@FarmerJayhawk lol. Yeah The Brotherhood has 7 in the portal like KU did last season. Can lead to some big time team construction issues…

Wiggins and Embiid big? Guess that wasn’t the same weekend. I’m still ticked about DeShawn Stevenson’s ACT score…should’ve been a big weekend.

RE: Furphy
@approxinfinity Maybe the hockey model will become a thing in basketball too. No reason not to under the current rules.
ie NBA team drafts a hs player and designated him to a certain college team or set of teams at his choice for development… ahem I mean allow the student athlete to pick a school to develop for 2 years (not the 3 hockey requires) before becoming league eligible. The nba team would have a more developed prospect under contract and the full term intact once the player is called up.

RE: Furphy
It’s a business now. I don’t know why they don’t completely eliminate the ncaa and make the new hires sign binding one year contracts pay a signing bonus and be on to the rest of team assembly and coaching. Recruiting and re-recruiting the same commit several times per year is exhausting. I hope it doesn’t drive Bill into retirement.

RE: 2024 Recruiting
It is well known that Harris would be back this next year. Surely that isn’t the reason Philon is wavering. Hell Dejuan told me last year he was playing two more for KU and he doesn’t know me from Adam. Everyone knew Harris was coming back.

@kuballin10 And if they can’t beat out that what does it say about the “superior” talent? keep up your narrative buddy.

RE: New NIL tournament for next year
I wonder how long universities will continue to receive public funding for semi-pro sports? Will it come to a vote like the Royals/Chiefs next time they want a new arena!?!

RE: Arterio Morris
@approxinfinity said in Arterio Morris:
Its funny that the first 3 articles that come up when i google arterio morris refer to him as “ex-kansas player arterio morris”. Cant get the stink off, he’s been hangin round for days…
Ugg. Too true and he didn’t play a game that counted for KU.
Need to amend those articles to say Ex-Texas Longhorn (SEC! SEC! SEC!!!) player Arterio Morris.

RE: Furphy
Hope he comes back to finish developing, but if not it’s next man up.

@Gorilla72 They can have him. I wouldn’t care if he played like Mike, Arterio is dog shit stuck to big Jays shoe. Scrape it off and move on until the stench wears off.

RE: Furphy
I’d like to see an upgrade at that position maybe a guy who shows up for the second half of games. I was hoping that would be sophomore Furphy, but I don’t know if he will ever be able to achieve that level of consistency. I do think he could lead a team by his Jr year, but Freshman Furphy was at the level of solid bench piece on a championship level team.
If he goes it’s disappointing that we won’t get to see him develop into a more finished product. He does have lots of potential.
-
RE: Furphy
@BeddieKU23 Zach Edey needs to shut up. If he wanted to make money, he should join the workforce. He was the national player of the year last season, how did he improve his draft stock by coming back?
And as for the lack of NIL…that’s the terms that every single player before NIL played under. If he can’t figure out how to make it work then that’s more of a show of the instant gratification culture we live in than anything else. Getting better would pay dividends.

RE: Furphy
@BigBad Diallo’s team won the conference. But yea he did nothing for KU and is somehow still in the nba scoring 3 points a game at 27 years old. (Well in 21-22 he was in the league). I’m thinking Diallo’s biggest contribution was to the chat board conversations.
-
RE: Furphy
That NBA teams think he is ready surprises me. Furphy absolutely sucked in the second half of pretty much every game he played at KU.
While Furphy at times completely outclassed the entire roster, if he truly leaves he will be the least accomplished OAD in KU history. Furphy helped KU to its worse record since they were on probation in 1989 and he did absolutely nothing at an elite level. I’d love to watch him continue to develop at KU, but if he’s going to go pro I wish him the best in Europe or wherever he ends up.

Sorry to put you on the spot Crimson, I just have always thought Purdue does things right, their fans are decent, high academic standards, no shenanigans that I can remember.
Glenn (Big Dog) Robinson and his 45 tournament points is reason enough for me.

