So Nike is really ponying up for Oregon. Stacked class already (#4, #18, #41, #70 recruits) and might add Brandon Williams + Okoro reclassing to 2018.
Stocking talent to play on national tv 5 times

Beggars can’t be choosers. The Porter brothers are gone and and the one year perfect storm of recruits for MU due to hiring daddy and Cuonzo Martin’s honeymoon are both over and it is back to taking what they can rather than what they want.
-
@JayHawkFanToo I wouldn’t disagree… I just find it funny that Missouri fans are hyped about that roster. I guess when you’ve had to deal with Kim Anderson rosters…
-
…we would be delighted to win 3 games in football…

Zany theory (read: 100% complete speculation). What if Quickley wants to decommit from UK? They’re already recruiting over him with Maxey and Hagans. We could start him at the 2 pretty easily.
-
24/7 has both Grimes and Dotson ranked ahead of Quickley; no way he starts over them. I rather take Cremo who fills a bigger need for KU.
-
Any update on Mystery Man? I figured if there was any truth to this rumor that we would have heard something by now.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I know you already qualified it but yeah he loves UK.
@RockkChalkk Scott was on the radio the other day sounded like the player was still committed and could be in play, but KU prefers Cremo.

My bad, should’ve been more clear. He’d start alongside them both, moving Grimes to the 3.

So am I hearing this correctly you guys think Immanuel quickley is going to decommit from Kentucky to join Kansas?

No

@BShark it’s probably not very likely that quickley is going to decommit from Kentucky anyway
-
@ReggieKansas lol no. I needed a break from work this afternoon so I asked a question.
-
Only reason I mention it is because he’s getting recruited over, we have a need, and we finished 2nd (by A LOT) in that one. Figured it would be a fun way to pass a slow day or two.

Jordan Brown picked Nevada today.
Strange times abound

Remember the Mitchell Robinson saga? Took another turn today when he withdrew from the combine. He would’ve been terrific at KU if Self would’ve made him get his head on straight.
-
He was projected bottom of first round, probably will not help him to skip the combine, only top players get away with it. Whoever is advising him is not helping; I see China in his future.
-
He might have a verbal. I read that.
-
Wasn’t sure where to post this , but Chandler Lawson is leaving Memphis and transferring to Oal Hill Academy for his SR season.
-
Not really a surprise. The better players want and need better competition much like JRE.

Mitchell Robinson finished up summer league averaging 13 points and 10 rebounds per game, along with averaging 4 blocks per game (a summer league record).
He played extremely well this summer and made plays you just don’t see big men make.
-
Robinson would have been fun to watch in the Crimson and Blue this season. Would have been a great place for him to train and come along slowly next to Doke. In an offense that I think would have really prepped him for the NBA.
-
Knox and Robinson really looked good in Summer League. Knicks may have done really well in this draft.
-
I think that both New York (Robinson) and Cleveland (Preston) got steals with guys that were not eligible to play last year. Robinson might end up playing like a top 5 pick. Preston may end up playing like a first rounder. Those are steals to get those guys for a second round pick and a two way contract.
-
@justanotherfan Preston has played well in the summer league. He has a bright future.

Well guys I know this is quite away out but still thought I would pass along found kind of Interesting: - Read today where 2021 Kendall Brown a 6’6 SF from East Ridge Minnesota was talking about visits and he said he had three he wanted to take. - -one was Wisconsin saying that they were close and a lot of Minnesota players went there , I forget at this moment who the other one was but here what I thought was kind of cool.
The third school if you haven’t already figured was KU , this was what was interesting: - He said KU was his dream School when asked what he liked about KU he said pretty much Everything. The best part yet was he said that he had played in a tournament here in the 2nd grade and that ever since that - - his dad said that ever since they played here in the 2nd grade - -the 2nd grade ! ! ! ! that KU is the School he wants to play for - I mean Dam - -JUMPIN - -GEE - -HOSSIE- -TOADS that’s some long time wanting to play lol. - He is currently ranked # 22 by 247 sports with the CB - just found that pretty neat, so looks like a name we might have to keep up with see how things shake out. - -Looks like all we have to do is show some interest and might be one of those no doubters if we have the need at the time. - -Haven’t offered yet but I’m sure somewhere down the line we might. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
