Bill the Wizard
Our only RSCI top 100 players truly in the rotation are Dave and JWill.
Couple KS 3 stars (Och/CB), a PG going to Missouri State, a super walk-on and Remy is obviously good but was a fringe 4 star (depending on the site).
Player development is so good, and people (myself included) tend to underrate returning players.

Didn’t really want to talk about this beforehand but it went well. I should be okay.

What Bruce Weber Says vs What Bruce Weber Does
Says he told his team to back off, but he had starters in PRESSING AND HARD FOULING KU’s walk-ons with 2 minutes to go. I call bullshit, Squeaky.

BAH GAWD, THAT WAS A GREAT GAME FROM DAVID MCCORMACK.

Mitch
He’s been serviceable all tournament. Tip of the cap. I’ve been hard on him all year.

RE: Latrell Jossell
Guys…
Jossell grew up with Kansas as his dream school. He never really thought he’d wind up playing there and didn’t have any real connections to KU. He just always was intrigued by the place ever since he first saw a KU game on television while watching sports with his grandfather growing up.
“There’s just something about Kansas," he said. "The way the arena looked, the way everything looked, I would always just run in there whenever my grandpa said KU was on TV and I just fell in love with it.”
So when the time came this week to tell his grandfather about the KU offer and his plans to sign, needless to say it was a big moment for both of them.
“He was so excited,” Jossell said. “He said he could barely even focus when he was at work. It was great to hear that and a great moment for both of us.”

Dear Bill
I’m sorry for doubting you. You are a wizard.

No Vick to get more Charlie. Not sure we won on that
So, the healthy and eligible roster right now
Dotson, Grimes, Agbaji, Moore, Lawson, Lawson, Mitch, McCormack
We are foul trouble away from TEAHAN TIME.
I wish I was surprised but the last few years have numbed away being pissed off about not having enough players or depth. It’s a circus
Well to be fair it’s hard to account for two injuries. Even in this crap scenario if Garrett and Doke were just healthy there would be more than enough depth.
So for now, Self pretty much has to play all 8 guys. We will get to see if Dave and KJ can adapt.
In the mean time…I heard KU is recruiting this player…

Not sure how we got to the FF with Juan and 44. Was told they would hold us back.

Okay so next game is the Och game
He was pretty good this game too. We owe Jay Wright a beat down.

Best half we have played all year.

RE: Next Year's Team Thread
Been watching a lot of Ernest Udeh and if this kid gets the system down he should get real minutes. Getting the system down is no small task but his body is P5 ready. Again not any real skill to speak of but like Udoka you surround him with 4 guards/wings and let him rebound/dunk/block. Seals/screens very well, and has really good/strong hands.

Also I am sure we are still recruiting Scottie Barnes and some others super hard or something, but I am not listing players KU has absolutely no chance to get.
July 16 Update Notes: Harris committed and joined the 2019 class so he was removed. Cam’ron Fletcher cut to 5 and KU didn’t make it so he was removed.
Aug 27 Update: Moved Caleb Love down to big target. Removed Daishen Nix who committed to UCLA. Removed RJ Davis and Josh Hall who appear to be trending in other directions. Added Javonte Brown-Ferguson, Moses Moody and JT Thor since he reclassified.
Sept 27 Update:

#$%@ Covid
Losing a dear, long time friend to it. Well it’s very likely at this point anyway. I’m pretty broken up about it, trying to to get into a bad drinking situation like when I lost my dad.
Love you all, board rats.

RE: 2022 Recruiting Thread
@mayjay Yeah while rankings are nice, they are not the end all be all. You also see guys like Svi and Frank near the bottom of the list, both were of course great Jayhawks.
To that end, I really think Bobby and Udeh in particular are tremendously good fits for Self, but we will see.

RE: Trae Young wants to end Kansas's streak, the line is long lol
Maybe he should rewatch his HS game last year where he lost to Garrett.

RE: Random thoughts
Bruce said refs beforehand told him if fouls on Doke weren’t within the normal flow of the game they would be ruled flagrant.

RE: Breaking News: Bruce Weber Loves KU, Gifts Win
Bruce Weber was asked if Trae Young is the Big 12 Player of the Year. “To me, the Big 12 Player of the Year is (for) the people who win the league.”

Silvio And Malik
It’s apparent that Silvio doesn’t really know what he is doing yet. When he does watch out. 19 minutes and he grabbed 11 reb and scored 8 pts on 3-5 shooting. Did miss a wide open lay-up though. A couple blown defensive assignments that I noticed.
Malik is absolutely insane right now. Playing out of his mind on both ends. I hope he keeps it up and we get Doke back.
