@BShark Well no matter - -sure sounds all good I think I just wet myself a little bit so excited lol - -na just playin - -but really good news we could sure use the help on the front line - -ya sure he gonna be behind learning the offense and such but hey even if he can help spot Doke and Preston for bit - - extra body - -they take like suppose to be pretty decent rebounder. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 First of all an update: Official KU journos saying it's not set in stone yet.
So if it happens, he doesn't lose a half year, this would simply be his FR year. So next season he would be a Sophomore.
Ahh gotcha. - -This would be sweet if he could make this happen. - He says the NCAA has already approved this? - If that's the case what would be the hold up as to why it wouldn't take pplace? - -would it just be simply the Coaching staff? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@BeddieKU23 Well Like I said a lot of what your saying is spot on and actually I STILL feel he lands at Kentucky. I just think he has Kentucky written all over him, I was just tossin it out to see what others felt. - - to be bluntly honest , it would knock me right out of my shorts if he landed here. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Lol , got a kick off the UK board. - - UK fans wondering if it is going to be safe when they play their game in the Big 12/SEC -challenge - -they worried about their safety when they play WV at Morgantown lmao.
One asking if there is and it's a guy asking about the chance of being raped shot mugged or past hassled - crazy - asking others what it's like - -all kinds worried about their safety - -saying how much WV hates Kentucky and such - they sweating little gold nuggets - lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@BeddieKU23 Agree with all you said , the only thing is and answer to what you say - my feeling is - -that the distance thing is NOT an issue I don't believe - -if it was we would of never gotten to the final five or whatever in the 1st place.
I think he does have a sincere interest - the question being just to what extent? - -Is Dotson - -Adidas - -Coach Self enough to draw him? ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Much more likely that it is early next week.
Ya maybe so - -heard two different dates - -some talk around the 10th - -then also had heard like the 13th - -either way is A-OK with me lol - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@RockkChalkk I'm Thinking the chances that Vick leave at fairly good, I think as the season progresses he is just going to keep improving - -at the very least he will test the waters, and My gut just tells me he is gone.
Now on the other hand - -not that long ago I felt 100 % Doke was gone at the end of the year - -now I'm getting a little more of hesitation - not so sure - -he has ALOT of work to do , he needs development - that's not trying to put a knock against him but just saying - -still very raw Plus Doke may be more of a dying breed in the NBA - - a true BIG - as we use to see anyways - -now the NBA is trending more towards smaller quicker - more fluid - faster paced and unless Doke can develop some kind of shot - -fairly consistent other then a dunk could spell trouble just not sure. - -Could you imagine if he came back with what we have already plus coming in next year - - -Holy Cow. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Well the ladies won last night. - -Pretty well stunk it up the 1st set losing 14-25 - -but came back played well won the last 3.
Didn't realize Madison was hurt - last night was the 2nd contest she has been out. - -Showed a picture of her today in the LJW -stating looks like she has lost a lot of weight - -she doesn't look good.
Sure wishing her the best - -hope she regains her health for her sake upmost of all - Plus we really need her she does so many things - and does them well.
Get well Madison - -Rest and get feeling better. - -Not disclosing what the illness is - hope nothing to serious.
Also K-State suffered a major blow to their star player bad injury in the last set - -hope she recovers soon also - -Vogel. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Ok. - -guess this question will never be settled 100% for sure until he actually announces and or signs that LOI. So Gonna toss this out again - -Is there anybody here that think we stand a whiff of a chance at all of possibly getting Zion convinced to come play here at KU?
