Roy is at the Bulls game tonight. Not sure why other than to watch his player from last year White. Maybe he's recruiting Chicago.
Just supporting Coby. UNC is done for the year probably.
Also. EL EM AY OH YOU KAY

@FarmerJayhawk is KU even recruiting him?
They’ll check in but I believe he’s going pro. Jalen Wilson’s injury might change their calculus a bit from earlier. We only have 9 bodies now so I’d take a flier.
@BShark would be similar to this year in that we could match up with absolutely anyone.
Big lineup: Thompson, Garrett, Agbaji, Silvio, McCormack
Small: Thompson, Garrett, Agbaji, Enaruna, Silvio
Death: Harris, Thompson, Agbaji, Garrett, Enaruna
Bill is the man when he's up against it. Last spring, this fall. He's incredible. You're too kind, @jayballer73! A little birdie told me it was "nearly wrapped up" about 3 weeks ago and never heard anything different until it was official this morning.
@Bosthawk a fringy OAD. If he goes supernova and scores 20+ PPG and shoots 45% from 3 then yeah. But I think 2 years a la Dotson is more likely as of now. Bring back Silvio and/or Ochai and we're loaded for bear again.

The good news is I believe we’re going to get an upgrade along the OL. Staff has really honed in on that spot down the stretch. I’m kind of over Ashaad. I’d love for him to come but we should be ok at RB if Dom stays. Pooka, Dom, Gardner, and APH is a good start.
Thing is - - IS Dom staying? - -he hasn't played a second - -not one snap since the same time Herbert made his decision. - - Is Dom even still in School ?
He's redshirting for sure, due to injury. He suits up for every game still. Whether he stays or not is up in the air.

@FarmerJayhawk let’s face facts at this point, Hakeem is the only guy worth a crap on the offensive line. It would be tough for us to get a whole lot worse. We may not be any better for a couple more years because you need to be recruited 2 years ahead on both sides. This group for their size and experience level have been probably the most disappointing position group on the team for me.
Losing 3 starters and recruiting nothing behind them will do that.
My bad fam. Bad analogy, point stands 😂
I’ll say this. If it’s not KU tomorrow I’ll be Ayton stunned

Well just read from the Phog, you probably saw /read this already - - BUT Daniel Cunningham from the Rock Chalk Blog & Co Host from the pod cast stated this:
Saying that he had spent the day talking to folks and trying to get additional reads on the situation and it all comes back to Bryce Thompson picking Kansas Tomorrow morning. - - Saying while I would never call any recruitment 100% in the bag BUT it's about as close as it can get. - -- -Then we get yet ANOHER CB tonight for Bryce - - we shall see. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Not going to take a blowtorch to Daniel... but he doesn’t know shat

Have a local kid here in Topeka, would of been nice to add him. - -Local Talent. - -Can't remember where he did verbal to - - maybe Iowa? - hell I forget.
Ky Thomas out of Topeka High - -HUGE NIGHT in the 6 A playoffs against Lawrence - - High won the game 56-35 - - -Ky had 49 carries - -378 yrs rushing and 6 touchdowns. - -I think he could of been a pretty decent addition - -oh well
If we can convince him to visit Fleck will pull his offer soooo maybe?

Sounds like Clayton to Colorado could happen as soon as today. Brutal.
BOY your just a real bundle of Sunshine dammit that SUCKS - -fricken Colorado? - - Seriously
Yup. He was there over the weekend and sounds like they sealed the deal. Remains to be seen if he comes back to Lawrence for a visit next month. In that case we'd have a shot to flip him but never want to rely on that.
BShark said:
Jayden still mad hoo boy.
Maybe he should’ve spent more time on school and less on Twitter.
Sounds like Clayton to Colorado could happen as soon as today. Brutal.
@Woodrow not sure. I know we're having to pull some 2021 IC's forward just to sign who we have committed. Could be some guys aren't happy about being asked to greyshirt or whatnot.
BShark said:
@FarmerJayhawk @Woodrow Ugh. Sounds like Stoefon was a moving on decision from the staff. Who is the second?
Yeah, Stoefen was injury-related. Tommy Brandt is the 2nd
Going to have two OL decommit today. Not great.
@BShark for sure. Small circle and the coaches haven’t been informed to my knowledge.
KU until I hear otherwise.
UConn for B-F
BShark said:
I'm waiting for playahs pick them we will know.
We good
Honestly Enaruna passed him so it’s not a huge hit for this team. But losing this year developing is big.
If Garrett hits that off the bounce... mercy
The NCAA isn’t pulling any punches. Gave Memphis a warning shot. They’ll unload the cannons on Memphis if the court allows.

Anything new/confirmed or working off the same info?
No updates. Which is good.
We good
Lol Illinois most to Nicholls at home. CC: Adam Miller
Bill, “I think we made easy plays difficult.” Exactly. Not like we played out of our skulls and lost. We threw our D game and lost by 2. Probably played a B+ game on defense and a F——- on offense. We raise the offense to a D and we win by 10.

BShark said:
@FarmerJayhawk What do you make of the Silvio situation? Seems like Bill is pissed at him.
Honestly I think Silvio is playing like a true freshman. He made some super effort plays but wasn’t that sound. 4 boards in 7 minutes is awesome. Good FT shooter. But missed some bunnies (0-3 shooting) and just never got in rhythm. Needs reps between Friday and legit games in Maui.

