2021 Transfer Talk/List

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
Askew wasn’t good as a freshman. He needed to be a rotation piece instead of a starter.
ya kind of a bad situation. - -if you remember correctly Askew re-classified , so actually just this Season he should of really been a Senior in High School. - Kind of thrown to the wolves, big time pressure situation. , the the Kentucky fans was just eating his lunch during the Season - - -pouring it on .He just wasn’t ready to be a starter at a Big time P-5 school like that
-
Always a big risk in having guys reclass which is why I am glad we are keeping Cuffe in 22 to keep developing in HS.
-
Yep Askew never looked comfortable either. One thing Calimari always wants is athletic guards and Askew wasn’t that, he struggled shooting as well which just made it worse for him

Anyone wanna take bets that Calimari will soon be leaving Kentucky? I see him abandoning ship and coaching in the NBA very soon.
-
@Marco Someone in the NBA would have to want him… Coaches can’t recruit their way to success there.
Unless he gets offered a job he can go win a championship with I don’t see the NBA move happening for him. I do think that you may see him leave for “personal” or “health” reasons. At which point he will transition into the new Larry Brown.

Looks like we found the main pivot if we miss on TyTy…
The brand name of Kansas is also an intriguing opportunity for Yesufu.
“Being a blueblood, they’re gonna have a target on their back and people look to beat them,” said Yesufu. "Great program, run by a great coach. They’re always gonna get everybody’s best. They’re gonna play the best of the best in college basketball too.
“That would be a great opportunity.”
Yesufu mentioned upcoming virtual visits/ZOOM calls with Wisconsin, Kansas, USC, Georgia, and Arizona State. He has not narrowed down his list and isn’t sure of a decision timetable.
“I’m looking at the environment, the education (major in accounting), the entire coaching staff, the social life,” he said. “Just whatever school gives me the opportunity to be a better player and a better person.”

@BShark Would be interested to see how Bill would use Yesufu - since he is sort of a small SG more than a PG.
But the guy can flat out score the ball.

“Bill Self guard”
-
@BShark Yesufu is someone I really like and think he’d be a really nice fit in this back court. He can play lead guard or off the ball and would be some nice competition for Harris.
-
@BShark I still can’t get over that dunk against WSU. Probably the 2nd most memorable play of the tourney
-
Scored 26 against USC. our entire team had trouble scoring 26.

Agree with 3 yrs to play. I’m okay with the staff grabbing this kid if Washington is going elsewhere for whatever reason
-
Leading scorer for Iowa St, Rasir Bolton transferring. Going for that 3rd school club
-
Kadary Richmond ended up at Seton Hall.
-
Kim Aiken of Eastern Washington going to Arizona
-
Arkansas lands its 2nd impact guard, landing tiny but mighty Chris Lykes of Miami. Joins Au’Diese Toney of Pitt
-
@BeddieKU23 Honestly - would take.
-

Earl Timberlake to Memphis. Every recruitment for this one has been shady

Penny may need to change his name to Dollar.
-
Give Earl’s handlers credit, they know how to cash it in
-
Toumani Camara transfers to Dayton. Former Georgia player was perhaps their best player. What a name
-

Dollar Bill Self has the dollar moniker.

Oh, yes. I forgot. Trademark violation.
Perhaps “Schilling” would be a better name since that’s what he’ll be doing, despite the spelling discrepancy.
-
Latrell into the portal.
-
Good luck to him wherever he goes.
Are we getting another new shiny toy?
-
https://247sports.com/player/k-j-simpson-46079929/
Back on the market.
-
Issac McBride in the portal looool
-
@BShark where was he?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
@BShark where was he?
KU for 2 seconds, then Vanderbilt.
-
@BShark
silly I knew the KU!
-
@BShark did he play at Vanderbilt?
-
3 transfers and still a freshman? Hes definitely going for the guiness record
-
Nimari Burnett lands at Alabama, thought he was Illinois bound…
West Virginia picked up leading scorer from Old Dominion PG Malik Curry. With his entire backcourt testing the draft not surprised Huggy getting some insurance.
Indiana transfer Armaan Franklin lands at Virginia
Marreon Jackson transfers to Arizona St
-
@BeddieKU23 Man this is dizzying. Coaches must be going crazy.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 a little bit off the bench
-
Yep making a crazy year an even crazier offseason.
So far KU alone has 4 transfers
2 committed transfers
1 committed High School prospect.
More to come, all this in 2 weeks
-
-
Not sure Hamilton is what we need. Not a great shooter.
-
He’s a scorer, good size and likes to get to the line. Love his spin move as a lefty and he’s a playmaker. I’d take him in a heartbeat and see what improvement he can make as a consistent shooter. It’s not like he can’t make 3’s. Played on a really bad UNLV team and too much was on his shoulders there.
-

Yeah this is fair. I think we need TyTy to just commit elsewhere already so we can find out who the last piece will be. I’d be thrilled with Locke or the sniper from Cal.
-
Umude to Arkansas
-
Better fit, takes over the small ball 4 spot Justin Smith leaves
-
@BeddieKU23 Great get for them. Curious what happens if Musselman takes that AZ job though. Probably follows him there.
-
-
Seems like the final state of the roster ends with the addition of Christian Bishop and TyTy.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah, writing was on the wall when KU skipped doing a zoom call with him.
-
Auburn landed a transfer PG. Not sure their scholarship situation but it’s getting full over there.
-
@FarmerJayhawk According to this - 2 spots still open
-
Everyone has room for Tyty.
