Corey at Rivals is legit. This one’s over guys.

@FarmerJayhawk So…Does it looks like we have a good shot at Stanley or Beverly if Grimes leaves?
At this point I’d say Stanley is more likely than Beverly, but with Charlie gone we’ll have room for both if Grimes leaves. Beverly isn’t a guy that you’d want playing 30 MPG as a freshman.

@FarmerJayhawk yeah he’s picking Stanley to choose KU. I’m sure you knew that already though

Who is this in regards too ?
-
Hurt
-
Damn . I have no clue how Self is going to fill this recruiting class, but if he does so effectively I will never question him again.
I’m not holding my breath though. It’s looking pretty bleak to say the least.
-
Nobody should be surprised that Nike wins that recruitment
-
It’s funny how new recruits seem to be scared away from SDSs allegations but not when it comes to Duke
-
… R.J. Hampton continues to round out his game. The five-star’s talent level and athleticism makes him elite right off of the bat. Now that he can defend multiple spots, create for others and himself and has filled out more, the production has followed suit. Kansas and Memphis are the front-runners, with Duke and Kentucky not too far behind.

Most official twitter accounts for those who follow NCAAB are saying Hurt to Duke. Just sayin’…
-
@Gorilla72 yup it might be a good thing. I know a few people mentioned it but maybe recruiting too 10 players is a bad thing. They’ll most likely be gone the following year anyways.
I’m just nervous about UCLA getting Rick Barnes (which sounds very likely) and then swooping I’m on Stanley.
Every year there’s something to worry about during the off-season and Self finds a way. This year was just a perfect storm of unfortunate events happening at once. It’s certainly not the beginning of the end by any means.

If Rick does end up at UCLA he has no relationship with Stanley

Shat. Looks like Tre Jones is going back to dook. Think that swings Hurt to them. I assumed he was gone.
LETS GET RJ HAMPTON. WOOOO. lol…
IT IS OFFICIAL TRE JONES WIL BE BACK
-
So Duke out for Hampton then?

Duke is never out. That said, Memphis and KU are well positioned if Hampton reclasses.
-
Is he going to reclassify?
-
Hope so.
-
I’m just gonna say - -no evidence - nothing to really go of on - But I’m just gonna predict - -we end up with Stanley - -just like I was riding Devon’s boat for quite some time. - -Were getting Stanley
-
When is the deadline to decide whether a player can declare or return?
-
KirkIsMyHinrich said:

In 2019, yes.
-
And the way I understand it, RJ is out of eligibility in varsity TX HS competition. He’ll either transfer or go to college in 2019.

He hasn’t decided if hes going to stay at his high school or go some were eles
-
Offered Kyree Walker who is 2020 but already moved back a grade so could reclass. Stud wing.
-
UCLA is now recruiting Precious. That just seems like a weird recruitment all the way around.

Would take. Arkansas and Memphis the ones to beat
-
Money has always been the most important factor in that recruitment. Been hearing such for over a yr now
My good friend knows his old Jersey coach and unfortunately precious just has people in his circle that it is what it is. Whatever school gets him is just an 8 month rental anyway. A classic case of a kid that should be allowed to go pro. I dont think Roy could put up with his circle, he fits their style the best tho

That’s what I was trying to insinuate . It’s almost like they aren’t even hiding it. I mean he’s saying he is wide open to any school still.

I think the fact he visited Roy and Bill and left with those comments was alluding to that. Also that neither school could afford to risk him on their roster… unfortunate. Such a talent

@BeddieKU23 The whole money thing is making me sick.

Well I myself has some new energy/ new hope. Read an Article written by Cory Evans from rivals taking questions on recruiting - I felt some encourgement from what he had to say:
Cory was taking questions on recruiting. -he was ask the question was - - --With Tre Jones returning to Duke did this make Memphis the leader for RJ ? - - his response was - - -Well Memphis was the 1st program to host Hampton for an official back in September. Said he visited KU last month - - said he could also visit Duke & Kentucky in the coming weeks - - these 4 make up his final lists and with a crowded back court at Kentucky & the return of Tre Jones to Durham that it might be really difficult to see him at either with his desire to be used on the ball.
Cory then went on to say - -HOWEVER do not count out KU. -Charlie Moore just transferred out and there are some question marks surrounding Quentin. - - Cory said Devon will return to KU but Kansas - is still Kansas and that KU sits in just as good of a spot with Hampton as Memphis - -Gives me hope - would be huge.
Then Cory was asked - – What’s the latest on Precious and the School that he feels he goes to?
Cory responded saying - - total toss up right now with Precious Acheuiwa - - Georgia and North Carolina are the Dark Horse’s BUT KU & Memphis might be the MORE accurate predications as to what school he ends up - -Again sound like we are leading there with Memphis - -would be another huge pick up
If we were to end up with Precious and RJ would really turn our recruiting lass into a very nice class. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 “… our recruiting lass”
Hmmm, that might get us in trouble.
-
@jayballer73 so, are you calling it? That we are using the asses of lasses as a recruiting tool?
-
Brewtal transfer rumors, gutted roster potentially…a dizzying time to even begin to contemplate next season. Getting completely outclassed in NCAA tournament only mitigated by fact we were up/down all season, lineup changes degraded from preseason#1 down to starting 4 frosh. At least McCormack got developmental experience. Dedric plateaued talent, might as well earn Euros or fringeNBA money. Good luck to Moore in some mid major conf, he can start rt away at D2 level. KJ passing on a chance to be a versatile wing at 6’7.
Hope Silvio’s appeal after time-served will allow some eligibility this coming season, can only hope. Garrett, Dotson, Mitch all better shoot 600 3s/day in practice. Learn to play D from Self like TxTech and Va. proved you can with current rules.
So far Bruce Pearl has proved he can beat a veteran KU roster with 4 walkons, or he can cut & paste a non-veteran KU roster into the Tourney-discard-heap with equal gusto complete with made-for-camera-replay coach poses. He has definitely figured out the biz-corp approach to college bball, and is surprisingly good at it. Not sure I’d go so far as to say I’m personally entertained though. The fact he gutted 3 royalty programs in succession is a remarkable occurrence, though. We just cant seem to get 3ball defense consistently. Sigh…
-
Now that season is over, safe to say my favorite exTexTech player is…Patrick Mahomes.

I HAVE no fricken IDEA what the hell your talking about with all that jibber jabber -lmao - -I do know we are still in it for RJ & Precious - -I know that lmao
-
@Ralster That team your talking about - if I remember right outclassed as you say several other teams in the tourney - remember? - - Guess that makes them A PRETTY CLASSY team lmao

Ku and Kentucky will meet with Hurt this week. Presumably to be told he is not going to either

How does this uncertainty effect recruiting? It means recruits can speculate that a player of Grimes’ caliber could return until May 29, I suppose. It seems the late roster turnover hurts KUs recruiting most years. More upper class men are easy to replace as its easily predicable by recruits and coaches both.
A new NCAA rule allows a player who has declared for the draft to return to school even if he has enlisted the services of an agent to help him test his professional prospects. There are several stipulations attached, and if the player returns to school, he must end the relationship with the agent. The deadline to pull out of the draft is May 29.
80th ranked recruit

LFFFFFFFFFFG.
@dylans Grimes is the most gone ever. I think if he could have, he wouldn’t have bothered with a year of college.
-
@BShark He was never engaged. I
% agree, but will recruits see it the same way?
-
I think Grimes made it as clear as he could in his statement and Self backs it up. Should have a starting spot to sell to Stanley.
-
I wouldn’t say he was never engaged!
