2023 Transfer Portal

ALSO HILARIOUS: portions of KU twitter melting down over Bill cutting loose the “dead weight”.
-
Yikes twitter can be such a cesspool sometimes.
People are uniformed most of the time unlike us fanaticals lol

On one hand I’m bummed Joe is leaving because he was a GREAT locker room guy. Very smart, good leader and role model for the youths. Buuuuut at some point it has to match production, which it never did. So best of luck to Joe. Tear the roof of the Mo Valley, my dude.
Excellent post my friends. Well said. Have no bad ill towards Joe, , seemed energetic. - He tried , but just a different level of competition , won’t lie think the kid really liked it here, and I liked him here- -just didn’t work out. - -Good luck though Joe
-
Yeah definitely a miss for me too. Really struggled with the mental aspect of playing here it felt. He was never the confident player we saw at Drake. Oh well he helped us some just not enough. Always a hawk!

-
Maryland’s Hakim Hart in the portal.
-
Here’s a big one, Syracuse’s Joe Girard in the portal. Can’t imagine he’d be a target just mentioning. Big time shooter but small.
He’s from around my neck of the woods, saw him play in High School when he was breaking every NY state scoring record. Routinely went for 50 and would shoot from half court sometimes, he was that cocky. His dad rubbed a lot of people wrong, probably why Boheim took him LOL.
-
More Big-12 departures
Joe Bamisille leaving OU. At least the 3rd guard to leave them Moser’s crew.
Jordan Turner leaving Baylor. Never really got any burn.
Cormac Ryan leaving Notre Dame, can shoot.
-
Portal will hit over 1000 by end of weekend, heck perhaps by end of day. Certainly trending to top last years total.

This has been known for over a week now but it’s a shame that it got put out on twitter. People need to behave when it comes to players not yet in the portal that we are tampering with.

@BShark and people ask why we have to sometimes be cagey. With great* power comes great responsibility
*incredibly niche insight fueled by years of hanging out with friends in Lawrence establishments talking ball

Or people need to not share so-called secret info if they don’t want it out.
I always love it on Survivor when someone gets a secret idol and immediately tells someone who promises to keep it a secret. Yep, that will happen.

Don’t be tampering. No mentions of you know who…

I’ve been thinking for years this guy would transfer to KU. Guess it finally happened – or will happen, maybe. wink wink.

Ultimately secrets are hard to keep. Just spoils his announcement that’s all mostly.

I’m just wondering when the guys will announce they are transferring into out program. Hopefully not to long. --Has the one actually announced he is even the portal yet ? - - I know you BShark had hinted his name but said he had actually even entered yet. - Ha he officially entered the portal ?

There is Stanford’s academic schedule to consider. Last day of finals is today. Conferral of degrees is April 6th.

I don’t think that date matter for them to announce anything. It would only be relevant in regards to when they could enroll at KU which would be summer school with Stanford being on the quarters system.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I think the first date probably matters and Jones wants to and will graduate. We’ll see. I do not know the time frame so I’m just speculating.

I believe the dates to announce decisions are only relevant to the NCAA’s window on when that can happen, but graduation dates are relevant to when he, or anyone else would actually be able to enroll at KU.

Almost no chance he’s leaving but I would drop a BAG for Kalkbrenner
-

I wish we would’ve landed Scheierman. He would’ve been the bench player KU needed this season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 You think one of the top transfers wanted to come off the bench versus starting and getting to shoot a ton?
Bill prioritizes defense sometimes too much unfortunately

Obviously he didn’t want to since he didn’t come here. Doesn’t mean I can’t wish he had made a different decision. And no, he is not a better player than McCullar which is why I called him a bench piece at KU.
-
@kuballin10 this portal class appears to be almost all offense so we’ll see how it goes. Defense could be there but a work in progress for sure
-
Scheierman‘s numbers went way down too. I think people underestimate how big a jump it is from a mid to high major. One of my offseason projects is looking at how big a drop you can actually expect. A mid major conference player of the year is at best a decent starter at a place like KU
-
6’8 wing/4 man Jack Clark in the portal from NC St. Avg 9ppg and nearly 7 boards. Not a prolific shooter but takes them
-
Pretty compelling there

Why I’m not overly concerned about next year. Assuming we get dudes.
-
Brandon Murray in the portal from Georgetown. 2 transfers in 2 years after leaving LSU last year. 6’5 Guard averaged 13.7 ppg on awful shooting splits.
With the memo for transfers regarding coaching changes no idea how he plans to play next year.
-
We targeted the wing version of Cam Martin. Better not be serious.

Holy shit.
Hmmmm well not even gonna bother to ask. Don’t think we or he would land here - -no particular reason. Don’t think we were even involved initially were we. - Will be a nice addition for somebody
-
@jayballer67 We were. Imagine Arkansas is the favorite here, he is from there.
-
@BShark https://duckswire.usatoday.com/lists/kelel-wares-nba-draft-stock-plummets-amidst-struggles/
Any idea why he struggled so much the second half of last year?

Not sure. I actually wouldn’t want him, it’s just a massive addition to the portal. If we are going to take a big I want a guy with back to the basket skills.

@BShark Another high profile player I’m not interested in, UK’s Wheeler, is in the portal.

Wheeler may very well end up in Manhattan and I think and if it’s the case K/State fans are going to be severely let down and that is I’m afraid they think Wheeler will be a Marquis Nowell 2- - -umm that’s not happening. Wheeler - IS NOT a Marquis Nowell yes true he can score some - Marquis is a better defender - - -Marquis takes care of the ball a little better and Marquis is WAY BETTER at assisting the ball - but that’s what they envision -SORRY

I’ll contribute to the KSU NIL to get Wheeler to Manhattan

Me too. I can’t wait for them to talk up this kid like he’s the 2nd coming. Boy are they in for the opposite.
-
Center Ke’Lel Ware - Oregon- Top 10 2022 prospect.
PG Savir Wheeler- Kentucky. LOL
PF Isaac Traudt- Top 50 2022 prospect, KU did recruit him some. Can’t blame him for wanting out of that molasses offense.

@BeddieKU23 I was at the KU UK game. UK fans behind me kept screaming to get Wheeler out of the game…LOL

Go get your 25 shots somewhere bro, just not in Lawrence
