A friend of mine has a Nephew that plays for one of the Pac 12 schools , and we were talking and his Nephew was in need of something very minor but needed badly but didn’t have the means to buy it - - My Buddy said when he heard he thought well Hell I’ll send him the money so he can get this myself - - then like I told him when I heard and he said before I even had the chance to say - - NOPE can’t do that - -that would be impermissible benefits and would instantly make him ineligible and him become a booster.
Believe me we are taking tiny amount of money , just another example of these kids not being allowed to get any kind of support - -crazy rules - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
For me, @jayballer73’s post raised a question. Can these scholarship players accept money for their parents? I can’t imagine that a parent wouldn’t want to provide basic necessities. Are parents allowed to help and the line is drawn at extended family members, or not even the parents are allowed?

For their parents - no. From their parents - yes.

16 year olds have a tough time committing to what kind of toppings to get on their frozen yogurt let alone stick to a college commitment. Never think this stuff sticks.

@HighEliteMajor I also have a hard time committing to what type of topping I have on frozen yogurt.

It’s be hard to get me to commit to yogurt period. Lol
Seriously - Royce Woolrridge, Frankamp, Peters ? (Post that got concussed), Markese Jacobs, Tre White.

Read where KU has offered to Skyy Clark. - - A 6’2 combo guard from Heritage Christian Ca. Skyy is the # 18 ranked player in the class of 2022.
Holding offers so far from Memphis , Texas Tech , Vanderbilt , Depaul , Eastern Washington , Florida State , Fresno State , UCLA , Arizona , Arizona State , Auburn , KU , & Boston U.
Really likes Coach Self and how KU develops Guards , saying that we do a really good job of developing guards.
Schools he talked about wanting to possibly visit : - - Gonzaga , Kentucky , KU , Michigan , Depaul , Florida State , Arizona , & George Town

Recruiting west coast kids feels like a waste of time.

That’s his pinned tweet, still early but he does play for Adidas AAU.
We sure stand out on his offer sheet…
-
@BShark Bill and staff are having to work at it. They’ve been pretty darn good at identifying under the radar talent. Unfortunately that’s going to have to continue as the top recruits aren’t beating the doors down right now.

Agree. We were lucky with Bryce but the rest of the last two classes Self has had to fall back on his talent evaluation. The good news is, I think he is still pretty good at it. Braun has surprised early. I like what I see from Tristan if he can figure things out. I’m not too sure about Gethro and Jossell but they are end of the roster filler for now.
If offers are any indication 21 isn’t going to be any different. Outside of Tamar Bates (who I really like) I’m not sure who we have a good chance at. Would love Tchikou but there is no way that happens. I know Kendall Brown likes Kansas a lot but if it comes down to money

Read off zags blog yester I believe. -See where KU offered this kid on April 18th , talked about how his recruiting was heating up. with recent offers from KU & Marquette.
Tichyque Musaka , a 6’11 - 190 out of Valley Christian California ( I would says he needs to hit the old weight room for one - - get some bulk. ) Originally from Congo - -came to United States when he was 13. Was planning on playing in AAU with the West Coast elite - but not now because of COVID .
Self was down to see him play , he say KU said they are looking for a guy like him come in finish rim protector - - -rebound. -I tried looking for him off 247 but found nothing. At this point doesn’t list him as a top 100. - -project ?
other offers: Oregon , USC , G Town , DePaul , TCU and others it says. - -Anybody else heard anything on this guy ? - -must be some interest at least if we made offer. probably move up later
-
Another offer for 2022. Ramel Lloyd. A 6’6 wing from Taft Cal ,yet going to transfer to Dream City Christian - -I believe in Arizona.
When asked his thoughts on KU :Tradition - - -A Blue Blood & History of players that have went to pro’s. Said since he is a Soph , Coach can’t reach out direct but that Ku had been talking to him through the Coach’s and had offered through his Coach. - Arkansas has also recently offered.
Ranked as the # 57 player at this point. - Other schools to offer: Arizona St , Depaul , Fresno State , Manhattan , U Mass , St Johns , TCU , UNLV , & USC.
Looks like Coach is shifting some on his recruiting. - -Is he backing off more of the higher level player ? Could be with this NBA thing it could be he is looking more at that 3-4 year developmental player instead of a kid that is here maybe for ONE year. - Just have seen the recruits he has been in on lately. - -OR is it because he is just not getting the interest of the higher elite player because of possibly sanctions with the NCAA , and just not having success with that an is relegated to these type players. Sometimes these type of kids have a really high ceiling, I trust him. ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

