2019 Recruiting
-
I hear you, and I somewhat agree with you on the timeline… I believe that Zeke and JRE will soon commit and sign, as well as Stanley. We’ll leave a spot open for Hurt if he decides to commit late, but I don’t think that he will commit late, think he’ll commit early. I also think that all three of the big guys will be around for atleast 2 years, Nnaji probably three.
-
Hurt is most assuredly OAD. JRE and Nnaji should definitely be multi-year guys though. If Hurt signs early I don’t think it will be to KU, since he hasn’t even taken an OV to Lawrence yet.
-
He hasn’t taken any OVs, right?
-
And I disagree about Hurt being a no-brainer one and done
-
@Marco Correct. He has done some visits recently and is going to UK’s midnight madness which will probably be an OV. I saw it mentioned a lot that he wasn’t even taking recruiting all that seriously until very recently. The belief is he will visit KU for a game in which case he wouldn’t be signing early. I hope your predictions are right though.

He has made it very clear that it is his intention. So, it’s certainly his plan. However if he needed or wanted to stay a second year, he has a better parental/financial situation than Cliff, Selby, BMac* etc…
*Not throwing any shade at Ben with this, he was absolutely right to go. He HAD to go pro and start getting paid for his family.
-
Hurt is 100% waiting until spring. Zeke is TDB and JRE is signing early.
-
Read the article of Zags. - - -Hurt said there are 7 schools that contact him a lot , and he probably won’t cut schools. - -they are: Duke - -Indiana - - - -KU – Kentucky - - Memphis- - -Minnesota - - & N Carolina.
Looking to make official visits , he wants to see the real atmosphere and environment is like.
He said as far as visits that FOOTBALL games are probably more of a fun type of visit BUT said he thinks he will get more out of it by going to a big basketball game - - - WHEW that’s a break for us lol.
One of the big important thIngs will be the relationship with Coach’s and how comfortable he is with then also is big for him and his family. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Little interview article on Hurt here.

Totally forgot Zeke was back this past weekend for his OV. Anyone hear anything on how it went?

He is pretty quiet. Articles will come out within a few days I’m sure.
KU is very well positioned here though for sure.
-
Would be very surprised if he didn’t end up in our class

Zeke is headed to Arizona this weekend. - - His dad said KU was telling him how Zeke - - JRE – -& M Hurt could all co-exist together , his dad said probably looking at around the 24th of November when he will announce. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I really like where KU is at with Zeke. I think it’s more likely than not he’s a Jayhawk.
-
I agree about Nnaji soon being a Jayhawk, and JRE, as well. Hopefully Stanley or Chandler will sign early, too. A class that features McBride, Braun, Nnaji, JRE, and either Stanley or Chandler I’ll take in a heartbeat … If Hurt waits too long we may have to draw our attentions elsewhere. What I like about the above group - I don’t think that any of them are necessarily OADs.

I would say other than Stanley, the rest are almost guaranteed to not be OAD.
-
Getting Zeke to come here for his first visit is perfect. We set the bar. Good luck matching it.
-
Chandler Lawson and Cole Anthony are taking a OV together to Oregon on October 19.
-
Thread is getting very long, may a new thread?
