RE: 2026 Transfer Portal Chaos/Madness Thread
Apparently Kohl has been shopping for a month or more. Didn’t work out here after a lot of buzz leading into the year.
IMO this was just another questionable evaluation for what you paid and needed from that spot on the roster. We no longer can think about long term evals. Regardless of whether Self or the system wasn’t a fit for him or he was simply too young for this stage this quickly, this is why continued improvement on roster building has to jump to the top of this coaching staffs to do list. Rosario and Mbiya could have been replaced with more experienced players ready to contribute more than a few games. The last games they both played in tells you they have potential to compete at this level but simply need more experience and reps.
Got to think a team like Miami would be a landing spot for Rosario this time around. They were a player first time, he’s from there and Lucas is building Miami up quickly it appears

RE: Other Games 2025-2026
I for one was very happy with the result. Even if it was a lesser of 2 evils

Spent a lot of money on him to be played so sparingly after non conference. A case of going too young

Looking like Kohl Rosario will enter soon after removing KU from his socials. No surprise given his camp being very unhappy with how his situation turned out

Devin Royal of Ohio St. Very similar to Tre White in ways but with more girth. Capable 3 level scorer

RE: 2026 Transfer Portal Chaos/Madness Thread
Dra Gibbs Lawhorn in from UNLV. Started at Illinois. Won't be too many better guards than him in the portal. 41% from 3 on 244 attempts.

Keanu Dawes in from Utah. Would be an ideal "3rd big". Played well against KU. Hopefully Houston isn't his destination if we don't pursue

RE: Coaching Changes
His buyout is much lower then Lloyd as well

RE: Money next year
If Self does hang it up the entire recruiting class is gone most likely. That’s unless you’re able to get someone that Kinney would latch onto which is really the only player that would impact next years roster. I doubt he’d stay with the uncertainty though.
The rest of the class is mid outside him currently. Perry is a pet favorite of Self, a hard nosed player who can’t shoot a lick but has lots of defensive skill and positional size. Barnett is a guy who averages double figures as a Sr on a team that prioritizes shooting and freedom to let it fly. Adkins is a project big that was touted to have a high ceiling as a Jr but regressed changing schools and has shown not much development and his ranking has tanked because of it.
The roster outside of a few has been shopped by their agents it sounds. Doesn’t mean all will go but for guys like Rosario and Mbiya you have no reason to return again given the limited opportunities given to them this year. Put yourself in their shoes. Rosario started then barely played once conference season started. And with Paul, it took 30 games before he was even an option but had to watch all yr as Self ran his two big starters into the ground regardless of the situation. Neither was a perfect player but we saw more positives from them yesterday then several others that continually underperformed. Our coach plays his favorites and that’s just how it is.
A new coach might have the biggest challenge in decades having to fill a roster.

RE: Kansas vs St Johns
Flory abused by their bench big is hilarious
