Transfer Rumblings

Seems like Hunter wants to continue the drama
-
@jayballer67 nah just taking his time - he’s fine

Bill is here folks.
-
I mean is it really negative recruiting if it’s the truth?!
-
yeah the fit concerns are objectively facts lol. Ant Wright(big 10 guy who has Michigan connections) said he believes the four best fits for what hunter is looking for (championship and potential legacy) are Kansas, Villanova, Georgetown and a possible return to Michigan since he knows everything about the place. Kentucky’s guards are more focused on getting to the nba and Maryland already has Julian Reese and Donta Scott in their front court.
-
Kentucky writer, so of course he has to frame it like that.
-
On and on we go…
-
It appears no one knows….and also 1-2 transfers out if Hunter comes is significant

Yeah I’d rather just add Mgbako and be done but I’m not Bill.

Does he want to get to 4 scholarships even if hunter doesn’t come?
-
If you’re basically guaranteed 2 years of Dickinson, the transfers out may be worth it. I’d hate to lose guys with some major upside like Zuby/Udeh but the reality is that there were at least 6 or 7 rim-runner type of bigs that hit the portal this year who could have filled in for them if not been better.
On the flip side, there weren’t very many P5 post guys who can get you 20 and 10 most nights. I get the value proposition Bill is going for.
-
I feel a strong need to develop Udeh! So much upside.
-
KU showing interest in Grant Nelson

Don’t blame them , but looks like pretty good chance he stays in the draft
-
@BeddieKU23 I really don’t think we end up getting him the way things are playing out. Timing combined with our scholarship issues are going to be a huge hurdle.

I LOVE Udeh’s personality. He seems like a great human and I really don’t want to see him go. It just wouldn’t shock me.
-
Yeah I don’t expect anything anymore, this offseason has soured me to the point I no longer want to pay attention until October comes around.
-
Give me Mackenzie and I’m comfortable with the off-season.

Yup, I’d say some of the souring to me is the new recruiting period we are adjusting to (portal). It’s an entirely new season we aren’t used to. But the vast majority of my souring is the NIL crap. I guess I need to get comfortable with that or move on, huh.
-
The NCAA cramming the portal into like a one month period is asinine to me
-
Cuffe is in the portal.
-
There’s now a world where we add Mgbako, Hunter, and Nelson.
-
@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:

wow! something happened behind the scenes.
-
So, what do you all suppose happened recently with cuffe? why right now? Why not a few weeks ago? Love to know the conversation between him and Self
And my gut feeling is - just pick a damn school Hunter what the hell… KU should be a no brainer. Maybe, as has been suggested, he is wary of Self actually being what a good coach should do - ride his ass when he needs it. I won’t be upset if he picks Kensucky.
-
The more i read about Hunter, the less i want him at KU.
-
Bill must’ve moved mountains trying to find cuffe a landing spot

From?
-
I am guessing Mbagko.
-
That was my guess on Cuffe…he was waiting to enter the portal (once convinced) to see if a team would take him given his injury history, etc.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk You are probably right! Wishful thinking on my part!

Joel decides he’s done it all in the NBA with his new mvp trophy, decides to play out his eligibility!

You know me so well brother.

So - quick question… if we could only get just one - either Hunter or Mbagko… Which one would we you all want?

Nah Bill wants to take us to a whole new level - need more baby!

No longer a problem we have to think about.

BOTH PLUS NELSON AND WE GO UNDEFEATED!
-
Juan
Morris
Mgbako
Nelson
Hunter
Timberlake, Elmarko, KJ, Marcus and Udeh off the bench
There’s no way but that’d be a whole new level
-

You’d have to lose someone else still to add Nelson. But there will be a ripple effect if we add Hunter.
-
@kuballin10 I would never! Buckle up

We will unfortunately big Zuby it appears
-
either we pulling hunter and Mgbako or we getting some stragglers from the nba draft. Can’t complain
-
@rcjhdraft I think we get both
If we somehow miss on Hunter we will get some late draft stud like Nelson that comes back to school
-
https://twitter.com/itsAntWright/status/1653961394847375365. Hunter might’ve made his choice
-
Bill gets Hunter and Mgbako and 1 other scholly frees up for any nba draft guys withdrawing late….he will have dominated this portal season.
Ball handling guard - check
Shooter - check
6-8 wing who’s athletic and can shoot - check (not portal I know but still)
Best player in the portal - check
-
@rcjhdraft Maybe official tomorrow… That’s never been said before.