I'm not seeing the big improvement of Dave. You guys?
Oh I see it. Can’t teach his motor. He’s just a bit late on a lot of plays now where even thinking of making the pass wouldn’t cross his mind a year ago.
And we didn’t even have our best shooter.

Not trying to pile on Dave, but just thinking back to some wasted possessions in the last 3 minutes... illegal screen, stupid bounce pass to Doke. Clanked followup on Garret's miss. Love the dude, but not the guy I want involved in clutch time compared to pretty much anyone else on the team.
Career High and team leading 13 rebounds
And? If Self goes back to the 2 big lineup this team WILL NOT reach its potential. This isn't 2010. Our Big's will get exposed on d all season.
if you notice and or Heard Self he said that he thought Dave did a pretty decent job in the open floor. - - having 2 Big's - WAS NOT the reason we lost this game - - - believe that - -when the other team gets up 14 more shots then you because of your turnovers - -When your main Big man only get 4 shot attempts for the ENTIRE game and you lose by two - -IS NOT because of having two Big's on the floor -that's a pretty good AND?
100% YES ABSOLUTELY

Uhhh... we were lights out on defense... their only offense was our offense.
Look at it this way. If we turn it over ONLY 25 TIMES we win. My lord.
@BShark well we played the stretchiest perimeter team out there and made them look stupid all night. Offense will get a lot better. We’re going to win the league by 3 games.
BShark said:
@tundrahok I agree I've been saying offense is the issue. If we had a guy that could consistently hit that Marcus Morris elbow midrange jumper it would be a different story.
I think Jalen and Tristan are promising at the 4. Wonder what direction Bill will go in.
Bruh you posted the exact opposite like a week ago. We’re going to be a great team. Get Moss, get Dotson healthy, we’ll be fine.
This team is going to steamroll people once they’re healthy and develop chemistry. Calm down people.
Should be 4
approxinfinity said:
@FarmerJayhawk our perimeter D with Marcus and Agbaji should be able to get big stops.
Yup. We’ve guarded the absolute donkey ish out of them
Fun stat. Hurt didn’t score once we put Marcus on him. Dude can play.
We good.

So he is announcing and knows where he is going but is still taking a couple visits. Hopefully thanks for recruiting me courtesy visits. :grinning_face:
ya makes sense huh?- -the kid knows a week in advance where he is going. - - But yet still takes visits? - -makes sense - -if you know your NOT going to that School - -ya -- talk about a playa getting played - - NEXT - - or is there a NEXT ? - - Cunningham going to Okie State - - - is NOT GOOD for KU.
In some regard - -different things - -an accumulation of things I'd say - - I'm starting to see things shift some - -the balance of power becoming more deverisified with us. - -This NCAA thing has just kicked us right in the N - - - in so many ways - - mainly with our recruiting - yet even before this came up , started seeing the other schools in the Conference starting to get some more elite players - - used to be ALL KU- - these past few years - KU has regressed in recruiting - - power spreading out. - - - I think the years of KU dominance is over
Just multiple things taking place. - -Better Coaching throughout the league - - -KU and this fricken NCAA thing - -The looming NBA rule coming. - - Having Coach's on the staff that are growing stale - - - is Snacks doing anything worth while - or is he just smoking the shit and getting paid still?
Were swinging and missing on countless recruits - - why is that? - I think that's another reason Coach has changed his approach on recruits. - -you can laugh - - doubt whatever - but if you sit back look at the broad picture - -you can see it. - -I think we JUST STRUCK OUT again on another recruit - -Casey left standing at the plate - Makes ZERO sense - -if your still in the hunt, for a recruit who knows where he is going to visit other schools again but yet - no visit here - - not buying this crap about well he knows all he needs about KU - - holy crap as many un-officals he has made to Oklahoma being in state - he for sure knows all he needs to know about them too - -I' call BS on that theory - again - - -NEXT.
I think we've done fine in recruiting up until the NCAA garbage started. The 2018 class was legit: McCormack, Silvio (until he reclassified), Grimes, Dotson. That's an elite group. The 2017 group was solid, just Billy didn't pan out. 2016 group had Josh, Doke, and Lightfoot. Another really good group. We'll get back to our winning ways on the trail once this blows over.

Also, Cade is going to Okie Lite. Got some bad info a few weeks ago.
Playa got played. #TrustSlater
Yuuup. This was from a UNC person so that was weird. But he should sign early too.

I wouldn’t turn down free tickets and VIP treatment either 😂
For what it’s worth, this is going on everywhere. Both dook and UNC have a few games on ACC Network Extra, basically the ACCN’s streaming channel. Also have games on RTN, a garbage local station that most providers don’t carry but might be on FS Go or something random. Not just Big 12 thing. Every major conference is trending that way.
Woodrow said:
@FarmerJayhawk any reason to be concerned about Bryce taking a last minute visit with Cade to Okie St? Doesn’t seem good to me...
I’m not that worried. Think Okie Lite is bringing up the rear

@JAYHAWKFAN214 who are they playing? Hopefully a small crowd!
Does Historic Gallagher-Iba ever have big crowds other than for KU?
