Bit from Bossi on Thompson, “ Thompson is planning to be at Kansas this weekend and the Jayhawks had looked to be emerging as a pretty clear leader. However, he’ll have to ask some tough questions about the Jayhawks’ status with the NCAA. If not Kansas, his in-state finalists could be in best position to capitalize.“
Thanks for sharing. Self looks like he has a chance to hold the edge or lose it here. Probably the only recruit that matters this weekend in the big picture dont you think?
I’d add KK Robinson to that list as far as 2020 guys. I’m still hanging onto some hope of Todd but probably just a vice at this point.
Totally forgot about him. Guess I’m just low on hope in this class given what’s happened. Either kid would be great to have. Some are concerned how Bryce will translate to College. KK seems like a really nice grab for running point and being a solid defender off the bat. Hopefully self can work some magic
-
Gethro got another CB pick for KU today. Hopefully Texas Tech bombs this weekend

Here’s a quote from Corey Evans, yes I know he’s not that reputable in regards to KU, but… He did ask Karim directly if he plans on skipping college and he said no. Posted 8 days ago on Rivals.
"There have been rumors that Karim Mane could potentially skip college and jump directly to the NBA next spring due to his age and year of graduation. I asked Mane that directly and he stated that his intentions are to enroll in college next fall.
Mane has spoken little on his recruitment, but has also not devoted much attention towards it. That is about to change. A final list of schools or visits of any type have not been scheduled, but Mane did tell Rivals.com that Alabama, Georgetown, Illinois, Kansas, Marquette, Maryland, Memphis, Seton Hall, and Wake Forest were among those most frequently in contact with him.
Expect for Mane to schedule his official visits and for a few others to jump into the mix, but a late signing in April is the likeliest conclusion to sorting out where he will end up next year."

@dylans ISU poking around too. From what I can tell he can hoop, but he can’t shoot. Perfect for Bill.
lol, who can’t shoot ? - -the video I was watching looked lie he was doing a pretty decent job to me - -and I’m referring to his J - -not layups or flushes = = =He by far is No Marcus G. - - this kid got some range , and at times looked like even deep range -and they were looking pretty smooth/pure - -not like a prayer where you fire up as missile and it clangs around off the rim 5-6 tomes bounces up 3 ft and falls back through - - I didn’t see any prayers in his shot- I think he would be a nice addition if we could land him. - - ROCK CHALK ALLD AY LONG BABY
I’m not adverse to jucos if they fill a role.

I cant wait for the season to start. Anyone else excited??
Bigtime ready! Unfortunately, with the NCAA dragging its damn feet we’re going to hear alot of “and ofcourse we’ve all heard about the program being investigated by the NCAA” and yada, yada, yada “but they certainly have a great team this year.” I’ll just press pause and fast-forward…
-
@FarmerJayhawk Is he going to leave us dazed and confused?
-
Jt thor will no longer visit. Writing on the wall there

BShark said:
Haven’t heard but my guess is Memphis and Michigan, but he goes overseas.
-
Corey put in a pick for KU so even if KU makes the list assume he’s going elsewhere
-
Surprised Duke didnt buy him.
That let’s you know how much they are looking for
-
Who are you guys talking about?
-
@rockchalkwyo Isaiah Todd.

I believe we’re taking Gethro instead but it’s not 100% locked down yet. Memphis is still trying to get him on campus and probably will.
-
Todd down to KU and Michigan. Announcing Oct 17.
-
@FarmerJayhawk the better hope they get him then. They are in no position to turn kids down in hopes of landing someone else.

wow.
Overseas tbd later I’m assuming
-
@BShark 3 picks today for Michigan.
-
@rockchalkwyo Yeah seems done.
-
@BShark That’s just great. On rivals KU has 2. I don’t get how the 2 websites have conflicting inside knowledge.

