Brandon Ingram Decision
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That’s how most non KU fans feel about us. Arrogant, Blue-Bloods, Snobs.
Guess that’s what happens when you’re the second winningest (?) program in the history of the Universe. I scoff at all those other peon colleges…
-
Maybe this helps? Can you post this on his FB?
-
“when I think of Duke I think of the word entitled. That’s how I think they feel. I always thought they looked alike too.”
You are not alone.
Did you see the 30 for 30 “I hate Laettner!”?
It shows why everyone that doesn’t go to Duke hates them.
-
Looking Better! Do our recruits realize they get free trips to the KU Med Center Dermatology Clinic?!
-
“Not to be a negator on Bad Ball, but how about we run a more diverse offense and actually vary our screening patterns and our personnel placement? And perhaps … just perhaps … work a touch harder to get those three ball looks? These are not complex adjustments. Our current offense can easily be adjusted to make it more dynamic.”
So are you saying we should run a better offense so we don’t have to pressure our defense to keep our opponents below 50 ppg in order to win?
-
@drgnslayr I will probably get blocked for that but what the heck! I posted it to his wall…
-
All that’s on Ingram’s twitter is dook this and dook that. Doesn’t look good. He is not getting enough love from KU fans. I am starting to think he’s Dook bound. The only thing I can say is he IS following the entire KU team. But our fans really need to step it up!
-
@drgnslayr that wasn’t nice! They’re young men!
-
…and while we are at it, might as well add Raiders-like black unis?
-
Talk about Darnell Valentine-like thunder thighs, is she a weightlifter?..I guess you would have to be to lifts those huge whatchamacallits…
-
@JayHawkFanToo I work at Chevrolet and she is “Like a rock” or a brick shit house.
-
“But our fans really need to step it up!”
I tried to friend him but it says he has reached the maximum on FB.
-
So i’m doing a little reading between the lines here but I think Ingram told K in his first in-home visit that his team was looking a bit thin, especially at point, and was his reason for not committing there. K says let me see what I can do and lets meet again before you decide. Then K convinces a HS junior PG to reclassify and join the team and is hoping that will fix the problem.
What scares me is that Ingram said in the special on ESPNU tonight that the move does make a big difference. But for real, how often does a true freshmen run a team well at PG? Its very rare. Now Duke thinks they will have what should be a HS-senior running their team? Lol, come on man. I’m hoping he is smart enough to see how desperate of a move this is. Would he rather go to Duke where they have a HS-senior running their team or KU where they have an experienced collegiate Junior running the point?
Crossing my fingers and hoping Ingram doesn’t fall victim to the smoke and mirror show by K. Him and Cheick would make KU a definite championship contender next year if they commit.
-
Also, just saw on twitter:
“Jeff Goodman @GoodmanESPN St. John’s freshman center Adonis De La Rosa is transferring – per school.”
He is a 7’-0" 322-lb three star center. Does it seem like to anyone else too like the storm may be trying to carve out some more minutes for Diallo???
-
@RockkChalkk crud! Haven’t they signed a few?
-
Also, Brandon Sampson that had committed re-opened his recruiting after Lavin left and now he is going to LSU. If they lose Diallo it will be a pretty rocky start for Mullins.
-
@Statmachine Illegal…DAAAAAAAAAANG
-
@drgnslayr Even better.
-
Good grief…Coach K must really be worried about Ingram or just has a down right man crush on the kid. In fact, it appears he’s stalking Ingram. Whatever is happening, Coach K has taken an uncharacteristic approach to get Ingram.
I love it, because Ingram has either indicated that he’s going to another Carolina school or out of state. Either way, it’s nice to watch Coach K panick like its the last few minutes of a championship game and he’s down 1-2 pts. Let’s see if he nails the trey for the win.
I’ll puke if that rat pulls down Jeter, Thornton, and Ingram at the last minute.
-
@truehawk93 saw a pic, Ingram didn’t look happy!
-
@Statmachine I think Carlton Bragg is our best recruiter. He’s in Ingram’s ear more than Rat Face ever will. I hope Bragg can pull him in from Rat Face’s influence. But you have to love the fact that he hasn’t committed to Dook already. I think if he was going to Dook or UNC, he would commit already.
Why?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 What pic? Do you have a link?
