2020 Recruiting
-
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

@Woodrow would rather have this kid than Jossell or Harmon tbh.
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.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2020 Recruiting:
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.
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.

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.”
From this recent article: https://www.dallasnews.com/high-school-sports/basketball/2020/02/18/from-no-offers-to-kansas-how-keller-central-guard-latrell-jossell-went-overlooked-for-so-long/?

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

@BShark Enaruna esq

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.

I would say (now that I’ve rethought it) that the transfer, if at all, would come from Silvio - just my thinking. After what has transpired this year - the chair and his play - I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened to hear that Coach kind of nudged him in that direction.
-
As far as Silvio goes I just don’t see Self moving on from him. The amount of money and time the university has invested in him is pretty significant. Also, it’s clear Self has a soft spot for him. He also has a pretty serious GF at KU…
Now maybe he wants a change of scenery but I doubt that as well.

Williams coming for an unofficial the 24th. Not much to see here unless we offer, which seems unlikely. Hunter Sallis is a big time target in 21 though.

I just don’t see it with this kid. Not a p5 level athlete. Looks like a late emergency add if needed. He apparently won’t decide until April so it seems like he is aiming high and hoping a big school gets desperate.

After committing to Nebraska he sure is aiming higher.

Can’t help but like the kid after reading Chasen’s article. Wish him well wherever he ends up.
-
I still would take him over Josy. 6’5, physically built who can shoot. If that’s the 13th guy you can’t really complain
-
Williams coming in for another unofficial. Sounds like he is recruiting KU.

Williams ? - Williams ? - -help me out buddy , is this the guy that some Coach’s went to see and he just sucked ? – Whoever it is sounds like he really wants to come here , ya think ? - -just saying just interesting I know people said they really don’t want him – I’m just curious , and this kid would be a 2020 recruit ? - -Dam I’m confused , thought we were full. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 we are full, and haven’t offered him. Sounds like a contingency plan in case someone leaves unexpectedly.
And yeah he went 1-15 from three with KU coaches watching.
-
Maybe he’ll walk on lol
-
@BShark atleast he made one.
