2025 recruits - - -starting off well



  • Well starting off really well for 2025. - -We got our verbal today from Malachi Curvey , projected for linebacker here at KU - -has been playing some tight end but defense here. - -Pretty night pick up. Dad played for Iowa State, but said he wasn’t going to interfere with his sons recruitment. - He is a composite 4 * - but 247 says he is 3 * but very good player.

    Rated as the # 278 player in the nation according to the composite 3rd best out of Iowa–around Des Moines. - -One of the best things about it, we took him from other offers from – -Missouri - - Iowa State- - & K/State - no better Schools to win a recruitment – great pick up

    Add him to our QB commit - -David McComb - out of Oklahoma ranked as the # 453 Player-- -things starting off well



  • Hope we can hold on to these guys. It’s awful early.

    Me too bud, it’s always going to be a challenge. Long time to go before they officially commit. - -I think Mc Comb is pretty solid on his verbal, just a hunh but from what has beed reported , sounds like h is pretty committed.- - -Actually same with Curvey- - -after he made his last trip to Lawrence he shut his recruitment down , think he is pretty sold on the staff, visted multiple times. -we can hope.



  • Pick up a commit tonight. - -RB out of Texas , not ranked right now but he will be. - - john Kelly , picked Ku over 18 other offfers - - Arizona - -Duke - - -Texas Tech - - -Missouri , will be decent player for us

    Oh I could only hope this would transfer into bigger things lol , doubtful but we can hope



  • Well were still in the hunt. Linkon Cure Named his four official visits , he announced Texas A & m - --Oregon - - Ku- -& K/State ,were still in the mix. Doesn’t hurt anything that his older brother just joined the team as a Walk on.

    Gonna be a battle to the end I think , either gonna come down to KU/K State, I think K/State might have the lead just a little right now , but it over til the fat Lady sings and she isn’t even in the building right now.- # 2 TE rated, would be a massive land if it happens



  • Heard on the news tonight Linkon is now a 5 star.





  • Big weekend for the Staff.Got a pretty good size group coming in for visits this weekend. -I would love to get 3-4 commits out of this group , some big time targes coming in. --Give them Hell Coach, got some real studs coming in - -Let’s do this- - -ROCK CHALK



  • We got Juju Marks

    Can’t ask for better start hid ofer list was insane. - -over 30 offers , a 4 * recruit , offensive tackle some other schools o him was Florida , Alabama , //////Georgia , N Dame , USC , Michigan , Oklahoma- --Let’s do this



  • KU got a commitment from 3* TE Joeseph Skipworth out of Florida today. Ranked just outside the top 1000 nationally in the 24/7 Composite and the 53 ranked TE overall.



  • Dang , been a really good weekend for Coach L & the staff this weekend. Ku has picked up THREE commits today, and had rose up to the # 52 ranked class before we picked up our third commit today.

    We got a commit out of Garrett Martin a DE today – - A Commit from Brandon Schmeizie from Axtel Ks Today who is a ?Safety – and just like 15 minutes ago we got a commit from Kenyon Rivera a LB, who I like a lot who also had offers from Michigan - -Tennessee - -Texas - - & Teas A & M to name a few - - - Also got a commit from Adrain Holley Saturday - Coach L and the boys not playing - nd then again we got Bryce Foster to commit this weekend through the portal - -Been a HUGE Weekend for the guys - -ROCK CHALK



  • Counting Foster we’re at 6 commits this weekend is that good



  • Incredible weekend for Lance and the boys



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 recruits - - -starting off well:

    Lance and the guys putting in the work. Very Happy, Foster was a Big pickup & Rivera pretty sweet also



  • We are sitting at # 48 ranking s of this moment, I think we an end up a little higher yet



  • WOW - -another one. Swain says this gives us eleven commitments not counting Foster -and it’s our what fourth commit today and fifth with out foster for the weekend.

    This weekend ew got Martin - Holley - - - Schmeizie- — -Rivera - &— Hammond- - - then of Course Foster. --Count Foster and that is SIX commits to KU football this weekend - - GIVE THEM HELL LANCE, -Dam have I told you guys how much I love this staff , lol.

    Just within the last like twenty minutes we ot Hammond----Defensive Line, Lanc really getting after the Defensive side of the ball. We got Hamond over Arizona - --Utah – Houston - - Washington-- & Iowa State

    2 Linebackers - - - 2 Defensive Ends - - - A Safety - - -And Defensive Lineman- - -gotta love it. - -We took a big jump in National Rankings with Hammond , ew went from 48th - -to 41st-- not to bad - - We are right in the Middle of the Big 12 --wel 16 really lol – we are Sitting 8th right behind UCF - ROCK CHALK



  • Mercy , remember when we struggled to get ONE kid to commit, or kid that got no D-1 offers ?-- - - now look , we competing with on some of these kids going against the Michigan’s – Alabama-- -Texas and such, I mean sure I realize that times these othr schools might kin of back off but still to even be in the same Ballpark with these guys- Show how far we have come in three years, Lance and Staff has worked miracles with this past laughingstock – -You don’t see them laughing at KU anymore now do you – Just think if this staff knew how to recruit – I mean that was suppose to be Lance weakness , he couldn’t recruit , I think he hs done a prety decent job myself. – ROCK CHALK.

