-
@jayballer67 He will be. He didn’t have a choice.

@BShark Confirmation of your earlier inklings or something new?
Got another commit, as I understand it.
Oh Lordy - sounds very interesting from your response - - Also sounds nice lol

@FarmerJayhawk said in Transfer Rumblings:
Just spitballing here. I think Armando Bacot would be a really nice fit should he become available. He would fill a lot of needs: scoring, rebounding, consistent defense. Gives Udeh one more year to not have to be a DUDE
Why not Oscar or Trace-Jackson if we are just spitballing. Is Bacot really even an option?
-
How many of our guys land at other big 12 schools ya think?
-
@benshawks08 well he just announced he was going back to UNC in the most amazing way possible lol https://twitter.com/iget_buckets35/status/1638618326132998144?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
-
@FarmerJayhawk Lol. That’s pretty good.

None this year.
-
Someone tell Slater it’s gif season. Where the gifs? I need hot goss

He’s been handling things a bit differently this year. But there have been a few gifs.
-
We will probably get some gifs, but 0 of our targets are even in the portal yet.
-
Any scuttlebutt on Walter Clayton Jr?
-
-
-
@benshawks08 Yeah but I’m telling you.
St Johns the favorite there, Ole Miss a dark horse.
-
We’re not going after any mid-major guards. The Yesufu experience scarred Bill more than any coronary ever could

I can confirm this.
-
Jeremy Case is that dude.
-
I did read that KU has made contact with the kid I mentioned, but looks like many , many , others have too. - -Graham Ike 6’9 forward from Wyoming rated as the # 12 in the portal - -19.5 ppg & 9’5 rpg
Also the # 5 in the portal SG Khalif Battle also said KU has made contact with him – - --listed probably the best bucket getter - Averaged 17.9 - - - some good options
-
I don’t want any part of Battle. Sounds like he pretty much got kicked off Temple
-
If you combine my reply to Slater with my recent tweet about a KU assistant coach, I trust you guys to figure out the 2nd guy.
-
If the smoke is real I like the Nick Timberlake addition.
-
oddly looks like Caleb Love in some photos
-

Don’t think so given the other guard rumored is much better but we’ll see… I’m digging.
-
@TYOHawk If he wants to come off the bench, yea bring him on.
-
@Kcmatt7 said in Transfer Rumblings:

Not a likely addition, after asking around.
-
@Kcmatt7 @TYOHawk New info. Sounds like the guard will only happen if a certain assistant coach isn’t retained by the new head coach at a school. Belief is said head coach wants an all new staff of his choosing. So things look good. If he portals, it’s KU.
-
I like portals.
-
Bossi did say Timberlake and Battle are legit targets. That’s all for now
-

Hmmm, I thouht had been mentioned that Ku was not going to add any Mid Major this yr after the Joe experiment - -Towson ?
-
I’ll believe it if it happens.
-
Things are fluid and nothing is official if the right fit comes around. Both are quality players worth looking into.
All he said was they were targets. Everyone else in the world is also targeting them
-
Loooots of stuff to play out. KU will get real guys.
-
No any new words about Joe , MJ , and Kyle yet ?
-
@jayballer67 said in Transfer Rumblings:

Expect all three to leave. No official word yet. Some exit meetings still happening.

Mercy All 3 ? - - - I thought one might stick it out - not sure which one - -well Joe or MJ. - Kyle I was 100 % sure on him and pretty much Mj just wasn’t sure on Joe
-
@BShark Would be curious if Cuffe waits to transfer until after the barnstorming event? Not sure the amount of cash that brings these guys. Not sure if they’d be allowed to do it once already in the portal or not?
Maybe that has nothing to do with it too.
-
@Kcmatt7 Would not worry about that at all.
-
@BShark I don’t think I’m worried about it. I’m just saying I don’t know if that matters from a timing perspective.

-
@approxinfinity Not when portals connect to a Hell dimension.
-
@BShark I’m sure most of those guys we know are going to the portal do. Definitely not saying that.
I’m wondering if Cuffe is just like "Hey Bill please just let me get this last check first "
-
@Kcmatt7 honestly, let him IMO. Let him get the bag on his way out. Really anyone to be honest. Haven’t heard a peep about any of the departures having character issues or anything like that.
-
For gits and shiggles I dusted off my NCAA 2K8 game last night (they still update the rosters!) and rolled out a starting lineup of Juan/Battle/Jones/Ingram/Garrett Nelson. Boy that was fun. Not a great shooting team but absolutely unstoppable in transition and had tremendous ball movement.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I totally agree lol. I just don’t know if the guys have to still “be on the roster” to get their check or not. I don’t particularly understand the intricacies of the NIL stuff and if there are rules for the collectives or what.
-
@Kcmatt7 I could be wrong but I don’t think there is. Just would be more awk than anything

I liked Event Horizon myself.

Sounds like a Western Kentucky guard
