2022 Transfer Portal Thread

@rockchalkjayhawk said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
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:

Some 'Tucky crackhead already changed Timme’s Wiki page:

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.

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!

Absolutely!
-
Oh Davis don’t play with us like that
-
@BeddieKU23 seems like we survived the Memphis visit at least…hopefully…
-
Just wanted to wish all my Bucket friends a very Happy Easter!!
-
@Oldmanhawk same to you and the rest of the gang. Had a great day at my youngest sons.

K-St landed LSU transfer Jerrell Colbert

3 years to play. only played in 4 games less then 7 minutes a game - -BUT did average a Double Double in High School , think basically a little better version of the Big that just entered the portal
-
-
Tyrese Hunter will be in the portal by the end of the week.
As far as being a done deal to UNC…
-
@BeddieKU23 where’s Bruce?
-

@Crimsonorblue22 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@BeddieKU23 where’s Bruce?
getting his play hard chart framed. Probably watching his resignation speech on loop
-
@BeddieKU23 hair looks better
-
Did he cut it. I had already forgot he existed
-
Hunter from Iowa St is officially in the portal.
-
Have to feel for ISU here, legit tampering going on. Just how the game is going…
Having said that. Sup Tyrese!~
