Also If Silvio is not an amateur, I assume we vacate wins.....
It doesn’t matter if the school knows or not.
Better check these top recruits we are getting this year. seems odd we are getting a medium stack out of nonehere.
Also batestradamus has been talking about petro shoe company for a very long time.
They checked him, the NCAA checked. They cleared him.

I’m fairly worried at this point that the 2018 season could easily be vacated, at least the wins that Silvio played in. Interesting enough a source I trusted today told me before this news broke that KU maybe headed away from Adidas very very soon. I would be shocked at this point if stuff isn’t vacated, hopefully they have stuff on some Nike schools like Dook or we could be headed down real quick.
KU didn't sign their latest contract with them. Would certainly point to them looking at other options
Yes, her son is Jesus or something like that and he's a millionaire, well apparently just a thousandaire. Whatever the case they sure didn't hide their stupidity
If they bought that charger with the money they are some of the dumbest people
mayjay said:
Isn't there is a major ineligibility problem, though, if the players received payments? At minimum, vacating the F4, tourney appearances in 2017 and 2018, and all our victories in both seasons?
I guess it could be seen that way..i still think there needs to implicit evidence that ku was involved which seems to not be the case. Billy never played. Silvio is a different story but I believe what I stated above would be needed as well to implicate the program?
BShark said:
Also this means Maryland paid for Silvio, lol.
Don't worry we are still the a-holes to them
Another report alleging De Sousa is caught in this
After reading it it's all adidas until proven otherwise

I will add there's a chance that the NCAA allows undrafted players to return to school this year. It might be in Sec. Rice's report to the NCAA that's due for release around the end of the month. In that case, I think Doke really should return, but have no problem with him testing and even going through the draft.
That would be a great change
Couple nuggets from another place (Indiana).
On the Rome Langford front, a piece of chatter. This is just chatter so please keep it in that category. After the Jordan Brand game, Darius Garland told a friend of mine he's not nearly as confident in Langford joining him at Vandy as he was a couple months ago.
- Expect IU to have an in-home visit with five-star 2019 forward Matthew Hurt during this upcoming recruiting period
Quade Green is considering transferring according to UK peeps. Imagine that becomes reality any day

Has Wendall Carter declared yet?
Been in Atlanta trying to nail down an Agent. Only a matter of time.

Just curious - how many here think that we are still seriously looking that strongly at Chandler Lawson? I myself think we have backed off. - -Maybe a combination of things - -with Penny now being at Memphis plus on top of that is Chandler really that much of an necessity now? - Would he fit? with what we will have I think he would be on of the guys that would really have to battle for playing time - What ya think? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Heard he was done deal to Memphis

So if Vanderbilt and Washington leave and Green transfers its a team of 8 lol
So young!
There are rumors Vanderbilt might take a medical redshirt next season. Dunno if transferring or will stay at UK.
Wow I hadn't seen those. Good info.

