Quentin Grimes Is A Jayhawk (MONSTER CLASS ALERT)
-
Dain Ervin put in a Maryland pick for Devon Dotson before changing it back. He tries to be contrarian to get big points if it works out that way.
-
Dain Ervin picked Arizona for Mitch Lightfoot. Arizona for Josh Jackson. FSU for Doke.
-
Haven’t heard anything but Kansas has this one locked up and Grimes will sign this week.
-
It’s funny that the q commitment was leaked but yet there is still talk like it’s not happening.
Can’t wait to see him announce for ku this week
-
Well Matt Scott just came out swinging in his own way. Still feel great about this one.
-
Bill self is meeting with grimes tonight
-
Herro announcing Tuesday. Kentucky obviously.

Yep. They’ve moved on. Texas only one who thinks they’re left with KU. lol Shaka.

Surprisingly this cycle he’s been tolerable

He’s been played on a few recruitments but the only thing that really ticked me off was the Trae Young thing…
Hopefully he never does something like that again.

I agree that one is tough to get over no matter how much he makes amends for it this season. Hopefully he keeps it up

Grimes just tweeted “stay tuned”.
-
He keeps tweeting it and deleting it. Lol.

Evan Daniels is saying it’s “up in the air” between Texas and KU. He’s half right. UT finished 2nd.

I really don’t understand what’s been so hard to understand in this recruitment. Playa is usually pretty good with his game but this one he is way off

He just doesn’t know yet. Hasn’t put in a CB pick.

What’s surprising is that Shaka is in the final 2. That really just blows my mind having paid attention to this recruitment.
They are already over the scholarship limit to begin with even with Jones & Bamba not returning next season. Someone else is already being pushed out just to make room for Hepa.
Hopefully he gets it done by Wednesday
-
From Bossi
Kentucky and Marquette are his other finalists but, most likely Grimes is going to end up picking between the Jayhawks and Longhorns. No actual date to commit has been set, but it would be a surprise if he makes it out of the early signing period and if we had to place a bet on where he ends up, we still believe Kansas is in a good spot.

Cal was smart enough to move on when he realized where Grimes is headed. Marquette coaches too.
Like you said Texas is recruiting with house money here. I would assume currently they are forcing out a forward.

@BeddieKU23 Apparently Self is chilling in Houston right now.

Thanks for keeping up on this.
-
@BeddieKU23 No problem. Can’t imagine he’d be down there today, before a huge game tomorrow night, if he doesn’t know Grimes is a Hawk but we will see.
-
6:30 Wednesday for an announcement.
-
good! time for celebration this week

-
Announces his announcement when Bill Self is down in Houston. Interesting.
-
Coach Self checking in with him today. - - Think says a lot - - Quentin telling Coach - -it’s a done deal.
Pretty simple I think. - -If he wants Tradition - - -History - - -Play for a team that leads the Nation for consectutive appearances in the NCAA - - -Exposure - - - Consistent sellouts - - - -Lunatics for fans - -development - -playing with other big time players - -Then simple - -he lands here.
on the Other Hand if he wants to stay close to home - stay in his home State - - play before so so crowds - -play with his friends - -Then it’s Texas. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

The kid still has a lot of family in the KC metro.

@BShark YA I think with Coach seeing him today - -him announcing his announcement date today - -I think we are getting ready to drive it way over left field lol. - - -
Man can you imagine - -just picture this for a minute. - -What a week this could be, a early recruiting period this could be.
First we Get Dotson’s LOI - - -Then McCormack’s - - Today we got De-Sousa, Imagine to cap it off if We land Grimes Weds - -then we get word De Sousa has been granted re-classification to play this year. – holy cow that would be an unbelievable week/ early period - - oh ya. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I checked things out. - -Texas has their roster of 15 - -they lose 3 Seniors - takes them down to 12 - - but not sure all of those 3 are on Scholi - - -assuming they lose Bamba - -takes them to 11 - - not sure if they lose anyone else or not - - not sure what they have got committed so far. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 so you checked things out and are not sure
-
UT has no scholarship seniors, but will almost certainly lose Jones and Bamba to the NBA. So that takes them to 10 scholarship players. They’ve signed 4 in 2018, so they already have to cut one to get to 13. Two to add Grimes.
-
Let’s hope Shaka doesn’t pull a shaka. If he does, they might finish .500 in the Big 12.
-
A pretty knowledgeable and tied in poster said that he thinks Dotson and Grimes will both start for KU, but neither will be playing AHEAD OF Marcus Garrett, who he said is a complete stud.

3 headed monster
-
@3genhawk Ya I’m not sure just how many scholi they have available. - I’m not sure if all three of the Seniors were on Scholi so they wouldn’t be using one up which in turn means extra availiable. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Oh well hell then how they even in the picture. - -that’s messed up if their running players off. - -I realize they can be jerked at any time but that’s messed up, you would think that would make for negative recruiting if a player wanted to spill that out how he was ran out for another player. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Haven’t heard anything other than Kansas.

Jerry Meyer has it as a tossup with Texas being right there. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Ok, if he picks KU, he’s awesome, well grounded, wise beyond his years, a team player, up for any challenge, and everything good in the world. If he picks Texas, he’s a fool, afraid of competition, not interested in improving, selfish, being paid by Nike, weak minded, and generally everything horrible about CBB and recruiting.
Amazing what one decision will tell us ( not necessarily “us” on this site, but in many corners of Jayhawks nation). Or so it always seems.
-
I’m a little nervous about this one for some reason, can anybody ease my nerves about it and tell me there isn’t anything to worry about? haha.

Sorry I can’t, I still remember Ayton.
-
@BShark Yep, same here. The comments from Jerry Meyer aren’t sitting well with me.
-
It will suck if he picks UT, I’ll have to not load the phog for a couple days at least, lol. It won’t be ideal but KU would be alright next season.
-
I’ve never heard UT is doing anything other than making it interesting. KU has led wire to wire. If anything changes, I’ll let you all know.