If Jeff Capel is recruiting Ingram for Coach K…I will puke twice if they pull him into Cameron. I can’t believe Capel can out recruit Self and Roberts…No way in hell. Maybe Capel did start out recruiting him. Maybe Capel visited him this last weekend. Maybe Coach K realized he was sending a boy to do a man’s job. Capel is a sorry excuse for a coach. The best player he got lucky with at OU was Blake Griffin and that was because he was in Oklahoma about 15-20 miles North of Norman. Jeff Capel can’t recruit his way out of a room full of top recruits. He’s terrible and a failure as a head coach. He tucked tail and ran back to his daddy Rat Face in Durham. Capels getting hugs and kisses since that return.
If Dook thinks Capel is Rat’s successor, I’ll laugh my head off with each loss Dook sustains. Capel will run the program into the ground. It will be a lot like UNC before they finally pulled Roy from KU. I remember when Matt Doherty tried to coach UNC, it wasn’t pretty.
(http://www.forbes.com/sites/monteburke/2012/03/15/the-rise-and-fall-and-fall-again-of-matt-doherty/) OUCH
Yeah, yeah…In 1992 he became an assistant for Roy Williams at Kansas, two men who would cross paths a decade later under much different circumstances.
link text I’m warning you now, don’t click the next coach after Capel.
Funny when this overpaid coach thing was posted, it was before Calipari won it in 2012. It shows Self, Donovan, and Calipari as overpaid. Self got another F4 in 2012 and a NC game too. All the other coaches had no F4s and no NCs.
-
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He looks uncomfortable. Look at the number of Dook coaches in that pic. Rat Face has his arm around Ingram’s dad. GOOD Grief what a tool. Coach K is terribly desperate and Ingram needs to see right through it.
I remember when Self went to see Okafor and he posted a lot of stuff about Self and his dad. Self even took a Selfie with Okafor’s dad. But look where he ended. Rat Face didn’t hit Okafor and Jones this hard at all. Why? Because he had them at some point. He’s got Ingram in a trap, not a full-court press. You step through the trap and you will get fouled. In fact, Jones recruited Okafor to Dook with all that packaged deal stuff. Now, it’s KU’s turn. Bragg and Ingram need to recruit as a package deal. Come on Bragg, bring Ingram to the Phog.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Is that Elton Brand closest to the camera by Ingram?
It sure is…Dang what is Coach K doing? Bringing all past Dookies to recruit Ingram. Pretty sad.
Jon Scheyer looks like a dork.
-
@truehawk93 the pic creeps me out!!
-
Maybe this will make you feel better…
I saw other pics and visits. Ingram had his arm around the other coaches. But this was early in October. Things have changed drastically.
Someone needs to remind Brandon and his dad that’s “Eleven” rings now.
-
Don’t get too sick or barf too much…
Poor NCSt…It never got off to a good start. Remember, KU came in a little late for Ingram. I think all things considered, KU has made up the most ground after being so late to the party.
The pic of the dookies and Ingrams is funny. Both Brandon and his dad don’t look too confident. They have a very apprehensive look that doesn’t give a good indication of their intentions. Again, all the KU stuff is too early to give any indication of KU’s chances. Hopefully Bragg is reminding him that we will be playing a lot of ball this Summer.
-
He looks best w/our group! Just saying!! adidas shirt too.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 LOL…it’s all about the SHOES.
-
I am pretty sure UNC is out for Ingram after calling him a LIAR
-
@Statmachine what?
-
UNC spokesperson said they have not received a notice of allegations. Brandon Ingram saying UNC received notice from NCAA on April 17

Breaking: UNC spokesperson calls Brandon Ingram a liar
-
-
@Statmachine thx! Good sign?
-
I think Dook is in the lead for Ingrams services BUT if Diallo signs with KU before monday it could be just enough to put us in the lead. KU will return its 3 leading scorers Ellis, Mason, and Selden. Imagine a front court of Diallo, Ellis, and Bragg with a back court of Mason, Selden, Ingram, Svi, Greene, and Graham. That’s big time! Its 9 guys that I feel comfortable that we do not drop in production when we sub.
-
No question that Ingram is Duke’s #1and only target and they sure are putting on the full court press with all the heavyweights. They have now a “potential” replacement for Tyus Jones and with Ingram they are back to having a championship caliber team; without him they fall behind UNC and UVa in the ACC.

Stay positive. I replied to his tweet with this lol @B_Ingram13 Move away from the in state pressure and go to KU. You will get your own nutritionist and a weight trainer to get you ready! and https://instagram.com/p/1yldRXKiEQ/

The UNC liar thing was bizarre. Roy is having an in home? Awkward
Biancardi is a fool. I can’t wait for Ingram to commit to KU. They all have him going anywhere but KU. They even think he’ll go to UK before KU. UK is loaded at the 3. They even think Ingram will go UK if they get Brown. They pretty much guarantee him to Puke.
