@JAYHAWKFAN214 I don't want him to, but I'm not so sure. Doesn't his brother play at Mizzou? I think he's still there, right? And didn't one of his parents go there too? I'm a Braun fan and don't him to go anywhere, just saying.

Parker transferred to UC Santa Clara.

I'm right there with you on that. I don't want Braun going anywhere either. - -Seemed like he had decent Fr year - -struggled last yr , lost confidence in his shot. - -I can't count how many times he turned down wide open 3's towards the end he wasn't even looking for his shot at al. I look for him to rebound decently and play well. I think probably like others sem to think - -he will be coming off the bench , just hope he can accept his role and not get down on him self, but just don't want him to transfer out.

However now with this transfer portol thing and making things so easy, gonna be a lot of transfers yr after yr. Just hoping he isn't one of them.

You remember these guys / Special. • May 21, 2021 09:06 PM

who else remembers these guys ? - - - Naash , Gueldner , Pekka , Pritchard , Randal , Brown , Maddox , Jordon , West , & Calloway ? Was going down memory lane yesterday went back and re-watched that crap stomping they laid on Kentucky back in 1989 - - at the Phog. We were ranked # 2 behind Syracuse at the time We just flat gave them a flat ass barn stomping.

Down Town had 31 that day ( how sweet would it be to have a guy that could shoot the 3 like he did on a current team now ? ) Calloway had 21 - - - Randal had 21 - - -Pritchard had 19 - - - Gueldner had 19 - - Pekka had 16 - - Maddox had 10 - - -West had 8 - - Jordon had 7 Nash had 4

Kentucky had NO ANSWER lmao -Slick Rick got T'd up twice , - Most points in School History 150 - - -shot 61 % for the day - - 82 % from the line - - ( 34-42 ) from the line 20 offensive rebounds -- 80 points - - -EIGHTY points in the 1st half -- 70 in the 2nd. - - Miller from Kentucky was killing it in the 1st half - - -Not so much in the 2nd - -Mercy I loved that game , especially against fricking Kentucky. - -You remember that game? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@RockkChalkk said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

Its simple, Pettiford > Harris. This doesn't feel like HCBS initiating it though, more likely Harris approached him about it and had a talk about the future. I'm sure the official stance is that there will be a competition for the playing time, etc., but based on the game footage I've seen, I'm very convinced that Pettiford is the future starting PG for KU. After these last few signings it may not be next year but he won't be redshirted, he'll get a lot of run to get him ready to take the keys the year after.

Self hasn't used the words point guard to describe Pettiford so I don't think Self views him as a lead guard at this point. Self has described Pettiford as a combo guard which in Self speak means Pettiford is a 2 and will mostly be off the ball this year. In Self's eyes, Pettiford and Harris are not in competition with one another, Pettiford is competing Braun, Yesufu, and JCL for minutes because those three guys can play the 2 spot and in Yesufu's case, probably the starter at the 2 spot next season.

As you listed Braun , Yesufu , & JCL - is just another reason I feel would be a good reason for Pettiford to redshirt , adjust/ grow into the P-5 level ball give some time to learn -develop more. I think he will be solid but this coming season we already have Depth at that spot & again think that spot is going to be taken for starting minutes anyways by Yesufu

?s=19 lol

LMAO - - - score - - that's pretty good made me laugh lol - - The kid obviously far from the best on this team but you know what ? - - This kid gives everything he has got always trying his best and one of the things I love the most about Mitch? - - He LOVES KU - -I mean this kid is KU through and through. Who would of ever thought he would be one of the better shot blockers on the team , I mean sure very true he gets beat on defense quite often BUT the kid recovers he may gete beat on the drive - - he manages to recover and at least have a shot to fix that and block the shot from behind. -- He'll take that charge - - he gets dirty gets on the floor after loose balls - - whatever it takes. - -These are the type of kids I love playing , guys that genuinely love the School - -Always a Jayhawk MITCH.

