Yeah not expecting KU here. Elmarko scared him off
But this is a 20224 recruit
Yeah, Juan, Bobby and Elmarko at the PG spot for the next how many years? Not sure they have pushed for anyone at that spot given what they have. He’s probably also looking for a starting spot among other things.
-
#33 overall Cam Scott mentions wanting to visit KU before his decision in February. Also mentions visiting Tennessee.

I don’t fancy beating Ole Ricky. Will be interesting to see what the other visits are. Strong ass list.

Is Dejuan gonna be here in 2024-25? He’s a redshirt junior this year so doesn’t that mean next season would be his final season here?
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Theoretically he could due to the covid year. If that happens, he could break a bunch of KU records due to getting 5 full years of playing time, after a RS no less.
-
He could be here due to the covid year. However, the way he’s improved this season I’m wondering if that’s realistic. It would be beyond incredible if we got 2 more seasons out of him after this.

If his shot continues to improve, I could see backup PG ability at the next level. That will keep you on a roster for a decade, and if he’s smart, he will be set for life with that.
-
Do you think he would be draftable after next season? I’m wondering if he will test the waters this season to see what they have to say about his game.
-
Not that I thought we really had a chance but 5 star PG Zoom Diallo didn’t mention KU in his latest update to his recruitment. Previously had mentioned interest. Looking like a Nike kid
-
KU is recruiting 4 star SG Rakease Passmore #51 overall recruit from Charlotte NC. Big stock riser (sounds like he’s rise even further) that’s got Duke, Tennessee, Oregon, NC St, Indiana also after him. He’s taking an unofficial to Duke next week. No other visits so far.

Hate our chances if Duke gives a real offer. HATE.
-
Yeah not losing sleep here. NC kid so pulling him obviously won’t be easy anyway. Not seeing KU involved with a ton of 24’s so far. A lot of kids have already moved their recruitments up and made commitments so interested to see what actual targets pop up.

Names to watch
Castillo, Jeremiah Johnson, Jaxon Prunty.
They like Cam Scott but that will be difficult.
-
Not a big list, we seem to be getting selective. Haven’t really turned my attention to this group yet either though
-
@BeddieKU23 I am guessing they will take a big, but no idea who.

Diallo released his final 6 that does include KU. Think this is nothing more than a courtesy.
Kansas: “ Kansas is another one of those blue blood programs. They have a great reputation of winning basketball games and making pros. Coach Self is another one of those great hall of fame coaches and Coach Townsend has done a great job recruiting me as well. It’s a blessing being recruited by one of the blue bloods.”

Kansas has offer class of 2024 @mvabasketball pf @liammcneeley30 after his strong play at the@hoophallclassic
-
5 Star PG Tahaad Pettiford will announce tomorrow. Has KU as a finalist but hasn’t visited. KU offered in October. Did get to Auburn and Uconn. Weird
-
Top 5 prospect Dylan Harper is down to a final 5 and has KU on that list. Hasn’t visited KU, he has been to Duke and Indiana already. Said he will take his 3 remaining visits after the season. Son of Ron Harper Sr and younger brother of Ron Harper Jr who was a star at Rutgers. He is in contention for the #1 spot.
-
#1 prospect Tre Johnson is considering a visit to KU. Was at UK and has been to Baylor and Texas also. Case on the case lol

That’s been the word on his recruitment since he took a visit there. Not worried about this one.

Pettiford chose Auburn. Would have been too confusing anyway.
Incidentally, FWIW, this was a proper application of what is known as “sour grapes.”

Isaiah Evans is a name to monitor.

Not yet. Staff checked in on him this week.

5-star PG David Castillo has an official visit scheduled for KU on 2/17 for the home Baylor game.
Self closing time!
-
Hope they land him. Seems like KSU is in deep as well?
-
Initial thoughts watching Castillo’s “tape” is that he has a silky sooth stroke and just absolutely pure… VERY good at pulling the trigger moving to his left (a lot of the best shooters are). Looks like he has really good ball handling.
Concerns would obviously be his size and athleticism. Doesn’t seem to be an elite athlete (that’s okay if you can shoot 40% from deep).
Odd to me a top 25 guy doesn’t have a writeup on 247. Looks to me like a 3-4 year guy that would do well in the new Self 4-out offense. Would be really nice to play him next to another PG that has some size and really make that pick and roll deadly.
-
Pretty much all my thoughts as well. Saw 3-4 year player due to lack of size/athleticism but his shot is really good mechanically and smooth and he gets set and executes really well at this young age. From the 3-4 videos I’ve watched, he knows he’s good, has some confidence about him, he can get to his spot or get his shot off with ease. For a Top 25 type guy I was thinking this is Bill’s kinda guy to develop

Yes. Coaching tie or some such.
-
Well for what it’s worth read where we made Nass Cunninghams final 5 : KU - -Duke - - UCLA - - Rutgers - -& Memphis. # 3 ranked by 247- - -& # 4 in Rivals. - -No CB’S Yet.
-
Happily will send him to the brothahoooood

Would be a nice pick up

Yeah for the other 4 teams. Just not a fit here

I would make him a fit