I know most including myself feel like there isn't hardly no chance at all he comes BUT - - - the ONLY reason I might think there is a tiny chance would be that he hit it off so well with Devon on the circuit saying he would like to play with him - -BUT he also is a very good friend of Quickley & then Little is trying to get him there also - -BUT pretty hush hush and even the analysts say they are just not sure & his last CB just came out and again it showed Foggy. - -Anybody think we have any kind of shot? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Garrett, Dotson, Grimes. Self really evaluating and closing like a mad man
So then as we are expect , Quentin commits with us - -then are we done for the year? - -Or do you think we still try to add yet another player? - -If we do what ya think we would be looking at? - -Seems to me with Grimes , Dotson, Moore, Garrett next year backcourt would be pretty much set -I'm just unsure for what position they would look after these. - -Frontline next year we will have De-Sousa - -McCormack both Lawson's & Lightfoot - -and it not a 100 % given that Doke will be gone - then you have Cunliffe - -either spot front or backcourt - Could play the 2 spot possibly - -or the small forward so which way would they go you think? - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Dam just read of zagsblog - - - - saying that these 3 UCLA players MAY get off lucky. - -They could get 3-10 years for shop lifting - I told you some of these foreign countries ain't no joke. - -BUT their case may be handled differently more likely then not no 3-10 sentence because of President Trump coming into China today. WTF lol.
The thing that rubs me the wrong way a little bit with this and just reaffirms about this guy " Daddy Ball " -said " he was waiting to find out more before he comments" - -saying his son will be fine, but this right here he says " Everybody making a big deal out of this - -not that big of deal "
That to me just blows. - -I understand shop lifting is a minor thing - - BUT is it - -or is it not still a crime? - -was it something that was against the law or what? - - This is a crime NO MATTER where you are. - -When he makes statements like that it's almost like he is giving his boy his stamp of approval that it's ok for him to do these kinds of things - -ya shop lifting today - -what tomorrow - -next week - -next month - next year? - - A Crime is a Crime - -is a Crime - -is a Crime - -I don't give a rats as how big or small - -YOU GOT CAUGHT PERIOD. -These guys when they travel Abroad are representing the United States as well as their school - Is that what they want? - - Are you fricken kidding me? - You feel the need where you have to steal SUN GLASSES? - - -sun glasses - -really? - -SERIOUSLY? - -come on dam.
And yet Daddy Ball justifying it - -sounds about right - or coming across that way - there is no justification for this - - you stole PERIOD - -now face the consequences. - -they are lucky they aren't in on of the foreign countries where if you get caught stealing - -they cut your hand off - -wonder how they would feel about that? Damm - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Like the sounds of this for sure. They both feel these guys are going to be multi year players. Big rough Physical players inside . I'm not really worried about them being really big time scorers inside myself - -if we can get them to put up 10-11 points a game maybe - -then 8-9 rebounds per I would be good with that. - -One thing this hasn't lacked in the past few years is the options of scorers. - We don't need HUGE numbers from them - just enough to keep teams honest.
Then Dotson - that's my boy - -so dam quick and looks pretty fearless, loves to drive the ball. - -We add Grimes I'm going to sleep really good.
Like they said looks like we sitting up for some long term success . - This is the 1st time in some years isn't it we have had this kind of early commit for some time right? - like possibly the last 6-7 years maybe? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@justanotherfan Ya you know some of those foreign Govt's can get pretty nasty - -but they knew what the hell they were doing when they done it. - -what's that old saying? - -if you can't do the time - don't do the crime -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
These three are being left behind when the team returns home Saturday. Being said they will probably have to be there for a month. - -Will be confined to the hotel until the Government decides what they want to do about the charge.
UCLA has been quiet about the situation because they have retained Council and have been told to stay quiet as to not to antagonize the Government. - -Daddy Ball had been planning to make a comment but was convinced to remain quiet.
The REAL question is, what's going to happen by School officials when they DO return - -said they have been known to come down pretty hard of these types of things at times. -See what this got those kids - -ALL over some sun glasses holy crap. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Looking off the ESPN site, ya they have all made their picks for the final four and Champion. - -They love Michigan state this year.

BShark said:
Markese's love for KU can not be measured plus Grimes is looking more like a OAD every day.
