New 2019 Recruiting

KirkIsMyHinrich said:
I want Agbaji to start. I’m worried about Bill promising starting spots to recruits. I haven’t seen Jalen play a game in college basketball yet. Maybe he is better.
Don’t think that’s an issue here. Guessing the pitch was more “you can come in, compete and likely get minutes”. Wilson, no offense, isn’t in the perceived must start range to need a promise.
Like everyone else I think Ochai starts. Ochai is a Bill Self type player.
-
Well saw we just got bumped again we are now at 61% in the CB for Jalen - -up from 56 % earlier today - another pick -really rolling now
-
Ochai is a much more athletic player than Jalen with +1 year of experience. The only way Jalen starts is if he shoots the lights out and Ochai can’t hit his shot. It’s possible, but i don’t think we will see it.

A rumor out there that Wilson is going to sign with the Harlem Globetrotters for two years, then go into the draft. Looks like this one is going south.

Goodness … I just heard Wilson has a “surprise” in store. Not good.

Okay this post could be construed as serious unlike the other one.

Where did you hear that?

@HighEliteMajor New Zealand or Australia?
-
Why do these things always go the wrong way? Really worried about PT I guess.
-
Ya his big surprise is that he just signed for his 1st car. - - Not one word off his twitter about having any surprise - not one wiff about anything

Something on snapchat I guess … never snapchatted. But I won’t sleep well tonight. Wonder if the announcement will get pushed back? Crap. And who is coach Pinkins at Florida? Didn’t know they were in this.

Sleep well my man.

I think we’ll be okay without him if that’s what happens. I like the current roster a lot.

Agree. I think he’s coming but he’s pretty much Brannen Greene (but not crazy).

A lot more skilled but a way worse shooter than Brannen.
-
On rivals Corey Evans picked KU yesterday. If he’s on his streak still that means it’s anything but KU.
And Russ wood picked KU today also.
Any word on what Slater is picking?

True that Brannen really was a great shooter. Idk about way worse though. The lack of lateral quickness was the main point of comparison for me.
@rockchalkwyo No need for Slater to weigh in on this one.

Ok great. I’m nervous and getting antsy I suppose. Thanks @BShark and @FarmerJayhawk.

Farmer is right though of course, Slater’s pick is KU.
-
I don’t really know even what supposedly was said - -whatever it is - - I’m not buying - -I think he is KU

New potential target. High ceiling dude. Wasn’t really recruited because everyone thought he was going JuCo (because he was). https://247sports.com/Player/Lk-Wur-46081610/

Better than Bilau?

Honestly don’t know. I like Bilau just because he fills a position of need moving forward but Wür has a really high ceiling too.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think either one would tbh. Getting a post player in the program to take a developmental year would be a great use of the last scholarship. If it works out that’s less work you have to do in 2020, if not you just move on. Low risk, high reward. Whereas if the last scholarship stays open then we are looking at needing at least one starting level big.

@BShark I concur. Good strategy to take a flier on a guy with #13. Assuming Wilson we won’t need that spot anyhow.
-
For people without VIP, it sounds like Wur just found out he will in fact be eligible.

A lot to work with there. That FT% is really intriguing as far as perimeter shooting potential.

How seriously do you think we are looking at a 13th fill for 2019? - I’m being serious here , cause I honestly don’t know. - with the kid like you posted , do you think we are considering him - -do you think he would be worth taking our last Scholli? - -I’m not trying to be a smart ass - really I honestly am curious - do you think he is worth the last one or not/ - would he be worth it? -or should we pocket it? - honestly after Wilson I figured that wrapped up our 19 recruiting - hadn’t really heard much more on Josaphat - do you know , have you heard if he ever sit a date to visit? - - Thanks Bud - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 i think Self is serious about filling it. I kind of think he likes taking these kinds of guys on and seeing what he can do to develop them. Self wants the last visit with Bilau. If his grades are all good I think we offer.
-
@jayballer73 He was pulling your leg…lol. we got him…

Here’s a page with a bunch of video of today’s scrimmage. check out Dok hitting a 17 footer!

So your thinking is - -we would reach out to him before this other guy? - - I kind of like Bilau got a little range - some rim protection - hop a little. - maybe take that chance? - Again though I know there was talk about him making a visit - I just hadn’t heard any specific date - do you know ? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

The staff is in contact with both. I’d guess Bilau visits first, but neither has been offered. Neither will until the staff sees them. Self wants Bilau to visit KU last, so they’ll figure out a date once Bilau is done taking visits to states not named Kansas. I don’t know anything about a potential visit from Wür. He wasn’t even cleared for NCAA competition until this week.

Highlights from the scrimmage:
-
To me, Ochai looks like a monster in the video. Stronger, faster, playing with a killer mentality. Break out ahead…
-
Ochai will be, IMO, the most improved player from last year.
