Thinking about how the Juan/Hunter back court would just lock everyone up.

@BShark wow was on Pack.
That's for two years so 400k per year. We don't publicize but from my understanding, less than some of our guys got. Starters, to be clear.
The game at Hilton would be AMAZING if this happens. holy moly
@Crimsonorblue22 Going to visit! With UNC basically pulling their offer one could say we are the front runner...
Tyrese Hunter SZN
Well then.
@approxinfinity Kentucky fans in my replies will always catch these :raised_fist:
@Crimsonorblue22 :man_cook: :kiss_mark:
Dropped a hot one boys @BeddieKU23 @Kcmatt7 @FarmerJayhawk

Marcus Carr returns to be Juan's bitch again. Jeesh
Fixed
@BigBad said in What no one wants to mention Jay Wright retiring?:
"Lost the edge" yet still makes a final four. He was at the top of his game for sure.
He was one of the best. We didn't "solve" Nova. They played a great game, basically shot similar to 2018. We shot OUT OF OUR MINDS thank god lol.
Jay said he just lost the "edge" to coach. Nova tried to talk him out of it but him and his wife decided it was time. This is all straight from Jay per Zags.
Recruiting at North Carolina takes care of itself.
@Crimsonorblue22 i imagine it would depend on the contract
@Crimsonorblue22 I think he'd need a better offer than gleague. He wants to go pro somewhere though. His dream.
@Crimsonorblue22 can come back. Wouldn't count on it based on what I heard tonight. Seems like the interviews happened today/tonight.
3 transfers out is still my guess. With what I was told on who we are targeting, they are recruiting as if Jalen is leaving.
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah. He and CB would be dumb not to.
Yeah JWill signed with an agent. But apparently you can do that now and come back if it's an NCAA certified agent? Lol. Probably gone oh well.
Might have jumped the gun on JWill returning, my bad.
@Crimsonorblue22 Figured that was self explanatory. He didn't really go into details but I've talked about it here before. He was disappointed in his draft feedback which led to the dui etc Early in the season he was focused way too hard on that instead of just trying to help the team win. That's why he was tight as hell and shot so poorly.
@Crimsonorblue22 Jalen is a good kid. Sounds like NIL is a real game changer. He uh, dropped some hints and mentioned how guys no longer have to rush to the NBA cause they are getting more than gleague in college.
Looking like tomorrow is judgment today. Or I guess more appropriately today/tonight and then put out publicly tomorrow.
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Next Year's Team Thread:
@BShark it wouldn't open for me. Dark place after his dui? Hope u took notes.
Jalen is still talkin. It's been good stuff. He talked about being in a dark place before the season but this year changed his life for the better.
@Bosthawk it's been a hot topic, but in a thread that already existed. Which admittedly is confusing.
Bizarre tweet from CJ. I find it hard to imagine we don't see some transfers out.
@BeddieKU23 We are involved.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Ricky Coucil IV from Wichita St in the portal. Also testing the draft waters.
WOULD TAKE
@Crimsonorblue22 yeah just click the spaces link when it goes live
no
As expected. Believe Ohio State and Seton Hall are the front runners however.

@NormRoberts said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Just because Mj Rice is next level strong already doesn't mean he cant shoot. He can shoot. As Self described him when he commited he is a Pure Scorer. He was at Oak Hill putting up numbers on a sorry Oak Hill teamthen transfer to Prolific Prep. Gradey is a Pure Shooter who can go to the NBA right now and be a above 40% shooter but have to work on Ball Handling more to be the complete package
Not a shot at MJ and his skill, but looking at the bigger picture for team needs. 3 pt shooting stands out as a need to me, thatβs all.
There is a 41% career 3 point shooter over three years in college on mostly tough step back looks as the primary scoring option for his team that is interested in KU.
We pray Bill looks past the lack of athleticism and that he comes out of the draft.
@NormRoberts said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Mj is from North Carolina only reason Duke and UNC didn't offer and other schoolswas because he Torn his ACL his Sophomore year but bounced back from it. But schools was still hesitant but Not Self because we need players
Also the pro stuff. We gambled and it paid off.
Scotty Middleton dropping his top 5 in an hour. Would be a shock if KU isn't on it.
@BeddieKU23 said in Next Year's Team Thread:
Jalen is having a 5pm Twitter Spaces today. Announcement? @BShark
Probably worth tuning into.
@Kcmatt7 My guess right now is Harris, Transfer, Rice, JWill, Zach/Transfer
Maybe Dick ends up starting over Rice.
@Kcmatt7 Gonna run that shit back if we get Hunter. His steal rate is nuts.
@Kcmatt7 I'm digging deeper, but I'm a history buff. They should honestly edit the thread title though...
@Kcmatt7 We have a starting 4 secured, so I don't think we even portal for one honestly.
My guess...1 scoring small guard, one big guard (pref scorer), one big.

I know I shouldn't enjoy this so much. This is like xmas for me!

So this title has other implications. :skull:
We are NOT interested in Emoni Bates.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Coveted big Utah Valley transfer Fardaws Aimaq down to 5 schools including Texas & Texas Tech. Gonzaga, Iowa & Washington the other 3.
Thought he would do better ngl. Guess Gonzaga is up there.

Shaedon Sharpe who was the #1 recruit in the 22 class, enrolled at Kentucky for the Spring Semester and will now enter the Draft and stay in.
Good griefLOL I can only imagine the meltdown UK fans are having.
It's going well.
@BeddieKU23 said in EMPEROR OF BASKETBALL:
Nova already hired Wright's replacement so sounds like this was in the works.. There may not be attrition since the new coach was his former assistant
Yeah this was planned. Probably sent him off for HC experience as part of the plan.
Jeremy Case is on an extremely similar path, just in the earlier stages of it. Kyle started as a video coordinator for Jay, lol.

@rockchalkwyo Nope. Legit retirement. Going into broadcasting and enjoying time with his family.
NBA ready tbh
@Kcmatt7 DESERVED
