2021 Recruiting
-
@jayballer67 Yes, my entire post was sarcasm. I’m as passionate about KU basketball as anyone and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed when we miss out on certain guys. At the end of the day I have total faith in Self that he knows what kind of team he wants to put together and has proven time and time again he will get it done. Does it always work? No, but you don’t consistently win like he does without knowing what you’re doing. TRUST IN BILL

Is this official now? Because retractions were issued and this whole thing is batshit crazy. No wonder we dipped out.
-
No its not but doesn’t mean they didn’t keep the gift baggy. Btw I feel really bad for Efton in this situation. Doesn’t even look like he’s getting to pick his own school

shadiest recruitment in some time
Duke’s old bag man losing to the new Bag man in town.
-
I felt like Bill Self and KU has double-birded the NCAA.
Will Wade has whipped his pecker out and T-Bagged Mark Emmert at this point. KU needs to get back in the game.
-
@Kcmatt7 Will Wade isn’t teabagging Emmert anymore. He’s got Emmert bent over a table a table and locking eyes with him while doing it at this point.

Da Brothahood lost out on Top 5 prospect Patrick Baldwin who decided to play for his dad at Milwaukee. Can’t make this stuff up. I’m so mad about this I’ll jump for joy

Most kids would want to play for their dad
-
We made Nolan Hickman’s top 3, along with Auburn and where he’s going (Gonzaga). returns to finals bunker
-
Talk about trolling a program for an entire recruiting cycle. I can’t stand this class
-
It is official Nolan Hickman to Gonzaga
-
Nolan entered the i don’t ever wanna hear your name again bank

You got it. Anyone care to take bets? Gonzaga is paying bigtime. And they don’t have to worry, because image, name and likeness - and no legislating body including that of Kansas’ can for long stop it - will soon be nationwide. It is quite obvious that the NCAA (headquartered in KC) concentrates mostly on the midwest - and yes, I stand by that statement. Arizona would’ve gotten off too, but they made it too easy.
-
And JUST like the Lil Red Engine did , KU will follow The Lil Red Engine’s motto/theme - -KU will just keep up and keep saying - - - -I think we can - - - I think we can , and we will just keep chugging along and some how - - some way Coach will continue to put THAT competitive team on the floor. - -Right on through all the BS. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Marco NIL isn’t something that’s going to help a school like Gonzaga because it’s nowhere close to a major city (Spokane is about double the size of Lawrence) so the marketing opportunities won’t be there as they would be at a place like KU which also has a huge presence in KC. A place like KU isn’t even going to see the full benefits of the NIL ruling unless the NCAA puts a cap on how much a player can earn in endorsements. Schools in or near places like Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and other marketing capitals are the schools most likely to see an uptick from NIL situations.
The Supreme Court isn’t too far away from making a ruling in the Alston v. NCAA case which will put the NIL situation under federal law. The Kansas state legislature was absolutely right for vetoing the NIL bill within the state because it was bundled with the transgender kids in sports bill. Those two issues had no reason to be bundled together and needed to be legislated upon separately.
Also, the NCAA hasn’t been headquartered in KC in over 20 years.
-
Believe Hickman wanted to play closer to home and given the year Gonzaga had this year I don’t blame any kid that wants to join that culture. They are ‘the’ school right now.

At some point Self is going to have to get assistant coaches that can recruit in this new era…

It’s not all of the problem right now but losing Snacks did hurt.
-
How bout Jacque Vaughn?
-
True but it seems to be the only solution without resolution to the bigger issue.
-
@Marco can he recruit? That’s all I care about lol.
-
We should just give the spot to Remy Martin’s dad.

Me too. Recruit Cali.

Sydney Curry gone. I fully expected this
-
-
Making room for Ochai
-
@BeddieKU23 for sure?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 We had 14 scholarship players before Curry left now we have 13. Reading Och’s recent comments, sounds like he wants to be back.
-
-
Remy and JCL are signed, just announced officially.
-
This quote from Bill was a spittake, “Not since Brady Morningstar have I coached a young man that is 24-years-old and will graduate at 25, but I think that maturity and experience will bode well with so many newcomers next season.”

Ya I kind of figured with all the wild happenings with commits - -someone was not sticking. - -So we have this possible Scenario , if he is making comments he wants to come back , then Martinquite possibly stays in the draft and Ochai comes back. - -I’ve always give Martin probably 50/50 at best actually showing up on Campus, The better scenario then I guess would be Wilson stay in and Martin both coming back that would be Sweet. - Would hate to lose Jalen but of the two scenarios that would be by far the better one
-
Jalen and Ochai are coming back.

Martin has already been added to the roster

@jayballer67 I don’t think so? I think we are even now.

Doesn’t mean squat. Like has been said he could very easily just be using this as a back up plan. - -just because he is added on the roster isn’t worth the paper that it’s printed on. If he wants to stay in the draft just because he is on the roster doesn’t mean squat

Yesterday Jalen was on Snapchat. He was wearing KU shorts. He also looks like he’s hitting the weight room.

Well reading off TOS that Petiford has 3 torn ligaments - - I guess in his ankle. Anyone else hear this it was coming of Tiptons - if that’s the case he now becomes a medical redshirt no doubt.

Yeah Jalen has never been in doubt. Ochai is a fairly recent development however.
