2025 recruits - - -starting off well
-
Well starting off really well for 2025. - -We got our verbal today from Malachi Curvey , projected for linebacker here at KU - -has been playing some tight end but defense here. - -Pretty night pick up. Dad played for Iowa State, but said he wasn’t going to interfere with his sons recruitment. - He is a composite 4 * - but 247 says he is 3 * but very good player.
Rated as the # 278 player in the nation according to the composite 3rd best out of Iowa–around Des Moines. - -One of the best things about it, we took him from other offers from – -Missouri - - Iowa State- - & K/State - no better Schools to win a recruitment – great pick up
Add him to our QB commit - -David McComb - out of Oklahoma ranked as the # 453 Player-- -things starting off well
-
Hope we can hold on to these guys. It’s awful early.

Me too bud, it’s always going to be a challenge. Long time to go before they officially commit. - -I think Mc Comb is pretty solid on his verbal, just a hunh but from what has beed reported , sounds like h is pretty committed.- - -Actually same with Curvey- - -after he made his last trip to Lawrence he shut his recruitment down , think he is pretty sold on the staff, visted multiple times. -we can hope.
-
Pick up a commit tonight. - -RB out of Texas , not ranked right now but he will be. - - john Kelly , picked Ku over 18 other offfers - - Arizona - -Duke - - -Texas Tech - - -Missouri , will be decent player for us

Oh I could only hope this would transfer into bigger things lol , doubtful but we can hope
-
Well were still in the hunt. Linkon Cure Named his four official visits , he announced Texas A & m - --Oregon - - Ku- -& K/State ,were still in the mix. Doesn’t hurt anything that his older brother just joined the team as a Walk on.
Gonna be a battle to the end I think , either gonna come down to KU/K State, I think K/State might have the lead just a little right now , but it over til the fat Lady sings and she isn’t even in the building right now.- # 2 TE rated, would be a massive land if it happens
-
Heard on the news tonight Linkon is now a 5 star.
-
Sounds like they think he’s a ksu wildcat
-
Big weekend for the Staff.Got a pretty good size group coming in for visits this weekend. -I would love to get 3-4 commits out of this group , some big time targes coming in. --Give them Hell Coach, got some real studs coming in - -Let’s do this- - -ROCK CHALK

And were of - -great start in the recruiting this weekend. - Got the commit from Ju, Ju -from Olathe South I believe.
Can’t ask for better start hid ofer list was insane. - -over 30 offers , a 4 * recruit , offensive tackle some other schools o him was Florida , Alabama , //////Georgia , N Dame , USC , Michigan , Oklahoma- --Let’s do this
-
KU got a commitment from 3* TE Joeseph Skipworth out of Florida today. Ranked just outside the top 1000 nationally in the 24/7 Composite and the 53 ranked TE overall.
-
Dang , been a really good weekend for Coach L & the staff this weekend. Ku has picked up THREE commits today, and had rose up to the # 52 ranked class before we picked up our third commit today.
We got a commit out of Garrett Martin a DE today – - A Commit from Brandon Schmeizie from Axtel Ks Today who is a ?Safety – and just like 15 minutes ago we got a commit from Kenyon Rivera a LB, who I like a lot who also had offers from Michigan - -Tennessee - -Texas - - & Teas A & M to name a few - - - Also got a commit from Adrain Holley Saturday - Coach L and the boys not playing - nd then again we got Bryce Foster to commit this weekend through the portal - -Been a HUGE Weekend for the guys - -ROCK CHALK
-
Counting Foster we’re at 6 commits this weekend is that good
-
Incredible weekend for Lance and the boys
-

Lance and the guys putting in the work. Very Happy, Foster was a Big pickup & Rivera pretty sweet also
-
We are sitting at # 48 ranking s of this moment, I think we an end up a little higher yet
-
WOW - -another one. Swain says this gives us eleven commitments not counting Foster -and it’s our what fourth commit today and fifth with out foster for the weekend.
This weekend ew got Martin - Holley - - - Schmeizie- — -Rivera - &— Hammond- - - then of Course Foster. --Count Foster and that is SIX commits to KU football this weekend - - GIVE THEM HELL LANCE, -Dam have I told you guys how much I love this staff , lol.
Just within the last like twenty minutes we ot Hammond----Defensive Line, Lanc really getting after the Defensive side of the ball. We got Hamond over Arizona - --Utah – Houston - - Washington-- & Iowa State
2 Linebackers - - - 2 Defensive Ends - - - A Safety - - -And Defensive Lineman- - -gotta love it. - -We took a big jump in National Rankings with Hammond , ew went from 48th - -to 41st-- not to bad - - We are right in the Middle of the Big 12 --wel 16 really lol – we are Sitting 8th right behind UCF - ROCK CHALK
-
Mercy , remember when we struggled to get ONE kid to commit, or kid that got no D-1 offers ?-- - - now look , we competing with on some of these kids going against the Michigan’s – Alabama-- -Texas and such, I mean sure I realize that times these othr schools might kin of back off but still to even be in the same Ballpark with these guys- Show how far we have come in three years, Lance and Staff has worked miracles with this past laughingstock – -You don’t see them laughing at KU anymore now do you – Just think if this staff knew how to recruit – I mean that was suppose to be Lance weakness , he couldn’t recruit , I think he hs done a prety decent job myself. – ROCK CHALK.
Wondre what next weekend will bring in to us? - -Anyone know how many Scholi’s we have available ?

Prety good weekend & Rivera & Hammond probably the cream this weekend.
-
For sure. Getting so many players on the defensive side of the ball is exciting, but Foster seems like a huge need for us at center.

Veery , Very true. I wasn’t thinking 24 recruits for some reason today , even though he did commit this weekend & he is a massive pickup. I think our O-Line will be one of the better O-Lines in the Conference , which should be a real bonus for us in protecting Jalon & our backs. You give Daniels any protection are pretty good he gonna make a big play.He is pretty dam accurate throwing the dep ball down the middle and can run also pretty well I just have a feeling he gonna play a full year this being his last yr.–Ya Foster nickname Mountain–fits well 6’5 & 330. Thats a grown man and then some
-
Dang I just found out , didn’t realize that there is a kid that think just very easily could end up when all said and done , could very easily commit to KU , a Wide receive who’s name is Tate Nagy , which goes to show how bright I am lol.
Turns out this Tate Nagy is the Son of Matt? Nagy , the Offensive Coordinator for the KC Chiefs, and use to be the head Coach of the Chicago ---- pretty cool , Tate used to be a QB for Blue Valley but came to camps, KU had him come to two & offered as he started running at Wide Receiver - KU liked what they saw an offered sa a Wide Receiver.
-
Well weekend off to good start. Got our first commit this weekend . Jackson Cook a WR 3 * announced today, was in for a mid week visit - - good start
Was listening to Shay on the Jay Hawk Slant podcast and he said could be another big weekend, said still a lot of possibilities might be looking at seven more
Possibilities could be - -Gabe Daniel’s- - Brock Heath - -Bryson Williams- -I know this isn’t spelt right, probably far from it but anyways Laruse Zamarono - -which is a 4 * down to either KU or Washington - future is bright my friend - hope this is another great weekend
-
got our 2nd commit of this Weekend-- - - - Darrion CJ Jones-- pretty good get. - -Rock Chalk
-
Got our third commit of the Weekend , the third Kansas kid of this Season — making in roads in State----- - Tate Nagy son of Matt Nagy’s KC Chiefs offensive coordinator – gotta love it - - were not done yet , w still got two mor that I know of they feel really good about. – -Watch for Gabe Daniels announcing on the 29th of June – and a bigger one on the 13th of July -really hope we can land this one Mulzz Toumkara–man I hope we land him – -ROCK CHALK
-
Hey Farmer if anyone knows I’m sure you would. - -What has happened to our 2025 recruiting - -seems like we hit a brick wall. -Started off well then nothing , I know we missed out on a few of WR that we thought we were good with but didn’t make it. – I know they were saying they was shooting for 18 commits BEFORE the Portal, we hit 13 and bam --just curious
-
@jayballer67 just missed on a couple guys. It’s some NIL, some staff turnover
-
KU has lost their top recruit JuJu Marks to Nebraska who flipped over the weekend.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Bummer, could 2-5 record be the reason
-

