@tis4tim The same reason most of these kids go to most schools. Exposure and well you know the rest.
I hear you. I’m admittedly a bit biased against that town.
Many moons ago, when I was in college, I made a road trip down there for a football game and had one of the worst days you could possibly have. I’ve held a grudge ever since.
Circumstances aside, I still found it to be completely inhospitable.
-
@tis4tim I remember you telling us, remind us again.

Have you ever been to Lubbock? I believe it is the most isolated P5 school in the country, even more so than Washington St. I can’t think of any other P5 schools that are a 4+ hour drive to a major metropolitan area (1 million+ residents) and Lubbock is about 5 hours from the D/FW area.
Lubbock is also an ugly city and area. People make jokes about Kansas being flat, that area of Texas flat and has minimal diversity of vegetation. There’d have to be some very special reason for me to ever want to make that drive to Lubbock. I know several Tech alums who have never been back to Lubbock because of how isolated and boring of a city it is for anyone not in school there.

@Texas-Hawk-10 meaning all they got is sports! “You can be heroes!”
-
Imagine getting Scheierman and Mosley. Would be pretty fun tbh.
-
And it just keeps getting better and better for Kentucky. - - Keion Brooks has entered the portal. He played in all 33 games for them last year. - -That makes him & Dontaie Alen ( they just totally screwed with this kid ) & Bryce Hopkins to enter the portal
Then they lost TY Ty to the NBA Draft - -Topping has entered the draft but maintaining this eligibility status Plus another - -Dammit I hate it when that happens to that team lol
-
-
@BShark - why do so many responses seem to think Baylor Scheierman is going to KU? Is it the “KU pays” mantra?

No we are genuinely deep in it. Us and Creighton are the two main players here.
-
Kentucky guy can whine all he wants, part of this is playing close to home for Baylor.

His family will be able to go to ISU, KSU, OSU and OU games plus all of our home games.
Creighton makes a ton of sense for him too though for those reasons plus a huge role. Also they pay well too.
-
@Kcmatt7 Yeah I think the bigger role is a real factor for Creighton here. Will be interesting. I think he decides within the next 7-10 days.

Lol seriously if they land both this team can absolutely shoot it’s brains out.
Might give 17-18 a Tun for their money as best shooting KU team of all-time.

I think this is a lot less likely now fwiw. Ironically made that post right before hearing someone was locked in to coming back from an extremely trustworthy source.
-
So, who is the most likely from the portal between Mosley - - Hunter - Baylor - who is our best shot ?

Don’t look @Crimsonorblue22

Spoiler one of them is Kansas.

-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 Okay. Yeah same. I know we are also pretty interested in some other wings in the portal. Will be interesting to see who we get.
-
The only way I like Mccullar is as Plan C. Get Baylor then Hunter. If all fails then Mccullar. Mccullar struggle shooting the three good mid range shooter and Elite defender. I know Coach really just want his defense
-
Is it bad I don’t want McCullar? Like as a bench piece sure. But as a starter? Yuck
-
@BShark no kidding
, don’t look, here’s a hint! Goofball!
-
@BShark still don’t like snacks leaving, traitor! Don’t like him! Something up w/that.

I for one sure the hell wouldn’t lose any sleep if Mccullar went to Gonzaga. - -He does nothing for me/not impressed. Never have been - -PASS

Not bad at all. Like I mentioned earlier he does not impress me – let him go to Gonzaga

Nothing to worry about.

@BShark Do me a favor and tell him to the the damn scholarship before Bill allow a scrub to take it first
-
Haven’t heard much lately on Hunter. Any updates ?
-
So no Baylor for us
He put Duke in his Final 5 before us. Pains me that we continually lose recruiting battles to DOOK
-
@NormRoberts said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:

Don’t think he is good enough to play at Duke, should be Creighton.
-
@BShark You think we are on the Mosely or bust train?
-
Baylor can shoot but what else would he do here that we expect from Self kids? Didn’t look like a fit when you put the film on
-
Matthew Mayer in the portal

I agree , I think when push comes to shove with him wanting to or also haas talked about playing in State - I think he ends up at Creighton

Suddenly our interest became very low, when a certain player informed the staff he would return.
-
@benshawks08 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:

I think we want a wing type to slot in for CB. Then if we can pull Hunter, someone finds their way into the portal.

Who informed the staff they were returning? Is this a Cuffe reference or a JW reference?

@RockkChalkk rhymes with smalen smilson

Wow that might be my most subtle work yet ngl.

Sad there will be fewer mullets in the league.

Dam I didn’t realize that Smalen Smilson had said he was returning - how did I miss that?- that’s good though I thought for sure either NBA or over seas’s this yr for him

Great point. No replacing Jalen imo. Glad we hopefully don’t have to worry about that until next year…

Oklahoma St lands John Michael-Wright, transfer PG from High Point
-
Keyontae Johnson entered the portal from Florida. Johnson, collapsed during a game in December 2020 was a big time player but hasn’t played or practice since that day. Very interesting story to watch

Stay away snakes from North Carolina

@BShark “Really just a school that deals with pros. A school that is willing to make their best player run suicides or make their best player get disciplined as much as their worst player. A school that holds everybody accountable. I’m just looking for a good team. A family first team like Missouri State is." This sounds like us… Self brought preseason conference player of the year, Remy Martin off the bench and basically refused to play him until he got better.
-
@benshawks08 I was thinking the same.
Bill is running lead on Mosley himself. And of course we have an incredible recruiter in his best friend Dajuan Harris.
