Bossi reporting KU might be in a good spot for TyTy Washington. Would be interesting…

I kind of hope the Tyty stuff is all BS. Otherwise I don’t want anything to do with him.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Recruiting:
Jonas Aidoo is back on the market. Certainly fits the length/athleticism build. Definitely also a project.
Wasn’t we in on him before ? - -seems like I thought we were wanted him - -I think we could see some big time moves yet for 21 - maybe as many as 4 - -replace with 4 different roster

Watch out for this. Kim English was just hired at George Mason, the Tennessee Assistant and former Methzu nutjob.
Why does this matter? He was responsible for bringing Kennedy Chandler to Tenn. PLEASE MOTHER OF EVERYTHING open up your recruitment…

Really great of Mason for advancing opportunities for women coaches

You know who has length and is athletic? Mady Traore. Name to keep an eye on. Illinois or KU.
-
Good grief is he long, 7’3 wingspan, 9’5 standing reach, 12’8 jumping reach, 39 inch vert.

See , that’s what I like about you - -always tossing out new names for me to worked up in a tizzy about love it - -get my hopes up. - -This kid be a freshman ? - -well keep us updated if you hear anything buddy
-
Just got this feeling, were going to have A LOT of new faces for next years roster. - - I think chances are pretty decent we lose Grant Foster , Tristan , Jossell , & Muscadin.
With what we have coming in on top of the fact good possibility of adding Walker t - -then we have KJ , Clemence , & Curry coming in
Our Roster actually would look pretty Salty. - Sr Lightfoot - - Jr Agbaji - - McCormack - - Curry - - -Soph Braun - - Fr Adams - Clemence - - Harris - - & Wilson & Walker I’d take that hopefully find some really good rim protector be good to go

Staff is having a Zoom with Bobby Pettiford this week. He seems kinda redundant to Harris but hey, Bill has a type

Yeah, I don’t think they end up with him but it doesn’t hurt to throw your hat in the ring with a bunch of guys.

Update: call is tomorrow. Should be an offer out. Also, a friend of a friend here in NC LOVES him. Wants UNC on him like flies on cow turds. Apparently played 1-4 on his AAU team because he’s built like a tree trunk and can guard about anyone.

Okay this will tempt tf out of Bill.
-
If Bill pulls off a miracle and gets 2/3 of Walker, Washington and Pettiford KU is a top 3 team. Adding McKissic to that as well would be a nice touch. Just get as many guys as you can tbh.
-
TyTy is sooooo good. I’m getting worked up watching highlights.

Looking like we might be back in the saddle. Bill is hangry.
-
I’m sure it’s been mentioned but tyty played on the same Pangos AA team as KJ did.

I think we need to add another quality big in that bunch also

According to rivals he’s in the class of ‘22. Plus he’s only 195lbs. I don’t know anything about him like you do but how does he differ from Gethro?

Definitely another project, but looks better than Gethro to me.
-
Not trying to rag on current players but I’d be very surprised if Gethro ever played meaningful minutes in a KU uniform. I see him as a definite candidate to transfer this year.
-
Of all the players that could possibly leave I was thinking Gethro would stick around just because of the potential down the road but he did go to multiple High Schools and its a free year so there’s never going to be an easier time to find another spot then now. Same for Jossell, Enaruna, TGF

No surprise here. Hunter Sallis to Gonzaga
-
We should be Nike…

Noooooo, you don’t say - - - just stunning - - -stunning I say. - Well it’s ok , so many transfers I really do think with so many that Coach will be able to find some pretty quality guys that will hep the guys right ?
-
Looks like the ideal circumstances is 1 FR, 1 transfer at this point, until roster movements happen and we know for sure who’s back
-

Still think we could use a quality 5 somewhere /somehow
-
So much for Gonzaga ever going back to mid-major status. It’s amazing what Few has done there, really. Wonder if Moser can do the same at Loyola Chicago?

Tamar Bates asking out of his LOI from Texas…

Look for Kansas to go after him
-
@BShark 2031. We can form a KU Buckets Boosters group and steer the decision.
I can contribute $100 of seed money.
-
@BeddieKU23 I really was not impressed with his tape. He will get recruited over if he comes here.

Don’t see him moving the needle for next year that’s for sure.
I REALLY want TyTy. He is an absolute dog and offers something we don’t really have on the roster…
-
Funny his ranking went up a bunch this yr. Tape is so so. He is a big guard that can create and shoot and defends. Not a really fast twitch athlete
-
I feel like, other than a stud point guard maybe, most of the players we pick up aren’t going to be better than the players currently on the roster. I wouldn’t be opposed to giving Dajuan Harris a lot of minutes next season.
-
Can find always find better players. This was literally the worst offensive team Self has ever had and it wasn’t close. Not expecting bad shooters to magically get better. I think Self is doing the right thing, find 2 to 3 guys that can shoot and fill needs and hope the additions make a difference in how guys play

Bill is out hunting for better players, that’s for sure.

Bates would be far below TyTy and Pettiford if it were up to me.
-
Bossi just said KU isn’t interested.
-
Agree those 2 guys are considerably better then bates at this stage. Athletic ability is on another planet for them too
-
I mean players do get better. Frank Mason was a 32.7% 3-point shooter and 66.7% FT shooter as a freshman and a 47.1% 3-point shooter and 79.4% FT shooter as a senior. Players develop and get better. Dajuan Harris looks like he could be really good, so does Jalen Wilson. Maybe Clemence or Adams show potential next season. Maybe Bryce will improve with a full and normal offseason and a hopefully healthy sophomore season. Instead of trying to look for a quick fix and get a 1-year rental who probably won’t be much better than a player currently on our roster, maybe we should recruit freshman and give them time to develop and play with each other.

Who? Who’s the transfer that’s going to magically transform our team next season?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Idk. I think this year is the exception considering the types of guys leaving programs this year. And the reality is if you aren’t getting a transfer who can play big minutes for you this day and age then you are doing a poor job recruiting.
Literally every single elite 8 team has a transfer playing big minutes for them. Several of the teams have like 2 or 3 playing big minutes.
The transfer market is a lot deeper and more talented than it was even 5 years ago.

We are definitely hoping for improvement out of Bryce. I would bet money on 4, possibly 5 new faces.

A highschool recruit that moves the needle for next year…

The fact of the matter is KU needs an infusion of talent, proven scorers and athleticism.
Names to watch: TyTy Washington, Brandon McKissic, Stanley Umude, Christian Bishop, Bobby Pettiford (believe he is the plan B for TyTy and that the staff really wants a HS point guard).