I’m sure not getting my hopes up - - – haven’t heard a lot of Tod talk around here - -Course that doesn’t necessarily mean a bad thing. - - I remember reading somewhere , they saying this could be a year when we sign guys that we haven’t heard that much about, - - talk about - - maybe this is one of them who knows. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Overseas still firmly in play anyway.

That’s my pick

Perfectly okay with Gethro instead of Todd (if that’s how it ends up)
I understand the difference in their talent level, one is clearly better then the other at this stage but Todd is the type of recruit that got us in the mess we dug ourselves in.
You wonder if a recruit like Todd ends up at Michigan if they still had Belein? I would think he doesn’t.

BShark said:

Asked my guy who works around NC schools and knows people who know Todd and he’s thought KU for a long time.
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah you would think Gethro would be a 4 year guy which we need. And definitely not, Howard is much more willing to recruit than Belein from the looks of it.
@FarmerJayhawk Don’t do this to me lol.

I really could see KU getting a commitment then Todd bolting in the spring. Can’t play HS hoops when fielding offers from pro teams (I think)

Not trying to doubt your friends who know the Todd’s BUT sure looks like to me he is headed to Michigan.
Since he named his two finalists - - Michigan has gotten 4 CB picks today - -seems like somebody must know something , and others following suit. - -Something leak? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

With respect to the pickers, I don’t trust their opinions much. I think a lot of guys won’t even put them in as long as overseas looks like the eventual landing spot.

Understandable bud , even if we were to get him for a year - would be a sweet addition for us, me myself, I just don’t feel very confident about him landing here - -over sea’s or not
-
Does anyone know if Bryce Thompson came down this weekend or not, I didn’t see him at late night on Friday

Quite a few folks have asked him about it and he’s never denied he’s interested or it’s a legit option.
-
Announcing for Michigan but even after that I wouldn’t rule out overseas.

Any chance at Davion Bradford? Announcing Friday apparently after visiting over the weekend…

@rockchalkwyo @BeddieKU23 Oregon getting involved with Mading fwiw.

Couple of recruit follow ups and what they have been saying:
Javonte Brown Ferguson on his visit to KU : — The KU visit went great , They ( KU ) want me . - -They need two big’s - - - They said IF Gethro Muscadin & Isaiah Todd sign then it wouldn’t be the best thing for me to come. – 70/30 % chance he will be re-classifying and make his Decision after the New Year.
KK Robinson was asked about his visit : - - -Said he loved it. – -The Atmosphere in Allen Fieldhouse was crazy. - - Being able to see Snoop Dogg also was a great experience. - - They ( KU ) said that they weren’t recruiting me to sit the Bench. They are recruiting me to make plays and to be one of the go to guys down the line - - - - Of Course I have to earn it - - - Nothing is given. ( - -Love that reasoning from him ) - - Then he says " I Think I’ll fit great in their system - - sounds encouraging – Coach Self has always done great with little Guards - - -I like our chances with him I believe - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Not a surpise. They swing the big Nike check

thx hopefully can close on KK

ya, hope they can to. - -from his comments , sure very easily could mean nothing/have no substance BUT when he said " I think I’ll fit great into their system ? - - things that make ME go hmmmm – anyways - -probably me just being silly/wishful thinking. - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

One to pay attention to at least.
If the staff can close on KK and Gethro in the fall in spite of everything I’ll be very impressed with the recruiting efforts.
-
Definitely got the wishful thinking meter up a few notches hearing the fit comment. Those tend to be important details to read in between the lines from. We’ll see, he still has visits left.

Ya , KK - -is visiting Illinois , this weekend - -then he visits Arkansas Oct 18th-20th , still considering Iowa State - - Vanderbilt - - & Virginia Tech
Personally myself I think I would be more afraid of Arkansas then anyone else , and that’s more then anything just because of them being a home School - -possibly with Iowa State following them up - -I feel good really right now - -but watch Arkansas I think this very well could come down to us and them. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
