@FarmerJayhawk

Interesting to offer after getting Bryce. Is this a real offer?

@dylans Bill isn't an idiot like Memphis. That's my theory.

@BShark he sure isn't playing pt!

Expect his dad to be really upset with Sampson. :face_with_tears_of_joy:

Grimes 0-3 from deep. Stunning really.

I’m just not big on Jalen.

Slow footed below the rim player.

Good news though, his circle realizes he is a 4 man so we aren't dealing with bad whispers in his ear.

I think he shines as an upperclassman stretch 4.

@Kcmatt7 1 year of him or 3-4 of Jalen.

Honestly a tough decision imo.

Basically a high impact this year, better chance of a natty vs more long term stability as we weather the NOA storm.

@rockchalkwyo yes!

Nah. Cunliffe suuuuucked.

People will look at his points tonight but he also has 6 turnovers and 0 asts.

Would have been nice if Bill ever switched to a 4 guard for real.

Next year is the year. Perfect roster for it.

@BShark well?

Zero chance we are even recruiting Kyree at this point.

Other Big-12 action • Nov 13, 2019 02:07 AM

@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah that's what I thought. ;)

I can't blame anyone for not remembering him. He barely played.

We have an open scholarship? No, Harris got it

We do actually. We were full then McBride quit.

Who do you kick off the current team for him. Maybe he's better than Braun right now but long term I don't like that move.

15 points for Evansville in an upset bid at Kentucky 👀

6-13 shooting including 2-7 from 3. 6 turnovers 0 assists. He'd fit right in on this KU team! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

@justanotherfan Michigan State was supposed to be great but then they went and lost to Kentucky who we are seeing has their own issues as well. I'd say I don't really see 1-2 teams that have separated themselves at this point.

Awesome! It should get better too. Foster started as a 3 star 0.9000 and a few weeks ago went to 0.9100. Not a huge increase by any means but shows potential to keep increasing.

I just noticed that Foster’s score increased again to 0.9250. Good for him. Did Gethro’s drop? Not that it matters really.

It probably did. Gethro is the lowest rated big we've signed since 2012. Thankfully he will not really be needed next year and he can put on muscle.

Look at how happy he is.

Welcome Bryce Thompson • Nov 12, 2019 07:12 PM

@Marco I think Wilson's best, and likely primary role is as a 4 under Bill. Marcus/Perry type but will likely take more threes than those two. From what we've seen I just don't think he is a guard/wing. Probably won't have the handles to be that at KU.

Oh and totally agree on Enaruna. His potential is enormous.

Welcome Bryce Thompson • Nov 12, 2019 07:10 PM

I like this kid already.

2021 Recruiting • Nov 12, 2019 06:55 PM

Kendall Brown. Don't forget the name.

Texas Tech has landed 5* Nimari Burnett. There will be a influx of talent next year in the Big 12.

Noticeable recruiting uptick at Tech now that Beard is there.

Making the finals helps too

Absolutely. Recruits are taking notice of his coaching acumen. I'd like to see them play good teams in the noncon now.

Welcome Bryce Thompson • Nov 12, 2019 06:53 PM

@Marco I think his potential is fantastic. I would bet on him starting to play as a RS SO then possibly starting the year after.

Did Bryce actually sign on the dotted line?

He is expected to. Tomorrow is the start of the signing period. All three KU commits are going to sign.

Muscadin is going to play,, alot....

No way. Probably redshirts as he just isn't ready. He couldn't get off the bench at Sunrise.

Ric Flair woooo

Welcome Bryce Thompson • Nov 12, 2019 05:31 PM

@FarmerJayhawk Imagine if only Dotson goes.

Would be a great roster to play 4 out.

Guards/Wings: Harris, Thompson, Garrett, Agbaji, Grant-Foster, Enaruna, Wilson, Braun

5s: Dave/Silvio/Mitch

Cryo-ice Deep Bench: Muscadin

@Crimsonorblue22

“I was able to talk to the AD surrounding the whole NCAA situation. He cleared it up pretty much, it’s not going to be perfect, but I trust the coaching staff and that they are going to do what’s right.”

He knows it's gonna be a bit rocky and he's still coming here. Hell yes.

Norlander is a douche.

@BShark counting on who leaving?

Doke and Moss SRs and one open scholarship. 3 commits. Math checks out.

Welcome Bryce Thompson • Nov 12, 2019 04:18 PM

Woodrow said:

Was just getting ready to post that @BShark . Sounds like Long kind of sealed the deal. Massive get for Self and Co.

Wonder if any higher ranked players would like to play with him?

Might not need any. We are technically at scholarship capacity right now.

But yeah we should probably assume Dotson is gone.

NBA talent. He was hovering in the 60-70 range before his PG skills took off.

2020 Recruiting • Nov 12, 2019 04:05 PM

Imagine you are KSU. You sign your greatest ever recruiting class under Bruce. It includes a player KU passed on. KU went after a JUCO and a project big. KU's class is still better.

He is in Tulsa for this I believe. Maybe he doesn't want to spoil it.

I will say that the big kid that picked Iowa St. yesterday had 100% CB for Iowa... FWIW

No one changed their picks at all leading up to it for some reason. Reading cyclonefanatic (name of their best board with their top insiders) scuttlebutt I knew he was going to be a clone.

A KU CB pick came in tonight on 247 by Kevin Flaherty. No clue who he is but he must know something.

National 24/7 hoops writer. KU grad.

Charlie Moore transferring • Nov 12, 2019 01:31 AM

Charlie shining in a ball dominant role. Problem is we had three guys last year that needed the ball in their hand to be effective.
