I never ever say 100% anymore until official release now
I don’t really believe it until the first actual appearance in a game.

Still sounding like there should be something official here one way or the other soon
It’s done. I’d think something today or tomorrow.
ya, feeling better now. Read today where one of the so called 247 experts haad put in CB pick for us. will be a nice addition for some minutes hopefully.- -Has deep range, just hope he is not a dark hole with the ball
-
Pretty much there now too.
-
No complaints, love having that wired to score option on the bench.

Yeah I wouldn’t think a big role but the kind of guy you can throw out there when nothing is working offensively.
-
Calling it now. Getting this guy as a 10th option is too good to be true so it will end up falling through

The Billy Eugene DGAF Tour continues apace

The mail HAS ARRIVED.- - One thing people are not going to be able to say about this year’s team is - - -we have no depth.
We have nice depth throughout this team- - - At the five - -we have Hunter , Flory , & Zach - – At the one we have Harris- - -Moore - -& if needed sounds like Mayo could play some - — at the four you have I think KJ , and possibly , again possibly some Zach - - -at the two you have what? - – Griffin ? & others right ? - -at the three you have Storr & others - -w have quality depth none of this 6-7 deep, One year of that is enough.
Another Great Job Coach Self- - -ROCK CHALK

This kid was committed to Texas A&M like 11 days ago. Crazy

Would we all agree we have the best roster in college bball this season?
If not, who would you say has a better roster?
-
@kuballin10 I will not jump on that train until I see them play defense. We got a lot of scorers and HOPEFULLY Bill can coach them up on D. But Gonzaga spamming the same pick and roll play 10 times in a row and getting either a wide open lay up or 3 EVERY time still haunts me. Harris, Hunter and the new guys GOTTA step it up on D to make sure they can guard the most simple of actions.
-
@kuballin10 I am very glad we got a roster you approve of. Similar to if USMNT gets Pochettino i will have extremely little wiggle room to bitch if it goes south. But i am assuming that both of us will find creative loopholes

Projection wise Houston, Duke, Iowa State, Tennessee, UNC, Auburn, Bama and Gonzaga are in the same ballpark. I actually don’t like UNC’s roster at all though. Bama is intriguing, I’d probably trade rosters with them with everything else being equal (we know it isn’t).
@approxinfinity I eagerly await the first moment we are trailing this season.
-
@BShark what about Arkansas?
-
@approxinfinity I’m not sure if we do but if you think we do and we have the best coach in the game it should be a shoe in title!
I’m not really up on other teams right now so once I get to watch some non con we will see who’s got the best roster
I think we do but not 100% sold. If we do have the best Bill better deliver

Kstate has a better roster than Arkansas!
-
@BShark I finally checked cal’s roster and he has dj wagner and pulled johnell davis. That’s gotta be the best backcourt in America right?
Also, why on earth did Ballo leave Arizona for Indiana???
All sorts of transfers this off-season I don’t understand
-

Davis is nasty but Wagner does not impress me. I would take Iowa State’s back court over Arkansas, and others as well.

Money.
-
Can definitely understand it for Ballo, his game is not likely to stick in the NBA and so wants to maximize his earning now. Similar to Hunter leaving Michigan, though Ballo didn’t have the same level of offers from contenders
-
Wagner stinks and is living off HS hype
-
@BShark are any isu bb players in on the betting scandal? I heard they were.

Nana Owusu-Anane will visit Kansas, per Joe Tipton.

Definitely a good option here. Can shoot the 3…

Good solid bench piece. Entered the portal shortly after Brown played KU. Has been out injured this year (shoulder). One to monitor.

He can? Compared to KJ, he can shoot 3’s, but he’s a career 27% from 3 with a season best of 31%. That’s against some of the weakest D1 competition out there so I doubt he’d even shoot those numbers at KU.
That said, I do believe he would be a solid bench piece as someone that can come in and get to the FT line. It’d also be nice to see his FT% increase though as he’s a career 65% from the FT line.
-
Even the low % numbers from 3 are better then zero which is what KJ has offered for 4 years. The kid has tape of him taking 3s open and off the catch so there’s some perimeter skill there. I’m not saying he’s our starting 4 and I’m certainly not penciling him for anything but it does look like the staff will be priorizing KJ’s replacement in the portal and will hopefully be looking for players that have more offensive versatility
-
The rise in competition is definitely the biggest hurdle for him. Just a few games last year against good competition. He did go for 13 and 11 against USC and 15 and 9 against Providence.
Has been out with a torn labrum all year. Not great.
Officially visits Tuesday. A good backup option at the 4 perhaps

I’m not saying he’s doesn’t take those shots, I’m saying opposing B12 coaches won’t respect that part of his game because his best 3 point season is only 31% and he won’t duplicate that stepping up to B12 competition.
As a back up, he seems serviceable, but if you’re looking at roster construction for next year, it’s hard to see him amd Tiller complimenting each other on offense very well.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Good thing our guys are always solid free throw shooters
Good thing our guys excel at getting to the line and transfers in always improve once here at getting to the line more
Good thing that dolla bill will let him have freedom to try that top of the key trey ball to open up the offense without quick hooking him

Feeling good on Dix. Things are moving fast fast

@FarmerJayhawk whew, now don’t you tease, be nice , I just got out of the hospital last week lol-- get me worked up lol , fingers crossed

If he makes the visit this weekend, well that Bill guy hasn’t really missed on transfer targets that visited.
-
Gotta put Dix where the money is, or something.
I look forward to a return of a rampant abuse of last names for the sake of stupid jokes
-
KT down in Hutch today
-
@approxinfinity Lol ya If Dix comes here---- I can here the tators now- - - BOU KU really likes those Dix’s- - -Dick— ( Grady )-- -I can see it on posters at opposing teams lol- --Then he turns around and scorch’s them for 25 - - and all of a sudden those tators turn in tots lmao - -gotta love it

JUCO tournament and yeah his son is a coach.

With what I’ve heard about the $ from Iowa and KU, it would be somewhat surprising if Dix returned to Iowa.

That would be insane frankly. He would get toasted in the SEC.

His game suits them better and I bet he’s utilized better
Chuck more three’s, play matador defense and let whatever big athletic 4&5 man stuff guys at the rim
Works when you have big time athletes protecting the paint so guards can be more aggressive

Would be hilarious. He would be food in that conference

Bama doesn’t play defense so he’d be fine in that system letting the 3’s fly.
