      @BShark He is 26 years old.

      Right, it’s pretty crazy that he has eligbility left. Modern times I suppose.

      @rockchalkjayhawk I would be rather surprised if that spot was filled. Only so much $ and playing time.

      Yea on that roster spot? Seems weird for a major program like Kansas to not have a full roster of players. Times are changing i suppose.

      It is also more than it used to be now. 15 instead of 13. Admittedly it was always a big bigger with walk-ons. The last spots now are essentially walk-ons. Finding cheap players in this era will be important.

      It’s sort of more than it used to be. Before it was 13 scholarships with unlimited walk-ons, now it’s 15 players with the scholarships divided up however the school want to divide the scholarships. Current walk-ons are grandfathered in for the remainder of their eligibility and are allowed to transfer if they choose to and still retain that eligibility.

      I know Jaden Nickens wanted to play basketball as well and still could since KU has one roster spot open, but he’s not currently listed on KU’s roster so I’m wondering if Self is waiting to see how Nickens feels at the end of football season before adding him to the roster because I believe Self is now done with the 2025-26 roster.

      Right now, it sounds like he won’t be playing basketball this upcoming season based on what the KC Star wrote in their article on Ngala committing.

      What the hell is happening with college sports?!

      He’s a 1 year rental that’s essentially going to be doing scout team stuff. He’s not someone being brought in to play a big role on the court. I’m fine with players like this because he’s not going to do anything to embarrass the university.

    • RE: Bill Self back in the hospital 😳

      @Kcmatt7 said in Bill Self back in the hospital 😳:

      I wouldn’t expect the next coach at KU to be without a GM who does a lot of the recruiting negotiating on his behalf.

      Recruiting is not the role of a GM at the college level. GM’s handle the business side of NIL for programs that have them, they aren’t out on the road scouting and identifying talent.

      This is Rachel Baker’s (Duke GM) job description: In this exclusive position, Baker will specialize in helping players enhance their personal and professional skill sets, capitalize on strategic partnerships, including NIL opportunities, and work to support players in navigating the opportunities and challenges that come with being a student-athlete at the highest level.

      That’s her job description straight from Duke’s website

      The summarized version is essentially to oversee the non-basketball aspects of the program, primarily focusing on player development, NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) opportunities, and strategic partnerships. This allows the head coach and assistant coaches to concentrate on coaching and game strategy.

      Lexi Price does handle some of those responsibilities for KU as the Director of Basketball Ops for KU. Here’s her job description as listed on KU’s website: In her role, Price will continue her current responsibilities with the day-to-day operations of the KU program, in addition to managing student-athlete enrollment, housing, team travel, and coordinating camps and clinics. What’s missing from her role is the NIL/business side of the job which we’ll see what happens as the year progresses if she takes on those responsibilities or not. If not, then the next coach will absolutely need to hire a business manager to for the program that’s responsible for the NIL side of the job.

      Recruiting still needs to be the responsibility of the coaching staff and not a “faceless” individual.

    • RE: Bill Self back in the hospital 😳

      @bskeet KT is Self’s right hand man, but he’s not a good enough head coach to take over this program. If he was viewed in that light, he would’ve been the one running things in 2022-23 instead of Norm.

      Bringing in Vaughn is very much a head coach in waiting type move because he could absolutely go get an NBA assistant position if he wanted. He doesn’t come back to KU as an assistant coaches unless there’s basically a handshake agreement that he’s going to be KU’s 9th head coach. I’m sure if this is the case, this word will be going around recruiting circles as well to help minimize the chances of KU’s 2026 class bombing because we are in one some very good players with a real chance to land a couple of them.

      KU is going to have a lot of roster turnover again next year. Best case scenario, KU loses 4 to graduation and the NBA. Potentially, KU could lose up to 7 to graduation and the NBA. I think the number may well end up being 5.

      @drgnslayr The more stents you have, the higher the risk of more complicated health risks occurring becomes and Self is up 3 now I believe.

      Bringing in Vaughn now could be a program saving move because there is an increased chance Self doesn’t make through the season now and having a coach of Vaughn’s level on staff is going to be a big help for the program of that situation plays out.

    • RE: Had to put two pet rats down

      @approxinfinity This is why I say rats are lower maintenance than some cats. Yes, rats need social time to be out of their cages which for me was about 1-2 hours per day where I’d lay some blankets on my bed and let them run around while I did homework. I did have a pen for them to run around on the ground, but they were both absolutely terrified of being on the ground so they played on either my bed or I had them with me on the couch watching TV.

      When I was little, we had two cats. One was social and always wanting attention and to play which I was more than happy to accommodate. Cats with that personality are absolutely higher maintenance than rats and I will agree with you on that. The other cat was very antisocial and was pretty much only ever seen at meal time. Cats with personalities like that I would say are lower maintenance than because they don’t want or need attention for the most part other than feeding or cleaning their litter box.

      That’s why I say rats are lower maintenance than some cats because a lot of that depends on the personality of the cat.

    • RE: Had to put two pet rats down

      @rockchalkjayhawk Domesticated rats are great pets. I had a couple of male rats while I was going to community college at home.

      They are very social animals, very intelligent animals. Both of mine also died of cancer which unfortunately is not uncommon with rats.

      The pros are they are relatively low maintenance compared to dogs and some cats. Cleaning their cage and replacing the bedding a couple times per week was extent of maintenance required which took about 30 minutes total. Another pro is they are relatively cheap animals compared to cats or dogs. The rats themselves were $20 each and the cage, food, bedding, enrichment toys were probably about $250 total with the bedding and food being the consistent recurring costs which is much cheaper than dog and cat food and cat litter.

