I think it’s pretty hard to do everything right leaving a high profile school. Always had a lot of respect for Beilein. Maybe he’s a private guy and didn’t want to disrupt anyone, and didn’t think it was going to happen. I give him the benefit of the doubt here. And also, a free pass for a midlife changeup.
Doing this in Mid-May is a pretty crappy thing to do, regardless of whether or not you’re typically a nice guy.
Screws over current players. Screws over recruits. Screws over the program and university that you spent 12 years at. Screws over assistant coaches.
His only responsibility is to himself, but I’d sure feel like a real asshole doing this the way he did it and especially in the time frame that it happened.
totally agree 100% - gave no thought to players or staff seems pretty crappy. - -just walking out on everybody. - -HA different sport but along time ago - -this would be like the pro football franchise that moved out of the City they played in - -in the middle of the night like trying to get out of town with no one knowing - just leaving the City in like What the hell.
Just there was ALOT of ways he could of shown a little more class - instead twitter - seems pretty sad
-
Sorry…fake news on Twitter…whodathunkit?
-
Fwiw, Evan Daniels interview on CBS says he has been texting Wilson directly. The interview was from yesterday morning, but knowing that he has some direct contact makes me feel pretty good about him changing his pick last night…

true and Wilson said when ask by Daniels - - - Man I’m thinking, - -so maybe little luck he ask for release and I guess him and Hampton suppose to be pretty good friends. - - We would for sure have minutes for him - -this is starting again to look kind of interesting in this recruitment year.
On a side note has anyone heard anything about how the kid ( Moss ) ? - how his visit went - anything? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Did some searching on the Michigan board – seems like their fans too seem to believe that Wilson will ask for his release and come commit to Ku - -the main reason is because of him and RJ being best friends - -thing is we got to get RJ to come here 1st lol - -which I think is looking better,
Bossi mentioned he thought Wilson was under rated at 50 - in the National rankings - said he has a really good shot - says he thought he ought to be `10-15 spots higher
-
Hopefully it will all be over this weekend with RJ. He is literally make or break for next years team. Precious and Watford are for sure announcing this weekend so that will be all of the top 50 recruits except for Jaden McDaniels.
Although, you have to think Michigan is going to get a high major coach so there still could be more de commits pending who they hire.
-
Bossi put in a KU pick for RJ on Rivals…
-
@Woodrow I think Juwan Howard gets the UM job. Just a hunch. Most expect Wilson to ask out of his LOI and if he does, come to Kansas with RJ.

That would be a slam dunk hire. Dude is well liked in hoops circles from everything I’ve read.

hail@umgobluehail 4h Jalen Wilson took Michigan out of his bio hee gone
-
Chris Beard the Vegas favorite for the job…
-
@Kcmatt7 think he’ll take it?

Hmmmm , thinking there is anything to this? – ya think he is going to ask for his release?
I know on their board they wee saying they was thinking within the week he would ask for his release , and that now days in general it’s just better for the school if they grant the release - cause if not it’s just a bad look on the school. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Woodrow I looked up Precious stats, and he had 23 turnovers in 8 games. He shot 22% from 3. It appears he would definitely be a project.

I don’t know, I’m sure there is a reason Vegas has him as the current favorite.
-
I feel like you’d have to be stupid to hire Pitino, but he’s second favorite at the moment.

I want no part of him and I will die on this hill. Projects that only stay one year are pointless.

He’s better than anyone we have on the roster now at the 4 spot.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I still think he would be the kind of signing that would under perform a negative used against Self in recruiting.

He may, but he’s better than trotting out Marcus at the 4 and having Mitch as the backup 4 (assuming no Silvio, which if we have him it’s all moot anyway)
-
@BShark No I’m with you. I’d rather give playing time to DMac and Enaruna next season because they’ll be around for multiple years and could turn into very good players.

-
Pretty pathetic, wow
-
So lets play what if. - -What if both wanted to come to and commit to KU now - we had the choice on who to take - - -Precious - - OR Jalen - - who would you take and why? - - both listed as SF - -Precious at like # 13-14 - - -Jalen # 50 - -who you take? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Jalen

Jalen comes without baggage and ego.
We don’t have to worry though Precious is done to Memphis

did he say something to that effect? - -I would rather have Jalen to if that came into play - - better by far shooter - Precious bigger body but raw
-
Well just checked. - - Saw where Dylan Prezkop just put in his CB for RJ to KU predicting RJ coming to KU - -takes us up to 75 % - -HELL YA - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Completely agree … strong belief we should pass. But options are few.
-
@jayballer73 Jalen, and it’s not close. I told a Memphis fan I hope they hadn’t run out of money, and could take Precious off our hands…
-
@KUSTEVE Easy choice there … Jalen in a runaway.

