New 2019 Recruiting
-
-
@BShark Could Ochai play the 4? Or do we want a bigger body at the 4?
-
@KUSTEVE Oh, he could play the 4.
If we end up short a post player again, we are bound to see the 4 guard.
It should also be noted that Tucker seems to be a plus rebounder for his size and position. We could definitely go 4-guard next year if it came down to it.

Corey must know something to change his pick. He might not be Evan Daniels, but he’s not far behind.
-
@Kcmatt7 I’ll ask him and see if he bites lol

Very true my friend. - - looked at some other things after I posted this. - - Seems that Corey flipped his pick to us - - then Gershon followed suit and also changed his pick to us – & then seen the Evan Daniels CB pick for Precious is that cloudy/ I dunno mode now.
There is becoming so many combinations/possibilities - now even as remote as they once may of seemed my head is spinning. - Could be from my refreshment last night/Bourbon lol - but just saying.
ya know like Holyfield/De Sousa - - Precious Holyfield - - - Holyfield/Tristan - -anyone of these guys possibilities - -dammit just commit lmao - -my head is spinning lol.
Also saw that Rayjon was not on the list for NBA combine , I would think that would remove that possibility for him now.
I sure thought some time back that Precious was going to make his announcement/pick some time back - -or REAL soon. - Tells me he is still open. - -ROCK CHALKALL DAY LONG BABY
-
On a little side note - - -read where Silvio & Quentin are having work outs today for the Atlanta Hawks a pre draft work out for them - -and also Ositkowski from Texas is also working out today for them ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Whew! I thought I was the only guy coming back every 15 minutes…
-
@FarmerJayhawk Waaaaat?
-
Seen a post saying that the last 4 twitter accounts that Rayjon has followed on twitter have been Ochai - - - Mitch - - - Zoe Hill ( Volleyball player ) - - and some female RdnReed - --who has Free Silvio in her Bio - - FWIW - -not much but anyways - lol

Do you have to be a subscriber to see these picks? Where is it??
-
@Woodrow It’s on Rivals.
-
@dylans yeah! It’s wild man. I don’t buy it since I haven’t heard KU connected to Precious really since his visit but we’ll see. @Woodrow I don’t think so? Just go to the player page and it’s at the bottom of each player’s profile.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I thought it was done to Memphis. Not sure I buy this especially after KU just took Enaruna.

This is why we resigned with Adidas right? Did that new contract also come with a new bag man?

Well it sure as shit won’t be the guy that got caught anymore lol.
Probably just a coincidence that recruiting has REALLY picked up after finalizing that deal though…

It’s amazing how these things are just totally not related whatsoever and in no way, shape, or form whistles past graveyard

From Corey, “It’s a few separate sources. Nothing legitimate. Going out on the limb some but this is not a done deal for Memphis. Going back and fourth on each. UNC, too. Believe that Kansas will get him in the end but not definite.”
-
Going to go on record now that I don’t really want Precious. I’m sure if he ends up at KU that I will jedi mind trick myself but I just don’t see it with him in one year. His ranking seems purely based on potential. I think it would end up being a similar situation to Cheick.
-
@BShark Could go one of two ways. Hard to turn down talent, especially if you have the open scholarship.
-
@BShark you always take talent. Bill will figure out what to do with it. It won’t be like Cheick. They’re just different players. Precious doesn’t have a bad BBIQ like Cheick, he’s just kind of raw yet. I’d rather have Silvio, but if we get Precious I’ll be good with it.
-
@FarmerJayhawk This is exactly what I just told @BShark as well.
-
Interesting… Hampton and Precious (they seem to be a package deal) joining Enaruna, Braun and McBride along with Tucker - who I think we’ll also get - is a monster class that - if it happens - could, perhaps, be the best that Coach Self has ever had.
-
Do we have enough
to keep everyone happy, especially if Silvio comes back?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Silvio will not be back.
-
@Marco you know?
-
@FarmerJayhawk I’m worried based on what I’ve seen. He’s a big time brick mason and he’s got a handler and they are going to be focused on his brand and want him to be taking shots.
@Marco Gut feeling? I think if the staff is really getting back in there with Precious then they certainly think the news is going to be bad for Silvio. This would be an absolute 180 from recent vibes.

Saw off 247 where Memphis got another CB pick for Precious today - -it’s ok - - Think we are going to be all right. - -Man I just wish we could get a finalization on Silvio - -the kid has suffered enough - let the kid play or end it so he can be on his way - this dam thing just drags on because of this fricken NCAA

Yeah I don’t see us really going after Precious unless Silvio’s situation goes sideways. And Holyfield is still out there so it may all be moot anyhow.

Gut feeling. I think that he won’t be back for the reason that you stated above. Hampton and Precious seem - I may be wrong (it wouldn’t be the first, Lol) - to be a package deal. The NCAA really double-dribbled in the handling of De Sousa. “We gave the 2-year ban and, by god, we have to stick to it. We might appear wrong and weak otherwise,” is what they could be saying to themselves.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I don’t know for sure that he’ll be gone, but just looking at what more and more seems to be a Hampton/Precious package deal coming to Lawrence it sure has that vibe.

Except it’s not “the NCAA” that’s deciding Silvio’s fate. It’s an independent appeals committee made up of a bunch of different people not affiliated with the NCAA.

I stand corrected, sir. Appreciate the info. Sure the hell wish that they would hurry up so we don’t whiff on recruits while waiting. The NCAA was beyond wrong in giving a 2-year ban. We shall see, though. Who would you want (De Sousa aside), Holyfield or Precious?

No worries my man! I think that’s the biggest reason there’s such optimism on KU’s side. They feel the facts of the case and the punishment are way out of whack and most reasonable folks will see it their way.
I definitely have a biased opinion, but I’ll take Precious. I really like Holyfield, and if he had played last year I’d probably take him. But a right shoulder injury makes me nervous, especially when shooting is one of his calling cards. Precious isn’t perfect either. He’s not a great shooter and his feel for the game isn’t there yet, but he’s an elite athlete with the tools Self and co can mold into a really good player if Precious will take coaching. And I think he will. But there’s not a massive gap there.
-
I’d rather have De Sousa than I would Holyfield or Achiuwa. But if we don’t get Silvio back for next season, I’d rather have one year of the senior who can shoot 3-pointers and play defense.

Amen.
-
I reaaaaally want Silvio, but I don’t trust the situation.
-
If KU lands Hampton and Achiuwa, KU’s class goes from #31 to #4 on 247. With Juzang going to Kentucky they would have the #1 class.
-
Precious got another prediction for KU on rivals today.
-
From their Memphis writer. Interesting.
I’ll add I’m still skeptical of any Precious to Kansas talk as long as Silvio is still in limbo. I think they’re still recruiting him, but can’t see them doing what it takes to land him unless Silvio is gone.
