2019 Transfer List

This one moved fast.
He’s a good 3 point shooter so that spot up role is something I think he could fill. His PER is alarming (14) which shows up in his low FG % and average at best stat line.
Post Tucker you have to take a guy like this. He can shoot which we need desperately and he has 102 games experience in a Big-10 program. You’d think if he stayed at Iowa he was a double digit scorer his final year. If he can even give us 5-6 ppg its worth it. This is an instant plug and play guy in some way
I hadn’t really paid or heard much of the kid - -BUT after he entered the transfer - had over 50 schools reach out. - - Said he couldn’t accept anything from any other Big 10 school out of respect for Iowa - -and same went for Iowa St
-
He was a 3 year starter at Iowa. From what I saw of him this past year he was pretty good. Nothing spectacular from this guy but he’s good enough to play. He’s a solid player that can shoot and provide some toughness/leadership as a Senior with almost 100 starts under his belt. He doesn’t turn the ball over a ton for a guard but he doesn’t contribute a ton either (average rbs, assists numbers).
This could be a glue guy that ends up being important for a team like this in rebuild mode. We’ve missed on several better options but maybe this guy will fit Self’s system better and compliment a guy like Garrett.

@BeddieKU23 You take him and Garrett and roll them together, and you’d have an All American…

DO WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY?

@BShark I dunno… but I heard the Transformers might be able to help.
-
BTW, that Jalen Wilson would be a God send.

Yupp he’s got a point forward to his game. Not a true 4 man but he just kept growing to 6’8/6’9. Legitimate guard skills at his size and shooting ability. He was one I really wanted last spring and Belein shut his recruitment down. If he’s looking to be closer to home now KU is a great fit
-
I have two friends that are Iowa fans. Asked them about Moss and their two responses were:
“Let’s just say I’m not sad that he’s moving on.”
and
“If he’s KU’s best option as an add then they’re in trouble.”
Neither of my buddies are the bitter-type either. Not exactly a ringing endorsement if that’s all KU can add at this point grad transfer-wise.

The gist I got is that he is similar to Vick and Selden. If his first couple shots go down watch out but he is extremely inconsistent. Also a laid back kind of guy that clashed with their coach a bit, not sure he is a fit with Self if true.
I think he’s fine as a bench piece but not a starter.
If the fail case is starting Dotson, Garrett and Agbaji it’s not the end of the world but adding RJ would solve a lot of issues…
-
Moss could be a nice addition. He’s not the player that Tucker is, but he gives the guard rotation some more depth.
The downside is that he gives us depth - he’s not a guy that can carry the load. He’s a nice piece if you already have guys to carry the load in place. That was one of Iowa’s problems with him. He was a good player, but not so good that he could make up for the shortcomings on the rest of the roster.
This current KU roster is still a good, but flawed roster. Moss would be a good addition, but he isn’t going to cover up any of the flaws already existing with the roster.

Thanks for posting.
It sounds as if he underachieved a bit to expectation after a good Soph year.
KU’s best options went elsewhere. Now in Plan XYZ mode just trying to get bodies to have
-
@BShark i noticed after he scored 19 points in 96 seconds, the next game he went 0 for 7 in 23 minutes, and then was given 14 minutes the next game after that. Not sure if he is just inconsistent, or Iowa has a quick hook. he scored 20 against the Clones, and scored 16 against Tenn. he’s a riddle…
-
Bill Self patented the quick hook. The Grimes situation seems baffling on first glance but recruiting optics is my guess.
-
KJ Lawson to Tulane.
-
@BShark And good luck to him.

Jermarl Baker ended up at Arizona.
Can’t make this stuff up

CHRIS CLARKE FROM VIRGINIA TECH HAS TRANSFER TO TEXAS TECH
-
Moss to Arkansas. Sup Kyree
-
@FarmerJayhawk Did KU actually offer Moss?

What a boss move there. Come on down Walker

Not that I know of.
Sure seems that they didn’t but I wasn’t fully sure. Definitely wasn’t anything reported.
-
Oh hey, per Bedore KU did NOT offer. Seems big.
-
BShark said:

Good catch! Yeah, it sure seems like the staff thinks they’ll get at least one more wing that’s better than Moss.
-
And you guys think that’s Walker?
-
They still like their chances with Precious. But I think Walker is more likely.
-
Would definitely rather have Walker.
-
Or Jalen or Barnes or Cunningham.

We will end up only getting the one guy we don’t want this class lol

STILL got to get Kyree to re-classify yet right? - - - Kid is a beast - -they say like no position layer can play so many - yep i’ll take me some please

Transfer List hitting 850.
Tech out there signing starters. As reported earlier in this thread Virginia Tech transfer Chris Clarke goes to Chris Beard. Sat out last yr after being suspended but averaged 8ppg 6 boards and 3 assists in 2017-2018. Tech has 9 newcomers for next season
-
I think Tech will again be a top 15 team. I saw someone said they would be a top 10 team with the additions of Holyfield and Clark. Beard is a transfer magician!

They should be solid. The addition of Clarke is huge for them. TTheir ceiling depends on the developments of borderline 5 star prospect Jahmius Ramsey and the Juco Top 3 forward they signed Khalid Thomas.
-
You guys see what you are doing there, right? Talking about how tech is going to only have two grad transfers and a developmental four* and juco yet should still be a top 15, top 10 program next season. Maybe, I don’t know… I sense a lovefest for Coach Beard.

The proof is in the pudding isn’t it? He took Tech to the Elite 8 and Finals in the last two years. It’s not a lovefest as much as giving the coach respect for what he’s done recently. I expect he takes those transfers and new players and molds his team into a Top 25 program and thorn in KU’s side in the Big-12. We shouldn’t expect anything less after the last two years

Exactly. I think the last two years Beard has proven he knows how to take a couple grad transfers and plug them into his current roster and make it work. Not a love fest at all just showing and giving respect to a great coach who is only going to get better.
Part of my point was if you had looked at the very early preseason Top 25’s ( I agree they are silly, but fun) Tech was ranked around 20-25 or not even ranked. Now with these two pickups they will be a top 15 team.
-
He’s going full on Mark Few but in a Power Conference. It’s impressive as hell.

Been a little chatter about Beard to Michigan? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 One step away from the Big 12, and one step back…

I give him his props, too. I don’t see him being a thorn, though, not this next season for sure.

@BeddieKU23 Whatever you do, don’t watch the Youtube video of Ramsey taking on Jalen. Ugh…

I would assume it’s not flattering to Jalen? Ramsey is a pure guard, makes sense he could eat his lunch.

I have seen it before. Rewatched. Ramsey is a stud. KU never really put any effort in him. He’ll make us pay
Wilson can really shoot it which is what we need of him
-
@BShark Ramsey is just a beast.
-
There was talk of making him a 5 star prospect this spring
-
@BeddieKU23 I believe it. Marcus will get lots of minutes guarding him.