    Wondre what next weekend will bring in to us? - -Anyone know how many Scholi’s we have available ?



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 recruits - - -starting off well:

    Counting Foster we’re at 6 commits this weekend is that good

    Prety good weekend & Rivera & Hammond probably the cream this weekend.



  • For sure. Getting so many players on the defensive side of the ball is exciting, but Foster seems like a huge need for us at center.

    Veery , Very true. I wasn’t thinking 24 recruits for some reason today , even though he did commit this weekend & he is a massive pickup. I think our O-Line will be one of the better O-Lines in the Conference , which should be a real bonus for us in protecting Jalon & our backs. You give Daniels any protection are pretty good he gonna make a big play.He is pretty dam accurate throwing the dep ball down the middle and can run also pretty well I just have a feeling he gonna play a full year this being his last yr.–Ya Foster nickname Mountain–fits well 6’5 & 330. Thats a grown man and then some



  • Dang I just found out , didn’t realize that there is a kid that think just very easily could end up when all said and done , could very easily commit to KU , a Wide receive who’s name is Tate Nagy , which goes to show how bright I am lol.

    Turns out this Tate Nagy is the Son of Matt? Nagy , the Offensive Coordinator for the KC Chiefs, and use to be the head Coach of the Chicago ---- pretty cool , Tate used to be a QB for Blue Valley but came to camps, KU had him come to two & offered as he started running at Wide Receiver - KU liked what they saw an offered sa a Wide Receiver.



  • Well weekend off to good start. Got our first commit this weekend . Jackson Cook a WR 3 * announced today, was in for a mid week visit - - good start

    Was listening to Shay on the Jay Hawk Slant podcast and he said could be another big weekend, said still a lot of possibilities might be looking at seven more

    Possibilities could be - -Gabe Daniel’s- - Brock Heath - -Bryson Williams- -I know this isn’t spelt right, probably far from it but anyways Laruse Zamarono - -which is a 4 * down to either KU or Washington - future is bright my friend - hope this is another great weekend



  • got our 2nd commit of this Weekend-- - - - Darrion CJ Jones-- pretty good get. - -Rock Chalk



  • Got our third commit of the Weekend , the third Kansas kid of this Season — making in roads in State----- - Tate Nagy son of Matt Nagy’s KC Chiefs offensive coordinator – gotta love it - - were not done yet , w still got two mor that I know of they feel really good about. – -Watch for Gabe Daniels announcing on the 29th of June – and a bigger one on the 13th of July -really hope we can land this one Mulzz Toumkara–man I hope we land him – -ROCK CHALK



  • Hey Farmer if anyone knows I’m sure you would. - -What has happened to our 2025 recruiting - -seems like we hit a brick wall. -Started off well then nothing , I know we missed out on a few of WR that we thought we were good with but didn’t make it. – I know they were saying they was shooting for 18 commits BEFORE the Portal, we hit 13 and bam --just curious



  • @jayballer67 just missed on a couple guys. It’s some NIL, some staff turnover



  • KU has lost their top recruit JuJu Marks to Nebraska who flipped over the weekend.



  • @Texas-Hawk-10 Bummer, could 2-5 record be the reason



  • @AsadZ said in 2025 recruits - - -starting off well:

    @Texas-Hawk-10 Bummer, could 2-5 record be the reason

    OR Maybe - - just Maybe NIL could be the reason



  • Things are really picking up, specifically at WR



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 recruits - - -starting off well:

    Things are really picking up, specifically at WR

    Should have 2 more commits in the next week or so



  • @FarmerJayhawk looks like we got them , sweet weekend. --We flipped Hayes from Nebraska- -Then w got three CB’S- -for our 4 * out of Calif - -Jaden- -N - -Both WR’s got to love that, were gonna need em



  • Trevor is a redshirt.



  • Well we got Jeden Nickens 4 * WR out of California , great PU - -surprised KU offered him in Basketball though also - - Choose KU over Cal , Georgia , Okla St-& Texas A & M to name a few - -ranked as the 29th best overall WR in the class --w can use him



  • I guess I’m wrong about Trevor.



  • Nice to see we got a flip from Norte Dame- — -lanky/lean RB–think they might e trying to play him as WR , decent speed, hopefully works as w gonna need receives
