2022 Transfer Portal Thread
-
Davis would be a homerun get. Proven 4 year player at multiple places (he already had Big-12 experience). Can’t imagine anyone else has a bigger and better pitch then we got right now. I would be surprised if we weren’t in this.
-
KU will have 3 enter the portal.
-
@BShark cuffe, Martin and
-
Yes or Bobby?

Bobby isn’t going anywhere.
-
I’ll post more after announcements. Early next week most likely.
-
Cuffe cam and yes would be my guess

2 out of 3 ain’t bad (assuming my intel is correct).
I think in most cases a kid in Joe’s situation would transfer but he genuinely seems to love it here and doesn’t mind the bench role.
-
I suspect we will have 2 waves of exits. My guess… 2 at a time. 4 total. Just a hunch. I figure my hunches are right about 40% of the time. lol
And I don’t expect we will fill our scholarship card because Self sees more value that way unless he sees a potential problem with a player.

4 counting going pro early? I’d go 4-5 for sure in that case. I think getting one of CB/JWill back would be a big win.
-
My vibe is 4 in the transfer portal alone. I imagine Self has a lot of talent to consider in the portal and can better build a lineup to make us compete for another title next year.
I definitely feel we will snag at least one breathtaking catch like we did last year with Remy.

@BShark any young man that loves his school and puts the team first is a keeper in my eyes. Hope Joe sticks around

Agree.
At worst a great practice player.
-
Cam really does NOT want to leave. This could get interesting…
-
The change in transfer rules has really changed my feeling about departures. We can afford to lose guys like KJ more now. It makes it easier to just wish him the absolute best if he leaves, because if he becomes a starter and a stud somewhere else then he chose wisely. Id love to see him 4 years in crimson and blue, but Id also love to see him become a beast at a place where he gets extended run.

Needs for next year: shooting
Not sure any of KU’s rumored portal departures fit that role. So I’d guess Self takes on two guardish shooters at least.
One to start, one off the bench.

In my dreams: Davis and Mosley.

The Rumpers are in a tizzy- they think Drew Timme wants to transfer to "Tucky. They’re already proclaiming they’ll win the NC next year:

I imagine Yesufu enters the portal soon. He loves it at KU, and can play at this level, but he’s not going to get the chance to really show what he can do. If he did hit the portal, I think there would be a ton of schools interested. He would be an immediate upgrade for most programs either as a starter or first man off the bench.
The portal is really about finding the right fit. Guys come in wanting to be one type of player, but end up not getting that opportunity, or getting bypassed, or hurt, or struggling on the court or academically, and the portal gives them a chance for a reset. I’m glad it exists, honestly. I had a friend (non-athlete) that went to three different schools before he found the right one, graduated, and moved into a good career. I think athletes having that same chance is a great thing, and makes coaches accountable for the things they promise.

Kendric Davis on an official to Memphis right now…

Leaky Black going back to UNC

Makes sense, where else would he go.
-
Approaching his 300th yr there

Based on Self’s comments at the banquet, Bobby and KJ are bedrock guys. He won’t do anything that jeopardizes them.
Based on what I saw this year, Yesufu is a legitimate asset to the team. But I can also see where there aren’t enough chairs when the music stops. His talent is legit and he deserves to be able to show his abilities. Would hate to see him go, but that could happen.
Listening to the banquet, Self just seems to have a different relationship with the transfers compared to the recruits. He didn’t need to play head games with Remy any more (he did all season and he won — see the results), but just couldn’t help himself. I’m glad Remy got MOP of Midwest Region. He deserved some hardware for his contribution. I’m hopeful we’re doing something for JCL as well. By all accounts, he was a stabilizing, mature force on the team (and a sharpshooter amongst a group of sharpshooters). I think Yesufu was also a mature force on the team behind the scenes. These guys definitely deserve recognition for contributions that are off the court, in the locker room and beyond.
-
@bskeet He wouldn’t boot KJ, a complete non-issue in that regard. KJ’s mom however…
-
@BShark Ahhh. Too bad. I wish him and the family the best. Hopefully they can rest easy that he is in a good place and needs the space to learn how to take care of himself.
-
Think were great for all involved with JCL btw. Much bigger than basketball on that one.
-
@BShark I think it’s been said but JCL is sticking around.
-
It sounded like that. Self was not specific. But I hear JCL was interested in coaching, so maybe Self is working a bit more deliberately on building a tree… Case certainly seems to have his support as well.
-
I’d take comments said at the banquet with little substance imo. There will be real conversations behind the scenes
-
Would Yes be able to transfer without sitting out a year? I thought you can only do it once?
-
@mayjay we would help him get a waiver if that situation comes up.

@FarmerJayhawk Pass, terrible fit.

I wouldn’t hate it, especially since Davis is probably Memphis bound

HOT TAEK here but I think there are a lot of better guards in the portal.
-
Davis to Memphis just seems odd and not what I was expecting. Wonder what the connection is
-
I mean Antoine Davis is the closest thing to confident shooter as Remy was coming in. He’s got flair in him. Maybe Bill wants more of that
-
HOT Tyrese Hunter rumors. Not in the portal yet but it’s firmly in play due to NIL.
-
Isu? Not fond of con. Transfers. Guess that’s why they use to have that rule.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 UNC offering Hunter $750,000.
-
@BShark wow, from what?
-
Emoni Bates, worth a flyer?

God yes. Not sure we can afford tho?
-
I’d take him if dad totally bought in. No guaranteed role, earn everything.

@FarmerJayhawk I lol’d

@FarmerJayhawk I’d think coach Jank would highly recommend Self!
