@approxinfinity yeah he went 11th, not sure what got lost in translation there

@approxinfinity he absolutely killed the combine, both in athletic testing and shooting.

KU keeps things close to the vest on NIL. They’re going to hit the revshare cap easily and Goff said yesterday they’re adding scholarships. On the Big East thing, fine they’ll have more RevShare for basketball but none of them are good on NIL. Any school like KU can easily compete in terms of a total financial package. On UConn, they’re going to spend a lot more than most on women’s basketball as well. KU is well positioned to compete, though being in the Big 12 vs. the P2 is still a significant disadvantage. It would be a heck of a lot easier to hit the revshare cap with an additional $40m in tv revenue.

@Texas-Hawk-10 he went from a good kid who loves throwing bales to work out to an entitled diva overnight

@rockchalkjayhawk post-House there is a hard cap we have in terms of RevShare. That money is spent. Now, if there are donors willing to pony up for NIL for a guy (subject to getting through Deloitte’s clearinghouse) that’s a different deal but KUAD is tapped.

Ahh, gotcha. So RevShare is that $20 million cap that schools have for all sports?

Yes. All power conference schools have the same lid in terms of revshare

Also there remains no better closer than Billy Eugene Self.

Yeah any other additions would be walk on types. Revshare is tapped.

I’d look for news about a big visiting soon

Ethan Taylor today unless you mean something else

Mibya. They’re hard on him

@SlimShaddy54 yeah it’s mostly there. It’s a full go to tear down right after the season.

Latest update I have is the east side plans aren’t totally finalized yet but the most likely outcome is no suites, but does have a club level (think Arrowhead). The contractors are done 8/1 then KUAD does the finishing touches.

I’d look for news about a big visiting soon

Also $2.8 billion in backpay for athletes dating back to 2016.

Yeah it’s just transcript issues with Dessert. My sister was responsible for transcript evals when she was in athletics and always said international SAs were pains in the ass to get cleared.

When the House settlement finally happens all the collectives will RIP. NIL deals will be run through Delloite’s clearinghouse and AD contributions will be capped.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Haggerty if he comes back to school or, more likely, we go the international route.

@dylans yes, but it’s not done yet

Let’s Boogie

Swain says KU likes its chances still. There’s a ways to go yet.

JJ is good with KU

I don’t think there’s anything to the HCIW thing

Sounds like a Sarr visit this weekend

@approxinfinity the Spurs already hired Pop’s replacement so yeah 0%

@Texas-Hawk-10 20-21 was the Covid year so it doesn’t count either

So in theory he has 2 more year of eligibility?

I still think just one because he’s played 3 years of D1 ball that count: 20-21 - Covid, doesn’t count 21-22 - JuCo, doesn’t count(?) 22-23: WVU 23-24: WVU 24-25: OSU

So he’d need the JuCo year to not count too. Weird situation.

The JuCo seasons no longer counting towards eligibility is why Diggy is playing at Maryland next season instead of being out of eligibility which should mean Suemnick still has two more seasons of eligibility then.

There’s no world where he has two left. He’s already played 3 D1 seasons that count.

@dylans I think they’d win that one, I don’t see the antitrust violation there. The rest of the suits seem pretty open and shut Sherman violations.

It would take the NCAA changing rules. Right now if you stay in the draft your eligibility is over.

The other night I watched a Dame to Kill For. Good movie. Also Dame watch is ON

@Texas-Hawk-10 20-21 was the Covid year so it doesn’t count either

@Texas-Hawk-10 Covid year

You obviously take Sarr if/when he wants to commit. Then keep recruiting Williams through the draft process. I don’t think there’s a realistic chance to get both but you absolutely recruit like there is.

Bill was also in Cancun for most of last week so not a lot of recruiting was going on lol

@Texas-Hawk-10 the WVU series at the end of the season looms large

@SlimShaddy54 also Gradey Dick in the house

The Hog is cranked tonight. Crazy turnaround from the days when you could wander in any time and get a good seat

@wissox Tim is a great reporter. He was raised in the church then worked for National Review and The Atlantic.

That’s a bummer. Those 12 personnel sets would’ve feasted.

I’ll be at the Mizzou game Tuesday! #CRANKTHEHOG

@Texas-Hawk-10 to quote a senior administration official, “The cruelty is the point”

Jereme Robinson to Daaaaa Bears

@drgnslayr nice! I’ll definitely check it out later this summer. Hopefully catch a sale

I’m really surprised Brown didn’t get taken.

@drgnslayr nice. I’m going to look at upgrading in the fall for football. I just have a bare bones Z Grill right now. It does the job for smaller things like ribs and poultry but it struggles with temperature regulation for bigger cuts.

I have a pellet grill and a Blackstone griddle on the back porch. I use the Blackstone a ton since it comes up to temp very quickly, is crazy easy to maintain, and is more versatile. It does burgers better than my smoker honestly. I can go from pulling the meat out of the fridge to eating in like 10 minutes.

I went to the Red Lyon for a brew and to watch some ball and talked with the rando next to me. Turns out he was the executive chef for the Dallas Cowboys at one point and is in town planning the menu for… a new restaurant in Allen Fieldhouse. It’ll be mostly a big donor spot but he told me the menu was going to be super high end and Kansas themed. Smoked meats at AFH for everyone! @approxinfinity i nominate it for the KU Buckets holiday party

@Jhawk69 high upside guy for sure. Great measurables, FCS freshman All America last year.

@FarmerJayhawk Give me William’s - doesn’t seem like Stokes is reclassifying

Your comment on KJ and the 5/5 has me worried because that is the last thing we need is another year of KJ starting in mid-February

Same. But there’s almost no chance KJ can play next year. Definitely not as a big piece. He just won’t be in shape.

@kuballin10 said in Recruiting Notes:

Sounds like Stokes is 2026 still

Williams we want but will be out of his price range….hed be perfect here

If he’s all in on his last year, make some calls, get the money for Williams. Build a monster roster.

Yep, the money is there for the right guy

Really hoping the 5/5 rule happens. Zeke is the only player from last year it would affect. (KJ is hurt, Hunt and Juan already played 5)

@TYOHawk said in Recruiting Notes:

Staff is working…

Bill Self on his shit

Making the hardest pivot. Which, if it’s Williams or Stokes for a year, that’s a really close call.
