2020 Transfer List

I still think immediate transfer will shake something from the current roster. If your Wilson how are you cracking the top 10 in the rotation? Just thoughts

Realistically, Wilson probably isn’t in the rotation next season as he’s probably 4th in that mix, maybe 5th depending on how Self uses Enaruna next season.
2012-22 is when Jalen and Tristan start emerging into more featured roles after Silvio and Mitch are gone. Dave should still be around then so you could conceivably see a senior Dave and a sophomore Jalen as the starting front court in 2012-22 for KU and Jalen sliding over to the 5 with Tristan at the 4 in a small ball line up.
I’m not forgetting about Gethro, I just don’t think he’ll be ready for a bigger role until after Dave is gone. I think it’s pretty likely he redshirts this season (assuming it happens) because he should be buried pretty deep on the depth chart and he needs to add size to his frame anyway. He’s got that Jeff Withey body type of naturally being skinny and it took Jeff about 3 years to get to where he wasn’t getting bullied on the floor every night. Gethro has a similar body type where it’ll be hard to put on a lot of mass and a redshirt year where he focuses on his body mostly would be a huge benefit for him long term.
The question for Jalen there would be is he patient enough to wait his turn. If he transfers, he’s not playing wherever he ends up next season versus sitting behind Dave, Mitch, and Silvio next year as the potential 4th big and still getting a few minutes just about every night. The biggest thing Jalen needs to develop in his game a solid 3 point shot. He needs to get north of 35% to be able to play the 4 spot at KU because he’s already going to be a defensive liability for KU at that spot since his athleticism is in the same neighborhood as Perry Ellis and Dedric Lawson.

I get your point. Different times today. I absolutely want Wilson here as I was a big fan of his in HS. Its just difficult to see where he plays a lot and subsequently doesnt get discouraged from it

Jalen Wilson committed to Kansas knowing full well KU still had Some, Silvio, McCormack, and Lightfoot coming back last season with a strong chance David and Silvio would still be around with a solid chance of Mitch being around next season. I’m also sure the coaching staff was very upfront with Wilson during his recruitment that there was a good possibility he wouldn’t see many meaningful minutes his first couple of seasons in Lawrence.
Jalen Wilson was a borderline top 50 recruit in a really weak class. He committed to KU knowing full well there was a possibility he wasn’t going to play a whole lot his first two years.
The only player currently committed to KU that I can see not playing in Lawrence next season is Latrell Jossell and that’s only if Self recruits over him before the summer.

I wouldn’t hate it but it doesn’t appear that Self is going in that direction. He had a lot of chances to go after transfers and has stayed the course. I don’t exactly mind it either. I am not super confident Gethro or Jossell are KU level guys but that will work itself out in time.
RE Wilson his family right now is saying all the right things. If he did officially take a RS that’s a good sign too imo. I think he will be good in his 4th and 5th years in college especially if those do in fact happen.

Big movement on the trail today
Grad transfer Charles Minlend from San Francisco ends up at Louisville. Watched him play against Gonzaga in the WCC tourney and he is a baller.
Jamarious Burton transferred from Wichita to Texas Tech.
UNLV transfer Amari Hardy ends up at Oregon. Kid was instrumental when they beat San Diego St.
Oklahoma picked up North Texas Texas transfer Umoja Gibson
-
OU lost Jamal Bieniemy. Had a really subpar soph season
-
Justin Turner went back to BGSU. Awk.

@BeddieKU23 Oregon taking Hardy is a long con.

Our old friend Chaundee Brown is transferring
-
Chaundee really underachieved under Danny
-
For sure. I wouldn’t hate taking a flier if we had a spot. A RS year then a 5th year Chaundee might be a nice player.

VCU big man and leading scorer Marcus Santos Silva is transferring. Should be a hot commodity. The 6’7 bruiser averaged 12.8 ppg and 8 boards a game. Good player hitting the market
-
Oh Bruce lost another to the portal. Levi Stockard is leaving. Bruce down to 4 guys who even played last season.

