2020 Recruiting



  • @FarmerJayhawk @BShark Is there a heavy “swoosh” influence at work with Love?



  • Little interesting to hear. - - Off Kentucky Board , article where Nix says he STILL would like a visit to UK.

    Their posters saying looks like Cal isn’t even really interested that much about him -Saying it’s looking like they are going to be really Guard Top Heavy

    They talk like they are more interested in Christopher @ Point And Green at the SG - saying they already have Boston - - Good chance Quickly is back -Juzang good chance he will return - -possibility of Allen back - -and then Clark good chance of him re-classifying and thinkin they have a great shot at him

    Sounds fine with me - -be just one less School we would have to go up against for the possibility of coming. - -Talking about Nix is really big/solid - - great passer - - but knock on him I guess is his jump shot – has no shot – - well we shall see how it turns out - -hopefully we can get a visit from him - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Have we heard anymore on the JT Thor thing? - -Do we know is he going to visit or what? - -Do we want? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Anybody else heard anything on a offer to Javante Brown ? = - - -KU - - Texas A & M - - - U Conn - - -Indiana - - -Marquette - - Stanford – & Purdue - -7 footer - -I looked and off 247 he like ranked 115 th? - - ummmmm - this is what we want? - - just curious - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

    Haven’t heard of anything out of the ordinary.



  • @jayballer73 Thor will visit. Not sure when. Could be Late Night.

    Not much will happen with Brown unless (until?) he reclassifies to 2020.

    Would we want Brown - looks like he might be a project - -4 yr player - -any info on him?

    All I really know is he’s very large and very Canadian

    Which Brown?



  • @BShark Kwame has four years of eligibility left. A bit long in the tooth, though.

  • I read yesterday that Nix was going to cut his list to 5 today. Has anyone seen anything on that?

    Also we made the top 10 for Jaemyn Brakefield. Bot sure how big of a player KU is in that one though.

    Brakefield is a big take.

    He announced it’s happening. Prediction: Kentucky, Maryland, Alabama, KU, UCLA.

    I don’t think we are a player for Brakefield - -interesting to see we even made the top 10. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • Anybody know for sure exactly how serious things are with RJ Davis? - - I mean are we in any kind of shape with him or what? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • jayballer73 said:

    Definitely behind a handful of guys on our board.

    ya I didn’t think he was tip top - - good player but think we have other options

    Yesssss. Still got it. UCLA, UK, and KU is the “list within the list” IMO. Kentucky hasn’t offered yet and is in the top 5.



  • FarmerJayhawk said:

    Omegalul.

    Jalen Green is their big target though.



  • @FarmerJayhawk Stated this sometime back. - - - off their Board - - they don’t think Cal is as interested in Nix as Nix - - -is in UK.

    They are more focused on Christopher @ PG they say and Green at SG. - -Guard top heavy.

    Already have Boston - -Quickley probably returning - -Clark re-classifying -I think in less UK misses on these others - - we aren’t gonna have to worry about them.

    Just because a player lists his top five - -doesn’t mean he is a school’s top 5 - -Kentucky has other interest at this point - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @jayballer73 100% agree. If it’s a fall decision, it won’t be UK. Nix was at LA today for an official, but still working on scheduling one to KU. It wouldn’t surprise me to see Nix and Thompson visit the same weekend to develop some chemistry, and KU is the only school they have in common.



  • Love looks nice. Real nice. Is there a legit chance KU lands him?

    That would be a nice combo to land for sure - - not feeling as good as I was about Thompson - -sounds like Okie-State trying to slither him in with oh what’s his name? - - Cunningham? - - is that it ? - -can’t remember - but looks like those two are bud’s - I mean still feel fairly good on him but not like I did. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • dylans said:

    Just me? - - feels like w stand a fairly decent chance. - Wouldn’t say we wee a clear cut leader by any means - But think we are right there. - -

    Actually though I think we stand a better chance at landing Nix then Love. - -You wouldn’t hear me bitching about that though if that turned out to be the case. - -I think Both are pretty dam good players - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • dylans said:

    I think we do and the last visit could be key here. Some recent chatter that UNC leads. Hopefully he takes all his visits.



  • Nix and Thompson or Nix and Love, would take - bigtime! - any combination of both, perhaps throwing in a Brakefield and Garcia for good measure.

    I think our chances for Brakefield are next to none - -feel between those two Garcia is the better bet



  • Well Nix just committed to UCLA. Damn.



  • FarmerJayhawk said:

    So much for the visit.



  • @BShark especially since as of last week the camps were working on dates.



  • So dumb. Why even come out with a top 5 and then commit the next day…



  • @Woodrow it was a bargaining chip. it drove his price up. hard pass…



  • I was going to post yesterday I would be surprised if he let Cali without committing. Once there was chatter UCLA led and him taking the first visit there with no other scheduled visits. Made a ton of sense.



  • Woodrow said:

    Better then stringing along programs during visits

    Down the list of targets we go.



  • @BeddieKU23 Oh I agree 100%. Just don’t see the need to come out with a list. Just go take your visit and commit.

    I hope the staff is prioritizing Love and Thompson.

    I hope so, too…



  • Okay, so much for Nix. Time to concentrate on Garcia, Love and or Thompson, and Brakefield - and add a couple of top one hundreds…



  • Not getting any of them imo but esp not JB who will be at Kentucky.



  • FarmerJayhawk said:

    Well Nix just committed to UCLA. Damn.

    Well Holy bat crap - - batman – sure me look good - -I had just stated earlier that I thought we had a better chance for nix then love - - - goes to show how much I know.

    Had just read the article had he had broke down his 5 schools - -talked about how KU & Kentucky was dream schools – guess since he thought he couldn’t get his dream school as he was wanting to visit Kentucky bad -but again not sure they were as interested in him as him them - - since that didn’t happen he decided on a Nightmare instead. - - He talked about Cronin changing from slow to fast - -well goodie. - NEXT - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

    Must’ve been thinking of some other kid that’s a uk lock. Honestly a bit annoying to sift through because some number of people act like anyone uk shows interest in is a “lock”.

    Yet another example of teenage kids right? - - I mean just another example - -Nix just listed his 5 yesterday and commits today to UCLA - -and JB just listed his top 10 yesterday at least that’s how zags had the story - listed his top 10 yesterday and now you say he cut Kentucky today? - or am I missing something here - if he did - -that’s crazy. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @BShark I agree. Our returning depth in 2020 in both the back and frontcourt is going to help yet as far as signing any top 20 recruits also hurt us. Imo, we need to concentrate bigtime on recruits in the 30 to 75 range.
