2025 Recruiting



  • I think Josh was composite #1 too. Cliff was also up there



  • @PharmacyHawk said in 2025 Recruiting:

    @jayballer67 Nah - Wiggs/Selby were both #1 overall.

    was they recrited by Self ? – You sure Selby was under Self ? - I can’t remember



  • @jayballer67 Yup. 100%.



  • @jayballer67 Self was hired in 03, Selby was class of 2010, Wiggs 2013

    Oh ok wasn’t sure couldn’t remember , gettin old lol . Appreciate i I was just thinking Selby was further back - , but again appreciate it.



  • The highest rated recruits of the Bill Self era are Andrew Wiggins, Josh Jackson, Josh Selby, Cliff Alexander, David Padgett (this is where an asterisk would go), and Xavier Henry. Darryn Peterson would be 3rd between Jackson and Selby if he committed. This is based the 24/7 composite ratings.



  • Well interesting , Eric Bossi just posted about 35 minutes ago that Nicko Bundalo— has added KU to his list of Schools , top 25 Big Man 6’11, he had cut his list and listed U Conn , UK , Mich St , N C , Ohio St , & Texas before he included Ku

    when talking with Bossi he said he hadn’t had the chance to talk to KU over the summer but has now added because he hadn’t realized how much they were interested in me, and how well I would fit in their style.- -He has now had that chance to talk with the staff.

    He hsa locked in his visits- - U Conn , Michigan St , NC , Ohio St , finalizing a visit with UK - -and sitting up his visit with KU , one interesting note he is transferring schools and will be team mates with Daryn Peterson , said he has played against Daryn and thought would be cool to be the dynamic dual- - if that happened would bode ell for KU , now not saying he lands herre but had good things to say about KU - --we will see



  • Would likely have Flory and him for 2025 then. Would love this just as it means getting back to Bill’s early years where he had a few years to coach up the bigs instead of the years with Cliff/Cheick where we see flashes, but not consistency.

    I personally have no idea if we have any shot at this kid or not BUT is nice to know that he did after , boy him and Peterson would make a good duo cutting hist he added us on and is scheduling a visit , nice to know that the staff made a good enough impression that he is going to visit



  • @jayballer67

    Had some interesting stuff to say about KU showing a lot of interest. Would imagine if he visits this fall that we might have some momentum there but just spitballing some optimism at this point



  • Sure seems like a 2 big class



  • @BeddieKU23 KU is firmly in the mix. No coincidences in recruiting. Thanks Adidas.

    you know, I heard it mentioned can’t even remember be a bit ago but some analyst’s was saying that and I reckon saying this off possibilities but he was saying Ku could end up having the # 1 recruiting class in 25.

    Now I don’t think have any commits yet right ? - -So I’m guess projection about guys we re pretty involved with. maybe – Peterson - - -Sebastian - if hey perhaps land this Bundalo would go a long ways towards that. Were in on some good ones, not sure how many Scholi’s we are going to have, do you know ? - -Glad to see we are getting a visit from the kid, nice size



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 Recruiting:

    Sure seems like a 2 big class

    How many Scholi’s we gonna have you know bud ?



  • Doesn’t hurt that him and Peterson are going to be team mates for sure. If we land these two- - -woul be sweet and possibly William – very sweet



  • @jayballer67 plenty. Moore, Dickinson, Harris, Adams, Mayo, and Coit will all be out of eligibility. Storr likely pro. Plus, the limit will go to 15 (13 now). We’ll finish the penalty so we’ll be able to use 14. So we have only a handful of returnees. My guess, we add 9-10?

    Mercy I’m sur w will be really active in the portal again , 3 possibly 4 high school , going to look different again for sure if it turns out to be the case

    Yeah my guess is right around 9. Gonna be a huge class.



  • The limit goes to 15?!? Hmm not much penalty to losing a scholarship or 3 then. Wow.



  • @dylans said in 2025 Recruiting:

    Guessing most schools won’t hit it most years



  • @BShark need the $$$



  • @dylans from my understanding a big part of them going or raising the limit to 15 was all part of the house settlement



  • finding out today that Sebastian’s mom lives in Wichita , & Sebastian considers the Sum Flower State his State , & talked about how he loved the environment at KU- - Zagsblog said that KU was in a really god spot with Sebastian , Sounds good to me-- Also hearing w are in good shape with Tiller was said they think it’s down between Indiana and KU for Tillee



  • SWA DP and bundalo and we’re cooking



  • @rcjhdraft said in 2025 Recruiting:

    SWA DP and bundalo and we’re cooking

    Bryson Tiler would be nice also. As been mentioned if we are going to try and bring in 8-9 players those four would be great



  • @jayballer67 Yea seems like we got a lot of options right now. Didn’t even mention Greer or haralson who are both visiting



  • @rcjhdraft said in 2025 Recruiting:

    @jayballer67 Yea seems like we got a lot of options right now. Didn’t even mention Greer or haralson who are both visiting

    Think we aer out for Haralson - -looks like could be Kentucky



  • Keyshaun Tillery.

    We see you. Join the fam.

    Looking like one to pay attention to for visit and interest



  • @BeddieKU23 said in 2025 Recruiting:

    Him or Denis as the PG/CG. Frank Mason comp thrown around on Tillery.



