@BShark said in Liam McNeeley:

One thing about this recruitment to keep in mind is it had been hinging on Furphy going pro. That had seemed like a lock until more recently. I do wonder if that may complicate things.

I understand any potential apprehension..but I truly think those two could play together.

Who would you keep for next year? • Mar 14, 2024 06:47 PM

@TYOHawk said in Who would you keep for next year?:

Keep: Furphy, Hunter

On the fence: KJ and Elmarko

The rest can go honestly

Well hearing he is already gone BUT - - - El Marko can go , I'll even open he door for him. - -For sure Juan is staying

To our teams detriment yes he is staying.

I think Aaron Miles, Russ Rob and Marcus Garrett are all the right comps here. As much as I love Frank he didnt get to a FF. All three of these guys and Dajuan did.

All 3 are better than Juan imo and it’s not really close either.

Liam & Furphy at the 3-4 might save my sanity next year.

Yep with a real, proper 2 guard. KJ to North Texas. :folded_hands:

LMAOOOO we can only dream bro.

@Crimsonorblue22 Comment I referenced was with Hanni postgame which isn’t the media and espn+….I wasn’t lying

@TYOHawk - I just don’t get it. His protection of said player over and over when he’s been atrocious in his senior year and not “scored when he wants to”….is just proving what recruits see that Bill plays favorites.

The 1 is locked in for next year and so is the 4….there will be a reason we miss on big time recruits at those positions yet again……

Coach told us the guys around Juan have to be better. Which is 100 percent true. But if you’re only serviceable when you play next to pro wings and all conference bigs…then how good are you truly?

The constant defending and pushing the blame on other players just shows Bills true colors. It is literally never Juan’s fault in Bills mind.

I thought I would never see a player beat out Jamari or Frank as Self’s favorite. But I truly believe Dajuan has surpassed them.

@Texas-Hawk-10 It is because our multi million dollar coach thinks his d2 athlete pg is the greatest gift to KU pg’s. It is such a befuddling scout that I can’t shut up about it

When Coach brought up Magic Johnson to save him from criticism a few months ago…I knew he was too far gone to save.

Misinterpreted something slightly. The Monday after Montverde's spring break ends, the 18th.

:face_with_monocle: the timing is lining up rather nicely for this.

@dylans said in Liam McNeeley:

Why did he pick Indiana in the first place? Close to home, coaches, family, $$$?

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but it’s my understanding they recruited him longer. Also his family loved their tradition. Like I’ve seen Indiana people say that his family’s favorite movie is Hoosiers.

@BShark you still feel good about our chances?

I think it's done. Indiana still needs to officially release him.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Cougar chat:

@TYOHawk oh yeah I’d nearly have a stroke if more than 5 returned. It’ll probably be 3-4

The 3-4 returning is what concerns me aside from Hunter.

@FarmerJayhawk said in Cougar chat:

@TYOHawk most of the team will be new

I’m praying you’re right my man.

Cougar chat • Mar 09, 2024 11:39 PM

I have no urge to run this team back. I’d take KJ back as a bench big solely and Furphy back. The rest of the roster needs a reset. I wouldn’t be mad at Hunter being back as well obviously.

KU vs UCF Game Chat • Jan 11, 2024 04:43 AM

I’m ready for the Dajuan era to be over. I’m just gonna be honest and say it. Good kid and tough player but I want a shot creating pg in the modern era.

Was Passmores commitment predicated on getting past IARP decision?

No, he committed Friday 3 hours into the visit.

@TYOHawk

If BShark says it..then it happened lol.

Didn't tell Self until later but was decided then around 11am CST. I won't have a connection this good on most recruitments lol.

At this point I’m starting to think you work with Team Thad or Combine academy lol.

Pretty detailed evaluation of his game

2024 Recruiting • Oct 12, 2023 12:18 AM

We got the two most athletic guys in this class. I trust Self to do the work with skill development.

KU staff is pretty good about this.

Yeah they typically let the recruits have their moment.

Once we get Passmore, I’d say call it class.

Ditto unless you get a Furphy late riser type of talent.

2024 Recruiting • Oct 06, 2023 12:53 AM

Passmore deciding next Wednesday I believe on 247 sports.

2024 Recruiting • Oct 02, 2023 11:46 PM

It’s no secret what happened

2024 Recruiting • Oct 02, 2023 10:47 PM

Only so much you can do..swoosh/grew up a Duke fan might’ve been too much to go up against.

2024 Recruiting • Oct 02, 2023 08:21 PM

Wiggs was thought to be a UK/FSU battle. Joel was thought to be a Florida/UCLA lean. Get em on campus and see where things go. He could decide to come or not but take the shot.

Flory and Passmore both gotta be top 10 athletes in this class

Agree. Passmore has a 46'' vertical. He also had an insane dunk on Flory in AAU.

For anyone who hasn’t seen the Flory dunk..it’s the first one in the video below

I actually just snipped video and converted that part to a gif for twitter

He’s gotta be our most athletic wing recruit since Josh or Wiggs honestly. Just a ridiculous leaper

2024 Recruiting • Sep 29, 2023 11:54 AM

He’s my ideal wing target. Last two wings Bill had with 40 inch verticals went in the first round.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 28, 2023 07:44 PM

@BShark said in 2024 Recruiting:

Yeah I'm pretty low on McNeeley. If we get him w/e, hope it works out. If Indiana gets him that's fine.

You know my preferable target is for us if we take a wing.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 28, 2023 07:14 PM

@rcjhdraft said in 2024 Recruiting:

Indiana fans acting like mcneeley is Jesus

And he’s really not that guy. I feel fairly comfortable saying Furph will end up the better player.

@FarmerJayhawk said in 2024 Recruiting:

@TYOHawk also don't write off Flagg

Honestly think he would be the biggest get for us since Wiggs if possible.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 26, 2023 01:54 AM

Get me Passmore next and I’m walking on the moon.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 13, 2023 02:41 AM

Steal Flagg by any means. Drop the bag Adidas

Hope so. I’m kind of getting the feel of Miami.

2024 Recruiting • Sep 11, 2023 03:17 AM

Trilly just said it’s over. We’ll see how it goes…would love having on the team. But the portal will be useful and I believe we’ll have one of Morris or Jackson on the team alongside Dajuan.

Lovely news.

Stuff is lining up with what I heard. Hopefully we survived the weekend remaining the leader.

I don’t wanna discount Miami at all but I could see him taking that visit to keep the good relationship between Team final and UM.

Get Bethea…push all the chips in for Flagg. Only two lower prospects I like to see us make a push for are Passmore or Stephen. Other than that use the portal

2024 Recruiting • Sep 04, 2023 02:36 PM

@BShark said in 2024 Recruiting:

Not sure how much it will matter but McNeeley really enjoyed the visit. Queen on the other hand didn't really seem to enjoy it or mesh with the current/former players.

There is a family member in our corner with McNeeley as well.

McNeeley would be nice. Queen is a good player but if we’re taking a second big to flory I’d probably prefer Stephen as I think he’s a good long term investment. Queen is better now but give me the defender to learn behind Flory.