I know it's crazy but when I seen the twitter you posted - -had a flash thought holy Crap it's Mitch saying he had decided to move on with his personal life lmao - - I know , I know whaaaaa . but I did lol

The ONE big thing about this though competition in practice doesn't translate to game time play. - Experience speaks volumes, which with us seeing a lot of these experienced players transferring in here, not only here but all across the nation. Very Very true Pettiford better player - BUT Pettiford is also in-experienced , where Harris is experienced. Done been down that road. For this Season if Remy sticks I am fully convinced Remy is for sure the starting PG , but I would be willing to bet if Dejaun sticks he will be getting the better mop up/relief minutes for Remy. Pettiford needs time to grow into P-5 ball. Seen it to many times where kids come in with better reputation possibly higher rated then others - -we know how that goes - -now for 2022 ya after having that year to adjust I could very easily see Pettiford starting but as for just walking right in and getting major minutes and over taking Harris at this point - umm don't think thats gonna happen

Remy to Kansas • May 21, 2021 04:11 PM

Guys , quick question -- off topic BUT just Curious so why is it our cool little chat room here on Buckets why is it our comments fall off a lot on Fridays lol ? - -You know I HAVE to get my KU fix but on Fridays or most Fridays become so quiet you could almost hear a jellybean drop lol - Really miss all the interesting Conversation on here - - this is where I get my fix

Especially during the off Season , late Spring and horrible Summers - they just drag till we get back to the fall sports, Thank God there has been so much Basketball activity & the hiring of a new Football Coach has been good for conversation - -don't go hide now lmao - - I'll never make it through the Summer. Maybe we need to hold back some hot juicy talk till Fridays ya that's what we need to do lmao

2021 Transfer Talk/List • May 21, 2021 02:12 PM

BShark Think I got it now - - back to someone transferring out. - - So I go back to my 1st thought and like most others here NOT crazy about that if it happens.

Dejuan is very solid already on defense - -quick. - - - like I said yesterday when listening to the local sports talk show here in Topeka and they were talking to Jesse Newell who covers KU , and he was saying they think people are kind of overlooking his shooting. He really didn't take that many shots but when he did was pretty decent. Think if not already will become a fan favorite. - It's just comes down to numbers , Jesse said if Martin didn't stick - - - - Harris would be your starting point guard. got the experience , been through the wars would start over Pettiford. - -I could live with that , BUT I think Martin sticks , would be fine.

Use Martin as your starting PG & then use Harris as his backup. - - Let Pettiford Redshirt along with KJ & Clemence. - - Or let Harris and Pettiford get after it just let it be worked out on the floor. - Hate to see him leave IF indeed it turns out to be the case

It's going to be Agbaji, let's not over complicate this.

Now our buddy saying through rumor could be a transfer -- - - If it's a transfer that's leaving would be one all these new transfer in. - -With the Comment that was made about not having any problem wit Bobby backing up the i and or 2 - - at first I thought it was Harris that was being talked about - -but with BShark saying which we all knew anyways Agbaji is Gone , but saying a transfer - -I'm shifting my thinking that very well could be Yesufu . - Hope I'm wrong who the hell knows lol - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@BShark said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

I will leave everyone to draw their own conclusions on this lol.

Though I will also say, I don't hate Bobby being the back-up at the 1/2 spots at all.

Dammit man lmao, we you doing this lol. - -I will stick with Harris if it isn't one of our new additions and you referring to as Bobby has to pettiford.

if this does turn out to be true and my guess happens to be right - -hate to see it. Dejuan a nice little PG, really good/quick on the defensive end, I think he could develop and be a really solid player. Think his shooting like they were saying on a sports caast yesterday - -he shooting ability might be a little under vaulvd - might be a little better shooter then soe think. - -BUT I guess it's just the /nature of the game , if this is who it is - -THank you for your yr Dejuan and the best of luck

Well, this won't happen.

