@wissox I just don't have a grasp of what is fair/what will happen. There has been such a large disparity in punishments for schools involved.
OSU got the book. NC State got a slap on the wrist.
NC State went through the IARP and should be very similar to our case (I would think). Resulted in one-year probation and a show-cause order for Gottfried.
"We specifically discussed whether or not we were going to impose a postseason ban, and we basically determined that we didn't want to hurt or punish the student-athletes that are currently competing," said Dana Welch, an arbitrator who served on the IRP. "We did, however, want the institution to take this very seriously, there were very serious recruiting violations here."
This is what I would think we would get. Bill maybe gets a 1-year show-cause and KT will get 3-4 years or something like that. I'm guessing there will be a nice big fine and possibly a scholarship while under the show-cause orders. Possible vacating of the 2018 FF (which would be kind of funny to see as we put up the new banners).
But, we could get the book thrown at us. Bill made an example of.
Will be interesting if he is able to keep the name Teflon Bill after this is settled.

Looks like Mike Miles has left the door open for returning to College/TCU. He does want to stay in the draft but smart to keep options open without guarantee. Will be a big decision for TCU
I really like the guy. I don't understand why he would want to go back to TCU (other than the love of the school). Really think it would benefit him to go to a place that gets him more eyes and asks him to do things not as THE primary scorer.
His advanced stats are just awful if we are being honest. But I really blame that on him HAVING to take some (a lot) of terrible shots. I'd love to see him play somewhere that let's him run and gets him more open looks. Even if it isn't KU, I just think the guy could really show out somewhere else.

Texas Tech lands Soph. Gardner Webb Sniper D'Maurian Williams. Averaged 14.5 ppg, 4.6 boards while shooting 39% from 3 on 201 attempts. Williams was one of 35 players in the nation to shoot better then 39% from 3 on 200+ attempts. Looks like a big addition.
Shooting was a major issue for that TTu team too
@Crimsonorblue22 what?
The only thing I'll say about JWill - 6'8 guys with plus rebounding who can shoot .263 from deep are a dime a dozen in the league. If he goes pro right now, he will either play for peanuts domestically or end up overseas. All of which are not in world-class facilities and arenas.
KU presents an alternative. He will probably make almost as much as the G-League would pay if he came back with an opportunity to work his way into the draft. To me, it is a no-brainer decision. But I get some guys just want to play ball.

@BShark Please explain "splitting CB and Wilson."
I'd say with 95% confidence CB goes pro (and is drafted) and we get Jalen back.
I'll plunk a :crystal_ball: on this.
Yea the NC always changes the calculus on stuff like this. I feel like it did that for the 08 team too

@Kcmatt7 Bill >>>>> Brad
We should know more on the Kofi situation on the 24th. NBA deadline, and he can't come back this time if he declares.
@Gorilla72 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@Kcmatt7 - IMHO, Kofi looked really slow getting up and down the court in the NCAAT, kinda like Doke his first year. Maybe he needs time in the KU program to lose weight and build muscle, as well as Doke-like skills. Diamond in the rough, type.
Not sure I"m telling this guy he needs to build muscle or lose weight. He probably does need to push himself cardio-wise. But trying to make him Doke isn't going to happen. Doke was a FREAK. Kofi would be special in Bill's system.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:
Duke just got their 3rd 5 star guard to commit to their 2023 class & 4th overall already. Sickening.
Nike trying to get Scheyer one early and keep the flagship steady. Last title will have been 8 years ago with a roster that had 8 pros, 9 top 35 players, and a Plumlee (61) on it... Duke literally has to be handed titles.
@BeddieKU23 The only guy I've seen be able to successfully replace 4+ starters and still be a contender the next season is Bill... They'll need to hit home runs in the transfer market.
@BeddieKU23 and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.
Zags came out of this little run with no championships and look like they’ll be down a bit next season.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@BShark it makes sense. There’s really nobody right now who’s replacing Remy. More competition is good.
Agree. Small guard, big guard (Mosley plzzz), a 4 if JWill leaves. A beast 5 would be a luxury add and personally I don't see it but some people on 247 and twitter really hope we do it.
Just throwing this out into the ether - Kofi isn't on a single mock draft anywhere. Obvious mutual interest. Drop a bag and make it happen.