True on Grimes but the way it is looking I think Quentin is going to be playing more at the 2 then the Pg anyways so he wouldn't effect Jacobs decision as much as per say Harvey - - is this Green a pg? - -Moore still here. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Ok have another question , full of them today lol. - So rolling to the future a tad, - -We know Devon is ours 100% -- We know Charlie Moore is going to be here & sure looks like and sounds for sure Quentin is coming. I has been mentioned by people , even people here too as far as that goes - thinking Dotson is a 3-4 yr player - -Grimes at least a Couple of year player -Moore is going to be a 3 year player, so my question is - - Does ANYONE think even in the slightest most crazy insane way that with these guys being here that possibly - -possibly Markese Jacobs re-considers and decides to play somewhere else in 2019? - -just curious sincerely don't know. - -Plus on top of that - -there has been some talk recently about this Green kid? - -and then you have the possibility of Harvey? - -pretty crowded wouldn't it be - -again just curious -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@BShark So you thinking he will commit in the early period for us? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Really anxious to get to be able to see Garrett, I haven't myself seen him in live action - any action as far as that goes - - that ends Friday when we play our 1st REAL game.
Been hearing nothing but positive things about him - and I'm sure not doubting , just makes me excited to get the chance to actually see him for myself. - -Think he is going to be a really good player for us and hearing he is very multi talented can do a lot of things - -can't wait. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@JayHawkFanToo Have to agree. - -I lived in Wichita and the surround out lying area for 19 years, I know all about their fan base and Henry Levitt - -the roundhouse. - -Your right they are really avid about their Shockers. - -I was there - well not as a fan - -but I was in the community with good ol Gene Smithson & son when Randy was playing and Livingston & Carr - -they have always been very supportive of the Shockers - well there were a few down years but overall.
I wonder how it would of went over if we ( KU ) - would have played Wichita at the Arena they have in down town? - - Not sure what Capacity is there -do know they are holding 1st round NCAA'S there this season. Just curious if we had worked the same thing tickets 50/50 split and the ppv ? - -I know that thing would of sold out in a heart beat just like KU/MU did not even a question about that - -just curious. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@BeddieKU23 Hey thanks - --now there sounds like a plan lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Looks like - - Iowa State high light the Big 12 opening regular season game opponents Friday.
Iowa State plays Missouri - -& West Virginia plays Texas A&M in the Armed Forces Classic. - -Nothing huge but considering the other opponents for the rest of the Big 12 schools these are the two best probably.
Also FWIW - nothing huge but the score was a little more then what at least I thought it might be - - Texas Tech beat New Mexico State by 30. - -84- True New Mexico is by far no power - -but still that's quite a beating no mater - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Man this Quentin Grimes recruitment been crazy , I mean ya sure, there has been SOME talk the Grimes has already quietly committed , some people saying he committed on his visit - -some saying he committed of Coach's last in home visit -all kinds of this and that going around ya know?
But from my take this has been one a the very few where the inner circle has been kept tight as a drum - - -NOTHING that I can see or have been able to read about. I mean usually after all the in-home visits - - all the official visits after like 3-4 days a person might see/hear SOMETHING - -some kind of leak no matter how tiny but with this - - nothing.
I've seen some things people saying they are hearing something going down around the 13th possibly - -but just nothing solid. - -I still think when it's all said and done he is here, but again most the time you'll start to see SOME kind of CB movement - -some analyst making a prediction - -but there has been none. So in a way I guess - -that's good - -real good - cause the current CB still has us by a huge margin nothing has changed there. - -
Just usually there is some activity - -like ya know even the recruit making an announcement about when he is going to announce lmao. - -I'll just feel a lot better when he has actually committed publicly to KU - -preferably in the fall signing period - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Hmmm … we used the "no pressure, no diamonds" phrase here. Remember? The point being that until you give players game action, where there is real pressure, they can't develop fully, thus compromising their ability to be fully ready for March (er, Diallo). You can't get the diamond without the pressure. Nice to see KU/Self adopting it.
@jayballer54 Gotta ask, and curious, why do you think Lightfoot has the "heart of a lion"?
Well maybe not the correct choice of words on my part maybe, I dunno just really strikes me as a kid that gives it a 110% maybe that's part of his downfall if he has one - -he tries TO hard - -I don't think anyone can question his love for the school. - Maybe not the most gifted for sure -BUT the kid puts out all on the floor I just tend to get behind that kind of a kid easier. - - I mean ya he not going to be a scorer, but yet ANY points we get from him has to be a bonus -he hustles , grabs a couple of rebounds here and there, dives on the floor - loves to blocks shots and does - -he just bust his ass - -wish more kids were or would take that type of approach. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
