Recruiting Master Thread Part Deux
-
Duval will be cutting KU shortly. Which if we aren’t going to get him, is much better than him dragging it out so the staff can move on.
-
glad we will be able to stop talking about him soon
I’m waiting in a few weeks for his final 9
-
@BShark how do you know that?
-
@BeddieKU23 Well for what it’s worth, that wonderful CB ha predicting him to Providence - -three picks all for them - I NOW believe those guys don’t know squat. -They have been proven wrong to many times. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@BShark He stated this on his snap chat I read, going to cut his list to two., he will do this today at 4:00, he is on Seton Hall’s campus. - -yep going to be Duke - - and Seton Hall. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Providence was one of his finalists and is local. They could use him as a major upgrade at their pg spot
-
@BShark No announcement from Trevon Duval (@DatGuy_Trey) today. He trolled Twitter on April’s fools day.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 What’s funny is that every player that Zona gets from KU, they all seem to end their college play in mediocrity.
-
Bullets dodged.
-
Bagley III has added KU to his list of 6 (cut Oregon). Any chance he ends up in Larryville?
-
-
Being reported that Bolden will transfer from Duke. Nothing official yet that I’ve seen but there has been a lot of smoke lately that he will transfer to TCU. If he does transfer, honestly I hope it’s not to KU.
-
High profile out transfers reflect poorly on the program and give potential prospects pause…
-
Saw SMU might be an option. They need bigs more…
-
except for Duke and Kentucky!
-
…as long as the checks clear…
-
good one.
I’m sure he’ll look at Texas too, they need bigs and have plenty of scholarships to give
-
@BeddieKU23 Well I guess I’m might be in the minority, BUT I wouldn’t mind having him if we could get him to come. - - People talk about his attitude and such BUT I think a lot of that was because he got caught up in that Duke machine - -just TOO many decent players which limited his playing time and then he had the injury which put him back, I really feel that he still is a very good player, just didn’t have to opportunity to progress, because of numbers at Duke. - -I think he would get quality playing time here and also feel he could for sure help the program - -I think he quite honestly has been given a bum rapp on his attitude at Duke - - I’m sure he just got frustrated cause of lack of playing time & injury and everything else in the equation of things - -Just made a very poor decision to commit to Duke. – pretty good player - -just wrong place & timing - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Per MS looks like Thomas Allen has a decent shot of ending up a Jayhawk and Providence is very likely to get Makai A-L.
-
@truehawk93 However, going from AZ to KU, it worked out fine for Jeff Withey.
-
@BShark tell us about him, please. I googled him. Not much info
-
Very good three point shooter, probably the best available pure shooter. The rest of his game needs work, not an elite athlete (if he was considering his shooting ability he’d be a top 50 prospect). Fairly similar to Graham in that regard really. Should be a really nice 4 year player to have around.
Of course, KU has a fantastic relationship with Brewster (TRob, Tharpe, Graham) so I would think if KU really wants him it will happen (waiting on Duval first)…
-
@BShark did he commit elsewhere and then change his mind? thx!
-
NCST who recently switched coaches.
-
Like another Brannen Greene?
-
Nah. More of a 1/2 that can handle the ball whereas Greene was a 3/4.

Thomas Allen

@KUSTEVE looks like a child!
-
M b going to remain at Duke
-
@blackmild33 think he’ll get any more time?
-
2nd video was his JR year so he would have been 16-17.
-
@BShark what do you think?
-
About him as a player? Mentioned it earlier. I think he would be a good take.
-
@BShark yeah, sounds like you like him! Thx.
-
-
Looks promising…
-
The Phog is not taking this offer well.
-
@BShark maybe more are leaving than we thought.
-
I stand by my earlier prediction that Graham and Svi stay while Bragg leaves. If that all happens and Bragg is replaced that’s still two open scholarships, and Self likes to fill them even though it ended up not happening for this year. Hell he took EVAN MAXWELL which was just mind blowing.
-
@BShark So who is this MS ? I can’t find anything about him being offered by KU. Don’t see mention on any other sites. - -Was it just a twitter thing or what? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
He’s tiny.
-
@BShark need a strong 4, juiston maybe?
-
Same size now as Devonte who obviously isn’t huge but also isn’t a midget. I can’t find any recent highlights, just stuff from before his SR year from the most part when he was a little bit shorter and thinner.
This isn’t a kid that will get much time next year though. It’s more to fill out the end of the roster and have a kid develop while planning to have him contribute in year 2 and beyond and I would imagine the staff is being upfront and honest with him about this. Also potentially a bit of insurance for the 18 class but without a doubt is a kid the staff will recruit over if they can, but if he develops well and produces that’s fine too.
-
@BShark looks like he could still grow!
-
Real good chance at Juiston no doubt.
-
I’m sure. I see absolutely no downside to taking a kid like Allen to fill out the roster.
-
I have not followed recruiting much lately, so, if Coach Self can get one more player, which player would that be?
-
Interesting. Very good shooter. KU could have 7 guards next year…
-
@BShark Love the humility of Allen with that tweet. We must get this kid.
-
Ran across a Scouting report on Allen, off the Kentucky board. as he is one of three guards that they are still recruiting this year now, - -Not sure who the report came from but looks like from Gerry Meyer:
It says - - -Shooter, Can Score , Not overwhelming athlete at all, Not a guy with physical presence, BUT is very skilled, especially in terms of very good shooter.