I’m quite sure that Penny still has a few bucks laying around. A few that would be very hard to trace if one or two happened to fall into a player’s hands.
-
Well maybe not so fast/easy of a decision for us to make. that’s IF there is an option to be made.
Was checking out the Michigan boards and there was a guy I think he is one of their insiders guy just like we have us who try and keep us up to date with their players/recruiting and such
Guy named Eathen Sears and this was Yesterday he said: Just got off the phone with Jalen , and Jalen has said that multiple Michigan assistants have reached out to him - - -Jalen said he is still committed to Michigan and that Jalen ha d also talked to Cole Bajema who also is still committed to Michigan
I’m just not really that sure about Jalen asking for his release. - - Also seen this today off the board. - -Jalen has said he is going to wait to see who Michigan hires before he makes a decision & see what the new Coach’s sales pitch is.
Some people had said he had removed all his Michigan stuf off twitter, but was noted on the Michigan board that he was still following several Michigan players and such - - - I am not really expecting him coming - I think he stays put. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So Adam Zagoria just tweeted that his prediction for Precious was KU. He only tweets out predictions days before the announcements and is hardly ever wrong. I am still not sold we get him, but I was surprised by this.
-
However, just saw Evan Daniels put in his CB pick for Memphis for Precious this morning.

Not sure we get him either but there is definitely something going on here. Made a push or something…

Playa is rarely wrong as well. I think it’s Memphis, but we will see.

IT WILL BE MEMPHIS IT ALL WAY HAS BEEN

Why arent we trying to sign Apollo Jackson or Poseidon Williams? It seems, at this point, that we could sure use them. Signing any player, even a mythological one, is better than none at all. “Hey, when are we going to see Apollo Jackson in action?,” the broadcaster asks. “I notice you’re starting a walk-on instead.” “…Err, well, Apollo’s visiting family in another country right now… Don’t worry, though, you will eventually see him.”
-
On a serious note, and as I have stated, I believe that Achiuwa and Hampton are a package deal and that they both are going to sign with KU.

Fisher’s only plugged into Kentucky recruits. There are reasons a lot of programs stayed clear of him. Not KU though, the messier the player the better

I got a hot tip on a under recruited kid - -this guys is an animal - -Stands 6"11 - - 245 lbs - - PF - -out of it’s been done Florida , name of Zeus , it’s happening - -think we got a great shot at THIS mythological - - GREAT mythological player goes to a School that’s un-defeated - think the School’s name is Nike ( give me the money ) - - LMAO - -Hey you said even a Mythological - -here he is - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 Well NOW it’s Offical - - Offical. – Quentin Grimes will NOT be back for the upcoming season.
Just read where Quentin stated last night saying that he had sign a 3 yr - - - 158 Million deal with the Barber Shop Quartet - - making him their highest paid player in their History. - -Who ever the hell they are lol - -Well good Luck Quentin you got some money. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So, you’re calling it, huh? That’s good news, indeed. If we can sign Zeus and then maybe throw in a little extra cash we might also stand a puncher’s chance at getting Apollo and Poseidon. It’s worth a shot…

Another guy to keep an eye on is Thor Jordan, nephew to Adonis who was a helluva player at KU.

Hell lets give a holler to Gatto - I’m sure he can help us out lol

Guys help me out. - I’m really confused - -I know - - I know I’m confused a lot of the time but - -Still , everywhere I look - -everything I’m reading is or sounds like that Kyree has already made the decision or already has re-classified.
Read a guy asking about when was Kyree’s announcement date? - making it sound like he has already re-classified - did I miss the boat on this? - For sure I want this guy BAD - I’ve wanted him for awhile but the last I knew Kyree had said he wasn’t even concentrating on re-classifying at the present - did something change? and I missed it? ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 He has not reclassified.

Woodrow said:
@jayballer73 He has not reclassified. So what’s all this Hub-Bub about then? - -did he say he was going to have an announcement about re-classifying or not?
