Recruiting Notes

Seems like holt is the main Adidas guy we’re targeting for this cycle along with Ethan Taylor. Coleman would be a developmental type, played really well in peach jam
-
Deron Rippey and Bruce Branch 3 and I’m on the moon.
-
@SlimShaddy54 these are all 26 guys right? Next year guys
-
@rcjhdraft Well getting conflicting reports, as to where we stand with Holt. Just read an article with Holt saying the # 6 player and is starting to map out his next steps and is locking up his official visits, /he has set visits with Kentucky on (Sept 12 )—Alabama (Oct 3rd ) - -& Auburn on (Oct 10th ) With Holt being an Alabama Native.
Yet here is the discouraging part saying Holt talked with 247 to break down his recruitment,- ----and time line and top Schools STILL INVOLVED in his recruitment and KU is not listed and KU was not mentioned still involved in his recruitment.
Other Schools still in the mix other then the three listed are according to Holt are : - Houston – - -Baylor- – - Ole Miss-- --Arkansas – - & Providence. So from that sounds like we are out for Holt .
-
@approxinfinity no , these are guys that I have listed lately anyways are players they are still trying to fill out this years roster
-
Tajh Ariza

-

Most likely due to the Tony Bland hire, hopefully will see many more coming our way.
-
Ariza and Brandon McCoy…I need em Bland
-
Is this for 2026? Ha, I’m still not convinced we’re done recruiting for this season!
-
Yes for 26
-
Who knew by adding Bland things would get so spicy?
-
@approxinfinity Har har. Now that’s a dad joke.
-
Was a fan of Trevor Ariza’s game. Not long ago.
-
do we know how seious we might be in for Ariza yet ?
-
Taylen Kinney is one to watch I think now. Not saying we land him but I think Coach likes him.

Has a visit set up for end of September. May not know until then if we will be a serious player with him when they can negotiate NIL and what not.

Still really hard to see him leaving the state of Kentucky but as @FarmerJayhawk always says, KU puts on a helluva visit.
-
@BeddieKU23 KU is believed to be the favorite for Ariza at this time.

Taylen Kinney…

Read today where we now are the perceived leader to land Trey Kinnet Louisville had been considered the favorite for a long time but KANSAS made a big push and is considered the leader # one point guard in the Nation according by 247- --# Thirteen player overall, this report comir from Shaw from ON 3 pretty reputable and coming from Kentucky Board
-
I’m excited to see the reaction from the boomer portion of the fanbase if Kinney commits. Very fun player
-
@rcjhdraft It more likey comes from Kentucky as is/was a heavy lean to Louisville & Kentucky pushing hard for him. Noth Louisville made late , late in home visits after it came out from Joe Tiption that KU is the perveived leader. With him cancelling visits people are thinking his decision is coming soon
-
@rcjhdraft How would the boomers react and why?
-
-
Staff has been really busy- -bust month for visitors :- -Josh Irving this weekend 6 ft 10 four star - – - -Sept 19th big time Maximo Adams coming in - - -KU , Michigan St - - -Kentucky ,- - -n Carol ,- - --Texas - -& Duke $ Star
Sept 226th is the biggest probably Damion Adkins coming in - - -was down to his final six was announcing his visits and then Cancelled visits now down to three- - KU- – Houston-- -& Rutgers -sounds like very interested in KU – —Tajh Ariza— here is where Tony Bland comes in play— Like within a couple hours after Bland was hired at KU Tajh announced a visit to KU-- Bland Coached Tajh for 2 years, Might not mean anything— then again migh be huge, he would be a awesome get.- -Then also we got Ethan Taylor coming in , Taylor been on campus many times- -better yet this one is an official, his Schools are Michigan St-----KU ----OU-- -Oregon— -Kentucky- --& Indiana I think we sit really good with him too actually hope things work out-- lots of promising talent coming in-- -got to close the deal on some of these- --Tajh and Ethan would be sweet
