Anyone confirm yet if the Hurts & Stanley's found the Zion pad?? I assume someone has to keep the lights on

I wanted Wilson in the class since last spring. He gets a mulligan for not getting it right the first time.
I mean, the staff is partially to blame too. But...that's for another day. Party is on now.
Probably some blame but at least it worked out in the end. I wonder if Michigan just beat us to the punch and won over the family and that was it. KU isn't known for hosting underclassmen visits in the spring which Michigan capitalized on, got him on and it was over shortly after. I've been saying from time to time with the changing landscape in recruiting that getting Jr's on campus early can be an advantage

Now get his ass on campus. He already missed a scrimmage.
He better score 20 in the next one to make up for it
That boss isn't getting a Christmas card.
I'm sure we could go through old posts from last spring about us gushing over Wilson at the time.

Depth. Size. Shooters.
It's like the exact opposite of last season.
Can't upvote this post enough

Wilson to KU is official
Told you guys not to worry.
I wasn't until @HighEliteMajor sources were saying Globetrotters
Sorry, deleted it because this one was first
Wilson to KU is official
Welcome the young man.
And maybe looking for a place to play earlier.

I'm not 100% sure. Could be as simple as they like Wur more.
Less of a project? Haven't had the chance to dive into Wur
If Jalen Wilson pops for KU today, KU will have the 15th ranked class in the Country.
This will be tops in the Big-12 narrowly beating Texas Tech & Texas.
Not a bad finish after what has happened.
Unc has no chance
Great news
BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 I know KU was in there pretty good and I was hoping he would be a Jayhawk. Still pretty early but obviously something cause that CB train.
I agree he would have been a solid option for KU as well. We know we are going to need bigs.
BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 Money probably. But he has ties to every main contending school on his list except KU. I believe he is from the WVU area originally. Still has family there.
Thx I didn't dig to find if he visited or anything. Would be a quality signing for them if he does go there
Isiah Cottrell is trending to West Virginia. Wonder what that's about
Marco said:
@BeddieKU23 We were pre-season #1 this past season, unlike many, though, I didn't believe we were. But this team? I think (pre-season rankings be damned!) that we can finish as Number One.
Finishing #1 isn't out of the question. The ceiling of the team has improved despite recruiting misses. This isn't Self's best roster talent wise but there's a good chance the chemistry will be a lot better then last years squad and that could make all the difference. A lot of things need to go right.
I heard Bosnia was option 1 or 2. God's gift if waiting for him

If we land Wilson on Wednesday we all owe Spring Bill a beer.
Agreed, however I think he should buy us all a round as well for the roller coaster
BShark said:
Playa Daniels changed his CB pick back to KU.
hopefully that means the word is out! I think it does
Self can go 8 deep without even playing a freshman. In today's landscape that's almost unheard of.
This is great to have for competition and options. It's clear he's the type of kid that can get his own shot, can make perimeter plays (make 3's) and has plenty of experience playing in the Big-10. He can push Marcus & Ochai.
There will be games we are going to need what Moss can provide. Hopefully he's healthy, fits in, learns like a sponge and is a quality option for this team.
That was quick. Goodman did know something after all, surprising
BShark said:
Great article on the kc star about him. Can't link on mobile. So many highlights including picking his major. We really got a keeper here folks.
Yes he is extremely likable. Have a feeling he goes down as someone we talk about for years to come
Whoever convinced him to go to Nevada with all those transfers and seniors they had was hell bent on cratering his OAD potential and it happened

I see its stumpy land for Brown, go figure
Oh yeah my bad, thought I mentioned Arizona but I definitely did not. Really weird situation.
Been a weird kid since his recruitment
I see its stumpy land for Brown, go figure
BShark said:
Jordan Brown to Nevada. If you can't get on the court at Nevada, best to go to the Pac 12.
Where is he going?
KUSTEVE said:
If Moss signs with us, I'm taking full credit for it. All my whining about not offering him appears to have paid off.
I'll allow it, you did run this bandwagon

@BeddieKU23 Well I won't say no to a 40% 3-point shooter with a lot of experience, but Walker and Bilau would be nice too.
I'd rather have Walker and Bilau for those last 2 spots with Wilson but as you said 40% 3 point shooters dont grow on trees especially after the line was moved back
KU only has 10 scholarship players right now, why wouldn't KU take all 3 if all 3 wanted to pop for KU?
I'd rather have Walker, Wilson and Bilau for 2019 but if Walker to 19 is fading and we can take another I'm all for
Boom

@BeddieKU23 42.1% from 3 last season and 39.1% career. Might not always score a lot but will do his job to space the floor for us.
Streaky shooter. Almost 100 starts under his belt. Iowa fans werent sad he left though. I dont think Goodman knows anything. If we need a body after Wilson decides why not. He has a lot of experience

Kerry Blackshear and Arkansas rumors heating up... per Slater
Why?
Matt Tait retweeted it.. saying monster news
So when is he popping for Duke Lol
Isiah Moss reopened his recruitment. Goodman is trying to say all signs point to KU
Hyland ended up at VCU. Have a feeling he'll be good in a few years. Big pick up for them
I agree moving the line back puts a premium on guys with unlimited range. I think this may help the most for KU with opponents who have stretch bigs. Most bigs that stretch it normally are not the natural shooters of the world, its usually something developed. It could negate some schematic advantage teams would try and use against KU- the Villanova's of the world etc.
Great off-season post btw.
I don't get the feeling he's going back to Michigan at all. They burned bridges not telling him the coach was leaving. Not only did his coach leave, his lead recruiter did as well.
Anything can happen. We see parents being in control of the situation more then the kids all the time and recently that seems to be a theme with kids KU is recruiting.
We'll see, I think we've been snake bite too many times in this recruiting cycle to feel confident in anyone coming here which is what I'm sensing from your comments. Hopefully a decision is made soon and its a positive one
FYI North Carolina insiders feel Jalen Wilson will pick KU after his visit to UNC..
To the International Line.
Let's discuss this. Moving the 3 point line back should benefit a team such as KU which doesn't have a team full of shooters at the moment. What impact is everyone expecting this to have for the game and for KU's short and long term?
