2022 Transfer Portal Thread

@FarmerJayhawk To have a consistent metaphor, the cat would now be out of the hat, but that would upset Dr. Seuss fans.

HI
2 to play. Was a lot more efficient last year than previously https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/jahmir-young-1.html
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think someone (we know who) leaves if we take another small guard. Maybe not but I was told there could be some interest in adding another small guard as well.
-
@BShark it makes sense. There’s really nobody right now who’s replacing Remy. More competition is good.

Agree. Small guard, big guard (Mosley plzzz), a 4 if JWill leaves. A beast 5 would be a luxury add and personally I don’t see it but some people on 247 and twitter really hope we do it.
-
Betting that we take in 3-4 transfers. Probably 1-2 will just be practice guys.

Just throwing this out into the ether - Kofi isn’t on a single mock draft anywhere. Obvious mutual interest. Drop a bag and make it happen.

@Kcmatt7 No more Dave in the way now! PRAYGE
-
Just looking at the list (https://evanmiya.com/), most of the top ranked guys don’t make a lot of sense. Shannon clearly does as a replacement for Och/Braun/Wilson. Gaines also might since he’s an absolute lockdown defender. Could be a nice backup to Juan if Bobby doesn’t quite step up like we hope. Landers Nolley makes some sense. Seems like he never found a role at Memphis and a fresh start under a good coach would do him some good. 2 to play. Norchad Omier might make sense as well if we play Zach at the 5. Interior scorer and rebounder extraordinaire. SBC player and defensive player of the year. Kentucky is on him now.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Kentucky will be taking Omier.

FSU’S Bagman followed Gates to Methzu

Gotta have bag men. SEC lost some strong ones recently. Still don’t think Missouri really starts competing there though…
-
Matthew-Alexander Moncrieffe in the portal from Oklahoma St
A few sparingly used Oklahoma players in the portal. Ashton Mason & Akol Mawein
-
Arkansas has been busy. Got the Makhi & Makhel Mitchell bro’s from Rhode Island (previously at Maryland) & Jalen Graham from Arizona St. Arkansas has 9 new guys coming in.
Alabama gets Ohio PG Mark Sears. Avg 19.6ppg as a Soph. Big time get for them.
-
@BeddieKU23 Mason is a KC kid. Didn’t think he was cut out for the Big 12 level.

He’d be player of the year under Self.
-
Portal approaching 1250. Less then 500 off last years record. Saw something that kids have until May 1st to declare transfer intentions? Anyone see that as well?
-
Drame Brothers now in the portal from St Peter’s. Makes 5 now. Wonder how many are going to Seton Hall?
-
@BeddieKU23 yes
-
@Kcmatt7 - IMHO, Kofi looked really slow getting up and down the court in the NCAAT, kinda like Doke his first year. Maybe he needs time in the KU program to lose weight and build muscle, as well as Doke-like skills. Diamond in the rough, type.

Not sure I"m telling this guy he needs to build muscle or lose weight. He probably does need to push himself cardio-wise. But trying to make him Doke isn’t going to happen. Doke was a FREAK. Kofi would be special in Bill’s system.

We should know more on the Kofi situation on the 24th. NBA deadline, and he can’t come back this time if he declares.
-
Brendan Huntley Hatfield in the portal from Tennessee. Former 5 star. Yes please
-
Oklahoma lands Wofford transfer Sam Goodwin.
Florida lands talented Belmont transfer Will Richard
-
@Kcmatt7 there goes our running.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 what?
-
Lol. We won’t be getting Cockburn but he would be awesome under Bill.
-
@Kcmatt7 kofi
-
@BShark why doesn’t he go pro?

Why did Udoka stay in college 4 years?
Some guys are awesome college players that have an aspect that limits their pro prospects*. I would happily take my chances with Kofi playing for Bill.
*Jalen as well for example
-
@FarmerJayhawk no thank you to nolley. Attitude problem.
-
Texas Tech lands Soph. Gardner Webb Sniper D’Maurian Williams. Averaged 14.5 ppg, 4.6 boards while shooting 39% from 3 on 201 attempts. Williams was one of 35 players in the nation to shoot better then 39% from 3 on 200+ attempts. Looks like a big addition.
-
Portal will hit 1300 soon.

Shooting was a major issue for that TTu team too
-
Yeah Williams will help there, 53% of his made shots this season from 3. He’s 6’5 too so gives them another interchangeable piece
-
Look for movement to start with KU at the end of the week. Partying is done, player exit meetings coming up.
-
-
Big loss for Oklahoma as Elijah Harkless hits the portal.
-
Looks like Mike Miles has left the door open for returning to College/TCU. He does want to stay in the draft but smart to keep options open without guarantee. Will be a big decision for TCU

I really like the guy. I don’t understand why he would want to go back to TCU (other than the love of the school). Really think it would benefit him to go to a place that gets him more eyes and asks him to do things not as THE primary scorer.
His advanced stats are just awful if we are being honest. But I really blame that on him HAVING to take some (a lot) of terrible shots. I’d love to see him play somewhere that let’s him run and gets him more open looks. Even if it isn’t KU, I just think the guy could really show out somewhere else.
-
Yeah Miles is really good and we saw how well he played up against KU 3 times. He definitely had to shoulder a large role, I think he’s a scoring guard in the mold of Frank Mason. Their games have some similarity. He’d look great in Crimson and Blue

Thinking about possibly of hearing about the KU news at the end of the week - - transfers

@BShark don’t want to see them go. Will miss them, family
-
Guard Joe Touissant transfer from Iowa has committed to West Virginia
-
@BeddieKU23 sticky hands. terrible shooter.
Yep that is a WVU player.
-
Looks like Texas Tech may crush the portal again. Their insider feels they may be the favorite to land C Fardaws Aimaq. They are also likely to get a visit from Indiana St guard Tyreke Key (Tennessee is also involved). Kevin Obanor is also heavily considering returning another year.
-
He’s an athlete for his size but yeah nothing else sticks out about him
