2020 Recruiting
-
KK and Bryce are mutually exclusive.
-
The thing about Javonte is next years roster doesn’t need another big at all, it needs more actual ball handling capable guards.
5s: Dave, hopefully Silvio, Gethro
Undersized 5s: Mitch (assuming he takes a RS this year)
4s: Enaruna, Wilson
That’s 6 deep in the post already (which means Gethro probably RS).

I figured this was the case. We NEED another ball handling guard but I don’t see getting two high level players at that spot.
Best case scenario is now…
1: Harris
1/2/3: Bryce, Garrett
2/3: Ochai, Braun, Tyon
Pretty versatile.

Need some help guys just read off a post and I hadn’t seen it anywhere else - -so wondering if anyone else HAD seen it. - -another poster off the Phog like 12 hours ago said that Corey Evans also has now projected that Bryce would commit to KU ? - -has anyone here seen that? - -If true that means Bossi/Slater/Evans have all now said Bryce to KU - -would be huge to see Evan predict KU - - anybody seen anything with Corey – rock chalk all day long baby

Bossi and Corey Evans both picked KU last night

They have to be considering an Arkansas insider just put a KU pick in for Bryce

thank you - – hadn’t seen it – that’s encouraging - -now we just need to get Evan - -I usually count on Evan seems like he is usually pretty spot on
-
Ryan seems to think Javonte is headed to U Conn - - interesting. - - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
That is definitely the current smoke. I would expect a flood of UConn picks in the CB soon.

What a turn of events we might be witnessing with Bryce. Felt dead in the water for months here. Would say a lot to land a talent like him in the mess going on

boy isn’t that the truth.- - - like you say for the mess we are in - -to even think IF he does commit – if we get no more figure with him & Foster & Gethro - -isn’t THAT BAD all things considered - -with Bryce obviously the cream . - Not trying to get my hope all worked up yet but things possibly starting to look better for him. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
KK had himself a MAN’S game the other night on the 16th of October - - he almost had himself a quadruple double against Bluefield College in Saltville in a exhibition - -he went off for : 18 points - - -12 rebounds - - - 9 assists - - & 8 steals - -THAT is a night - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

No doubt about that. If we can land him to go along with our other two recruits I would call that (while also keeping this year’s class in mind) a freaking grand slam!

Same. I quit asking about Bryce a couple months ago once I heard he was going to stay home and Cade/Todd would end up at Okie Lite. Once the ground started shifting under those two I just figured we wouldn’t be the beneficiary of any of it. But alas, we’re probably getting Bryce.
Though I’ll eat some crow. UK was taking the first of Askew and Cade. Sounds like Okie Lite is the probably destination for him now. RJ Davis kind of took the spot at UNC but we’ll see I suppose. I think it’s either OSU or UK.
-
Snoop apparently didn’t bother the Thompson family…
I’d imagine landing Bryce would send a message to the rest of the College Basketball World that Bill isn’t leaving.

Well just doing some random thinking. - -I know that’ usually scary for me lol. Anyways got to thinking read where Boynton was in to see Bryce yesterday & Shaka was into see Bryce too.
Got me to wondering trying to fit this puzzle - -the pieces together , with the little smoke and a few CB’S that we have picked up for Bryce recently and then these Coach’s coming in to see him yesterday - -you don’t suppose do you that there might be a possibility that he was bringing these Coach’s in to tell them about his commitment and thanking them for his recruitment? - - I know Shaka I don’t think was really a serious contender was but know Okie St was in there at least at one time. - With him taking his last visit and such and making the statement that after his last visit he would get together with his parents and talk about things?
Could be his decision is coming really soon & he notifying Coach’s. I was curious what the talk was on the North Carolina board and read where I guess there was some kind of insider that said that the longer this went on he thought helped KU more - - Plus people saying the Davis commit hurt their chances with Bryce.
Almost comical reading their comments about how dirty KU was and couldn’t figure out why ANY parent would want their kid to come play at such a dirty program. - - - Seriously - - Really this coming out of the mouths from all the crap they had going on? - Talking about how Bill Self has made a mockery of the game since he has been at KU - - lmao.
Talk about how they had thought Oklahoma was a figure but heard that Oklahoma had made a last ditch effort with Bryce having the Thunder practice on their floor when Bryce took the official visit and then followed him home to visit with him. - -UNC talking said that since Bryce hadn’t committed to them yet they felt like their chances were not so good - -I really haven’t hear much about UNC and Bryce lately I think their cooked - - it’s OU & KU I like our chances.

