And yes @Crimsonorblue22 is a nice lady.
Joke!
I know, right! Crimson, nice, what a joke.

@Marco there are more than one of us, so watch out!

Well guys , I hate to be a guy that pee’s on peoples parades BUT - - -I’m just not feeling it with Jalen. I just don’t get that feel he is coming here. - -You would of thought he might of at least said that he had a good visit on his twitter or something - - been really quiet on it from other KU fans/people - -just noting being said period. - -unlike when Rayjon Tucker was here it was lighting up - - -just real quiet - the only thing I seen was when he was coming in and he said - - Whx up Lawrence? - -basically it.
Read N Carolina board - -pretty mixed over their about 50/50 thinking he might go there. - -Had to laugh at one of the posters made the remark that he had wanted N Carolina the 1st time around. -Thought not sure what article you seen that but best read again. - -He had made the comment that before he visited Michigan he was pretty set on KU - -talked about how he really liked the Morris twins.
I have just felt this for awhile now - -I think with Michigan hiring Howard - -and Howard having set up a time to talk with him - - I just really think Jalen ends up re-committing to Michigan - I hate it , but I think is going to stay put. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Tucker’s attention to social media didn’t help us.
He has his UNC visit followed by a decision. I figure they are going to keep quiet until the decision is reached. Hopefully some info from the staff leaks out about their confidence in getting him
-
Per usual, KU killed the visit
-
@FarmerJayhawk Making a decision after UNC visit?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich yessir. Juwan Howard will try for an in-home and Wilson may take it but I don’t think they’re a serious player as of now.

From another one: You’d be wise to listen to Crim

Well according to Wilson the two most important things are his role and impact on the team. If that’s true then it would be hard to find a better place than KU next season. I’m skeptical, though. I’m sure there’s a little bit of green tint in his sunglasses.

He’ll try. UNC has never had visits as good as KU. UNC has to have a good answer for Wilson’s role, which is far from a sure thing since Roy signed like 5 perimeter players already in 2019 and Roy sold them all on immediate PT, with the exception of Francis.
-
UNC’s maxed at 13 scholarships right now. So would UNC’s pitch to Wilson, other than a few bags of cash, be playing time for the 2020 season?
-
Shea Rush would go back to being a walk-on

From txhawk on the phog
"According to Williamson’s HS coach, who I worked with directly for 6 years, Sam (and more so his mother) did not get a good vibe on their official visit. The mom felt like KU wasn’t making him a high enough priority at the time. Louisville quickly told Sam what he wanted to hear, and the deal was done. "
Lines up with stuff I was seeing at the time (albeit from more suspicious posters) and wooooof.

I heard Self pushed hard for a commitment and drove Sam’s mom bananas. Not good in hindsight. Doesn’t really solve our problem at the 2 (though there’s a reasonable argument that sophomore Ochai > freshman Williamson) but definitely would make Wilson a non-factor. Oh well.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think he’d be nice to have but yeah I think the main concern right now is a capable secondary ball handler that can shoot. Does anyone even possibly fill that role but Kyree Walker? We need Walker badly.
I’d be ecstatic with Walker, taking a flier on that Bilau kid (seems to me like he is trying to recruit KU more than the other way around perhaps) and having an open scholarship.

He basically said he’s going to Oregon to play with his best friend Pritchard.

I did no more research than reading a tweet lol

@Kcmatt7 Sure, I figured as much which is why I wanted to mention it.

Bossi picked KU for Jalen Wilson today on rivals

I’m worried about Michigan like @jayballer73 now
-
@BShark what about walker? This is getting sooo old! Schedule out and still deciding

He will play AAU so we won’t hear anything until July. KU has a great shot if he reclasses. If he stays in 20 I think KU goes elsewhere.
-
@BShark brother!
-
Walker is reclassifying, it’s a matter of when he can get the work done. He could very well be a mid-year guy.
Edit: mid, not kid

Really hope it doesn’t go on that long.
-
@FarmerJayhawk - what is a “kid-year” guy?
-
He meant mid-year like Silvio
-
@Gorilla72 I’m so glad you asked that!
-
Ha! My bad. @BShark got it
-
@BShark , @FarmerJayhawk - thanks!

Cory Evans saying he feels Kyree will stay in the class of 2020
-
Carolina just blowin Jalen’s twitter ALL UP

I like Corey, I disagree though. KU wants him to pretty badly, and Hillcrest can make it happen if Walker works at it. Like I said awhile ago, don’t count out a mid year reclass. I’m not sure how interested KU would be in that situation unless they miss on Wilson and have a couple scholarships laying around.
-
Corey still thinks KU is landing Stanley, Precious and Hurt.
-
Not a big fan of the mid-year reclass. If you want to do it go all in and do it, don’t half-ass it. Kind of a metaphor on life, really.
-
Bilau has scheduled a visit to KU.
-
Whoaa - -was just doing my daily surfing and came across 247 sports - - See been activity with Kyree. - - The CB had been Arkansas at - 33% - Arizona - - 33% -& - -KU - -@ 33%
Now the CB shows KU at - -50 % - -Arkansas at - -25 % – &- -Arizona at - -25 % - -like the looks of that - -NOW we just got to get him to reclassify. - -It was Chris Fisher that put his pick in for KU. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Don’t have a date yet.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Oh? I don’t and will never pay Shay so I couldn’t actually read his article. Made it seem like a date was set though.
-

Idk what Shay said but I do know a date hasn’t been set yet. Also KU likes this kid a lot as a project.

Gotta wonder who is paying to keep the lights on over there heh.
I like him a lot too the more I see. I think you have him essentially take this year off while developing and he could very well be in the top 3 of the post rotation next year. He’s athletic and can shoot it a little bit, decent passer.
-
@BShark I like what I saw of him. - like you said seems athletic , can protect the rim some - seems to have some range although I wouldn’t want to have to count on him in the home stretch of a tight game from range lol - -would be nice to have a 3-4 yr player like himself . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@FarmerJayhawk you’re right, Shay is a hack. My bad.
-
Sooo Wilson had a good time in Chapel Hill (it’s hard not to tbh) but the hot rumor is it’s all KU

NO - -not a good time - -an AMAZING time lol

Hyland ended up at VCU. Have a feeling he’ll be good in a few years. Big pick up for them