Just looking at the projected depth chart for the 2019 season:
- PG: Dotson - Jacobs - moore
- SG: Grimes/Top Recruit SG - Agbaji
- SF - Garrett - KJ
- PF - KJ - Hurt - JRE - Mitch
- C - De Sousa - Big Dave
I actually think that works PT wise as long as Hurt is ok getting his 25 minutes coming off of the bench. I am worried about the Lawson clan getting pissed if KJ doesn't start. Of course, that could all be solved if SDS is leaving early. I would love to know who the staff thinks is here after next season.
It looks like we could have big man "good problems to have" next year as well. I think we get an impact wing and impact guard. NBA scouts seem to love Grimes. I think he impresses enough to go
BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 Should have stayed at Wisconsin. Would have been a star there.
Haggans is really good but he can't shoot worth a beans. I still don't see Kentucky being great unless Vanderbilt and Washington return.
So if Vanderbilt and Washington leave and Green transfers its a team of 8 lol
I'd be pissed if I was Tyler Herro.
that's an oucharoni
He could get a G-League 2 way contract.. I think he's going to explore every avenue possible. I'll be surprised if he doesn't and I'll welcome his return
BShark said:
Duke people still don't think Hurt leaves the midwest. I'm hoping Self's time with Hurt this summer seals the deal.
Ding Ding we have a winner!
BShark said:
I was being sarcastic. There is something weird going on at Nova and UNC. Hard to believe they just magically find the pro level players that want to hang around college.
Jaybate conspiracy?>
Kcmatt7 said:
@BeddieKU23 JRE is a multi year guy, barring a phenomenal season right?
I'll have to watch JRE this summer but I always thought he was a 3-4 year guy. I don't think he'll rise in rankings, probably end in the 30's.. Right in the wheelhouse for 3-4 contributor
jayballer73 said:
@BeddieKU23 Good points. Like I said I REALLY don't have anything to back my thoughts really other then just this certain feel , I actually think like you mentioned that OL Roy might be more of a factor also with him then Duke on this one - and I know he is one of our top targets hope it turns out for us. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
I think UNC is definitely a factor as well.
I expect this recruitment to have some twists- like the Memphis thing now. Penny has some momentum until he loses games (LOL).
The general consensus is that KU leads and certainly has put in miles already with him. We also stand to have a starting spot for him. I'm feeling pretty good with him right now
They also have a Juco Center coming in. Logan Routt played for them last year too, sometimes getting more minutes then Bender
I highly doubt he stays home. His brother is decent but the Hurt family knows Matthew is on a different trajectory.
Self is after this one like a hawk. Duke will be in it until the end as well and we haven't won many battles with them H2H. I consider them the biggest threat, however Duke people don't think he's a likely commit at this point either.
Indiana & UNC are also recruiting him as priorities. Memphis as you mentioned could join this. Kentucky offered late but they are kicking the tires.
KU just has to keep consistent and keep on it. This one doesn't feel like its ending anytime soon
BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 I think KU will prioritize Hurt over Achiuwa. I'm hopeful that Hurt commits early. JRE too actually.
tough choosing. Hurt might be the better College Player especially since he might stay more then a year. Achiuwa is that prototype forward for the NBA.. No way he's staying more then 1, way too good
I think Brunson is one of the Top 15 prospects in this draft. And I see him bottom first round in mocks. Laughing at DeAnthony Melton being projected over him. Kid didn't even play basketball last year. Mitchell Robinson too. Funny stuff
Definitely. He's graduating this spring. He's a rare bird. His dad pushed him so hard to be what he is today.
BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 They had a thread just last week over Dotson's comments at the McDAA. The actual hatred for him and his family was sickening.
@jayballer73 He was in last year's recruiting class but didn't qualify academically so he took a prep year at Brewster.
The internet is not a good place sometimes. Maryland's board is living proof

BShark said:
@BeddieKU23 @jayballer73 They also added Derek Culver who is immediately better than him.
I didn't realize Culver was at WV. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
He was supposed to be already at West Virginia but he flunked a class and had to go to Brewster for a year. He was really good for them

@BeddieKU23 hmmmm, Bender? - -he was getting some quality minutes interesting.
If Konate returns he wasn't going to start. I think the other forward spot is full too. Writing on the Wall...
You feel Konate returns?
I know Scouts are impressed with him. If he gets a combine invite he might stay in. Some scouts have said Jordan Bell going 2nd round and getting a big contract from the Warriors helps him. He's in the same mold.
I hope he leaves, can't stand him
Kcmatt7 said:
@BShark the fact that they have a 27 page thread on firing Turgeon cracks me up.
Not to mention how dellusional they are about who they could hire. Talking about Mike White, Jay Wright, Tony Bennett lol. That job is no better than any other P5 job for the most part. They must really think they are a Blue Blood type
They really want to be. The whole Dotson & Silvio recruitments really brought out how badly they want acceptance. some other fan bases we know get like that too

