      @BeddieKU23 So if he is still reporting good things but just can’t say anything- - I get that and understand it and appreciate, just wondering if you know and made you final decision then why to wait to announce drag things out. Unless tidying up the details on legal work of how much.

    • RE: The portal.

      Just read an article from Athlon sports. Talking about how Duke was losing a big time elite international player in the portal. Talked about how Duke at one time had been considered a serious player for the kid Dame Sarr in a four School battle.- -Duke , KU , Oregon , & Illinois.

      Talked about how things had cooled off considerably since like mid April and insiders of Duke said they would be quite surprised if he did end up there, as Sarr was trending hard towards KU- - Eric Bossi was also talking about KU saying things were looking very positive for Kansas Announcement should be coming soon. KU in great shape.

      Talking about Sarr . they said whoever lands him will be getting an NBA level athlete very skilled and serious upside. The league he played isn is probably the best league outside the NBA - -sounds promising to me.

      I did see off 147 sports that at 12:57 this afternoon that Travis Brenham of 247 put a CB for Sarr to KU rating of a 7 which is considered high. All I know is I hope it does work out this way

      @RockkChalkk KU is four games behind West Virginia right now. West Virginia is 19 -6 - While KU is 17-10.- -I still think we make a regional with the type of year we have had.-- I’m really afraid of getting swept by Wv as our pitching staff has been in kind of a funk for the last couple of weeks we shall see

      Got a question , have we secured any kind of a commit from any back up five man for Flory yet ?- - I mean I know everybody worried about getting a wing like Sarr which I understand but I mean STILL last I knew we couldn’t even get a verbal commit from a walk on back up Big to commit to us from Okie St – -THAT’S NOT GOOD I realize maybe they didn’t push or try that hard but bottom line is we better be getting some help there also I mean to complete this roster.- -We need solid Wings- -BUT don’t think we are really givin enough importance of getting a quality back up five eother

    • RE: We get Mr pants on Backwards to start

      @Texas-Hawk-10 Boy Howdy I’d say. Though when has KU eve backed away from a challenging Non Con ? – probably gonna take some licks , but I think I’d rather play that challenging schedule over a schedule full of powder puffs like some do, although some say that drains a team later in the Season all the really hard games early. That’s where you depth needs to come in and get some minutes, give the starting five some breaks ,- That’s why it’s vital we still got plenty of work to do to complete this roster.

    • We get Mr pants on Backwards to start

      Different start this year we get a break instead of rolling right into the teeth of our Schedule. We get Coach pants on backwards on November 3rd.

      We get to play Green Bay on Nov 3rd and Coach Doug Gottlieb.-- he was like 4-18 in his 1st year, and pretty controversial .-- Not only was he Coaching Green Bay but he refused to give up his 5 day Radio show he had also-- splitting his time. Green Bay fans were questioning his loyality between the Team and his show.

      I just remembe when they came to the phog and the crowd started Chanting " Pants on Backwards- – -Pants on Backwards lol and he stood in the middle of team huddle before the game started and fixed his pants – Holy smokes lol

    • RE: The portal.

      @Jhawk69 Hell if Williams went D league he might as ewll come to KU and probably make more in NIL money then on a D league contract.- - In D league chances are make less money- – -play fewer minutes , you have NO idea how long your going to Woller in D league— Hell you may NEVER make it to an NBA roster.

      If that’s his option better coming to KU work on his game ==get more floor minutes to do just that, develop more of a game fine tune things and might even be drafted higher in the draft then if he enters now.

      If it comes down to D league or back to College for another year-- -it’s a no brainer

    • RE: The portal.

      Just watched a pod cast that saying Crystal Ball starting to roll in, don’t ask me where I haven’t seen but being said-- -several outlets predicting so sounding really good. They said since the final ranking came in Sarr is like a five star , probable one and done

      They were saying they can’t see why he wouldn’t.- --Fit is good - -role is good-- - - money is good what more would you want /

      Question was asked where would you rank the Combo of Peterson & Sarr? -they ended up behind Houston and another in 3rd position- --what you think?

      Then what about this-- think about this where would you put- – Peterson-- - Sarr – - & Bidunga ?- - mmmm man makes the mouth water a tiny bit lol-- -think about those three for starters. -Then you put key role players to fill in White- - - Dawson. Then you just got the need for back up big , and I think if Tille is healthy he would suffice for sure was ranked a five star and # 21 in the Nation according to 147 he doesn’t need to be some super stuf , but when you combine the two of Bidunga AND Tille we would be fine

      Well crap , hope I’m wrong about this just got this queasy feeling in my stomach after seeing poster, so I’m reaching out to Farmer Jayhawk for help seeing if he has heard anything. If you heard anything hope it’s positive and not the negative I’ve read.

      Have you heard anything on J J Dunnigan ? Very talented kid from Manhattan that committed to KU back on January 2nd- --he posted BIG ANNOUNCEMENT coming soon. Well of course most of the replies was K/State talking like he is going to back out from KU and they want him there - -some Nebraska posters too talking like they gonna get him there. – Just saw one that said he was bring Premier with him to KU- -I’d love that

      Just pretty worried he might be de-committing have you heard anything buddy. I know he is under a lot of pressure going to Manhattan High and then coming to Ku. Now I also read a couple where they said he was transferring out of Manhattan- - give me good news Farmer-- - Thanks if you know.

      Here is a question cause I don’t know. But I thought they had done away with teams being able to make drastic shifts in the infield trying to adjust for hitters. Having four players on the first base side for an example. Or is that just in the Major. thought that got done away with.
