Transfer Rumblings
-
Guys don’t really become three point shooters at this late of a stage. He’s a good player, but him developing a trey would shock me.
@dylans good stuff though.
-
KJ is a great story already and he’s a great kid who gives you everything he has, every night. Really solid year for him when it wasn’t expected he would be relied upon like he was. I’ll let Self figure out how to use him going forward if we get a portal dude at the 5. We know he’s a trusted Self dude so he’s going to play a lot.
-
-
That seems fake. Why would McCullar leave if he could get $2mil a year for KU? That’s nba rookie deal money.
I know that’s Hunter’s supposed offer, but I wonder what the real numbers are? Let’s see Gradey’s tax return. So are taxes withheld by the nil company? No way a college kid saves the 800k back for the income tax on a 2 million payday. It’s all gone in 6 months lol.
-
$953,000 is the minimum nba salary. KU pays better is the rumor. (I’d wager it’s closer to 100k)
-
I do remember JCL working with the guys on financial matters. Gotta think KU is on top of that. Is JCL working at KU?
-
That seems like a crazy number - -BUT I do remember reading a post from a guy saying he had talked with a couple of guys and they said that KU would not be outbid in NIL for Hunter - - -holy crap
-
@Woodrow there’s no way that’s legit. KU players do very well for themselves but not that well
-
The whole “Dickinson and money” recruitment thing is causing me to have second thoughts. If it’s about money, why doesn’t he just go pro? Is he not good enough? Can he truly be a teammate?
-
The Pro’s really don’t want him. His position isn’t valued at the next level, and he’s realized his value can be maximized in College. Tshiebwe, Bacot, Jackson-Davis and many other bigs that don’t have that eye popping skill set to jump are finding they can make bank staying in school.

UNC thinks they got Ingram. Will feel much better if the visit goes as planned this weekend.

Ugh. Need to get him on campus Sunday.

That’s what I just posted on another thread. - -Screw this going to ruin the Collee game - turned into free agent signings? - You get that kind of money , no need for College ball just go play in G D E F B J K L N leagues what the hell ever take the drama bullshit with ya
-
@FarmerJayhawk Geez if we lose Ingram to unc and Hunter to uk……this place is gonna be a dumpster fire
-
@kuballin10 oh we’ve got another 2-3 dumpster fire cycles in us before June. Don’t sell the Buckets crew short
-
@FarmerJayhawk lol I’m guilty here!

Not to worry, - -Harrison is coming and Hunter is going to Maryland. - So let it be written - -So let it be done lol

Different players, different money. Also money isn’t everything in all cases. Edit: Not saying THIS number is true though.

Gradey and Jalen got 7 figures last year.

@BeddieKU23 timme
-
Trey Alexander has me hot and bothered
-
@FarmerJayhawk This was sort of his opportunity to announce he was portaling and didn’t right?
-
@Kcmatt7 not yet. Some guys will wait for combine invites or overall feedback to portal just to avoid having to do both the recruiting and draft processes.

Bill has a really solid record with marginally athletic combo guard with a pretty shooting stroke https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/malik-newman-1.html
-
@FarmerJayhawk Please stop, I had given up. Believe me I’ve already watched so much Alexander tape. lol
-
@BeddieKU23 - makes sense. I’m hoping the price is reasonable or KU doesn’t go for his services. I know he would make the team elite, but there are other good players who can help a lot, too. If he goes to UK, it will be interesting to see how they use his skills in “dribble drive”. I’d just really like to get a guy who wants to be a Jayhawk, not an employee….
Just my opinion,…
-
all the portal wings flying off the board. Knecht to Tennessee and hakim hart to nova
-
The problem, from where I sit, is a lot of the most talented guys are going thru draft evaluation stuff. That greatly delays some KU targets from making a decision and holds up the entire process. Just my take.
-

Knecht STINKS, wanted him nowhere near Lawrence and thankfully it doesn’t seem we ever did more than “contact” him.
Hart was a solid plan B though I feel.

Ingram leaving chapel hill without committing?
-
@rcjhdraft yep, UNC coaches are on the AAU circuit tonight

But yet a lot of the targets Ku is going after so are other bigger programs and yet they still getting commits. -or at least Names that had been mentioned as possible KU targets & those targets flying off the boards.
-
@rcjhdraft said in Transfer Rumblings:

The UNC fans have no clue, they are saying that they feel good saying Ingram had delayed his visit for evey reason but the real reason. Which we found out he put it off because Bill was at the hearing right ? People saying we had backed off - -we wereen’t wanting him, and they thought he would sign before he left- - he would never even make his visit to KU.
-

Ask them how they feel about Ingram 2 KU.

So Hunter should be gone by no - -so now we shall see and play the waiting game - -see if he adds even MORE Schools or he calls it good after the Kentucky & Villanova game. Kind of mixed review from Kentucky fans, some are saying anyways they not as over whelming as you would think - -some are really glad he might be theirs - -others saying he isn’t that much better then others & how Cal isn’t gonna let him step out and hit the 3 - -some trying to compare him with the Harrison kid- - talking about how the Harrison kid was so well like and Hunter kind of a douche. Gonna be interesting - -I just don’t think Villanova is really a threat - - now if Wright was still there - -THEN I would be worried but just not seeing it with their staff

Nova’s got a nice team. Moore bamba and hakim hart are some guys along with Armstrong. Neptune seems a bit dodgy though

I saw his Hakim’s name being tossed around with us but just for a minute. - Really don’t think it was really eve much.

Reports are saying Hunter has been offered a NIL north of 2 million to come to KU
-
@kjayhawks said in Transfer Rumblings:

I seen that 2 per year - -they offered rumor ha it a 2 year 4 million deal , Kentucky can match that I’m sure
-
I missed it. When does Dickinson’s visit to KU end?
-
@Gorilla72 April 7, 2025.
-
Bill Self can make Hunter Dickinson a National Player of the Year here. Kentucky likely won’t be a good enough team to make that happen.
-
Buckle up time @FarmerJayhawk
-
Travis doesn’t miss. Pretty big whiff by the KU staff IMO.
-
Yep came here to post that…
-
@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:

Wonder if Haase put in a call to Roy on this one.
-
So now we will see if Ingram ends up showing up for his visit here or not. - -If he shows - then it’s NOT over , If he shows and Bill has that chance at him - ,good we have that Chance after those other guys have had theirs. - -Kinda just like Kentucky having a shot at their sell after us with Hunter - we got the last word- -we shall see.
Just let me know who we end up with - -I give up
