RE: Lets go 3-0 on the new season
@Woodrow You just have to understand it happens everywhere, but people don’t want to hear that. Look how good U Conn has been in the last what ?- - --I will give them the benefit of the doubt- -like ten years? - -Well where they at now -this year they sure the hell not in any bette spot having lost nine- -ten games and in like third or fourth in the Big East – It cycles-- it’s going to happen TO EVERYONE. Sooner or later it’s coming
With the way the Portal and the way it’s become , how the NIL has become a factor and turned it all into a big Meat Market ,it has made it as to where the better talented players are becoming more evenly dispersed it’s changed the playing field.
Certain Colleges still me actually have a richer history , and remain a blueblood if that College might not have that strong of belief in the NIL and or refuse to just throw money around as much- - then bigger brand school or not they will lose out to the more talented player in a lot of cases These players- - these more talented players are going where they are going to get paid more money whether they actually feel the other school less NIL is Still a better school- - -they taking that better deal.
Do you seriously believe that if all things equal straight across the board you can seriously sit there and actually say that players like AJ Bantysia the # 1 ranked recruit coming in next year if BYU hadn’t tossed all that money at him , you seriously believe he would of still committed to BYU ?- -If you do then I call BS.- -do you think if KSU hadn’t offered Coleman Hawkins the money they did, he still would of went there anyway ?-- Ya ?- -ok lmao. Again the talented id more spread out…
Back to the cycling where all schools or biggest majority of them go through cycles of down years and it’s just going to het worse with the distrubution of players across the Nation now- Big reason people see it more badly like with KU - -A Lot bigger brand-- blueblood , Historty- -when we have down year- -years when cycling people just can’t grasp reality.
Look at Kentucky ? Huge Brand Name School - -blue blood of blue bloods - -down years , always loaded with 5 * players and portal players , what are they doing this year ?- -hoovering around with eight nine losses- - - cycling, you don’t think they won’t er back ? -What about N Carolina ? - -Cycling Do these teams just suck ?- -umm no , it’s the other Schools now getting better elite players also. Your not ever gonna see anything again like what KU did with winning so many dam conferences i a row. You’ll neve come close to ever seeing a dynasty like UCla had- -It’s just got a lot harder with the Portal and NIL

Boy did WV ever gte screwed by NCAA.
Well NCAA has done it again, just royally screwed West Virginia right out of their bid.
Just Beyond stupid a lot of people are up in arms and not just West Virginia fans- - Big Twelve fans are too and a lot of talk across the Nation the reason, instead who was the last team picked to get in ?= = — – North Carolina- - -N Carolina who had a grand total of ONE quad one win-- -ONE ! ! ! - -North Carolina went 1-- -12 in Quad One games played,- -West Virginia ? - - West Virginia had SIX quad one wins. --Just so happens N Carolina’s Bubba Cunnigham happens to be the Chairman of this dam thing- - Imagine that - -WOW. As a matter of fact West Virginia’s Six Quad One wins was more the other THREE teams N Carol - - San Diego St - - & Xavier- put those three teams together and combined those three had FIVE QUAD ONE WINS - -W V had SIX by themselves
If that’s not bad enough the NCAA Committee decided to screw them even more by adding the two bottom tier from the SEC- - Two Teams that lost two thirds of their Conference games- -They put Texas and Oklahoma in and left WV out.- - These two teams went 6-1 in the League and West Virginia went 8-- 10 in the Big Twelve , on top of that not only did they put Texas in the tourney with a 6=12 record in Conference-- , they didn’t even put them in a play in game- -they shoved them in as a NINE seed - -not even close to a play
The system is broke, and they need to move these old farts out of there and get someone who knows how to evaluate teams- -West Virginia GOT SCREWED big time