"selling him on their player development ability and their focus on winning, promoting the isolation of Lubbock -- the lack of distractions from basketball -- as a plus. "
Lol.
Owens old coach at Tennessee (his first stop) is in Lubbock. But I guess their water source really needs a change the way they react to things
One piece gone from Nova. Mikal Bridges declares. I see him being really good at the next level.
Should be a good game.
I don't know whether either of these developments will ultimately make the difference but I have been seeing and hearing that UConn's new assistant coach has a good relationship with Precious Achiuwa and they are pushing for him hard.
Another one, Matthew Hurt. With Mike Miller being hired at Memphis who has a relationship with Matthew and his father they could be getting into his recruitment
Michael Carter the 3rd transferring from Washington.
Maciej Bender of West Virginia transferring.
Texas Tech lands St Johns grad transfer Tariq Owens. Going to be a pain to deal with in the Big-12. Owens avg'd 8ppg, 5boards, almost 3 blocks per
Kris Martin who a few weeks ago decided to transfer from Colorado St to OU has decided to stay. Wonder if he wasn't going to be ruled eligible immediately..
Definitely he'll get drafted. He was pretty deadly in stretches of the season but it was easy for him to get lost on that Starting 5. Good thing he had a bad game against KU
Kcmatt7 said:
Don't think it was posted, but Trent declared. Not a surprise. My biggest surprise is that he is going to be a first round pick. Really underwhelmed by him the entire season.
You see him in the first round? I haven't many projecting that. Maybe teams will look at him for shooting..
Some recent transfer movement
Oklahoma signs Miles Reynolds, a grad transfer from Pacific. 6'2 averaged 13 ppg. Not much of an outside shooter but lived at the FT a lot. Kruger found his PG for a year.
Coveted Evansville transfer Ryan Taylor lands at Northwestern.
Colorado St's leading scorer Prentiss Nixon transferring. Sit 1 to play 1 type. Averaged 16 ppg, volume scorer
Coveted Florida St transfer CJ Walker lands closer to home at Ohio St. Good fit for him. Sit 1 to play 2.
Albany transfer David Nichols lands at Florida St. Out with Walker, in with Nichols
Columbia grad-transfer Kyle Castlin 10 pgg lands at Xavier. 2nd transfer to land their since Chris Mack left
Kcmatt7 said:
Is nobody curious how Bryce Drew went from Valpo to Vandy and somehow turned himself into a top 5 recruiter after two not great years? I just saw he was in play with Montgomery at the end still. If he pulls the Langford coup, my goodness. Just haven't seen anything like it.
It definitely raises suspicion.
Kcmatt7 said:
EJ Montgomery to UK means one of their post players is gone imo. It could honestly be any of the posts still on the roster. But 40 minutes to feed 6 mouth doesn't seem like it is going to work. Honestly, I sort of expect two of them to be gone. None of those guys is going to be ok sitting.
I agree there. Someone is going. Washington is going through the process with a bum thumb I believe. Needs surgery but they are putting off until after combine. Have heard Gabriel could leave to pursue pro contract somewhere. Vanderbilt is a wildcard. Would seem Cal recruited over him with EJ
Slater CB'd Langford to Indiana FYI..
The only other thing I'd like to mention is if it's not Doke taking those possessions in the paint then it's someone else. Someone else who doesn't shoot near 80%. Not that any of that is a bad thing to rely on others as the options are really good but maybe we are selling Doke short a tad. I don't know, I think it's all trivial as I think he's leaving to make a better life for him and his family but if he does return then there's plenty of work to be done to make him as versatile as they can. He has seemed like a sponge here and could really lock in on his skill set.
That KJ/Silvio Dedric trio looks very promising and might be a better defensive trio then any lineup with Doke could provide us. I have a feeling our rebounding and positional rebounding on offense for putbacks would improve as well which were weak spots for Doke at his size. I'm assuming a bit but taking what we know about all 3 the longterm benefit of those 3 might surpass what Doke would give us. Then your throwing in mitch and a freshman bruiser which gives KU a ton of options. Thoughts?
kjayhawks said:
Interesting that Vick has said that he wont hire an agent, wonder if he would try to be a grad transfer elsewhere. don't know why a guy wouldn't hire one otherwise, having a good agent could help you go over seas aswell.
Vicks mom said they would get around to hiring one
