Thanks I haven’t kept up to date on him. I know he’s had a good spring/early summer so far. Figured he’d be a big commodity out there. Hopefully KU keeps pushing forward on him
-
Not sure if this was posted, but Bryce Thompson is taking a unofficial visit to UNC this week I believe and then is supposed to come to Lawrence. Wouldn’t be surprised if it isn’t us and UNC fighting for him until the end.

Definitely feels that way. Let’s go two in a row beating UNC for recruits!

@KUSTEVE I respect your opinion and that of the coaches, but I don’t. Moore could play too, right?
Charlie had some personal things going on that affected his play. Just wasn’t all there most of the year.

Nix is generally considered option #1 right on the board?? Still trying to get a feel of where his interest is in KU in relation to others
I think they want 2 of Nix, Love, and Thompson. I feel the best about Thompson today, then Nix, then Love. Could see us locking Thompson down at Late Night or whereabouts. Nix and Love might be spring guys.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Full court press for Thompson imo.
-
Yup. The thought is he’s more of a 2, Nix a pure PG and they could coexist wonderfully.
-
@FarmerJayhawk would love for us to sign Thompson at Late Night. A Thompson and Nix backcourt, I’d take that.
-
Sounds like he will be a Tarhole.

Probably ends up staying there 4 years too
-
@Kcmatt7 Pass the beer. This would be a brutal miss.
-
did they Illuminatingly place a bag of “stuff” in his go bag.
If he doesn’t visit KU after this we know the deal

Exactly. Hopefully KU still gets a shot.
-
That article made it sound like he wouldn’t be visiting due to conflict with a camp. Code for silent commit if he bails on the visit
-
@Marco We need to sign Dante.
I hear he’s an inferno…

No chance for more than one reason.

They will

OK saw off the Phog - -talking about top 247 guard set to visit Kansas - need your help - -is that Thompson?
-
@jayballer73 Man, I hope. Last I heard there was some kind of scheduling conflict.

He’s making it this weekend. Gotta hit a HR.
-
@BShark Agreed.

not sure buddy, - all I know off the phog titles it had 5 star top 247 I think said combo guard sit to visit Ku - -the story was under VIP so couldn’t read it - hope it is. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 @BShark Just said that it is, indeed, Thompson. Need to hit a grand slam!

Cool - -wasn’t really sure?
-
I want to see Thompson ball at KU. I have a good feeling about this one guys.
-
Have to counter that UNC visit. Big weekend
-
@BeddieKU23 he didn’t come, did he?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 he is. Probably having fun with his friend Mayberry. Close this one Bill.

He averaged 17.5 points per game and shot almost 44 percent from three on the EYBL circuit this spring. Nike battle

@BeddieKU23 Eh, never know.

WANT. Similar player to Xavier Foster.
-
Yup, not only want he’s a major NEED
-
@FarmerJayhawk Looks like a beast to me, pogo stick. Appears to be Adidas for now, I like our chances against Marquette and Indiana if that holds.

Right we don’t. We have some positive momentum at least with Enaruan/Wilson/White recently.
Big need on the big we just offered. Let’s see where that one goes. Have no clue which way he might be leaning

Surprised Duke isn’t involved considering the success they’ve had with Minnesota kids recently.
-
@BeddieKU23 The main hope would be that he is close to McBride. If there is a shoe thing and he wants KU, then it wouldn’t be hard to get him switched. We see it happen all the time when a kid wants a school but people involved also want to get paid.

Duke comes in and gets players whenever they want, they don’t have to be involved early. I’m sure if they have to move down their want list, they could get involved.
-
Is he close with McBride? I see they are from the same state
-
@BeddieKU23 They definitely know each other, how deep it goes idk.
-

Not KU but Baylor has been cleaning up in 2020 recruiting so far. Already signed a Top 100 PG. Just signed a Top 50 Center. Two sit out transfers as well. Drew doing his thing.
-
@BeddieKU23 Recruit well, get swept by Bill. Rinse repeat.

Right now 2020-21 season, Oklahoma & Baylor look to have salty rosters if majority stay in place.
Baylor is full up on scholarships for 2 years right now. Obviously won’t last but its interesting strategy
-
@BShark do we know how Thompson’s visit went?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 it went well. I think he’ll be back in the fall for an official.
-
@BShark I’m pretty high on Xavier Foster, but if we can get this guy (who I’ve never heard of but seems to be a baller) I would be very happy. Is it just me or has there been a KU recruiting shift, concentrating mostly on four stars rather than a boatload of fives? I think there has been, and I’m all in.
-
I’d take either one for sure.

Nope. KU is still recruiting the burger boys as hard as ever.
