2024 Portal Madness Thread
-
Doesn’t excuse the case he had hanging over his head when they took his commitment. It was even unclear if Morris would play at all, be suspended etc during the summer before the trip to the Bahamas. I still don’t understand what Bill was thinking here and never will
-
Iowa St freshman Omaha Billew in, KU recruited him a good bit and he had a disappointing season playing behind many seasoned vets. This guy will be a problem in a few years for opponents
-
@BeddieKU23 rather have kwame Evans as a high ceiling PF option if he enters the portal

I doubt he ever amounts to much actually.

Will be interesting to monitor. He’s got the size and athletic traits to figure it.

And so domino #1 has fallen

Don’t get the Riley kugel thing. We are a top 5 program all time, top 3 active coach, huge NIl group, top adidas school. We are landing a guy that didn’t even average 10 pts at a big time school. Sure he has upside but why is Ku reaching on a guy like that. Self and staff really blew it last year in the portal. Lets hope they figure it out this year

This is who you know should really be pissed about KU signing because this is who really kept KU from potentially signing someone like an LJ Cryer or other 2’s that could’ve made a real difference this season.

KU also needs depth and guys that can come off the bench and Kugel seems like a solid bench piece that can sub at multiple spots. If this is who the staff is expecting to replace McCullar, then it’s a bit disappointing, but if he’s being brought in with the idea of him being a 6th man type player, this is a solid pick up.
He’s not McCullar good on defense, but he is a plus defender.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Cryer was never coming here he returned home to play with his good friend from growing up….
-
I just get this feel that there is going to be in the end A LOT of movement. - -I think fairly good chance Furphy is gone, Very easily Dickinson is gone–Clemance gone— Mc Dowell gone-- & Jackson gone
If that turns out all of these then Would love to see this come to realization : If we could some how swing McNeely to take Johnny’s spot - - Cliff to take Dickinsons spot- - Maybe still get Mayo - -to go with Kugel- -would be solid

-
Temple Guard Hysier Miller in, avg 15ppg.
Illinois big Dain Dainja in, wouldn’t be a bad bench option big.
-
Northern Illinois guard David Coit in, avg 20ppg this year. Film shows he’s got a bag of options, can really get his own on the perimeter
-
@BeddieKU23 the knock against Dain was defense. He’s kind of a cool guy, good interview and such. His offense seems pretty limited, throws his size around for position.
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 Could you just tell us what the tweets say instead?
-
Definitely not a defensive upgrade. Wouldn’t be a bad bench option. Started at Baylor. He impressed at times but consistency seemed to be all over the place.

Fits the mold for Tang lately. Tiny scoring guard.
