Lance is COOKING

Great weekend of crootin.
-
LL just sees the big picture and actually executes on it. Just a phenomenal hire thus far. Have to hope we can keep him.

KU really pushing to have a top 50 class in '24. The way things are trending a good season pretty much locks this in. DB room is going to be very good. RB room continues to be strong. I think they like their LBs.
What’s left is finding some WR talent and the big uglies on both sides of the ball. Has routinely been a challenge for KUFB. Luckily the transfer portal has made this a lot easier (imo).
-
@Kcmatt7 Marsh or bust for WR this class. Every single scholarship WR can come back in 24, so there’s not a huge need there. Zavier Hamilton canceled, I think we’re good at LB unless Boganowski wants to hop on board. Have a couple big weeks for OL coming up. Also will see some targets emerge their senior years that we’ll pursue in December.

" On paper, this could very well be the best team KU has had since the magical Orange Bowl run in 2007."

Lance stays red hot.

BUMMMMMMP.
Jordan Peterson on the heater of a lifetime with Dak Brinkley.
-
If they land Boganowski too (assuming everyone signs) this defense could really turn into something in a few years.

MASSIVE

Now they just need to have a good season on the field and secure this class in December

Only had 2 spots and addressed big needs in the portal. Top 300 and top 60 guys in their HS class originally.
-
Staffs close rate on transfers is wild.
-
@Kcmatt7 do you have 5 kids by now, stranger?
-
Big get with Bai Jobe - - we don’t get him or our other get for this coming Season do we ? - -Aren’t they for 25 ?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 just the one, but he keeps me busy
-
@Kcmatt7 how old? Congrats!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 a year and a half now. In the throes of toddler tantrums

My youngest is 5, and has just recently become sufferable. Good luck.
-
Lance is feeling spicy
-
-
@approxinfinity if he’s anything like me, 12 year old KC Matt will be very face punch able unfortunately
-
@Kcmatt7 lol, time for paybacks!

That will last about 6 more years, then you have to wait until they are about 26 for some sanity to return to your lives. Enjoy the sweet times!

The A&M center to KU is gaining steam

Someone has to “retire” for it to work out. Very interesting.

One that would make a ton of sense is Easters. I assume he’s really close to graduating and would be a prime contender for a GA spot.

What level of steam would you say we are at rn?

The boiler works but we don’t have the engine cranked quite yet
-
We got our punter. STRONG leg- -they said if you were to put his stats in the Big 12 this past yr he would of ranked 2nd in net.-- Several 50 plus , very efficient
-
@FarmerJayhawk ermmm i want a steam analogy update here. We need apples to apples.
-
@SlimShaddy54 I hope we don’t need a punter

Ya, it seems like a clear upgrade over Greaves. Slightly confused if he has 1 or 3 years of eligibility. People are saying one year but he’s listed as a true sophomore so… ?
That takes us to 82 scholarship players total. 40 offense, 40 defense, and 2 special teams.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Ya I’m not sure, all I have seen was Swain’s Article and he said one year, I really don’t know bud-- sounds like a nice get though
-
I read something saying it is one year because he spent a couple of years at a college in Australia

The engine has taken us almost to the top of the mountain but we’re running out of coal (NIL $).
-
@FarmerJayhawk nice! I cant believe I have been excited about KU football for 3 years in a row.
-
Is there any crossover in NIL between bball and football? Like a common pool? Showing my ignorance here. does the same agency handle all of KU NIL?
-
@approxinfinity yes and no. Mass Street Collective is the “official” agency that handles it all. Donors can select which sport their donations support when they donate. Buuuut all that is going under the roof of KUAD this summer when revenue sharing becomes a real thing. Businesses can also reach out to athletes directly, but that’s less common.
-
One thing KU has going for it is that I believe we have a very good reputation for paying whatever NIL money we say we will pay. Where other schools… well, not so much.

A very fun, but very stressful time to be working in KUAD right now I imagine.

Lance is STILL cooking, we got that commit- - -Hunter Higgins , top De in the state of Kansas— -we have a bright future, they are really building a strong core
-
@FarmerJayhawk No need to worry about money. They will come to Lawrence for the city, the camaraderie and love of the game.
Oh, I crack myself up
-
Im ready for football season.
-
@approxinfinity Me toooo. -Go teem go- - Rah , Rah , Rah, Sisk Boom Bah - -lol.- -No Seriously I really am. Coach and staff really building something nice for the future.

@approxinfinity said in Lance is COOKING:

The way the portal and recruiting works, it’s pretty much always football season.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich I feel like he means when they’re actually playing and can pull off amazing feats like being the only team in the history of college football to be unranked and beat three Top 25 teams in consecutive weeks, but not be good enough to go to even a crappy bowl game.
@approxinfinity , please correct me if I’m out of line.