Basically Ingram will go anywhere but KU. One expert even said Ingram would compete with Svi at the 3 with Green questionable.
Ingram compete with Svi? Svi is good and will be great but there’s no comparison. Ingram may be close to Wiggins talent. I hope Ingram gets a gut full of Wiggins.
Brandon…talk to the NBA Rookie of the year and he’ll tell you why KU?
-
Biancardi has a dead simple job… he just writes “will stay close to home” on all the unknown recruits.
-
Are UNC fans getting ready for a new coach? This post seems to indicate that Coach Williams stay at UNC might not last long, particularly if any of the allegations stick…
-
@JayHawkFanToo that doesn’t sound good for their program!
-
If even part of the allegations stick. the “death penalty” is not that far fetched. Looks like Coach Williams is in a tough spot.
-
I guess Ingram doesn’t want to take African and Afro-American Studies at UNC and defiantly doesn’t want to take Swahili classes where he will NOT learn to speak ONE word in Swahili. I guess he doesn’t want to have to lie about it like UNC is doing right now and smearing Ingram’s name in it. If I were Ingram’s parents and ol Roy was Lying about what he told my child to cover his ass I would be furious. I would record the conversation tonight when Roy trying to backtrack and hand it to the media.

Uncommitted 5-Star SF Brandon Ingram Says He Was Told UNC Received NCAA Allegations On April 17
I wonder who in the world told Brandon this? I think a rat face blue devil?
-
Joey Powell @Joey_Powell Roy taking Brandon Ingram some eastern NC BBQ? Yeah, maybe #UNC ain’t out of this thing yet! #TomatoBasedSauceIsGarbage
Statmachine @calanr · 47s47 seconds ago
@Joey_Powell I doubt Ingram wants to take Afro-American Studies and defiantly doesn’t want to take Swahili BUT he will take the BBQ. LOL
-
You might have the correct answer and it has a different shade of Blue. Rat face ratting on Roy…
-
he’s going to Duke…
-
@BeddieKU23 Interesting comment…It’s not over till it’s over. I went and reviewed his @B_Ingram13 and found some interesting comments by people who may know him a bit, but then again maybe not. I have a slight feeling he just might commit to KU. I may be wrong. It won’t be the first or last time either. But all interesting and some pro-KU posts too:
Momma Murphy @MomofBallers In all seriousness, Brandon needs to go where it’s best for HIM!! We will support him wherever he goes. @B_Ingram13 #BISupporter
Davin K Gutierres @dkg_hilife · Apr 21
@MomofBallers Agreed but the coaches at UNC & Duke wont let him leave the state. The fans would go nuts if he left the state…lol.Davin K Gutierres @dkg_hilife · Apr 21
@MomofBallers Good Point but you also want to leave the nest & see what else is out there.Momma Murphy @MomofBallers · Apr 21
@dkg_hilife True! I guess we’ll find out on Monday. I know this decision won’t come lightly & he knows what will feel like home.M Allen @crimsonblu22 · Apr 21
@MomofBallers @B_Ingram13 I can only tell u that he will be loved at KU! FOE! You will love it there, promise️!Momma Murphy @MomofBallers · Apr 21
@pquaife He is making a big decision. He & his family know any front runners. If KU is it, then I will support him, just like I do DTae!Patrick Quaife @pquaife · Apr 21
@MomofBallers Totally understand, didn’t mean harm. You’re awesome, enjoy your tweets. & that’s sweet about Graham, he’s going to be great!Momma Murphy @MomofBallers · Apr 21
@pquaife No harm done! DTae is awesome! Always knew he had it in him. KU was a great move for him.The “Liar” thing is a dual killer for both programs. IF another recruiting rep from say Duke made this claim, leaving Ingram with the confidence that it was all right to use that in an interview, then we have a Carolina dilemma. On one hand, if say Coach K, Capel or Scheyer said this to him only to be let down, how can Ingram trust Duke? How could a player trust a coaching staff that gives you false information?
Then you have UNC who was the direct object of that “Lie” is now in an odd situation with these allegations. They are defending and in full damage control. Ingram has got to be reviewing the whole mess and thinking of just getting out from under the circumstances. If he goes to Duke after making that comment, it looks really bad. If he goes to UNC with any sanctions, he’s shooting himself in the foot. It presents a young man that is extremely impressionable with a serious decision. A decision that became unusually difficult. This might just be in KU’s favor when it’s all said and done. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if he stays and goes to either Carolina program.
