@BShark is this if we miss on Timberlake or are we pulling his offer?
Is he in the portal yet?
-
@Woodrow Yes in the portal.
Think Timberlake is going to UConn
-
Friend of mine just relayed a tweet a guy put out , not sure who the guy is but this guy Henry Pleszkun - tweeted out :Per my sources : - -Hunter Dickinson is a Jayhawk. Bill get’s what he wants Pay him the bag , let’s go get another Natty -who his sources are - -I dunno lol
-
@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:
Finally got the name of the portal guard. I think he could visit next week. Promised I wouldn’t give the name. But uh, buckle up and Vern should break it early next week.
I was gonna guess El Ellis(wouldn’t have been happy with that) but there’s Arkansas smoke with him so guess he’s out lol
-
Just read off TOS - poster stated knows some NIL fundraisers and saying KU WILL NOT be out bid in the NIl for Hunter could approach 7 figures, also saying however this is legit three team race for Hunter. The play for playing close to home is a big pull not gonna be easy. we have last chance better hit it out of the park come Thursday
-
@approxinfinity Here goes nothing.
-
It’s not Spears, who claims he has set up another visit with Kansas (lol).
-
@BShark Thank god. Massive massive pass on spears, especially with the wide variety of guard talent in the portal.
-
@rcjhdraft I think Spears is recruiting Kansas, not the other way around.
-
@BShark lol this guy showing up on his own dime?
-
Read off Maryland Board, had an article where it said Hunter had broke his silence. - -Talking about he hadn’t really planned on his visits to GTown or Maryland this weekend , but knew he was coming home anyways so he said he might of get it over with instead of later - get them out of the way - talk about how G T was only 20 minutes away from home - and sounding like he said he would like to be home and play.
Talking about how he was keeping his recruitment low key and how people would try and take anything and run wit it. - -Was talking about how there had been a lot of bad tweets about thing he had said bad about Maryland in his past. They said if he Were to land at Maryland some fans would have to change their opinion of him because of things he had said. - -Hunter said looks like were going to have to delete those tweets huh.

Not sure lol
-
@BShark What happened with that Villanova guy?
-
@dylans Nova figured the money out to keep him. He announced he was returning to Nova.
-
Saw the 247 UNC guy said the ingram in home visit went “well”. No other intel and the Kansas visit didn’t get canceled so think we might be in good. They’re dreaming about getting ingram, trey Alexander and Cormac Ryan.
-
Honestly have no idea why anybody would want to play for Hubert. The guy can’t coach
-
@rcjhdraft I mean those 247 guys will never say it went bad. But you’d know if it went better I think.

Mystery guard visit should drop today.

ARTERIO MORRIS VISITING KANSAS

@BShark He’s a woman beater, trial soon. I hope that’s not the surprise guard you’ve been talking about. What a

It is.
-
@BShark I can’t root for that guy. Hope he goes elsewhere. I’d like the ladies on the hill to be safe.
-
Yeah. You can see why I had to sit on this one and needed to really confirm it.
-
@BShark Hope it’s a Bragg or Tyreek Hill like thing, but good grief it’s really rare that the guy was actually innocent.
-
@BShark I’m confused. Why do bill think he need another backup Pg ?
-
@NormRoberts said in Transfer Rumblings:

It’s clear we want another guard. He’d play off the ball here.
-
@NormRoberts really only two ball handlers - Elmarko and DaJuan. Bill likes to play multiple guards that can handle the ball, so it would be nice to have a third guy that can spell the point guard or the other ball handling guard at the 2. IMHO
-
@BShark So we rather give a scholarship to an unproven off ball pg.Got you
Arterio could of stayed at Texas and been a starting guard.
I don’t lost a couple brain cells figuring out the plan to round out the team this one is crazy.
-
@dylans Give it to proven people that doesn’t have legal trouble all I’m saying.
-
He would bring some much needed athleticism that’s for sure. I don’t know anything about his charges other than he was charged on a misdemeanor and has a court date so I won’t judge in him on that.
I will say I’d Bill is bringing him in then he must feel pretty good about where things will land on that front.
-
Morris surprised me especially in the last 2 games we played Texas, his defense was really sound for a freshman and he’s got the size/athletic profile that just fits here a lot better than what we had.
Obviously, they are going to vet his off the court stuff. Just the fact he’s been accused of such and has a court date makes it hard to want him here.
-
In bill I trust
-
For anyone who wants to read about the charges.
Seems clear to me why it was a misdemeanor and not more. Certainly a concern still.

I just read it and was about to post the link right before you did. This is something the extent of the investigation for KU should be if this was an isolated, one time incident, or if there have been other similar incidents or anger issues that could cause a repeat of this incident. If it’s the former, there shouldn’t be an issue with bringing Morris into the program. If it’s the latter, then that is more concerning and there would likely need to be conditions placed on Morris to come here with ongoing anger management classes being absolutely required by the school.
-
Heck no
-
I’m gonna trust Bill and the staff on this one.
-
@TYOHawk We got no other choice but I wouldn’t do this if I was in their shoes. Plenty of other good options in the portal.
-
If we were taking swings on McDonald’s all Americans I would’ve rather tried Jaden Bradley.

Think Arterio is more talented than him honestly.

Arterio is probably more talented offensively but Bradley is a better defender and the off the court stuff is nasty

Bradley is tied to something where someone died. His optics are bad, I’m not going to pick which is worse but he’s got the same baggage.

Yeah I didn’t want to go there but yeah…

@BeddieKU23 Yeah my bad, forgot about that.

I think we can find talented dudes without domestic violence charges pending. They’ll do all their due diligence but if it’s me I pass.

I’m taking Ingram’s word that it’s school related at least for now

@FarmerJayhawk Waiting for @TYOHawk to tell you to trust the staff
I agree optics are bad but then again @approxinfinity isnt a fan of you know who
It’s tough because you want to win but to what extent. Morality factor involved

Lol I’m not going there man. I completely get and understand why anybody would be opposed to this move.
-
@kuballin10 hey that’s my line!
Kidding aside, there’s a very reasonable argument about letting the process play out, everyone deserves a shot at redemption, etc. I largely agree but it doesn’t mean KU has to be the school.
