@wissox83 Yes.. we "rent a player" for one year periods. But doesn't that mean we have an opportunity to win them over as true Jayhawks in that one year? From this last year, I zero in on Melvin... that guy acted more like a Jayhawk than many 4-year, old school players. Wish he had another year of eligibility... not only in hopes he would stay a Jayhawk but test if he was that influenced by Kansas during his stay. We will never know the answer to that one.
CBB has changed. We don't have any other option except to accept it or leave. I was still attracted to March Madness... I think I just have to recondition my thinking to build my fanaticism around a 1-year clock only. I will accept supporting our team on a 12-month clock. Then, hopefully, continue the same practice in following years.

If Missouri offers millions to a guy who has minimal Round 1 opportunity in the future, I got no problem with that someone making a financial decision. Days of an athlete wearing his letter sweater back home at the shake shop with everyone sitting in awe of him are quite over.

I think the distinction with Bonke and Thiam is the latter would be a surefire starter and the former they would like as a rotation piece. Bonke is looking for a starting role it sounds. If Thiam does visit that is promising and hopefully we could close there. Apparently getting him isn't exclusive to giving his handler a job anymore so that's also important. Thiam would be a very exciting player to match with Dawes and would be pretty thrilled if it ends up that way
Yeah Bonke is taking a world tour so he will find somewhere that will have him start.

@mayjay Missouri doesn't have enough money to lure me there in any capacity. Muck Fizzou.

2 more visitors for Monday.
Former LSU and Oklahoma St guard Vyctorious Miller and former Duke/Clemson/College of Charleston Center Christian Reeves are coming.
Miller is a former target from HS and interested to see how that one ends up. Averaged 10ppg on 37% from 3, 85% FT. Great Size for a guard, Capable ball handler and passer. I thought we’d look at him last cycle and would like to see him here as our main backup guard.
Reeves started at Duke, had some injuries derail things. Had a breakout yr for College of Charleston. Was an efficient scorer, rebounded and rim protected well. Excellent size at 7'2

Any intel on the Blyden visit?

@Jayhawk_69 if all goes well he’ll be a Hawk
-
Reeves would not be a top choice for me. Not a starter anyways.

Landing Miller could get KU a fun Late Night performance if his dad and uncle wanted to show up and perform.

Thiam visiting Michigan on Monday. Doesn't sound promising for KU

Should we be worried that the day has come and gone without news of a commitment from Blyden?
