Mann to UNC, Anthony to Duke. No reason to think anything else right now.

Lacks the height part but def can shoot with pg skill
6’1’’ is not amazing but not terrible either.
Anthony to Duke is contingent on A LOT of things. Honestly I think Oregon and even Nova may be more likely. Word is the Anthony’s weren’t that impressed with the whole Duval experiment at Duke and for sure don’t want to play alongside Tre Jones. Kansas should be on his list and may get an OV but I’m not too hopeful about anything serious.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I did see that Slater switched his CB to cloudy. So that’s interesting.
-
@BShark there’s just a lot that has to happen for anyone to land Anthony, and not sure anything is probable yet.
-
Do you think the likelihood of Anthony landing at KU is as about as good as me joining the priesthood tomorrow? lol. - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ha! It’s somewhere north of 0 but still in the same zip code.

Samuell Williamson @S_Williamson35
Final 5 official visits : Aug 31-2 Kansas
Sep 7-9 Texas A&M
Sep 14-16 Louisville 
️
Sep 21-23 Oklahoma 
️
Oct 5-7 Texas Tech ️
-
Hopefully Samuel on makes one visit.
-
Big man Oscar Tshiebwe cut his list to 4 and KU was not on it. Not sure how high of a priority he was for the staff.
Final 4 is Baylor, Kentucky, Illinois, & WVU.

Lock city. He may take all the visits but it’s KU barring a stunner.

Yep. From what I understand it was just a matter of KU/the staff making him a priority and they did.
@Woodrow from what I understand the staff liked Oscar but knew he is a lock for WVU.
-
if he is not afraid of the competition for minutes, KU is really a no brainer.

Yup. The staff isn’t taking commitments from bigs unless their names are Hurt or JRE until further notice.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Makes a lot of sense with how deep KU is involved with both.

Anthony Walker a 2019 F will be at late night. Unofficial so he is paying his own way.
When talking about schools recently in an article
Kansas: “Kansas is big in player development and I know their program will stick with me on and off the court. I’d always be a part of their family forever if I decided to go there and that gives me a good feeling.”
He’s a plan C or so I would have to guess. Not a bad player but not a priority. Made his top 8 with zero effort and sadly for KSU they did not despite an offer. Poor Bruce.
Looks like he is progressing things now but if KU did need to take a swing for him it probably wouldn’t be too hard. Adidas AAU team, going to Brewster this year etc…
@BeddieKU23 Has your buddy at Brewster mentioned anything about him?
-
I will check with him. He did mention recently he was excited about Kai Jones being there. He mentioned KU has kept tabs on him and they hope he waits until spring.
Lecque & Gafney (Ohio St signee), Joel Brown, Walker. Brewster loaded up again

Kai has really exploded in the rankings.
Doesn’t look like he is in a hurry. I don’t see that he has scheduled any visits nor has he made any big cuts.
Maybe that Bahamas connection with Coleby will finally pay off.

From a free Bossi article on Sam Williamson.
Kansas: “First off, it’s my dream school. Second off, they’ve been recruiting me since this time last year and they really picked it up this summer and then they have a lot of opportunity for me on the wing. Quentin Grimes is probably leaving, LeGerald Vick will be gone after this year, Dedric Lawson will be leaving, so that’s three spots on the wing and then the Sam Cunliffe transfer, so really four spots on the wing so I think I can come in and play early there.

Hmmmm, now though I don’t have a PHD - - or any STD’S - - - or other then a lot of D’S - -that I got in throughout School middle School and High School , I may not be the brightest light in the house BUT if I was to take a swing at those comments , these comments to me sure sounds pretty much like a kid that has already made his decision. - MIGHT be wrong - - -COULD be wrong , but for a kid to say that KU is his dream School and follow it up with these other comments? - -Sounds like a kid that has bought the program - I"ma thinkin recruit # 1 pretty much sowed up - -we shall see. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 Louisville would be my only concern, and it’s like 1 out 10 concern lol.

I feel ya buddy , yet it would not surprise me in the least if he didn’t commit after this weekend. He is still moving up in the rankings. Has a very solid ranking even now - - -he could hold off just to be able to take his visits but I think the Fat Lady is about to take Center Stage. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 Good ole rankings. I was hoping KU would try to lock him up when his other offers were Abilene Christian and Incarnate Word, but already having 1 early commitment at the time I can see why they didn’t.
He has always had that smooth jumper.

People wanting Jerrance fired just a couple of years ago lol. Bill knows what he’s doing. Honestly, I think it will be hard to keep Howard on the staff much longer if he keeps recruiting like this.