      The biggest con is the life expectancy. Domesticated rats have a life expectancy of up to about 3 years. The other big con is if they develop severe health issues, such as cancer or tumors, it’s generally not worth it financially to treat because they’re cheap animals with a pretty short life expectancy.

      I would absolutely recommend something like a rat to people with younger kids that aren’t sure if the kid is ready for the responsibility of a dog or other higher maintenance animals. It’s a much lower and financial commitment if a kid shows they aren’t ready.

      lol. Let’s see UConn’s budget before thinking that’s real.

      It’s a projected average per school and unlike the rest of the conference, UConn has an FBS football program and they still have to fund as well from their revenue sharing.

      Also, this money gets distributed among all athletic programs, not just football and basketball. Several of those schools also participate at a high level in hockey and have to share money with those programs as well.

      Ben McLemore was found guilty on 3 of the 4 charges against him. Guilty of 1st degree rape, 1st degree unlawful sexual penetration, and 2nd degree sexual abuse and not guilty of another 2nd degree sexual abuse charge.

      According to Google, the punishments are between 8 year and 4 months (100 months) to 20 years each for the 1st degree rape and 1st degree sexual penetration convictions and the 2nd degree sexual abuse conviction carries a maximum 5 year sentence.

      Unfortunately, it looks like Ben is in deep shit right now looking at anywhere between 8+ years to 45 years in prison.

      We’ll see what happens with the appeals here because Ben’s defense was centered around both him and the girl being too drunk to consent to anything.

      This schedule was already loaded. At least tbese are 2 historically good teams

      These two programs are trash now. Notre Dame has made one NCAA Tournament appearance since 2017 and Syracuse only has one tournament appearance post Covid. KU should make the championship game of this as there will probably be several 2-0 teams and margin of victory, points scored, and points allowed are the tie breakers and KU has probably the weakest schedule of any team there.

With all the great teams in the field, KU is getting Notre Dame on Nov. 24 and Syracuse on Nov. 25. There’s no reason KU shouldn’t beat the breaks off of both teams and hopefully get a top level team in their third game.

    • RE: My memorable moments

      Biggest game I’ve been too was one where KU unfortunately got their asses handed to them, unless you ask the NCAA who will say the game didn’t happen. The 2018 Final Four game against Villanova. That Villanova was so freaking good and among the best college teams I’ve ever seen.

      I’ve also had the good fortune to see KU in two top 5 match ups including my senior night game in 2010 against KSU that was not on TV. KU stomped KSU by 17 in that one. Sherron didn’t have his game game, but still led KU that afternoon.

      The other top 5 match up was in February of 2020 at Baylor in Waco. It was an 11 am tip and College Day was there. Ochai had his absolute worst game of his Kansas career that day going scoreless in 39 minutes, but Doke made up for it with the biggest game of his KU career going for 23 and 19 and leading KU to a 3 point win that cemented KU as the title favorites that season.

      Also, the first 4 times I went to watch KU play Texas in Austin were all losses including one of KU’s 3 losses during the 2008 title run.

      ****** With the recent House v NCAA settlement, things are complicated with roster size. It’s hard to say if KU has three more spots to fill, or less. Also, apparently there’s a new fule for “designated student athletes.” These are players who would have been removed given the new roster rules, but now may stick around until they run out of eligibility, but may not count against roster size. This could easily be ALL the KU walkons. ******

      May as well look ahead to see what’s in store for next season.

      I’ll try to keep track of the offseason drama here. I’ll keep this mostly official, so no portal projections here.

      But the portal window is: March 24 to April 22

      @Texas-Hawk-10 probably not a lot of KU football fans that would be upset with that

      I believe their FPI also has KU as the 3rd best chance to win the Big 12 likely because KU has a relatively soft conference schedule on paper. That was also true last year and we ended up with toughest conference schedule I believe.

      Mike Vernon actually just posted to Reddit. KU is actively recruiting Mbyia, Demir, and Konan. Says Oregon is the early leader for Mbyia and KU was interested earlier in this cycle, but Mbyia’s price was too high at the time.

      There’s mutual interest with Demir, but the eligibility issues with getting into UCLA few years ago could still be a problem although KU doesn’t have as high of standards as UCLA.

      ESPN’s FPI has KU as the 4th best team in the Big 12 and predicting an 8-4 record.

      Paul Mbyia has decommitted from NC State. 6-11, 240 lbs. with a 7-7 wingspan. Anyone know if KU is going to make a run after him.

      He would be a back up option for Flory.

    • RE: House vs. NCAA case resolved

      College basketball will have a couple of significant rule changes for next season.

      Coaches will be allowed one challenge per game as long as they have a timeout. The three things that can be challenged are out of bounds calls, goaltending, and restricted arc calls. If a coach is successful, they will get another challenge. Officials can still use replay for everything they previously have been allowed to.

      Another big change the NCAA is introducing a continuation rule for fouls similar to what the NBA has. Another rule change is that incidental contact to the groin area can now be deemed a Flagrant 1 whereas before it was an automatic Flagrant 2 and ejection.

      One rule that has been discussed and is not changing yet is game format. Games will still be two 20 minute halves. There’s been a lot of discussion about moving to quarters in recent years, but advertisers have been the big hold up on that as they would lose a TV timeout each half.
