Man, did we whiff on Timme or what? That guy is so skilled. I think that we stood a good chance of signing him had we really pushed. Player comparison, Sabonis (the one in the league now, not the father).

It's not really a whiff though. He was class of 2019 so KU already had a senior Doke and sophomore McCormack on the roster. If you're Drew Timme, why would you be interested in Kansas where you wouldn't play your first year and then likely be a back up until you're a senior? That's just not something a top 50 recruit is going to be looking for.
KU just wasn't going to land a ready to play big man in the 2019 class because there just weren't any minutes available. Drew Timme was just in the wrong class for KU to have serious interest or be a serious contender to land him.