Calipari Out
Later Kentucky, hello Arkansas!
I’m curious to see who Kentucky hires. With a poor hire I would not want to continue any on going series with UK (champions classic or whatever it’s called, I believe the Big12 SEC challenge is over and if so it ended just in time). With the right hire I’d love to continue playing Kentucky regularly.

Is KU recruiting Johnell Davis? Seems like the team could use another 2 guard.

RE: 2024 Portal Madness Thread
@approxinfinity I am no Lebron James fan, however I was really impressed with how he is handling any questions regarding Bronny’s transfer. Lebron said (I’m paraphrasing) Bronny has a difficult decision to make and that he would support him in whatever he chose. He sounds supportive and not at all like a Lavar Ball type. I don’t think Lebron would be a problem, but his celebrity might.

NIL
https://apple.news/A3UQJu44QRHKcro1rsCKcPA
Edey is facing the same challenges that Furphy has in regards to very limited access to NIL money due to F1 status. I do not feel as though Edey should complain about lost earnings as he decided to return to college ball, when he would have been drafted last season and really did nothing to improve his drafts stock by returning to school.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Really need another RB with some pop, maybe a rookie. Clyde is ok for the 3rd option - fair blocker for someone so small, catches the ball well, slow runner, that can’t power for a yard though. I would like to see a bruiser to compliment Pacheco - perhaps that rugby guy will show out, but I think he’s know for being fast.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
Carson Wentz replaces Blaine Gabbert as the backup QB. Solid move. Gabbert threw too many picks to be a dependable backup.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
@rockchalkjayhawk I believe it was reported that he was wearing the red bandana thing and the black shirt at the bowling alley earlier in the day. That dude in the white shirt is huge - looks like a football player, but Rice isn’t that big.
Hopefully this gets resolved today. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
@dylans Not me - I copied and pasted from another chat room. Take it for what it’s worth.
——————————
Ok… just got off the phone with my brother and he works in Houston and Dallas with us both being attorneys. Yeah a family of all attorneys!
Soooo… with up to $200 worth of property damage before leaving the scene, they have committed a Class C misdemeanor.
maximum fine of $500 No jail time
An accident that results in more than $200 worth of damages is a Class B misdemeanor, which is
maximum fine of $2,000 maximum jail sentence of 180 days
Now this gets tricky…
More serious the accident was, the stricter the penalties for leaving the scene. A hit&run involving a “serious injury” classifies as a 3rd degree felony.
maximum fine of $10,000 prison sentence from 2 to 10 years
Finally, leaving the scene of a fatal accident is a 2nd degree felony or man slaughter.
Minimum fine of $10,000 and a prison sentence from 5 to 20 years
Now there were minimum injuries but whoever was involved with be hit with civil lawsuits of course. We both can see pleading down if the DA racks up a bunch of charges. Hopefully reckless driving and possible street racing. But who knows now.

Doesn’t look too terrible. However running from the scene of an accident where an injury occurs is a felony in Texas. - I’ll try to find more precise info on that, but basically the worse someone is hurt the worse the penalty, but even minor injuries can incur a couple year jail sentence if you run.

RE: 2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
The Chiefs may need to draft a WR with their first pick of Rashee Rice is going to be unavailable. (Rice is wanted in connection to a wreck in Dallas.) Probably better secure one of the FA OTs that are available for draft flexibility.

RE: Other bball games
@DCHawker If KU is having an off year, the Big12 won’t do squat in the tournament. Next year might be different with Arizona in conference (they’ve already flamed out too though) as I’m not sure Houston or Baylor will push KU long term.

RE: Dam , Walt Wesley passes.
https://kuathletics.com/kansas-great-walt-wesley-passes/
From Fort Myers, Florida, Wesley was a two-time Consensus All-American at Kansas in 1965 and 1966. Wesley, who stood 6-foot, 11-inches, was also a two-time All-Big Eight selection following his junior and senior seasons. Wesley’s career average of 19.3 points per game ranks in the top 10 on the KU all-time scoring average list and his 1,315 career points are 33rd. He averaged over 20 points in his junior and senior seasons.