Things are really picking up, specifically at WR
-

Should have 2 more commits in the next week or so
-
@FarmerJayhawk looks like we got them , sweet weekend. --We flipped Hayes from Nebraska- -Then w got three CB’S- -for our 4 * out of Calif - -Jaden- -N - -Both WR’s got to love that, were gonna need em
-
Trevor is a redshirt.
-
Well we got Jeden Nickens 4 * WR out of California , great PU - -surprised KU offered him in Basketball though also - - Choose KU over Cal , Georgia , Okla St-& Texas A & M to name a few - -ranked as the 29th best overall WR in the class --w can use him
-
I guess I’m wrong about Trevor.
-
Nice to see we got a flip from Norte Dame- — -lanky/lean RB–think they might e trying to play him as WR , decent speed, hopefully works as w gonna need receives
-
Heard we had Sevent recruits in this weekend for the Colorado game. They had to be impressed, great time to have them in, just can’t believe how much this program has improved.- -Hasn’t been that long ago that we struggled to even get recruits to return phone calls
We could of been easily 11-1 this season if we hadn’t beat ourselves with crazy turnovers latte or costly mistakes.- - 5 out of the 6 losses came late where we were leading going into the 4th quarter. The way the guys stuck with it during this last five game stretch has been Awesome.
Next Yr is going to be a real challenge.- - Who is going to be our new QB ?- -who are going to be our RB’S ?- -our Receivers ? - lots of questioned, going to be a challenge to maintain to where we have gotten. I have faith Coach L & Staff will keep us just fine
-
@SlimShaddy54 Jalon Daniels has one more year if he wants to come back. Hishaw and Morrison should be back at RB. Doug Emilien is the only receiver with any kind of experience coming back, and KU should be returning 3/5 of the OLine (C, RG, RT) so it won’t be totally bare next season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 it was said during pre Baylor game show that Hishaw wasn’t w/team. Hurt or gone?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Pretty sure he’s still dealing with an injury.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 ya not totally bare , do you think Jalen will come back?- - I really just don’t think he will, Not sure what else he will do , just don’t think he will make a NFL Roster , good College QB but - - – - and with our in experienced receivers- I don’t know just have to wait and see.
I just think Marshall will beat out Ballard in spring practice. Gonna be young and no game time but everything I’ve read and heard he is just another version of Jalen- - maybe a little better as time goes on , talented player was recruited pretty heavily. Mercy I don’t know what’s gonna happen.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I read an article this afternoon Coach said HiShaw was not with the team and that Daniel was dealing with a family issue outside the football program
-
Not KU related but Linkon Cure is flipping from KSU to Oregon lolololol
-
@FarmerJayhawk Think we saw that coming didn’t we lol , they got some issues going on-- locker room issues , Staff issues- -trouble in kitty town
-
@SlimShaddy54 oh yeah. Rumor is it’s an entire offensive staff shakeup
-
Tell you what I’m afraid of and that is KU is going to fall right in line with so many other Schools. With the rule or limitation with the roster like going from in the past of more around 124 now having to be at 105 then the way the portal has become and the NIL- - I think we are going to fall right in line.
Unfortunately I’m afraid we are going to see mass departures from Walk on’s PWO’s , redshirts – kids that feel like they want to go where they have a better chance of seeing game time earlier- like I have read your going to be seeing kids forced out because staff having to deal with the new limitations on the roster.
The portal isn’t even open for another week the 9th and your already seeing some pretty decent players declaring to transfer.- - the 5 * wide receiver from Texas Tech , a couple of what looks like decent QB’s - Rickie Collins from LSU-- -Anthony Colundrea from Virginia, - -I just think we are going to lose some quality players. - -Like I feel there is a strong chance we lose Marshall if we bring in another QB - in the 25 class , lose either him or McCombs from the 26 class. - -They have just made a huge mess out of this , -just turned the portal into like a game show – -Let’s make a Deal-- , just a big meat markeet