  • @BeddieKU23 visit locked in. At this point I’d be a little surprised if he didn’t commit



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in 2025 Recruiting:

    I’m hopeful you are right. His film is fun and reminiscent of some past guards billy Eugene has coached. We will definitely need some guards after this season and this looks like a good one to keep after. Any clue if others are a significant threat with him?



  • @BeddieKU23 Nova KU battle but assuming we press …



  • @BShark

    Have to like our chances there, since Nova is struggling a bit without Jay.



  • This post is deleted!


  • Been doing some catching up, & I think we play this right- – if we can close , this could be a very special season in recruiting.

    people are saying we will have large number to fill. you figure Williams looks like he might pop this weekend - -Unless I missed something Peterson sounds like he is very , very likely for us. – - - -Was reading from Rivals And Cassidy was Ku made a HUGE splash during his visit and that w have to be the perceived leader right now,-- Saying of Course U Conn & Indiana will still be in play and have big Nil war chests, and with he ay he has been moving and cancelling visits they think he is trying to ge this closed out - -Then if it turns out we sold happen to take Greer- -that’s a pretty dam solid big class in those four alone, little lone the portal - -could be SWEET – let’s d this Bill



  • I don’t know for sure BUT w have taken a hit in our 3035 recruiting. – I wondered over the weekend if something had happened , sure sounds like someone or someone’s got him pissed off by running their mouths about how it was a done deal , and how he verbally committed to us- - he came out with what appeared to be a pretty straight forward response saying that he HAAD NOT COMMITTED and his recruitment was still open.

    Ho HE would be the one to let people know when things were done. Just appears he got pissed running their mouths and pissed him off --he may – and now may not be a Jay Hawk like people thought.

    Now of course since this has came out saying – -oh w didn’t want him anyways, we can get better then him , he is not that good-- Typical bullshit from people when a player doesn’t end up coming. --Bullshit I can guarantee you Self would take him in a – People need to pull the reins in a little and don’t let their mouths overload their ass, and NO this is not ABOUT ANYONE HERE SO DON’T GET YOUR FEATHRS RUFFLED… just saying that he is now saying he is taking ALL his visits and Texis A & M - - and Auburn very much in play

    Again the thing that kills me is as soon as it becomes clear he MAY end up some where else- -Immediately----- -oh well we didn’t want him anyways- - he is ove rated-- he isn’t that good. - just typial bull shit respones- -we may have fucked up



  • Saw London Jemison is announcing his choice this Saturday at 2:30 CT according to Jamie Shaw from on 3

    Final three Schools Alabama – Louisville – & KU . Solid player, think he would be quality relief, not sure he would start.- - inbetween 6’7 — -6’8 - -I’d take him with s many spots as it looks like e will have, would be solid addition.- – Does he commit to KU ?— I just got this feeling he will-- hope I’m wrong land in Alabama

    Anybody have thoughts if he lands here or not ?



  • Just curious , I know we are recruiting Eric Reibe the seven footer , here is my question. -Right after his visit to KU he Cancelled his visits to UNC & UK - -yesterday I read a U Conn article saying looks like the leader for landing Bandolo - -something like that , I know not spelled right but you get the point. Same position as Eric , U Conn had been another School that was recruiting Eric.

    So just a random thought , With Eric cancelling the two visits , and U Conn thinking they have this other --is this a good sign for us landing Eric ?



  • Name I hadn’t heard in awhile , I knew was were in the mix for him just hadn’t heard a lot lately . - -Coach Self visited Bryson Tiller the other day I guess and is suppose to have another in home visit with him coming up— pretty solid player



  • 🟥🟦



  • Is KU in a good position with AJ Dybantsa or has that ship sailed?



  • @dylans said in 2025 Recruiting:

    BYU still



  • @BShark

    Safe to assume he’s resetting the market



  • @BeddieKU23 said in 2025 Recruiting:

    He’s a unique talent but it will have other parents/handlers delusional I’m sure.



  • Is Reibe a Creighton “lock”? Or is he still a possibility? I see there is a star article about him today, but rivals (I think) has him at 100% Creighton in their predictor.



  • UCONN probably



  • Yeah UConn is the leader according to most reports



  • @dylans

    UConn seems to have won that one. Staff seems like they are pivoting to Sylla



  • @BeddieKU23 said in 2025 Recruiting:

    just seen him yesterday for the first time. Talked about ho his recruitment had started out slowly , but how that had changed, & Ku and a couple of others had gotten in early on him He is a big boy I think 6’10 pretty thick looks like -might not be as developed as much as /Riebe right now but coming along - -hope things work out.



  • Well read sounds like some pretty interesting /god news if it turns out to be true this Moening.- Jamie Shaw from ON Three is predicting KU will land two - - -five star recruits & possibly a third.

    One we know about and have known about for some time , that one being Peterson the # 3 player on 247- -then Jamie is also predicting that KU will land /tiller - -the # 20 player on 247.

    Jamie also said that KU is dangerous in the hunt for Ament , saying KU very much in the hunt for Ament. I had heard some rumors but I guess we might be in deeper with him then I thought. - -This is all FWIW but if it turns out to be right I’d be a happy camper , time will tell