@BeddieKU23 said in Fess Up... How Many Times Have You Watched It?:
I've rewatched the first part of the first half twice, stopped watching when we hit 18 points since I knew that was the most painful section of the game. I do want to go back and analyze some things like physicality being allowed on certain plays that ended up in non-foul calls and led to that run they went on. I recall several what the heck plays so I want to confirm what I saw live.
There is a pin down screen by Bacot for a Manek three that is such a moving screen I can't believe it didn't get called. Just one example...
3:50 in this link. https://www.ncaa.com/video/basketball-men/2022-04-04/kansas-jayhawks-vs-north-carolina-tar-heels-condensed-game-202218883 ↗
The first 4 minutes of the half Love kept answering. I didn't think we'd be able to pull it off.
And then you blinked and it was tied. Like a glitch in the universe happened or something.
I'm watching the condensed version rn because of you guys...
The deficit went from 12 to 1 from 16 minutes to 12 minute and 45 seconds. We knew all season this team could run, but damn.
@BeddieKU23 said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Portal approaching 1200.
Notable names- Marcus Williams (Texas A&M), Al-Amir Dawes (Clemson), Dre Davis (Louisville), Frank Kepnang (Oregon), the Saint Peters trio of Doug Edert, Matthew Lee, Daryl Banks, Noah Locke (Louisville),
Several of those guys I'd be happy with on our bench. Still waiting for a starter. Noah Locke would really be an awesome bench piece.
@BShark said in Next Year's Team Thread:
@Kcmatt7 the word before every offseason is that JWill will leave and he keeps coming back so at this point I really don't know anymore lol.
The two guard look with Bill is always nice but I wouldn't mind if we see a lot of what we saw this year going forward. 3 taller guys around a PG and a 5 man. Guys that can all shoot, handle it well enough, rebound etc... With the shortest being maybe 6'5''. Makes the defense very difficult to deal with, especially if you have a rim protecting 5.
@benshawks08 It's Bob as a primary reserve playing real minutes all the way he just has to stay healthy. Two maybe 6' guards in the starting line-up is a tough sell and Juan isn't going anywhere.
KJ's biggest issue is he is a 6'7'' 5 man. I tend to agree with the sentiment that if JWill is back, KJ will have a tough time getting PT.
I love the 6'5 switch everything defense 2-4. Especially in modern ball.
I think you can mix in 2-guard when you feel like the ball is sticking or you want to press a little more or the matchup is just setup so you can get away with it.
KJ is a mystery. I still think he has a ton of upside. But I'm not going to bank on him getting minutes. I feel the same about Zuby right now.
The only reason I don't think that about Udeh is because Udeh's wingspan and size will get him at least some run.
I'm really hoping Bill can pitch JWill to return. Would help next season's team tremendously.
There is a role for someone to be "the guy" next season. So I expect to get a very high-end transfer if JWill isn't back. Likely we won't know until after NBA feedback.
Terrence Shannon, David Roddy, Lester Quinones, Nigel Pack, Mike Miles Jr. are all names that I would be interested in as of right now. I'm hoping to get one of these dudes no matter what. But as far as timing and everything, it makes sense that we would end up with one of these borderline NBA prospects who are looking for change after receiving some feedback.
If I were to guess a lineup:
Bench:
- Pettiford
- KJ
- Udeh
Deep Bench:
- Zuby
- Yes
I think there is a clear role for 2 transfers. Ideally a starting guard who can light it up and the other a wing willing to take a bench role (think JCL/Moss). I personally think you see JWill move on. That was the talk at the beginning of the season anyways. Something tells me he is just ready to start making money pretty much regardless. But if he is back I see it more like:
Starters:
1. Harris
2. Transfer
3. Dick
4. Wilson
5. Clemence
Bench:
- Rice
- Pettiford
- Udeh
Deep Bench:
- KJ
- Yes
- Zuby
Wilson moves Rice into that bench wing role I think we need. But still leaves the door open for a transfer guard who can score. This, in my eyes, is the team with the higher upside. But I do worry JWill tries to do too much next season and puts up 16 ppg on awful advanced stats and pure volume. If JWill takes a leap this offseason and is able to play within the system efficiently like Och (though not to such an extreme, because Och was insanely efficient) this team is once again FF good.
Either way, one thing I'm banking on is Zach taking a leap. We were able to invert the offense to get big guards post looks with Dave at C. Imagine what kind of damage we can do with Zach at C spacing the floor. Would let you post up Rice, Wilson and Gradey against mismatches even more.
We are in a damn good spot though. Perfect time for Bill to pull 3 burger boys.
Feeling the sinking ship?

Sorry but it’s bullshit to stop play when we have the ball.
You really telling me Bacot got all ball there?

Anyone notice the moving screens on bacot every time at top of key? They’ve scored at least 6 points off them this half
He fouls 75% of possessions. On both ends
Such fucking bullshit Bacot gets to do whatever he wants and nobody can match it without getting called
We good. Just get stops and rebounds and the offense will be there
Wow they haven’t called that all game
Took 9 minutes 😂
