Boy I just seen some video of him from TOS - -mercy he just flat pancaked looked like two guys on a play - -holy bat crap lol. - -looks like really solid physical kid made some nice catchs - -nice blocks, and works for me as a TE. - -Just mentioned defense cause I guess there had been some talk about DE

Minnesota DL transfer, which is definitely a need for us. Lets steal all of Minnesota’s players on defense.
Booker next?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich certainly doesn’t hurt us with him. Think we get Phillips (DT from CSU) in the near future as well.

Nice. Keys is a great get for us though. Excited to have him.

Farmer your such a huge help for me. This is a sweet PU - -hoping we can haul some more. - -we really need that Defensive side of the ball. I think offensive side is looking good
-
Keep adding big men. By far the weakest position on the D.
-
From TOS I guess we just picked up another flip - -another kicker that had been with Nebraska has hit 57 yard Fg’s Charlei Weinrich ? - -I think is from Kansas was in the class of 22 - -left footed kicker
-
@jayballer67 yep, walk on
-
Everyone signed. Weisman is delaying, so we’ll watch that one.
Also picked up Phillips, the CSU DT. 6’1 310. One to play. Expect him to start.
-
-
Weisman flipped to CU
-
Got a friend of mine that lives in California. - -He was talking about our little running back we got a commit from -Name is Johnny Thompson I believe – played for Oaks Christan - -or Christan Oaks which is one of the bigger Schools in California & probably he said one of the top ten High Schools in the Nation. - Thompson had originally committed to USC - said good little back - kinda same level as a Devin Neal probably , can always use solid backs such s this guy

Austin Booker
. Is landing 3 DL transfers in 30 hours good

-
@KirkIsMyHinrich he just popped for Indiana
-
-
The staff addressing our biggest needs. - -DL and some secondary - -focus on defense - offense in pretty good shape still got some really good commits - -Hamm , etc

. Is landing 3 DL transfers in 30 hours goodAny idea how many spots we have left? I know it will fluctuate after the bowl with some possible deflections, but was just curious how many spots we have open right now.
-
I have read some fans who are caught up in the class ranking and still kind of down on recruiting, but it is clear we are recruiting better players. We also do not have as big of a class as everyone most other teams so that is going to drag our ranking down as well.
I will say this was a hell of a cycle for Big 12 in general. Tech with a top 25 class, and Iowa St and K-State both have top 30 or 40 classes depending on where you look. Pretty strong for the conference.
-
Kleinman and KSU actually have the #289th ranked class according to rivals. He is a hell of a coach and that is pretty salty.

Yeah a top 30 class is very hard to pull off. Future is bright for them especially with Texas and OU leaving.

Somebody posted this on a different website. But it shows the average ranking of KU players in a given year. Depending on where you look and if you include transfers I think we may be ahead of a few other B12 schools, but regardless we are clearly moving in the right direction and closing the gap.
2015 - 81.18
2016 - 82.19
2017 - 82.18
2018 - 83.54
2019 - 83.96
2020 - 83.94
2021 - 84.67
2022 - 84.53
2023 - 85.96

We rank last in the big 12 recruiting for this yr- – BUT what you have to keep in mind is - -we ( KU only had 12 commits -while other schools was at 24 -23 , 21 so you see these other schools had many more recruits. - -The average ranking of players shows we for sure are headed in the right direction, many players with scores of 85’s - -86 - -and a few 87’s
What these 86’s and 87’s mean is that recruiting analysts’ are saying that these type of players can come in and right off the start from the get go - -these players are ready to contribute from the start, these players will or should make an impact from the start.
We are close to our limit for full of 85 - - they say we might be able to have 6-7 more in this class , we gonna lose maybe a few more after the bowl game
Talking like what would be great is if we could red shirt this entire Freshman class. - Don’t think that’s happening , were getting closer but not yet.
Were still young - when you figure we have 10- -11 returning on the offensive side and quite possible of having 20 – of 22 in the two deep - that’s awesome. This year Coach hit the defensive side pretty hard DL and some secondary exactly where we needed to be. - - Looks like he took care of our kicking issues - - FG’S - extra points - and kickoffs – Coach L is Awesome
-
Numbers are TIGHT. This includes Bean and Booker until we hear different. Also includes all the portal commits plus 2023 signees. Really need a CB, LB, and possibly a QB in the portal or in the late period. Other than that, we’re solid. We’ll see how it changes after the bowl game.

You thinking KState Coach gone after this year?- -na he ain’t going anywhere - -not this year anyways I don’t think. - If he was he would have already been gone

Missourah is getting drilled 14-3. No wonder they ducked us.

!4 -10 now be careful long way to go
-
Wake had a chance to put this game away when they recovered a muffed punt up 14-3. Proceeded to throw a INT and now it’s a tossup.
-
Dillon Mong? Shawnee Mission East. TE, 6’6” 215. Committed.
-
@Gorilla72 My school! We could have added all our OL together and soaked them, and they would have totaled about 212 lbs.
-
@BShark he’s also from there and they can pay him a lot more than the cats
-
@FarmerJayhawk I’d be making that offer yesterday if I were Iowa but they are weird so who knows.
-
Hey Farmer - - - you hearing any rumblings about Jacobee Bryant hitting the portal ? - - Geesh I sure hope not
-
@jayballer67 he’s staying
