2020 Recruiting
-
Reminder: 2020 unlike 18 and 19 is a LOADED class. Let’s make it a big one Bill.
-
Yes ,you are right 2020 is definitely a loaded class, lots of talent
-
Sounds like Okie Lite is going to hire Cade Cunningham’s brother as an assistant.
-
@FarmerJayhawk that stinks! For a year?

KU has recently offered and looks to be recruiting Top 50 PG Karim Mane of Canada. A 6’5 PG might fit the combo mold Self likes to recruit. Will be one to monitor
-
@BShark heard he was a videographer for Tulane?

Yes please.
Edit: He seems genuinely interested.

New 2020 player rankings. Bryce Thompson jumped all the way up to #19!! Jumped 70 spots.
-
@Woodrow He’s really freaking good. Bill needs to close this one.
-
Yeah Bryce is definitely a hooper
-
Really seems like he made that jump from last yr. I think showing he can play PG with his scoring ability has changed his ceiling
-
Who thought that Thompson would jump that high? I sure the hell didn’t. But I have always liked Thompson and hope that we can sign him, maybe get him, Berry and a guy like Xavier Foster come November - get 'em wrapped early. Going to be real tough - if not close to impossible - to get Foster out of Iowa, though.
Isaiah Cottrell, Kyree Walker, Bryce Thompson and Ty Berry? I’d take that in a heartbeat. If that class were to somehow fall in place we would still need one more big.
-
If Duke came calling, Foster would teleport out of Iowa.

Interesting list. They still have Harvey 80% percent KU lean.
-
@Marco I wouldn’t put any stock into those %. Those are based off of people’s picks. What happens is people go in and log a pick and might have been a year ago and then a school stops recruiting him and people don’t change their picks. Those % are worthless until about a month or so before someone announces.
-
@Woodrow yep
All those Harvey picks are super old and I believe KU stopped recruiting him.

the only way those% change is if someone makes another prediction - -these picks are suppose to be coming from people that follow these kids around the circuts - talk to them almost daily - and some of these guys just follow another lead - about the only legit one’s I pay attention to is Evan Daniels - - Jerry Meyer - - & Eric Bossi - - & Andrew slater - they are usually pretty legit - -the rest just usually piggy back off those 4
-
What do you guys think of Isaiah Cottrell? Seems, if we sign him, to be an immediate contributor - not a star - who will work hard.

Program guy. Going to need more in that class. Dream 2020 class, assuming Dotson and Silvio go pro, and we land Wilson, Walker, and Bilau: Daishen Nix, Makur Maker, and Bryce Thompson. So the starting lineup would look something like Nix, Walker, Agbaji, Wilson, Maker. That team could play stupid, stupid fast.
-
@FarmerJayhawk That is one hefty recruiting class. If we signed all five of those guys you certainly wouldn’t hear me bitching, Lol
-
@FarmerJayhawk Maker at the 5, Bilau 4, Walker a 3, Nix the 1 and Thompson the 2 - not too shabby…!

How good is he? Didn’t think we were on him that heavy. That is, until now. I think our 2020 class is going to be loaded. Alot of great depth in that class overall from top to bottom. A team could sign 5 players at the bottom of that list and stiil have themselves a great recruiting class.

Really talented kid. Plus athlete, really good scorer. I don’t think he can run the point full time yet, but he’d be a nice complement to Nix, who’s more of a traditional PG. Self would love him. He’s a terrific penetrator and has a really good handle. His jumper is streaky but some of that is probably just from his lack of a good S&C program.
-
@FarmerJayhawk kind of like Sherron Collins but bigger?

Bigger vertically but much smaller horizontally
-
@FarmerJayhawk Can’t see Maker playing in college.

I concur. Won’t stop Self from recruiting him though.
-
ku has offer five-star jr caleb love on his unofficial visit today
-
Isiah Cottrell is trending to West Virginia. Wonder what that’s about
-
@BeddieKU23 Money probably. But he has ties to every main contending school on his list except KU. I believe he is from the WVU area originally. Still has family there.

Thx I didn’t dig to find if he visited or anything. Would be a quality signing for them if he does go there
-
@BeddieKU23 I know KU was in there pretty good and I was hoping he would be a Jayhawk. Still pretty early but obviously something cause that CB train.

I agree he would have been a solid option for KU as well. We know we are going to need bigs.

Bryce Thompson will be in LFK next week.

Lock him up Bill.
-
I think we have a great shot there. KU, OU, UNC his top 3. He’ll be a fall signee
-
Great news
-
@FarmerJayhawk I tried to figure out what LFK meant for like a minute before finally giving up and searching the acronym via google. Maybe it’s because you seem wholesome, and swearing doesn’t bother me at all, but I was not expecting it to be what it was, even though it was very obvious.
Anyway… carry on.

So , from my perspective it looks like we are finally wrapping up out 2019 recruiting -should be finished tomorrow afternoon. - So , with that being said I wanted to put out my early Christmas wish for 2020 hoping we don’t have so many misses like this year and we can get started - we are getting a late start although know we have been recruiting some for it also. - -So here is my wants - would love to have - -thinking we will need PG ,SG , SF ,and Bigs - Sooo:
