So I actually like the big from Temple that we are visiting today. He can hoop.

Here I found all our targets. Idk why the staff is even looking elsewhere !Screenshot 2023-03-28 at 12.43.54 PM.png ↗

John Q Phogger is that you?

2023 Transfer Portal • Mar 28, 2023 03:44 PM

@kuballin10 Glad you see it with him too. Saw many people that didn't realize how good Murrell is...

Who would want to play for beard….I mean Self or beard this isn’t even a question

Murrell would have been a stud here and him, juan and even Elmarko we could have went small and had some fun

We move on and pivot. We will get a guard it's just how good is the question. Maybe Khalif is a more serious option now.

Dan Dakich has just been destroyed by Zach Edey

Caleb Love in the portal.

Go get your 25 shots somewhere bro, just not in Lawrence

Missouri Tiger.

Love and Wheeler both get to lose to KU again next season! CHILLS!

It's like these dudes read the board and say yeah I'm going here

I have info on both actually. I also have no problem spoiling non-KU news. Isaac Traudt is a near lock to Creighton, though they do need room.

@BeddieKU23 I was at the KU UK game. UK fans behind me kept screaming to get Wheeler out of the game...LOL

Can't thank Self enough for passing on him

Could of had him or Ty Walker thankfully we took Remy.

We would love him at KSU.

@BShark Another high profile player I’m not interested in, UK’s Wheeler, is in the portal.

Watch for KSU here, as I noted in rumblings the other day.

@BShark https://duckswire.usatoday.com/lists/kelel-wares-nba-draft-stock-plummets-amidst-struggles/ ↗

Any idea why he struggled so much the second half of last year?

Not sure. I actually wouldn't want him, it's just a massive addition to the portal. If we are going to take a big I want a guy with back to the basket skills.

2023 Transfer Portal • Mar 27, 2023 04:32 PM

@jayballer67 We were. Imagine Arkansas is the favorite here, he is from there.

2023 Transfer Portal • Mar 27, 2023 04:22 PM

Holy shit.

2023 Transfer Portal • Mar 27, 2023 04:03 PM

We targeted the wing version of Cam Martin. Better not be serious.

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 27, 2023 03:12 PM

@BeddieKU23 Yes

@Kcmatt7 said in Welcome Elmarko Jackson!:

@kuballin10 I'm hoping for more of a Sherron Collins '08 role... Guy who should be starting comes in off the bench and gives you 25 minutes lol.

Depends on how we portal, imo.

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 27, 2023 02:38 PM

@Kcmatt7 said in Welcome Elmarko Jackson!:

@BShark The length and vertical certainly give him a higher ceiling. May not get to see it in Crimson and Blue though.

Donovan Mitchell-ish. A second year would be a blessing.

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 27, 2023 02:35 PM

Elmarko is Dotson level, maybe higher.

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 27, 2023 02:34 PM

Elmarko will be playing, lol.

NCAA NON- KU GAMES • Mar 27, 2023 12:03 PM

@Kcmatt7 Yep. I'm getting a WEIRD amount of hate on twitter for not liking this move.

NCAA NON- KU GAMES • Mar 27, 2023 10:56 AM

@Kcmatt7 It would be like us hiring Norm. Hate it. But also I love it because eff Texas.

NCAA NON- KU GAMES • Mar 26, 2023 11:09 PM

@kjayhawks said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:

@BShark I think KU having a core of guys that had been around for 3-4 years or 6 lol with Mitch was huge. David and Jwil were the lone top 50 recruits on that team.

Get old stay old. Thankfully, we are targeting old in the portal.

Transfers and retaining non-NBA guys :key:

@wissox said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:

Jim Larranaga is a bit underrated as a coach.

He's a really good coach and good guy. UM has made adjustments - UT hasn't responded...

This is why they can't stick with Terry.

And yeah, Miami was right there with us last year. Then we went on a banana land heater and the Miami players were SHOOK, basically quit running Jim's sets.

NCAA NON- KU GAMES • Mar 26, 2023 10:12 PM

Truly a special offense from this Miami team. 4 guys at or above 38% from three on the year. Would love to see KU with that kind of shooting. Probably only get to 2-3 guys in that range next year, taken from the portal.

NCAA NON- KU GAMES • Mar 26, 2023 09:22 PM

@kuballin10 We didn't have enough guys this year. That's what it boiled down to. Failure to develop for Zach and Bob was a killer. Last year we were a legit 7-8 deep.

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 26, 2023 08:26 PM

He is very fast and has BOUNCE. Not sure if I shared this here yet or not

Welcome Elmarko Jackson! • Mar 26, 2023 08:25 PM

@kuballin10 We'll see what they do in college. I'm just excited to have a guy of this level at PG again.

Hype season is fully underway.

I mean I think he's the best guard in the class so 🤷

Oh he absolutely is, he's special. The reports from the McD's practices are glowing.

What’s the story with Matas Buzelis?

He's very good at basketball.

Where’s he going? KU recruit him at all?

Oh that's what you meant. The NBA directly.

We did! Not enough money.

@cragarhawk He's recruiting.

Funniest KStater ever? • Mar 26, 2023 12:47 PM

@wissox said in Funniest KStater ever?:

Does he/she realize how many of us were pulling for their team?

I saw one tweet that was a retweet from last year from a KSU fan who mocked our NC with the "easiest path ever" taunt. Someone pointed out three times in recent years KSU has made it to the elite 8 only to lose to Butler, Loyola, and FAU. 3 golden opportunities to make the FF for the first time since I was born, 1964!

I did it better than any KSU fan if I'm being honest.

Also whispers it doesn't matter how easy the path is, just capitalize. Maybe that's something KSU fans will realize if they start making the tournament with more regularity.

@BShark - that’s good! Johnson gone too?

Probably assuming he will be drafted.

Nowell having another good night. He’s a senior. Will he drafted? Can he come back next year?

He has played 5 years THANK GOD.

FAU runs some fun sets

And executes them well...

The turnovers however

TOs keeping KSU close. FAU completely dominating the glass - +14. And, they haven't missed a FT...

Yep. Both teams weaknesses are showing. Interesting game.

Unless Johnson goes off in the 2nd half, this looks like FAU's game...

They need to get Key going for sure.

@Jethro It’s not like they had fake classes or paid players. Sheesh 😝 College basketball is corrupt af. and only gonna get worse with the NIL business aspect.
