I missed the mark on this. Heard yesterday.

@FarmerJayhawk I like our roster.

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in 2020 Transfer List:
The only player currently committed to KU that I can see not playing in Lawrence next season is Latrell Jossell and that's only if Self recruits over him before the summer.
I wouldn't hate it but it doesn't appear that Self is going in that direction. He had a lot of chances to go after transfers and has stayed the course. I don't exactly mind it either. I am not super confident Gethro or Jossell are KU level guys but that will work itself out in time.
RE Wilson his family right now is saying all the right things. If he did officially take a RS that's a good sign too imo. I think he will be good in his 4th and 5th years in college especially if those do in fact happen.
The big problem is this will screw the economy. We aren't seeing it yet but it will happen. It might be 4-5 years before the economic crapper is fixed. It's not like everything was frozen in time and magically gets to restart.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2020 Transfer List:
I still think immediate transfer will shake something from the current roster. If your Wilson how are you cracking the top 10 in the rotation? Just thoughts
@BeddieKU23 said in Game Changer at the center position:
Jordan Bruner to Alabama. Lol
Oats seems like a playah.
Lol. Also that's Topeka I know exactly where it is.
@FarmerJayhawk I enjoyed the financial one you did. I was legit laughing pretty hard.
@Crimsonorblue22 I was thinking eight and Jay wins again.

How many threes will this kid hit against us in the tournament as a RS JR for Nova?
Mmmm cathartic.

Offer might be coming here.
PSA Cardinals..
Could have picked a better AAU program to piss off tbh...
And there is the offer.
@FarmerJayhawk this is my shocked face 😯
Hell yeah!

@BShark who is that guy, you?
The village idiot in a movie. :skull:
Stuff like this isn't helping.
11am cst should be good
So happy for Udoka.
Aldi is wiping down carts when they come back.
Braving the Topeka badlands today. Walmart actually had Puffs Ultra tissue in stock.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Poor fellows just discovered politics ain’t beanbag.
My assumption is some of those are fake/satire but damn did I laugh.
Some are likely real as well but nooooo way that one with the chicken nuggets is legit. :face_with_tears_of_joy:
@Woodrow said in 2021 Recruiting:
@BShark wasn’t KU seen as the leader for Brown though for quite awhile?
Yeah I'm not sure what happened just relaying.
@approxinfinity said in The democratic nominee:
@BShark not at all. I feel you on the Kavanaugh comparison. However, there was no choice with Kavanaugh. Imagine if you had the choice between Kavanaugh and someone way worse and either way, it was happening.
I'm all for giving people due process. I just think it's shitty to be one way with someone and another with someone else because of Ds and Rs.
I don't think this coming up should make Biden pull out nor do I think he will end up in any kind of trouble for it. The whole Kavanaugh thing was just a show. Immediately forgotten and no longer pursued once he was in.
My apologies to everyone reading my posts.
I think my least (or is it most) favorite thing right now is the people that decried Kavanaugh but are now saying we shouldn't jump to conclusions with Biden. At least be consistent. But no, it's purely and only about party lines.
@mayjay I've been at this point before but end up always voting, fwiw. Just gotta get this bitching out of my system. :winking_face:
@benshawks08 Voter suppression is one of the absolute biggest problems. There is way too much to want to get into and unpack it all. Black people in Texas having to wait literally all day for the chance to vote is an issue. Many people can't afford to take a day off of work to vote. Other people don't realize things like this happen because their own experience is walking in, voting and being done in 5 minutes.
Wisconsin just this week was still holding primary elections with in person voting. Disturbing.
The benefit of the two party system is to make things easy for the ruling class to ensure who they want wins. I'm sure they would manage but boy would it be messy if they had to account for the possibility of anyone winning.
@FarmerJayhawk No need to rig ballots I would imagine, but it does seem easy to do if needed. Things like the Illinois primary results being put out on TV over a day in advance do give pause however. If I didn't actually see that when it happened and then the results later, I probably wouldn't have believed it. But is seems even easier still to just control the nominees, pump out the information you want for brainwashing via the TV and now the internet.
I agree Bernie was never winning, I've been saying that since he announced his candidacy. Much smarter people than me predicted Biden would get the nomination.
If this Amash guy is old enough to run for POTUS he is probably too old to still be in the Libertarian phase.
I'm still voting on other things to be clear. I just can't bring myself to vote for POTUS this time.
@mayjay fair enough.
We obviously can't see it happen but I believe that whether Biden or Trump wins, the next four years will play out exactly the same.
This about sums it up
Two privately owned political parties choose two candidates with nearly identical policies and then voters try to guess which will be slightly less shitty. Both parties hold primary votes, but neither is under any legal obligation to uphold the results if they want to go with someone else. There's no preferential voting, the system is designed to give a third party candidate the longest odds possible. They use easily rigged electronic voting machines. The political and capitalist classes hold near complete control over mass media and have no reservations about lying or burying stories they don't like. On top of all of that, there is quite a lot of outright fraud in manufacturing fake votes and suppressing or destroying legitimate ones.
So I guess I'm just getting more and more disillusioned with the process and THE SHOW.
@approxinfinity So what you are saying is don't vote. I'll be voting but I'll leave the presidential vote blank.
@jayballer73 We were in a strong position previously, yes.
It's worrisome but we know Bill will find some guys. Obviously we can't go into a season with Dave and Gethro as the only bigs.
@FarmerJayhawk I'm not worried about the wing at all just wanted to pass it along.
@mayjay Maybe they will have a groping contest instead of a debate.
Alex O'Connell ended up at Creighton.
It's America. The white guy with a groping problem prevailed over the Asian, the Woman, and the Jew. Shocks you to see it.

