Been going through the Dajuan Harris tape. Hope we get an update on him at some point this season from the coaches. I really think he will be a solid backup to Garrett next season when needed. I’m excited to see if he is another diamond found
I like his length, passing ability and D.
-
All 3 give him a chance to play next season. I also like his ability to use his body to get in the lane and then snipe a floater up. His athleticism improved big time over the last few years. Hopefully he put on 10 to 15 pounds this season because playing at 160 is not possible. I think he has intangibles and certainly has familiarity playing with Braun
-
Huh. Looks like JT Thor might go back to 2021, take a prep year, and explore the draft or go pro overseas.
-
Makes sense why his recruitment is crickets
-
Hearing that if we land Harmon we may axe Jossell or find a way to push him back to 21.

Oh man, @jayballer73 is going to not be able to contain himself on hearing this news Lol.
-
I’m going to say it everyone, you ready…? My opinion? I think that the NCAA investigation - as far as recruiting goes - has actually (looking back, in retrospect) helped us.
I love both this and next year’s classes. The scandal has caused us to re-examine local talent, as well as sign other players who otherwise would have gone on to thrive for three or four seasons in other programs. It is going to pay bigtime dividends, my friends.

Things change playah?

Trying to figure out how Harmon fits on that squad next yr… interesting note on Jossell
-
@BeddieKU23 ditto.

Is his scoring worth the extra stuff… These types of kids give me nightmares

Looks a new target …
-
@Woodrow would rather have this kid than Jossell or Harmon tbh.
-
I dig. More of a wing than guard but could be a nasty 2/3 in a couple years. Also shooting 35% from 3 and 72% from the line this year. Love his frame. Dude is large.
-
First impression, well built kid. Tattoo game on the right arm is lit. Can definitely shoot the 3. Dropped 50 in a recent game. Decent handles/athletic ability. 4 year guy.
For those wondering Donovan Williams- Former Nebraska commit #146 6’5 SG 190 from Lincoln Nebraska.
Since decommitting he’s taken unofficial visits to Oklahoma St, Kansas St in 2020. Will be interesting to see if they offer

Yeah you can see the fit with him. Really wondering what all this recent activity for a guard is about. Figured we’d be more in the market for a big
-
@BeddieKU23 We might move on from Jossell as Farmer mentioned. Not only was he a reach but he has been hurt this year.
Don’t think we need a big.

Yeah I can see that happening.
We really rolling with Dave/Mitch and maybe Silvio? Can’t imagine Gethro plays a ton.

Going small with Wilson and Enaruna playing the 4. Dave starts at the 5, Silvio and Mitch as backups. The competition for who starts at the 4 will be fascinating to watch

Additional info on Donovan Williams per Zagsblog: https://www.zagsblog.com/2020/02/17/donovan-williams-says-six-schools-working-hardest-kansas-showing-interest/
Kansas became the latest school to reach out on Monday and will send an assistant to watch Williams on Tuesday.
“They said that they’ll probably have a few guys leaving next year with graduation, a couple to NBA and also transfers,” Williams said Monday. “So they really need a guy like me who can spread the floor and shoot the ball. They are looking forward to recruiting me and they’ll be at my game tomorrow.”
Although he has nothing set yet, Williams says he may visit Kansas in the near future.
“I don’t have any visits planned. I’m going to wait until the season is over,” he said. “Kansas wants me down on Feb. 24 against Oklahoma State so I might make that trip.”

Interesting he mentions transfers… I can’t really think of a good transfer candidate, but if I had too pick I would say Tristan.

Silvio would be my guess but haven’t heard anything for sure. I’d love for him to stay and actually have a great year.

Thought we were done on our 2020 recruiting ? - -National Signing day for 2020 coming up in March isn’t it ? Do we have room for this guy? - -just curious cause I sure don’t know - -thanks bud

Aren’t we looking at Bryce as our 2 guard ? - - Garrett & Harris running at ~1 ? - - wondering why we would be on this guy IF Bryce plays the 2 - -just curious

We have 3 centers and 2 wing/forwards on the roster if no one leaves early.
Then you have a bunch of guys capable of playing the 4 as well albeit a bit more undersized.

If we offer, someone is leaving unexpectedly. Worth noting he does not currently have a KU offer.

hmmmm , I see that - -Transfers ? just don’t know who that would be - - MAYBE Tristian I guess

from the little tid bit I read on the kid - -sounds like maybe interest as soon as we say we very well could be recruiting him and are going to be at his game - - he says he might very well visit KU - pretty quick response from him on this I think if we get seriously involved we automatically become serios contender.

Got 13 scholarships, might as well use them. This guy is not a starting level guy next year.

understand ,but just didn’t realize that we didn’t already have 13 on board right now
-
@jayballer73 We are currently full, so you didn’t miss anything. I mentioned in my last post an offer would be telling because it means we have to make room.
-
Still having some trouble. Mainly with threads that are very long like the 2020 recruiting. Like 1,146 posts on this and never fails on this thread have to scroll all the way through to get to the most recent kinda sucks

Maybe that’s where the kid is getting transfer - - like mentioned Tristian ?
-
@jayballer73 If you click the double down arrow up top you at least shouldn’t have to scroll down.

sorry bud - - Double down arrow ? - - only arrow I see is a arrow where you can either scroll up - - or down I know not the brightest light in the house sorry bud

Ahh you talking about that little teenie double arrow in blue ?

If Silvio left you need a big… really thin otherwise.
-
@BeddieKU23 Agree. Gethro as the emergency 5 is not appealing.
-
I really don’t think there is anyone considering transferring at this point but you never know. What a kid says to a reporter, and what he actually heard and what the reporter actually heard, can be worlds apart. Probably more of a factor that Self has to account for not only graduation and NBA entrants, but also the possibility that someone may transfer (although at this point there is no indication of said transfer, but Self has been caught off guard before and is covering all his bases - type response to a recruit).
-
@1JayhawkLifer Mentioned this on the phog but I agree, it’s likely just Bill covering his bases here. He wants it to be known there is room, IF KU offers.
-
Jossell is Bill’s classic trap
“The jury’s still out to see what he can be,” Self said of Jossell, “and I’m not going to paint him out to be something that we don’t know he can be yet, but I do think if you’re fast and can shoot and you’re tough, the ceiling’s pretty high.”

Donovan Williams went 1-15 from three with KU coaches (and probably lots of other coaches) in attendance.

Yeah, unsurprisingly I haven’t seen anything about an offer from KU or Oregon (believe they are also “showing interest”).
-
Probably didn’t get the greenlight after that kind of performance. Watching film on him he does chuck it. Seems like a high volume shot maker
-
@BeddieKU23 Hobo version of Jalen Wilson tbh.