It’s definitely a 2 horse race between Kansas and Oaklahoma

Self on the recruiting effect of the NCAA news: “Recruiting is hard regardless. When you’re recruiting at an elite level, you’ve got obstacles every year. … It’s something we certainly explain out and are very transparent with what’s going on. … I would say it has definitely had an impact.”
Self says he also thinks KU could have one of the better early signing periods the school has had “in a long time.”
That last quote caught my attention…

( Self said he thinks KU could have one of the better early signing periods the school has had in a long time ? - - - -hmmmmm - - -more then one more signing

I’m still wondering if Bryce is not calling the Coach’s in and making them aware of his decision – Roy into see him today? - -visits complete - - have a feeling decision coming really soon. - - Right now hearing KU leading - - ( Barely ) - - - Oklahoma RIGHT THERE - -and Okla State close behind Oklahoma - - UNC not much of a factor so I’ve read since their commit of the Davis kid -the fans think they are out. - - let’s do this - -Come on Bryce , make us proud. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Jerry Meyer flipped to KU from OU…
-
Yep
-

Oh well hell - -like is said - - - BOOM - - big time flip - -big time CB. - - oh I’m feeling much better now. - - --nice way to wake up and read - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Now all I need to see is Evan Daniels put his pick in for Bryce and I’ll be good to go - -Evan is usually pretty spot on, I myself rely on him the most
We have Slater - - -Evans - - - Meyer – - Fisher - just looking for Evan. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Corey Evans had his Wednesday mailbag today and in it he said he thinks a commitment from Bryce is coming in the next couple of week. Said as of now he is “leaning” towards to Kansas.

Coach Self made the statement that this recruiting class could be one of the best he has had for awhile.
There is wording here that makes me wonder other then Bryce. - -Could be that there is STILL another. - -I know there had been discussion , among fans can’t remember if it was from here or another site, where fans posted that this might be a year of surprise - - - maybe a recruit we really hadn’t heard hardly anything about , saying that brings me to this.
Yes I feel a lot of us are starting to feel better with Bryce , but I too have felt we very well could still have another. - -We all know there has been talk about Mitch Red-shirting for the Reasons of needing him worse NEXT year more then this - -up front will be thinner.
All of the above brings me to this possibly. - - -We just offered Frank Anselem a 6’10 from Prolific Prep California - -Frank is in the Class of 2021 but like Javonte has the option of re-classifying to 2020 and is expected to do so he says. - - -So Frank stated about KU : - -
KU is a great School with lots of History and tradition , They are one of the most successful Colleges in America in both Academics & Basketball - - The fans are lit - - - It’s Great. - - I can play the Four or Five , KU runs a lot of Ball screens , so I think I’ll fit perfectly. - - Makes me wonder is Frank a surprise? - -with our thinner front Court next year he might be talking about? - -ranked currently # 60 - -Other Schools interested in him -Oregon - - just offered - – also Arizona - - Arizona State - - USC - -yet you go to 247 and it Shows LSU with 2 CB’S - - - -but anyways - what ya think? - - Maybe another commit? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I think Coach has a few tricks still left up his sleeve… It’s going to be interesting.
-
@jayballer73 I think Self was just talking about Bryce in that quote from yesterday. I am not even sure who else they are targeting that would commit early. ( that they are have a shot at)
-
I wish 247 updated there “targets” page so we had a idea of who they are actively recruiting.

Well Scott chasen FWIW just put his CB in for Bryce to KU - yte he is the KU insider so FWIW – yet still just more sign that Bryce maybe leaning our way. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Evan had his “Ask Evan” questions. Doesn’t appear he knows where Bryce is going yet. Thinks KU, UNC, OU but no favorite at the moment…

As far as I know it’s only Thompson and Robinson in 2020. I think getting Gethro put the kabash on Mading.

If he signs those two, that would be a more than solid four man class.

Robinson not coming here - -he is almost gift wrapped to Arkansas. - I was worried about them with him - -figured it would come down to us or them - think he is done

Yes Robinson is all but done to Arkansas

247 now has Grant-Foster as the #2 Juco prospect, a 3 star composite for now

From what I read on UNC board they are also very much in play for Kerwin Walton who just visited over the weekend. Could announce this week for UNC taking the last spot. However it also sounds like his Dad said they will check back with UNC in a few days in regards to what movement happens with Bryce or they want to take Kerwin’s commitment. All this is moot if Bryce is already planning to be a Hawk but UNC is certainly portraying its two guys for one spot on their board.

Almost like Bryce will be a Jayhawk.

Optimistic that could happen. We need it