Then with that being said I would think my thought would be Harris quite possibly

@Marco said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@jayballer67 no doubt. It helped us this year, without question. Not sure how I feel about the new rule though tbh. It might gut the mid-majors, but then again if teams have fewer scholis to give due to taking on transfers that might open things up a bit as far as mids being able to bring in highschool talent. We shall see. Personally, I think they'll become farm systems for KU, UK, UNC etc. K hasn't got onboard yet, right?

Ya I think your right. - -I don't think now could be wrong but I don't believe that Duke OR UNC either one has really hasn't dove head first into this, more surprised with Davis - not more involved

@BeddieKU23 said in 2022 Recruiting Thread:

Bossi thinks KU is the early favorite here. Makes sense on data available

From what he said in the piece that was written , sure sounds like as of right now KU is in a good spot - -solid spot anyways. I guess almost sounds like it made a pretty big impression on him when KU re-offered after he pulled out of Providence.

He said he wasn't really in a big hurry as he wanted to see who else might be involved , but I like our chances , see if we can get him on Campus for a visit which I think WE WILL , were in a pretty decent spot as of right now anyways - we will see

Remy to Kansas • May 20, 2021 06:31 PM

@Marco said in Remy to Kansas:

@jayballer67 I don't advocate for five out, just think that Cam, Clemence and Adams and even Curry will play, drastically cutting into Dave's minutes. And I don't that will be a bad thing, different looks and styles. It will be interesting to see who willingly accepts a redshirt this year, because it is a very deep team. If ever there were a year to use an almost two platoon system this would be it. But as we all should know by now, Bill isn't too down with that idea.

Adams isn't close to being ready to play very meaningful minutes - - Clemence probably have a hard time seeing many minutes. - -I think Adams is a serious contender for a red shirt year Like I said I think Dave is your biggest most important of the 5's - it will be split between Dave , Martin and Mitch if anything

2021 Transfer Talk/List • May 20, 2021 06:28 PM

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

The glaring weakness for this team will be athleticism. Hopefully the pieces fit enough to compensate

Oh I think with the additions of Martin & Yesufu to name two I think Bill got exactly what he was looking for and we are more athletic for sure with those additions - much more speed I think this team is going to be very interesting to watch.

Everything I'm hearing KU should be listed as probably a pre-season top 3 team in the Nation , People talking KU should be considered very Seriously as a National contender next year

@BeddieKU23 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@bennie

Player retention has passed its peak, its now just a revolving door of coming and going. Expect 1-2 transfers from the 4 HS kids signed after this upcoming year. We have 4 one year rentals & I would fully expect this is McCormack & Wilson's last season in Lawrence.

Expect 6-8 graduations/transfers/early departures. The new norm

teams not only Kansas can expect big turnovers yearly - will for sure be the new norm. - Like I posted yesterday we might see a lot of these freshmen just passing College, kids that aren't really NBA level at this stage BUT would be very good College players. With that being said as long as the portol being the way it is now - -the Transfers these Coach's going to have a tendency to lean more towards experienced College players, players that have experienced the wars of P-5 - instead of very good High School kids that true are good but raw and need time to develop - it's really going to get insane. Makes my head spin.

Would be very interesting to see/know how many other Schools have as many transfers/new additions as Kansas - 10 is just NUTS

@Kcmatt7 said in 2021 Transfer Talk/List:

@BShark It will definitely be refreshing to see guards getting layups again.

Probably one of the more underrated improvements in next year's squad will be transition buckets.... Remy and Yesufu should help there a ton.

A Ton - - Remy is quick , maybe not DOT quick but still quick and the dam kid had motor Runs in 5 th gear most the time - love his game

Remy to Kansas • May 20, 2021 06:17 PM

@Marco said in Remy to Kansas:

@jayballer67 which is why Dave needs to go to the rack more, because he is a good free throw shooter.

