Sherron and Tyshawn were pretty dang fast too.

Yeah, that’s what makes Dotson so special. Pretty sure he is faster.

Update: They got Ayton too.

Something is brewing.

@justanotherfan Doke is definitely a plodder. I think Dave can get up and down a bit. Hoping Silvio can play (but not expecting it).

Dotson looks like the fastest guard Self has ever had at KU w/ the ball.

@jayballer73 Hey buddy…are you ready to see the best KU team since 2008? Our cup runneth over…

Self has some pieces, that’s for sure…

I don’t know if we’ve signed a guard as ready as he is to compete and impact the game.

JJ and Wiggins. But other than that…and of course Grimes is much more of a guard than those two.

Some great upsets today. Mexico beating Germany was amazing. Mexico looked like the better team. Their offense was electric consistently getting downfield faster than the Germans. The Swiss tying Brazil was also a surprise. Neymar seemed to feel the pressure as much as Messi did yesterday.

Yeah Mexico shredded German’y midfield. It’s Low’s own fault really for playing Khedira…

@KUSTEVE Grimes had a great tournament but his three point shot was off. Tbf it is from longer range than the college line plus so many games in a short span but still 6/25 is just not good.

Just watched the replay. A couple observations: -Grimes is going to be really good. He’s way more advanced than almost anyone on the court. I’ll be curious to see how his game translates against better athletes in college. Well-deserved MVP though. -Hurt and JRE are almost must-gets. Hurt is so skilled, and a better defender than I thought. He’s a ways away, but will be a really good college player. JRE is coldly efficient and had a great motor. He and Hurt would be great complements. Honestly, Hurt/McCormack/JRE would be the best frontcourt in the country, and that’s not even including Silvio. -I want Cole Anthony baaaad. He’s as most complete a guard as I’ve seen in awhile. No idea if we have a shot at getting him (sounds like it’s a pretty locked down deal so far), but he and Dotson would be dirty. -There are a few under the radar types that impressed me: Watts and Josiah James especially. James reminds me of Marcus Garrett somewhat. -What happened to bigs? This team was pretty thin up front. How are Bacot and Hepa ranked that high? -Another reminder of how good Self is. USA wasn’t great for awhile, then found another gear late. He’s probably the best at maximizing talent.

Yeah I was not impressed with Hepa. Also by going to Texas he didn’t exactly pick a great coach to help out his offensive game.
