-
So, someone fill me in - - -whz going on at Virginia? – -Yesterday Shayok - - -Reuter announced they transferring out – & now today Thompson announces he is transferring out - - WTH is going on there? - - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Smells like a coach leaving for another job perhaps.
Interesting post from BHam if you didn’t see it. Mentioned that more than anything Self/KU doesn’t want to deal with Waters’ dad.
-
@BShark You think Bennett might be leaving Virginia? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Garret was selected the Texas Gatorade Player of the Year. BTW, he is listed as 6’-8" now.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I freaking LOVE that kid. I am so glad we got him instead of Trae Young.
-
Well you can add another player to the list. – not only Porter leaving Washington but - – Noah Dickerson is looking to transfer and explore possibilities - - -Going to be a very interesting spring - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Agree. this is one prospect that keeps getting better every single day…
-
Yep I posted in a thread about it. I think a thread about Garrett but maybe it was here. Good stuff.

Would take.

This is the time when Coach Self does his magic…

Porter got his release.
Don’t worry Washington wasn’t worried about letting him go. He wasn’t that good anyway
So, will be a good fit at Mizzou, where Cuonzo just hired his daddy…
-
KU very likely out for Duval according to BHam. Things change but, it’s pretty late in this process. He says Duke or Zona based on what he heard.
-
Getter of buckets Thomas Allen has requested a release from his NLI to NC State. Currently at Brewster c/o North Carolina. That has worked out for KU before (no idea if KU even shows interest).
-
Porter Sr. hired on at MU.
-
It does raise some questions at Virginia. We’ve seen in the past that its tough to play for Bennett and his slow you to sleep style and defensive minded philosophy. I’m think the Shayok transfer means more then the Thompson one. Thompson, I believe, has already transferred before so he’s most likely a grad transfer looking for more playing time. It seemed he was getting lost in the shuffle of the young guys. Shayok now has to go sit somewhere and finish his one year, which always strikes me as an odd situation.
-
Interesting about Waters and his father. Had not heard anything about him before.
Bham with his usual daily doom and gloom.
-
Yeah the Shayok one is very odd to me. The other two I get.
Definitely has to be something with Waters. The staff at this point seems not panicked about getting a PG.
-
@BeddieKU23 think we should start a new recruit thread? Retire this one!
-
sure, in a few week’s we’ll need a new one. recruiting will pick up after the season ends
-
Anyone catch Juiston’s game yesterday?
Hutch won and again Shakur was clutch down the stretch. Made a bunch of FT’s (which other than a jump-shot seems to be his weakness).
He had over 20 pts again with 16 rebounds. Usual effort from this guy
-
Yeah he is good. He’d get minutes for KU next year and it’s always good to have high bbiq players.
Some really weird scorching hot take posts in a Phog thread about him. Someone said they remind him of Bragg which just makes absolutely zero sense to me.
-
I saw that. Poster has no idea what he’s talking about.
Honestly the Jamari Traylor comp fits (size, athlete) but otherwise ends there. Hard to find a direct comp because he is kind of an unique talent. Without a jump shot you worry how much he’d fit in this years hawk lineup but obviously a lot of things are going to change next year. His rebounding, BBIQ, and athletic ability stand out and are needed on this team
-
@BShark love to see him after a summer w/coach! They were 19 down last pm and came back. I believe.
-
Strongly considering going to the hcc game. Don’t want to miss Baylor game though.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I agree, love the thread, but mentioned yesterday thread getting really really long, thought maybe we should start a next recruit up phase 2. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
The only parallel I see is that Bragg dominated in HS but not so much in Division I college ball. Likewise, Juiston is dominating in JuCo but will he do the same at the next level?
-
While true you could technically comp just about any player not at a basketball factory like Oak Hill that way. When there is a clear cut best player (usually the case with a sought after recruit) then they are going to have to ball a loooot. That’s why stats really do not mean much and it’s about evaluating skills and how you think they will translate which is an inexact science.
