Details on that deleted tweet coming tonight.
-
It’s going to be part of a documentary. Rod Thompson actually talked to this guy and asked him to delete it. The YouTube video was supposed to be private for the time being.

I’m missing something. What’s the story?
-
A video leaked that wasn’t supposed to.

Good or bad?

@Marco Good. Showed Bill getting emotional to have Bryce coming down. Doesn’t seem like someone packing their bags and heading to the nba.
-
Things to be excited about with this guy on offense next season.
Step back 3 pointer is a signature move of his. Quick release.
Midrange game- Lost art but can be useful and effective when needed.
Ball-handler with size and gets in the paint. Will finish above the rim in transition, on cuts to the basket or around the rim in general.
Cannot leave him wide open, deadly.

Can’t wait! Good kid too!

Yep, should be fun to see him and I expect he’ll fit right in chemistry wise.

Love those traits , can’t wait. Yet I’m not ready for this season to be over yet ya know ? - I’m ready for a solid shooter though for sure could sure use him now I’ve seen some game hi-lites and what’s not to like ?
Big question which I truly don’t know - -haven’t really hear a lot about because most the time it’s all about offense , my question is how is he defensively ? – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Haven’t heard any major complaints about him on defense.
Next year’s lineup could be long on the perimeter- Garrett 6’5, Thompson 6’5, Agbaji 6’5, Braun 6’6, Enaruna 6’8, Wilson 6’8, Grant-Foster 6’7. Obviously a few of those guys could be interchangeable in a 4 guard look.

🥶️🥰🥳 Can’t wait! Good kid too!We are lucky to have him. Good timing in regards to his class as he was our only shot at a stud player with the ncaa looming. Want to find out this offseason either way.

love the look of multiple possibilities. - - flexible – -versatile - -long - - inter changeable. - -

Just seems like a whole mix of players and the shooting ability anywhere on the court is going to be fun to watch. You can tell he has modeled his game after some current NBA guys with the step back and the cross over jab step for a jumper. Just a few I’ve noticed in a lot of recent videos
-
Ah, but will he be “ready” in Self’s eyes?
-
If he’s not someone like Braun can start to push him.
-
Hes an McDonalds All American. Congrats Bryce wooo

@BShark man we need a shooter like that

Hopefully we get 2 seasons of him. If he stayed 4 yrs he would go down as one of the best shooters we have had. He is that good of a scorer

Lack of elite athleticism is massive here. If he was even Marc G athletically he would be a oad lock.

Perfect College Player. I think our Strength coach will help him with a few things once he gets here. Self raves about his BBall IQ which is the perfect guy to match with Garrett.

Bryce was a major snub for the Jordan Brand game. Shocked (except not)

@FarmerJayhawk lol

They don’t even try to hide their bias against kids who sign sign with Adidas schools
-
@BeddieKU23 it’s in the fine print. “Entry forbidden if you pick an Adidas school.”

True. 3 seasons from him would be great! Not a bigtime athlete, but shooters such as JJ Reddick have carved out nice careers for themselves.

Pretty pathetic, actually. If the NCAA doesn’t sniff a problem here they are even dumber and more corrupt than what I had previously thought.

Brings a serious microscope to the whole charade.
-
Seems like a lot of caution is being put out there in regards to Thompson right now. Should be good eventually though.
-
Adapting to the more physical college game was always a question with Bryce. Shoot, we could easily see Braun over Bryce for awhile in the non-con.
