@BeddieKU23 True might be at that. --IF we by chance would happen to land him I think would be a really good fit with Darryn, Pit him in tthe line up with Darryn , & Flory & himself really makes this team sweet.–Add Council in some where would be nice.
Get our back up big would be food to go. I think Kohl shot like 43 % from the three , that’s a bonus. I gursss he has said he will be making a commitment soon and re-class remains a strong possibility. said he will probably commit sometime this week…
I would think hopefully good news because he committing this weeks chances are more then not he had cancelled his other visits with Texas A & M and Caylor and others. You put that together with he is just coming off his visit here means has to be good right ?- Might be reading to much into this we shall see
-
43% from 3? Man. All worth the wait seems like.
-
Who knew? A winning fantasy strat saving cabbage til the end could be a winner irl too
-
@BeddieKU23 said in The portal.:
Eyes on Rosario. Lots of optimism there
Believe that he signed today.
-
That’s correct, hopefully its announced official soon… been a while between good news
-
@BeddieKU23 So guess he re classified then for 2025 ?
-
Travis Brenham 247 recruiting put in his CB for /kohl at 7;1p.m tonight to KU
-
Alrighty then, bring on that big fella from overseas and we’re getting somewhere.
-
How excited should I be about Old King Kohl?
-
@Jhawk69 you should be a merry old soul?

Bench piece. If he means Samis doesn’t have to play that’s a win imo
-
@BShark so are we still down a starting wing then?

The starting line-up has been set for months

I hope we can get a starter with size next to Flory. If not, it’ll be everybody at what, 6-5, and Flory at 6-9?
Weird for a team that may not be strong from 3 pt land.
-
Tre at 6-7 right? Couldn’t tell you how big he plays though.
Give up some top end size but looks to be an extremely switchable lineup so not all bad.
-
Rosario has signed with KU and it’s official. Nice work shutting down his other visits and getting him signed. Decent shot at carving a role as a freshman as a wing shooter. We’ll see if he can defend anyone.
Demir is still working on eligibility, Mbiya is eligible… Sounds like one of them is more likely then both. Also sounds like one of them is more likely then Konan.
-
@BShark Jackson or Council looking likely to start? Or both and its Dawson is the 1st off the bench.
Had noticed some buzz that Elmarko Jackson is looking good this summer, but nothing specific so was curious if anyone else was hearing the same.
-
Hearing Elmarko has been really good and could push to start. Dawson is a really good 6th man if needed.
-
@BeddieKU23 I myself would love Myiba, the kid is really solid. Defends the rim well things starting to shape up. Also I think Tre is a solid player to might surprise some.

yea i’m in the dark on Tre’s game as well. I thought i read somewhere that he was really 6-5. Hopefully he can rebound at whatever his size/spot on the floor.
Hopefully if Tiller is serviceable, that will help give us some size.
I still have nightmares from those USC freaks…

Elmarko was going to start last year before he got hurt which is one of the reasons I’m much higher in him than most others. It’s also why Self hasn’t pushed as hard for a PG in the portal the way he has for the 2-4 spots.

Evan Mobley was the 3rd pick in the draft. You don’t run up against players like him very often.
-
Answering multiple questions here
Tre White should start at the four.
I have the starting line-up as DP, Elmarko, Council, White, Flory based on early practice reports. Dawson will play a lot whether he starts or not.
-
Really starting to like these pieces we have. We have nice interchangeabe pieces in the back court. we have length in the back court.-- The team as a whole is very athletic- I think the defense is going to cause teams trouble.
Been hearing really good things on Council and Marcus, heard Marcus has really raised his game
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 ive watched the near perfect game durant had against us several times where we still beat him. Also, we shut down Flagg didnt we? Granted that was early in the season, before he got good and we got bad. Anyway, yeah Mobley was special.
-
Geez, what happened to the posse lookin’ to tar and feather that varmint who can’t 'cruit nor coach no more?
-
@mayjay He took all the tar and turned the chickens into pets
-
@SlimShaddy54 He is pretty clever, ain’t he, that fine-feathered friend of our’n!

KJ shut shut down Flagg, KJ wasn’t on the team when Mobley helped end that season.
-
I’m happy about this addition and feeling very positive on the team potential. We should have a more athletic team than the past years and possess solid defensive capabilities. For those worried about height… I’d rather have athleticism and long wing spans. Should be a very difficult team to beat anytime we bring energy!
-
Sounding like Mbiya will be a Hawk soon
-
@mayjay Lmao, I admit I not 100 % innocent, start sweating little gold nuggets when we start so many misses turn into one Big nervous Nancy lol. Like always Coach out his rabbits foot and BAM we just fine
-
@BeddieKU23 that would be nice
-
Bill Self big dawging Will Wade. You love to see it
-
@Kcmatt7 If Mbyia commits here, it’s not because Self outbid Wade. Mbyia got recruited over plain and simple. NC State allegedly took some of Mbyia’s NIL money and reallocated for Van Lubin who they coveted more and Mbyia left when NC State landed Scottie Ebube from Wyoming.
-
Finally, a much needed big man! Gimme a mobile 4 and I’ll feel pretty dang good about the team.
-
Some really great news!!! Kohl reminds me of Nick Collison and can’t wait to watch what Jacque does now with all the talent.
-
In what way does Kohl remind you of Nick Collison?
-
Mbiya is a Jayhawk. Big time add at needed position
-
@Jhawk69 His height, demeanor and ability to get to the rim. He seems to be KJ like with lobs though. Just initially thought that while watching his tapes
-
@RockChalkinTexas Lot better rebounder then KJ- --Lot better rim protector-- much longer wing span 7’9.-- -kinda raw , still learning he has been playing ball for three years.- -gotta little post up move --and your right he loves to try and tear down the rim at all times.
One thing about it is he is not going to have to come in and have the entire load on his shoulders. Like I read from another site actually all he needs to o is rebound, score some and defend the rim right now, spell flory a bit and be able to learn the system.
