KU still involved with Bashir.
Miller is not an option anymore.
Yes ku is still involved with bashir
well, he would qualify as a shooter we currently need. There's that. but, i don't recall much else of his game. Looks like a skinny dude.
So reading in between the lines here … sounds like we really have just two, maybe three legit starters so far?
Stokes, Dawes, Blyden?
No bueno

Abdi Bashir has a zoom call setup with KU. Former purple cat, was injured a majority of Big-12 play.
Yikes
He's terrible. This can't be the last "impactful" addition. Fwiw, he doesn't move the needle at all on Torvik or Miya.
Is there anybody left who would move the needle? Or is this the cream on top of the steaming pile?
I hope we can fill out the roster with a few more experienced, quality players soon.
At the moment we don’t seem to have a top tier lineup.
Goodman comments on what kind of player Stokes is.

Roster updated!
As far as i can tell, we have 11 players. that includes one walk on dude, but i'm not sure if he's coming back.
That gives us 4 roster spots to fill.
State your predictions below!
I got KU.
I like many of Kohl’s traits.
Mainly, he’s all over the place on the floor. Love that basic “skill”. Excellent hustle and strength. Love that he hits the boards and gets after loose balls.
His shooting can’t get worse, so there’s hope. I’m sure he’ll grow considerably as a player given time.
Happy he’s on the team.

@Jayhawk_69 don’t listen to anyone except Tyran on committing or a timeline. Almost no chance he does it without announcing a date and setting up a whole dog and pony show with CBS or ESPN
sounds about right.
I can see the ESPN promos now ... and now, sponsored by Purina Dog Chow ... the Tyran Stokes commitment show!
We'll see tomorrow @jayhawk_69 -- maybe.
Pretty much everybody sees it as a two horse race: KU and Kentucky.
Both teams pretty desperate for a top NIL signing?
So, let the bags of cash lead him one direction or the other...
Ahh yea, gotcha. Thx. Zzz.
This is not sounding promising! I hate the new era…

It also sounds like there is only enough $ for a Miller type + Stokes. The rest will have to be filled with PWO types. Yikes
Grant Mordini is one of those. Visits Monday
I’m half asleep…what’s a PWO type?
Not really a surprise I guess. Thanks for the memories (And maybe a few nightmares)?
I hope he fires his entire entourage, and hires a proper firm to up his PR perception.
Best of luck.
As is, our lineup is quite underwhelming. Hoping that changes soon.
Peter Woods is interesting. He was all the rage the year before apparently. Some ranked him the #1 DL prospect.
I guess we should be happy with the #1 rated CB in the draft in Delane, but was a circuitous route to get him.
Study time!
Holy smokes! Just tuned into the draft to see the Chiefs just gave away multiple picks for a guy they prolly coulda got at No 9 anyway? Hmmm

Mel coming back would be huge. Kinney wouldn’t have to start that way. He could be a very valuable 6th man.
Meh.
I am grateful for this time at KU, but historically it seems we could and should do better than Melvin as a starter.
He’d be better than freshman Kinney IMO
I can’t say I know much yet about Kinney. But, I was hoping a portal transfer would take over.
Not high hopes for Kinney?