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Recruiting:
@BShark The guard I would love to pair with Thompson potentially in 21 is Kennedy Chandler. Played with Mokan and is very good. However I think his recruitment is just not the rabbit hole KU can contend in right now.
Think KK goes to Memphis or Duke.
Sallis is definitely the top priority in 21. I'm concerned about what we're doing up front because we'll need at least 2 bigs and I'm not sure we're leading for any as of today. But lots to shake out given these strange times. Info has basically dried up since nobody's taking visits and its a long dead period.
We are pretty much not getting Kendall Brown either from what I understand. I believe he was Adidas AAU but Sunrise being funded by Nike probably killed us. Virginia is a player here despite not being listed on his 247 profile.
As for bigs like you said it's harder to get info now. Guessing we can't beat out OG Wade for Anselem. I just haven't seen KU linked with many post players in 21.
@FarmerJayhawk seemed like a formality. Can Trump Lite beat Trump?
@Crimsonorblue22 don't look
@BeddieKU23 also Garrett wouldn't be around to play with him so it doesn't matter how he compliments Garrett. Don't think we get him anyway.

@SlickRockJayhawk said in Game Changer at the center position:
@BShark If David Mac has a career in basketball, it's as a step away forward. He's shown he has the mid-range jumper in his arsenal. He's definitely not a center at the next level. He knows it, that's why he's obviously been working on his shot.
He's only a center at the next level. You are what you can guard and he sure can't defend any kind of athletic 4. The guy with the most potential on the roster is Ochai without a doubt. Can't teach that kind of athleticism. At worst he's a bench 3&D guy, at his ceiling he's Malik Beasley who really broke out this year. Plus he's not even 20 years old yet (born 4/2000). McCormack was born 7/1999, so he's almost 10 months older.
Strongly agree. If Dave can't work as a 4 in college it isn't happening at the next level.
Imo
Maybe NBA: Ochai, Enaruna, Tyon
Pro ball elsewhere: Jalen, Garrett, Dave, Silvio
??????: Bryce
I don't think we have any obvious NBA players on next years roster. At least in terms of sticking long term. Thinking the three I listed at least get a cup of coffee. Bryce is the biggest mystery to me. He has a ton of skill which works in his favor but is he athletic enough? He will have a long basketball career either way though.
Our offense would be disastrous playing Haarms next to McCormack and then Mitch in that rotation.
FWIW, we haven't even reached out: https://247sports.com/college/kansas/Article/Matt-Haarms-schools-Purdue-Transfer-145770680/ ↗
I'm guessing the roster is set. The only thing KU could really use is a lights out shooter but I don't see one available.
Holy shit, Steak-Um with the hot fire off the top rope.
@BeddieKU23 could happen. Like you said IHCC plays more platoon style. We know Bill is the opposite lately and will play his best guys heavy minutes.

I’d take him over Silvio...
