Miami just added Keith Stone as a grad transfer so not sure how much room they have for Enaruna now.
If we can’t beat out Creighton…
Though it wouldn’t be the first time…

They only had 6 scholarship players going into the signing period. Not sure that deters him from them but I’d love for that to actually be a thing that impacts a team like it seems to KU

Could be too that they felt they weren’t in it Seriously for Enaruna anymore. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Enaruna is still a big need for Miami. They don’t have a SF on the roster
-
I think Creighton is out for Enaruna as they hosted a 3 star SG/SF prospect yesterday for an official visit and are likely to land him. Down to KU/Miami it looks. Both Adidas schools
-
He would be a very nice depth add. He does have the feel of a guy who may struggle to ever see meaningful minutes though. Unless he embraces becoming a stretch 4

From what I’ve seen, he’s definitely a college 4.

Agreed
-
If he wants to play immediately Miami is probably his best option. He didn’t even have a large role on his HS team from what I saw a few weeks ago when they played Oak Hill which has an entire D-1 roster. I see the upside with him but I think his readiness is being overblown at a place like KU. I wonder what his plan is now that he’s gotten a bunch of exposure and scouts interest
-
Cole Anthony to Roy.
Still not a great team with him but he makes them better
-
I think Enaruna is a guy that starts as a JR. Hopefully the huge exposure uptick didn’t inflate the ego of his circle.
From the beginning it was hard to imagine Cole Anthony playing literally anywhere else.
-
Who’s going to land McDaniels? Sounds like a potential high profile bust. 2 of our boys showing up on the 2020 draft board.
-
Not a ESPN + subscriber but if you are talking about Jaden McDaniels Washington has long been the favorite to land him, but I think Kentucky is still in there.
-
Most believe he ends up at Washington after Kentucky took the grad transfer from Bucknell.
-
Had to laugh yesterday when I seen a post that showed Cole Aldridge’s tweet - - Said Duke just became a luxury tax provider after getting commits from Hurt and Stanley - - -gotta love it . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Bossi thinks Precious ends up at Memphis with Watford now leaning towards LSU with Wade back.

I detect no lies.

New here. Had to get away from the other boards that have devolved into nothing but incessant bickering, regardless of thread or topic.
Rock Chalk!

@Wifflehead Welcome friend.

Yes and me neither, but I can read the articles for some reason.

Rock Chalk! Mostly civil here, but occasional squabbles do happen due to the passion of the fans. Nothing overboard though. Welcome to the fam.
-
@dylans Thanks! Based on the non-stop petulant arguments involving the same people again and again that I’ve been accustomed to at the other place, the occasional squabble will be a sight for sore eyes. Lol.

There are posters that think KU might not even make the NIT next year, others calling for Self to be fired etc…

Sounds about normal. Imagine if Doke didn’t come back.
Hasn’t been a good year even I am restless with all the negativity surrounding the program and recruiting. Hopefully once this roster is in place I’ll snap out of it
-
@BeddieKU23 Doke certainly improved the baseline but I think there is still a wild swing for next year based on guys KU is still in on. Add Tucker and Holyfield and that’s a top 10 roster easily.
-
@BeddieKU23 I wasnt

Doke being back is monumental, if healthy. That’s the million dollar question that will loom over the team every game and every practice.
I agree that adding those two transfers alone would make this a Top 10 team if Dotson returns. I guess we shall see what happens.
-
The question is, who is even good next year?
UNC taking a step back. Duke has a great class coming in, but Carey isn’t Zion and Hurt isn’t Barrett. Marquette could have been a top 10 team if the brothers had stayed. Virginia is losing their top 3 players. Tech lost some players. Yet to be seen at Memphis. Georgia has Tom Crean as HC.
UK and MSU are 1A and 1B.
After that it’s a crapshoot. At least that’s what it looks like to me.
-
Looks like Johnny Juzang is going to reclassify to 2019 and commit to Kentucky. He just scheduled a OV there for Monday. KU was believed to be a leader for him a while back.

Well he was Adidas but you know, Cal decides he needs a player and Nike is like okay we got this.
-
That’s funny. Juzang is good, not elite by any means. Cant see him playing much
-
It’s unreal. Duke and UK getting top guys for bench spots. We can’t sell a starting spot.
-
Dam Saw Jeff Goodman updated his to early top 25 today. - - Jumped KU all the way up to # 3 in the Nation behind Michigan State and Duke. - -Dam - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

This blows my mind as well. Makes no sense at all.
-
A lot of you follow recruiting closer than I do. But, given the way top recruits have shied away from us, I am not hopeful that anyone that thinks they are going to be here one year is coming. I am thinking Holyfield, Tucker , etc. are going to shy away just as the top freshmen have.

COREY EVANS @COREYEVANS13M UK JOHN CALIPARI IS EXPCETED IN TOMORROW FOR TOP- FIVE JUNIOR RJ HAMPTON, A SOURE TELLS @RIVALS @ROWLANDRIVALS

@JAYHAWKFAN214 Could you interpret that? It makes no sense what you wrote.

UK COACH IS GONING TO GO SEE RJ HAMPTON
-
At this point, I’m going to let all of you do the research and keep me informed about which recruits may or may not come to KU - these shoe company connections and how spoiled these kids are who may or may not make it to - yes, I’m calling it - a dying NBA (which I quit watching a long time ago) is really urking me. Hell, even prognosticators like Wilbon no longer hide the fact that defense is not even played and that the fix is often in. Coach Self will sign a few more recruits and that coupled with what we have coming back will make a more than solid team next season. After that all of the FBI/NCAA crap will be behind us, and even if there is punishment - which I do not see us getting - we will be able to recruit accordingly. All will be fine in Jayhawk basketball land. Why? We are KU, that’s why.

Hampton is coming. It just has that feel. And I’ll eat my words about Adidas today.

I’m trying to not get excited but it’s hard. I hope this decision is mostly up to RJ.
