@Jayhawk_69 don’t listen to anyone except Tyran on committing or a timeline. Almost no chance he does it without announcing a date and setting up a whole dog and pony show with CBS or ESPN
sounds about right.
I can see the ESPN promos now ... and now, sponsored by Purina Dog Chow ... the Tyran Stokes commitment show!

The issue is that this was supposed to be regulated but it basically hasn’t been. Collectives aren’t supposed to exist anymore.
Whole thing is a mess.
I don't think the NCAA is wise to step into regulating private NIL. The lawsuits will come and I don't see how this is their jurisdiction of control.
-
@FarmerJayhawk think we still have a chance?
-
I feel certain the Stokes decision will come down this week. Both UK and KU... the loser loses bigger now as the options dwindle.
-
@crimsonblu22 yeah I think we get him
-
@FarmerJayhawk like the positivity!

Thought experiment: Would you rather Stokes commit or would you rather 5for5 pass and Tre White return?
-
Stokes
-
Say it ain't so
-
well, anybody heard the word yet?
-
Do you suppose Bill has reason to believe that the NCAA will grant Melvin Council an extra year and is holding a spot for him?

Think moreso the opposite. He is unlikely to get another year and that's why he entered the portal just in case.

How about both?

5 for 5 won’t be retroactive so that’s off the table barring a court decision

Dispositive of very little, but KU is not in the updated ESPN and CBSSports top 25 next season rankings - includes portal decisions as of yesterday and expected returnees (from NBA draft exploration). Is there another year in which KU has not been ranked in the preseason in the Self or Williams era (other than perhaps the first for the latter)??? Reflection of how little regard there is for what little we have coming back and coming in. We'll see whether that changes if Stokes ends up committing. At least we should still be better than our in-state brethren...

He loves us

He loves us not.

He loves us...

I don't really care because aint no freshman gonna lead us to the promised land thats for sure.

Much like KU hiring Ed Manning as an assistant coach, Kentucky is supposedly offering Stokes' mentor/high school assistant coach, Jamal Crawford an assistant job.
