would have a really nice class in 24
-
@FarmerJayhawk said in Recruiting Notes:

The way I see it, add Sanon and a small guard 6’1-6’3’’ range that can play off the ball a bit/split duties with Dajuan.
Theoretical
Juan/transfer guard (Jordan Pope? I am begging)/Furph/KJ/Hunter
Bench/Reserves: Sanon/Marko/Flory/Philon/Kease/McDowell/Zach
Don’t think it would really change anything if Zach or McDowell transferred and you replace them with another warm body. Might be hard to convince Elmarko to come back but I’m not ready to give up on him if he wants to stay.
-
Khaman Malauch is an interesting one. Sounds like KU or Duke atm.
It is however very hard to see KU managing to roster Hunter, Flory and Malauch. I suspect something would give there and KU ends up with 2/3. Most likely of course being the two currently at KU/signed…

I hope we get him purely to spite the insufferable duke fans. Fit would be pretty weird if he’s getting sold on playing at the 4 but his movement is crazy
-
I would be floored if was us unforch
-
Yeah I mean if Hunter really is coming back there’s just no chance unfortunately. I’m not convinced we’d see anything close to his best basketball in 1 yr in College anyway
-
@BeddieKU23 especially with his brutal testing numbers. As Fran says, he’s two years away from being two years away.

I definitely didn’t expect him to be an incredible athlete, but it was way worse than I thought it would be.
-
Bout the only good Fran quote there is to use
-
Maluach to dook should be done shortly. Hunter becomes (continues to be…) the most important 2024 recruit.
-
Mister McNeeley opened his recruitment back up.
-
Lord please…
-
My man hit that decommit button right after that Woodson announcement

I saw the Trilly tweet. Instantly boosted my mood
-
They made us tap the sign
-
-
So we have a Chance ? - Again- -fingers crossed
-
Welp after seeing this I immediately went to Indiana board and yep all confirmed. – Sounds like MASS EXODUS. people saying they are screwed, with McNeely wanting out - -leaves them with ZERO COMMITS
Plus now all or the one’s on the board are all saying yep going to KU - -a couple mentioned maybe , maybe Florida seeing as how he is already down thee. -Some saying Coach Self has probably been in his ear for awhile
They are saying Trilly Donovan is saying he coming to KU, then Indiana fans say if Trilly says it-- - then book it, he is usually spot on.
IF he does end up coming could make a big difference number 11 Ranked player, some Indiana fans saying it would be fun to watch McNeely and Flory together. - -IF he does come and then hopefully/maybe Peterson would be sweet… Oh was gonn asak also - - how hard is it to get out of a NLI ? --hope they don’t try tying him up.
-
Well maybe w be in good shape possibly. I see there are already TWO Crystal ball picks for KU & McNeely.- - One is from Swain with a high confidence of 7- – & another from a Marylan guy also picking Mcneely to Ku with a 7 rating- -good start , hard not to get my hopes up
-
Interesting coaching runor that could shake up recruiting is Louisville. They are apparently making a very strong push for Scott Drew. Basically, the job is his if he wants it. Baylor seems like the better job at this point as though.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 think tang would be a back up?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 and probably the primary at Baylor if Drew leaves
