Can find always find better players. This was literally the worst offensive team Self has ever had and it wasn't close. Not expecting bad shooters to magically get better. I think Self is doing the right thing, find 2 to 3 guys that can shoot and fill needs and hope the additions make a difference in how guys play

Funny his ranking went up a bunch this yr. Tape is so so. He is a big guard that can create and shoot and defends. Not a really fast twitch athlete
He can't shoot. That shot is literally broke. Good athlete tho
Grant Foster in the portal
Rocket Watts- Michigan St in the portal. Portal likely to hit 1k by end of day
When he's done call Rocket Watts, now in the portal
Tamar Bates asking out of his LOI from Texas..
Intriguing name in the Portal. Jabri Abdur-Rahim transfers out of Virginia after playing sparingly as a freshman. Former Top 40 kid was recruited by KU a good bit. Guess he had an injury in HS that was slow to heal and carried over to Virginia with
Bennett has now lost both of his top rated recruits in back to back classes (Morsell and now Rahim)
Jayden Epps commits to Providence @BShark
I hate thinking about everyone of these losses. 2016/17 & 2013 sting the worse of the recent ones
D'Shawn Schwartz of Colorado in the Portal. Also Dallas Walton from Colorado. Schwartz is a bouncy wing that can shoot the 3 and defend. I would definitely like to see KU pursue if there's a need. 164 made 3's in his career.
Not sure what South Alabama is doing on the trail but as a no-name school they are racking up talent
Greg Parham- VMI
Tyrell Jones- Auburn
Charles Manning Jr- LSU
Diante Smith- TCU
Lance Thomas- Memphis
Portal approaching 1,000. For reference last year's total was just above that number. It's still March
No idea how you beat Gonzaga. Its not fair
Mark Smith of Methzu and Devontae Gaines from Tennessee enter the portal
Craziest stat, they shot 49% against Oklahoma and that was their lowest percentage from the field on the year. 49% for KU was a super bowl game
Mini mite Chris Lykes in the portal from Miami. Really small but very good pg
Yep I would take both.
Oregon St is terrible how did they make it this far
The brothahood loses another. Jordan Goldwire in the portal
No thanks
Nike pays well. Good for walker moving up
Yeah I knew he was connected to Texas but its still a crap move interconference, no wonder kids have no loyalty to schools anymore
Timmy Allen in the portal of Utah. SF was first team All Pac-12
Nate Reuvers of Wisconsin in the portal @wissox. What you think? Trade to the good guys?
AJ Bramah 20+ Pt scorer at Robert Morris headed to Arizona St. I don't get it
Wow Beard likes to flip flop.
I'll take any guy that can score, he scored 21 a game and on 50%+ shooting.

Hot tip. Wants KU, will commit if we offer. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/stanley-umude-1.html ↗
Yes, yes and yes. Watched 1 video. Sold.
@BShark said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:
@BeddieKU23 anyone good leaving Marquette?
Not yet. Cain and McEwen. McEwen on that 3rd school life
Brother also in the portal.
Jacob Young going for the 3 peat. Leaving Rutgers.
Several marquete dudes leaving
Damn but yes
CJ Wilcher- Xavier transfers to Nebraska
Stef Smith- Vermont transfers to St Johns (knew he'd get a bigger school's attention)
Braelen Bridges- UIC transfers to Georgia, big averaged 10 ppg.
Seldom seen Dudley Blackwell - Iowa St
RaeQuan Battle -Washington
Former 5 star PG Kristian Lander in the portal from Indiana. He can't shoot
All those names, wouldn't be surprised if we lost someone we don't want to lose. There's always a decision every year that leaves you head scratching.
I liked his size and he has some game, not sure how well he did at IMG but his ranking went up a good bit since he became a Texas commit. Nice 4 year guy somewhere was my thought since KU was recruiting him

Interesting to note if not already mentioned, Mckissic won't count against the scholarship count since he's already a Sr. Added benefit here
I’m not entirely sure about this. The guidance kind of makes it sound like the player doesn’t count only if returning to the same school. Compliance departments still aren’t quite sure.
Touché, you were correct. Grad transfers WILL count against scholarship limits
Enoch Boakye went from Izzo to Arizona St. What a weird kid
Looks like the ideal circumstances is 1 FR, 1 transfer at this point, until roster movements happen and we know for sure who's back
Interesting but he's a SG/wing really. Possible if we have one leave maybe?
Haha Shaka gone. Now Texas will get a good coach
Yes believe we recruited him a bit
No surprise here. Hunter Sallis to Gonzaga
More Portal news. Portal hits 900, only 100 off last years total
Methzu picks up Amari Davis of Greenbay, guard averaged 17ppg
Terrell Brown of Arizona onto his 3rd school with Baker
J'Raan Brooks- Washington- Pac-12 theme, 3rd school
Noah Locke- Florida- Good Shooter
Myles Johnson- Rutgers- Avg 8 & 8
shoppingforthebeststipend
Pettiford is a slightly more athletic Dotson. I'm good with him too
Casey Morsell of Virginia and Ques Glover of Florida in the portal. 700 more to go lol
Washington is a dynamic 3 level player tho
Big lose for OU and the league