@BeddieKU23 such a weirdo

@jayballer73 I know plenty of KSU fans that are simply hoping not to finish dead last again.

they better hope really hard. They were saying today that Mike McGurl is the ONLY one left off the team that won the Big 12 two years ago?

They can hang a consecutive last place Banner. Would be fitting

Weber is an okay enough coach. He’s not great, but not awful.
His problem is that he struggles in recruiting and retention. That has burned him time and again. He saved himself last time with Dean Wade and Barry Brown, but unless he does something similar this time, it will be tough to get out of the basement with the upgrades around the Big 12.

His player evaluation is okay but it’s hard to replicate Dean Wade (underrated rural KS player that grew up a huge grape) and Barry Brown (sub 200 recruit that ended up playing at an all league level).
We like to bring up Graham and Mason but both were much more of known commodities than Brown. Anyone paying attention knew Graham was a baller and we had to beat out NC State and Virginia for him. Barry Brown didn’t have another P5 offer.
It’s a shame we were robbed of Wade’s final season. He was really good.

Tyler Harris of Memphis transfers to Iowa St. Believe they were runner ups for him first time around.

Wow he’s impressive. Heck of an athlete at 6’3 and defender. Shoots similar to Marcus…Would trade for Jossell anyday

sam on the athletic thinks he’s a draft prospect.

WANT. Even if he has to sit we need to replace Marcus in 21-22. You’d like to have a non-Harris option, or you could start all 3 of Harris, F-L, and Bryce. Or play Bryce at point and start Braun at the 3.

Damn, Texas Tech landed VCU leading scorer Marcus Santos-Silva. That’s a game changer for them…

Gonna laugh when Texas finishes in the middle of the league again.
-
@BeddieKU23 I saw that. Beard is smart, knows that he can coach, going the transfer route until - and it is only a matter of time - he can consistently recruit with the big boys. As long as Beard is around Tech is going to be our most heated Big12 rival.
-
His 2020 class of HS recruits is arguably his best. 1 five star and 2 4 star recruits. All to a place in Texas that’s in the middle of no where. I think he’s recruiting at a high level

I don’t think Self is going to completely rule out Braun being the successor to Garrett at PG. Braun ran some point last season and will probably be Garrett’s primary back up this season.

Braun has a long way to go to run the point. He looked scared to handle under pressure at times.
-
Part of that was he wasn’t practicing to be the backup PG. Threw him into it out of necessity when injuries occured

Yikes. Attrition at Wake Forest already commencing. A few weeks back they were over scholarships then Chaundee Brown left. Now with Manning gone they have 9 bodies right now after their best player Oliver Sarr- 7 footer who averaged 13 & 9 last season has decided to transfer. According to him Manning convinced him to come back for his Sr year without testing the NBA draft and now his coach is fired and he’s missed the deadline for entering the Draft…
In Sarr’s words
I wanted to test the [NBA draft] waters," Sarr told ESPN on Thursday night. “I requested the UAC [Undergraduate Advisory Committee]. I tried to test the waters, then I had a conversation with Coach and he convinced me to stay and get my degree. He had plans for me, I was going to do great things in the ACC, with the team and individually, of course. It was late April, Coach was going to stay. Then, 24-48 hours before the [draft] deadline, Coach got fired. I didn’t get the chance to put my name in and change my mind.”
“It’s actually a tough decision,” Sarr said. “I want to give Wake Forest a chance and listen to what he has to say. I’m entering the transfer portal because I want to listen to all the options. I want to be able to pick my own coach, not have one chosen for me.”

Boy that’s kind of messed up for the kid. - - just a typical case for the kid. Kind of falls in line with when a kid is being recruited to come to a school as a Freshman he commits cause he wants to play for that Coach and then - - he get’s fired after the kid has committed or the Coach leaves and the kid is like - - -Wait ? - - -What?

I’m with you, which is why I like the new and softened transfer rules. Coaches can bolt without notice (though still on contract), and the players are like, “…what?” If a player is unhappy at a school, I say bon voyage.
Case in point, Grimes. I didn’t like him at KU, and was glad that he left. For a multitude of reasons he did not fit in. It worked out well for everyone concerned that he chose to transfer.