RE: Lance is COOKING
My Goodness. Lance and the staff really our just killing it sounds/looks like in 2026 recruiting-- - rumor has been spreading that 2026 was Lane’s year in recruiting especially local in State kids which has been lacking in past Coaching staffs. – Not in 2026 , KU at this point I checked had a top 20 ranking for their 2026 class.
In 2026 so far we have the # 1 or # 2 ranked player in the State has committed name is J J Dunnigan – the # 4 ranked player in the State & ranked as the # 32 player in the Nation has committed name is Hunter Higgins - - -The # 9 ranked player in the State has committed name is Jayden Mason. On top of this read/saw today we have received CB picks for Tgren Parker - -( Athlete ) – then we have a CB down for Nate Sims -WR ( announcing his decision on the 23rd, & we are the favorite for him WR - -Then the cream from today is A 4 * OL Kayden Synder - - with receiving these CB’s means we are in really good shape. These three picks that all came in today came from the K/State analyst predicting these three are landing at KU.
On top of that we are in a really good spot for the # 1 TE end in Kansas- name is Ian Premer, has been to visit KU multiple times and Jr day , Coach is cleaning up in State , no more of out of State Schools coming in and swiping quality players right here out of Kansas under our nose If we land Premer- — would give us Seven of the top kids from right here in Kansas. - - also in on Josh Galbreath a Rb right here in Lawrence- then the # 1 player WR out of the State of Nebraska Amarion Jackson- - been to visit KU multiple times and Jr day.- -Sitting up to be a massive year in 2026

RE: The portal.
@dylans I agree with you 100 % & this is exactly what I’ve been saying also all College ball is a minor league now for the pro’s NIL ha destoyed the game of College Basketball there is no NCAA basketball anymore. I have never watched any G league ball either, your spot on.

RE: The portal.
@drgnslayr I understand and I’m hopeful that Coach at least tries to make the connection a that Big Man you speak of at the present would be Mbyia
-
RE: The portal.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Ya I would think they would still try and reach out and see for sure. Mbyia visited KU on his original recruitment and KU was in the mix for him – - like you said 7’7 wing span , he was tearing up the Euro league showed scoring of 15.3 ppg- --11.7 rpg - - -& 3 blocks per game --pretty serious numbers,
Like the article put out though would be if he came who is your starter ?- Flory or Mbyia ?- - Mbyia -6’11 and 260 with that 7’7 wing span, gonna be a lot of Schools on him

RE: The portal.
Mercy , who really knows 100 % for sure just exactly where we stand on recruiting ? I mean through misses in our recruiting with High School & portal we have really hit the international route really hard this off season trying to find that back up Big and that scoring wing.
I’m just starting to get this feeling that in the end we may NOT be in quite as bad of shape as it seems. It just maybe , maybe might be with these guys being international bottom line is things JUST TAKE LONGER , RIGHT ? - --could be Visa’s-- - - Could be eligibility , - ---- there is no way we can possibly know the whole story as to where we stans, Hell they might have already actually given a verbal , now just waiting on the process.
As far as Ege or Koren as to who I would take ? – — that is a tough one for me. Like has been said by BeddieKU23 we are further along with Demir , sure fit -----I would take Ege because of his rebounding aggressive attack of the rim & length-----BUT I would take Korem because very fluid, makes some nice passes , looks like he can hit the three occasionally , handles the ball well- - I dunno I will take either and be fine if they commit.
Yet like Kcmatt7 says when we see that Karem is following KU on Social, does kind of seem like we have seen this before usually means interested for sure and might be heavy interest- - -in the end I think we will be fine,-- like they say I guess patience is a victual

RE: The portal.
@BeddieKU23 Ya I had since read that Demir like you mentioned had actually verbal to UCLA a few years back but didn’t meet UCLA’S standard . of English. Crazy score he needed to qualify for UCLA- -had to score a 100 for them, was referenced just silly, as even Harvard and Cal which are very High Schools their scores needed in English is 80.
KU score needed is 79 but if a individual takes a paper test in home the score drops to a 60 , so yes your right a lot better chance to qualify.
Interesting enough I had thought about this before they brought this up —Demir reminds them and me as a some what smaller version of Doke right at a 7’3 wing span , very aggressive rebounder, attacks the rim with vicious dunks. going to bring strong rebounding , good lob go getter, poor free thrower, needs to reduce turnovers
