Bossi thinks KU is the early favorite here. Makes sense on data available

Another video to get acquainted, which I would recommend.
Right he decided that though, he was not forced out or recruited over.
Ochai 100% has a spot on the team if he wants it, Bill would figure something out.
Dave can and should get all the minutes he can handle.
Dave is the best 5 on the roster next year.
Gonna be a decent back-up 5 for us.
@approxinfinity said in Remy to Kansas:
@drgnslayr the less athletic people tend to be gigantors, ex. Z-Bo
That and they are usually tremendously skilled too. Zach definitely qualifies there as well, and Jokic comes to mind.
Kansas: “Coach Bill Self reached out to me after reopening my recruitment and that meant a lot to me since he's the head coach and a legendary coach. They have a great coaching staff and they told me they love how I play and would love for me to be a part of their program. I watch them a lot and I feel like their guards control the pace of the game well but can also mix it up and get up the floor. They also use a lot of ball screens and let their guards play a lot.”
@RockkChalkk Can't have 14. Imagine Ochai has informed the staff he is leaving with the JCL take.
@Jhawk69 It would be 14
Remy, Yesufu, Harris, Pettiford, Cuffe, JCL, Braun, Och, Jalen, KJ, Zach, Curry, Dave, Cam
@Jhawk69 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
@Texas-Hawk-10 I see. But isn't it true the Mitch doesn't count against our scholly total?
This is correct. Players taking advantage of the extra year that stay at their original school do not count. The key distinction is they have to stay at the original school. So guys like Remy and JCL will be taking up a scholarship against the 13 count.
@jayballer67 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
With the announcement of Lands coming gives me concern about Yesufu reconsidering. - -who would you rather have Yesufu - -OR Lands?
They play different positions.
@BeddieKU23 Easily. ISU lost the two good players off their 2 win team...
@Kcmatt7 Gotta replace Ochai I would guess.
He is 25 years old still playing college hoops lol
Bill says: BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE
I don't think Zach will be ready defensively next year, especially against smaller and quicker opposition. Not exactly Jalen's forte either but Jalen is a much better option next year.
@Kcmatt7 said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:
@BShark "Re-offered?"
Did we pull his past offer?
Just establishing that they are still interested after his de-commitment from Providence. He's gonna get a bag lol.
Illinois and TAMU as well. Gonna be a battle but it is one KU can win.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Remy to Kansas:
@BShark I meant good enough to leave.
Believe he will leave regardless of NBA feedback after next season. He really wants to go pro even if it doesn't end up being the NBA.
@Crimsonorblue22 We don't have another starting caliber player behind Jalen at the 4. If he somehow left and there wasn't a strong ass replacement that would drastically hurt the team. Can't play Martin or Zach next to Dave and KJ isn't ready.
So uh...yeah...
@justanotherfan I like the fact that he gives us a guy to take some shots away from Dave. Get Dave down to a more normal usage rate. Having a couple fast guards, one that can really shoot it and the other the defense has to at least respect will open things up for everyone. I think the defense will be worse but the offense vastly improved.
Cyclone fans are struggling too @FarmerJayhawk
"I was told as soon as he went into the portal TJ wouldn't be interested even if we had room from someone that would know so I'll trust TJ and others on this"
"There's a lot of red flags about him that aren't public. I'll leave it at that"
Remy is definitely a "no, no, YESSSS" player.
@Kcmatt7 said in Remy to Kansas:
I really thought we were going to end up having to watch Wheeler play 25 mpg there for a minute...
Crisis averted.
Flashback to last Tuesday: Remy Martin enters the portal, suddenly the Wheeler smoke shifts from KU to UK.
But sure Kentucky fans, Cal "stole him" from Bill.
There are always unexpected departures.
Next year will be Jalen's last at KU, to be clear.
@BeddieKU23 He's too good for Providence man
:)
@Texas-Hawk-10 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
Remy makes KU a preseason top 5 program next season assuming Agbaji and Wilson come back.
Would bet on both returning as things stand.
@BShark said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
Reason to believe Remy Martin is the new top target.
Reasons were in fact correct. Some already knew. :crystal_ball:
@DanR Goes in more often, however.
@Kcmatt7 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
@BShark bagley next 😎😎😎
Believe we would genuinely be the best team in the country if that somehow happened.

See where Tre Mitchell from U Mass listd his top 6. - - Of Course Texas is one of his final Six. - -Beard killing it
Mitchell is going wherever his mom's bf/former UMass AC Tony Bergeron lands.
Gotcha buddy , fully understand. - Hey on a brighter note for us Famer - - How about that Remy Martin huh ? - make your day a little better ? - -sure the hell did mine. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Hell yeah. I was having the Monday-ist Monday ever and this really cheered me up!
Right there with ya there buddy. Sweet get. - Wonder if this effects Harris or any of our other PG pick ups ?
Nah. Just a one year stopgap
That's one of many great parts of this move. Ease in Bobby but he can see he has a path the year after to a bigger role.
Yep just one year left and only because of the covid free year, as he did play 4 years at ASU.
@jayballer67 “I just want to be able to play for a historic program,” Martin said. “I’m very excited to play for Coach Self and get my master’s degree. I’m hoping to interact with the fans and play in such a historic place like Phog Allen Fieldhouse.”
....
I can’t (wait) to play with those guys,” Martin said. “They have a history of playing deep in the tournament. I’m excited to see what we can do.”
Martin, Yesufu, Och/CB, Jalen, Dave
Helluva starting 5.
DOLLAR BILL IS BACK
We should just give the spot to Remy Martin's dad.
@Marco can he recruit? That's all I care about lol.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Recruiting:
At some point Self is going to have to get assistant coaches that can recruit in this new era..
It's not all of the problem right now but losing Snacks did hurt.
Newest Jayhawk
6'9''235 pounds out of Cathedral Catholic in San Diego. Had a few offers but is choosing to walk-on at KU. Family originally from Lawrence.
KU mentioned as a school the PAC wants to poach.
@Crimsonorblue22 Howard has been looking to move up, he wants to be a head coach. That's good though, you want assistants with aspirations.
