@Woodrow Evaluating talent isn’t the biggest issue. KU’s talent isn’t 20-30 points inferior to the rest of the B12.

Beaty’s issue is his indecisiveness. He cannot stick with a decision. 3 OC’s in 4 years but even the coordinators have changed positions this offseason, 4 offensive systems in 4 years, most of the position coaches change roles every offseason. There’s no consistency in the program. Players are hearing a different voice each offseason telling them how to do something. That doesn’t build consistency. That type of turnover and shuffling on his staff has done nothing to help these players develop. I think Clint Bowen is the only coach that’s still in the same job he was in when Beaty was hired, but even his position responsibilities have changed so even that claim is only half true.

As much as I want Beaty to prove everyone wrong this year, there’s a reason why apathy has set in and it’s because Beaty has done nothing to generate any kind of excitement around this program because he can’t stick with a decision. He has built the foundation of Kansas football on sand and that’s why there’s little stability within the program now.

@jayballer73 If he ends up committing early, next to no chance. If he’s a spring commit, KU’s chances go up, but still aren’t that high. KU would likely need both Grimes and KJ Lawson to leave after this year, or there’s enough people in the front court that leave that KJ is forced into the 4 spot.

Garrett is a non factor in playing time for Green as long as Grimes is OAD. Garrett would slide into the second ball handler role which he is more than capable of handling.

KJ is the biggest hurdle to landing Green.

Has there been a case of point shaving in college basketball that wasn’t tied to organized crime somehow before?

@mayjay Questions wouldn’t be asked of the players in that situation though, they would be investigating the coach and what a coach was doing to be in a position to need to do something like that.

@kjayhawks I think we’ll see the World Wide Wes pipeline reopen for Cal. With WWW being an agent, he can funnel players to Kentucky for Cal again.

As shady as it will be, I think Self may need to form a partnership with an agent to funnel players to KU.

I foresee a lot of transfers among Vick level players at places like Kansas, Kentucky, Duke, and UNC. Those kids will declare, stay in the draft, get recruited over, then transfer out after they go undrafted because they were recruited over. Some may go back to their original school if there’s room, but that’s not always going to be the case.

@JayHawkFanToo It is technically accurate like I said. It’s just a very misleading way to to state it that does imply he won a B12 title which is why it’s misleading. Also, Durant was only 0-2 against Kansas.

@JayHawkFanToo It says nothing about Durant winning a title. Nothing in that statement is factually inaccurate, just written in a misleading way. KD didead UT to a B12 championship, they just didn’t won that championship. Again, misleading, but technically inaccurate.

@mayjay Why was 200k not good enough for DePaul? It’s DePaul, they haven’t made the NCAA tournament in 15 years and only have 3 tournament appearances since 1990. DePaul sucks, that’s why 200k wasn’t good enough for them.

I might go to the Baylor game in Waco, but there’s also a good chance I’m going to be taken to a Texas A&M watch party that day because they play Alabama that day as well.