I was close to joining the bandwagon RIP.
Dude has been slaying on the trail lately.

OK , now for my Halloween wish this year instead of Candy I would like Anthony - -JRE - - - Hurt- - - & Williamson - please - with a little brown sugar on top lol. - -Not that much to ask for guys - -so asking all my KU friends to jump on this request and get er done for Jayballer - -I mean after all I’d do the same thing for each and every one of you lmao - -Now get out there and reel them in lol - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well, 3/4 ain’t bad.
-
KU scheduled an in-home with James Wiseman and he’s coming for Late Night. Might as well take the free trip I guess. Because he’s staying home.
-
Interesting, I thought Kentucky and Memphis were the run away leaders. 24-7 has him ranked #1 and Rivals #3. It would be a real nice pick up but I would be surprised if he ends up at KU.

Home = Memphis. Kabs is saying he is going to Memphis. Pretty much a universally held opinion.

@BShark would the Lawson’s have any pull on him?
-
Well Tre Mann Gone, no big surprise - -committing to Florida -and wow Anthony cut his list all right - -down to TWELVE - - that’s cutting your list? KU - - - Duke - - - Kentucky - - - N Carolina- - - Louisville - - -Oregon - - -Villanova - - -Wake Forest - - - ( Pittsburg ? ) - - - Georgetown ? ? – -Norte Dame - - & Miami - -I won’t ever get up till the fat lady sings on us lol.
Same goes for Wiseman - - I mean in reality - -I know we stand a chance like a snowball’s chance in hell , yet still interesting mama very , very , involved. Obviously gonna be spring before he decides. Mama says she wants him to just be able to concentrate on his 12th grade year. - After his season they will be able to see Transfers for schools involved in his recruitement graduation and such.
She says the narrative in the recruitment has been only 2 schools that have a chance mama says of top recruit that’s NOT REALITY. she said KU keeps in touch all the time - – -Vanderbilt is always on him - - - -Florida St texting him E-mailing him
His visits are Kentucky Sept 7th - - - -KU - in home visit on Sept 12th & official visit on the 28th - - -Vanderbilt on October 5th. - - article says has been on both Vanderbilt & Ku campuses .
Mama says they wanna see how you all play , see how the system is ran , get dirty with the players , She wants James to talk with some of these people and get a feel of what’s going on - -He is not close to a decision - she wants him to make an educated choice in the spring
I know you know he isn’t coming here BUT how many ever thought we would ever get a visit from him - -now we have one - -a in home plus an official - -and a late night visit at that - -Think the ol fat lady might wanna sit down for a spell - -not time to sing yet one never knows - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I’d say Mann to FL is a surprise as most everyone thought he was going to UNC. Odd ending to a recruitment there.
-
JRE taking his official on 9-28

Ya well consider the source. - -from 18th to 38th? - get that crap out of here lol. - They probably did it when they realized that chances are that a very talented player is going to end up spurning the oh mightier then thou ACC for another school/conference. What? - -how can that be SHAME on JRE – SHAME I SAY especially if he spurns N Carolina or Duke for another school - -how can this happen - -oh Whoa’s me - -ha we will show him - -we will just drop him in the rankings - -there that will fix his wagon – how dare he - I mean we are talking the ACC for GOD’S sakes lol - - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Can’t hurt to have JRE in Wiseman’s ear. Because those two would be a filthy front court. The Mann thing REALLY surprised me. Word around UNC was it was done.

No it can’t hurt. I think we are all realists here - -but not sure if you ever heard but – - - -GOD can work miracles - -we can always hope. - -wouldn’t that just put a knot in Kentucky & Memphis skivee’s - -talk about blowing some people away lol
I could all ready hear the other fan base response something along these lines - - I TOLD YOU that KU was dirty - I wonder how much they had to pay him to come play. - -KU is the most dirty team in the NCAA - I can just hear it now lol. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Haha I’ll take all that crap and then some if we got Wiseman.

FarmerJayhawk said:

ya me too. Just like I’ve been talking to NC fans been pretty good no hate - -BUT as soon as I mention JRE coming for late night – BAM statement such as keep on pumping yourself up but do it somewhere else.
I told him sorry you got offended but all I was doing was stating a fact and about how well late night had worked for us in the past. - I just don’t understand why fans can’t exchange thoughts back and forth without getting personal and feel the need to take jabs. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 same. I will say most fans not on the internet are really cool. Kentucky fans excluded.