FWIW: I live in the south bay and have heard nothing about Musaka. Now I don’t watch prep that closely, so there could be a great talent in my backyard… but Aaron Gordon was impossible to miss when he was rising through high school. Haley Jones last year-- also impossible to miss.
By comparison, I first heard of Musaka here, on this board, despite the distinguishing features and close proximity.

Boy Coach & Staff been busy this week , mainly since Wednsday . - Offered 2 forwards:
Sadraque Nganga , a 6’ 10 G/F from Arizona Campus # # PF & # 15 overall in the Class of 2022. Other offers are : Alabama , Arizona , Arizona State , Auburn , Maryland , Oklahoma , & TCU plus others. Another offer a 6’9 PF out of Winfield School California # 2 PF & # 10 overall also plays with Compton Magic AAU
Other offers are : Arizona , California , Stanford , UCLA , UNLV , & Vanderbilt plus others. - - Boy this kid look like a specimen very solid upper body at 1st glance from what I can tell, looks pretty sweet - -would love to land him - either offer for the forwards would be sweet. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

KU not involved yet to my knowledge. Elite athlete, rough around the edges in terms of basketball.
-
KU offered Rylan Griffen a few days ago. He is very good at basketball and KU appears to be firmly in the race.
-
Yep that’s a good one to be in on.
-
Well today is the 1st day that KU & other Colleges could have direct contact with 2022 recruits and KU was really busy.
I guess the big surprise to the recruit and to others was Ku has offered a Lawrence local a Scholi they were thrilled and & surprised.- - saying they really got to buckle up and stay after it now.
JuJu Ramirez , that is out of Bishop Seabury a 6’9 kid that can play inside and the perimeter, on his 1st day has offers from Denver , Bryant , Rhode Island , Minnesota & Ku. makes me think if KU is offering they see something in the kid, usually pretty good at evaluating talent . - so I’m good. he is going to move and play for New Hampton Prep this Season.
Reached out to many others , guys to keep an eye on : Jayden Bradley a 6’3 pg # 9 from IMG Academy
Keyonte George a 6’5 pg # 12 from Lewisville Texas
Mark Mitchell a 6’7 F # 19 from Bishop Meige
Lee Dort a 6’10 C # 13 from Addison Texas
Sky Clark a 6"4 pg # 23 from Dallas Texas
A J Casey a 6’8 F # 24 from Chicago
Rylan Griffin a 6’5 SG # 76 from Richardson Texas
Grady Dick a 6’6 G # 334 from Sunrise Academy Kansas
Nick Smith a 6’4 pg out of Sherwood Arkansas
Rody Gayle a 6’4 SG out of Niagra Falla NY
The staff is out aggressive. Check out the 247 line and most of these recruits list us in their top 5 schools at the present time to get busy - -time to keep an eye see how these things play out. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I was surprised they offered Juju. But sounds like he’s a lock if they’ll take his commitment.

Sounds like staff must think he has that potential, we must be interested for sure if we offered - -which we did I think it was Howard who told him they like what they saw, your right I think KU is a lock - of course things can change as you know - -2022 is a ways a way yet a lot can change between now and then > I’m sure with KU offering there will be MORE schools starting to check him out at least a little.

you happen to see the picture he has hanging on the Wall behind him ? - -ya , if KU seriously wants him I find if hard to believe he goes elsewhere
