Just curious what happened?
-
Sexton is signing tomorrow and it sounds like the coach is making a final push to change his mind. I’m not going to hold my breath, but everyone had Trump counted out last night and Ayton singed here or was it Kentucky. Guess I better check the crystal ball.
The article covers Sexton, Young, Preston, https://basketballrecruiting.rivals.com/news/signing-day-blog-five-star-young-planning-to-wait-it-out

I’ve been saying it off and on for awhile, but KU was never the leader for any of the players committing in the fall with the exception of Ayton who surprised most people by not going with KU.
The reason why Self struggles with fall commits is because there’s usually too many question marks with the roster in the fall. The roster questions usially start to clear up in January nd February, so KU usually has a much better shot at spring signees anyway.

@Ralph UMM ya why don’t you do that sparky, get back with us let us know what ya found out rotflmmfao, I’ll be waiting. - - - - - can hardly wait. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I’ve been saying that for a few months now. I don’t think any of the top talent will sign till they know or have a better idea what Bragg and Graham are going to do. Febuary, March time frame.
As with Ayton you never know what’s going to happen. Just a little glimmer of hope for Sexton
-
@Ralph thx, sparky! Jk
-

I’m not worried. Bill finds ways to land talent.
We continue to increase our overall recruiting prestige (school, coach, training, lifestyle)…

Wooten seems to have seriously interest. I can see why he would, he signed with Nevada and now has one of the best teams in the land after him.
I’m not sure he’s anywhere close to an impact signing but we’ll need bodies and his video’s seems to have a good amount of athleticism that can be worked with.
I’d love to see Self/the staff close hard on Wooten. He has said the only visit he knows he will take for sure is KU, so there is that.
As far as impact, he recently said he plans to redshirt his first year. Also it’s apparently possible that he commits and then enrolls at the semester.

It’s Bama.

He made a VIP post earlier that basically said it’s done to Bama. But yeah that tweet was funny.

What we’ve known for freaking weeks when he visited Bama again. Sometimes I just don’t get the guy

He was drumming up hits. Overall though, I think he’s a good guy.
-
Sexton is a tough miss, fit Self’s style extremely well. Bama has been on him forever though. Same with Wake and Chaundee. Too bad KU couldn’t close in the same situation (Ayton).
-
I think that is what is most frustrating about recruiting for KU.
-
@BShark well, on a positive note, at least he’s not going to UK or Duke. Alabama probably won’t be much of a threat nationally next year.

Oh definitely. UK and Duke closed some of their heavy leans today.

They should be good. We are about to find out a lot about Avery Johnson as a coach.

Live on ESPN…#8 Gary Trent to Duke…

Just like Richards to UK this has been done for a looooooong time.
-
KU never really recruited Trent or Knox because the staff knew it was a waste of time.
-
Did not say KU was recruiting him, just reporting the ESPN Recruit Special…Sexton is next…
-
I was just mentioning it because early on I believe KU popped up as preliminary interest. But obviously not heavily involved of course.
-
Sexton to Alabama…not much of a surprise…

Yep. Unfortunate but no suspense at least.
Let’s hope Quade Green goes to Kentucky.
-
Jerry Meyer cb picked Duval to Kansas. Also in general rumours swirling that now that KU missed on Sexton they will pursue Duval with more vigor. Buckle up fellas.
Also I believe it was mentioned before but Tilmon isn’t signing with Illinois. KU could definitely get back in there.