And with the make up of this upcoming roster that is exactly what I believe you will see happen. - Like people have said Marcus and I love Marcus mainly defensively but anyways Marcus was not a true point guard. - -With Remy being that true point guard I think you will be able to see Dave establish position more often then not and Remy be able to get him the ball with him being in THAT better position and thus more time at the line. - -We missed hm many many times when he had established last year - -would end up throwing around outside instead of going in when he was posed up. - -Thats not going to be the case this year.

Remy to Kansas • May 20, 2021 06:12 PM

@BShark said in Remy to Kansas:

Dave can and should get all the minutes he can handle.

No Doubt buddy - - no doubt at all I agree 100 %. As hard as it may be hard to believe , I think Dave is to vital to big of a piece on this upcoming team not to. - -We still going to be 4 around 1 and Dave has to be that 1. - I just myself I think Dave is going to be the one taking the most minutes and then spelled by Mitch & Martin - -the only time I could possibly see an all 5 out type of Scenario would be when Martin is on the floor. Again I will bring up the thing is with Martin is - - IF he can defend at all then when he is on the floor you will see him out stretching the floor which could be a very good thing - Still think Dave IS the one who needs to be on the floor the most

Remy to Kansas • May 20, 2021 06:06 PM

@Marco said in Remy to Kansas:

@jayballer67 I'll take that in a heartbeat, 15 to 18 minutes. And yes, he'll still be an important piece.

Dam dude I thought you were saying Dave would be getting only 9-10 minutes per game - -instead you were talking points per - still have to disagree a little. I think we probably looking like still Dave getting around 12 - -maybe even possibly 13 a game this Season with the floor even more spread. - -thing is teams won't be able to clog things up as much as they are going to be forced to guard the outside the wings and such with our new additions - One thing is Dave is a pretty dam good free throw shooter and with Remy being able to distribute I think Dave will get even more opportunities at the line and be a part of the reason for the 12-13 per

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Remy to Kansas:

@Marco said in Remy to Kansas:

@Texas-Hawk-10 it's not about his style. He is not skilled or aggressive enough to be called a true 5, yet due to his too high a motor, almost mechanical style nor can her play anywhere else. I am saying, he just doesn't fit with the current line-up.

All of that is a load of bullshit. You're contradicting yourself with your own statements saying Dave isn't aggressive, yet has a high motor. You're letting personal bias against Dave cloud your judgement on how good Dave is. Dave isn't the most athletic guy out there and guess what lesser athletic basketball players have to be to succeed in basketball? Fundamentally sound which looks a whole helluva lot like being mechanical.

You also clearly don't realize that Self has built next season's team around Dave to play to his strengths. Dave and Remy have very complementary skills to execute a lot of pick and roll this season or to just iso Remy opposite of Dave and have easy dishes to Dave of the defense helps off of Dave to cover Remy. Then you got Yesufu, JCL, and Braun all more than capable of lighting it up from deep. Then you'll end up with Wilson, Clemence, or Cam sitting in the corner on the same side as Remy waiting for a kick out if their man helps on a Remy drive.

This team will not be anywhere near as offensively challenged as last year's team was. McCormack will be a 15 and 8 guy and the second leading scorer for KU behind Remy Martin next season.

For a guy who seems to think that he knows everything, you tend to overreach and be wrong quite a bit. I know that they won't be as offensively challenged, which is one of the reasos why I stand by everything that I said. He was important to our team this past season, and I said so. And he will be an important piece this season too, and will undoubtedly play and should. I just don't want him to play more than about 20 mpg, tops - and I don't think he will.

The team has morphed is what I'm saying, completely different personnel for a different style. It is not going to nor it should it be a forcefeed Dave in the post offense anymore. I imagine he'll average about 9 or 10 ppg, which would put him about 4th on the team in scoring. Wilson - if he comes back - will average more than that and probably even Yesufu, Remy the leader ofcourse. And I haven't even mentioned Braun, Long, C. Martin or any of the others, but you did and while doing so seemed to think that it validated your point while not even coming close.

Got to differ on Dave's Minutes - he will still average around 15-18 minutes per, true won't have to be force feed - the floor going to be a lot bigger this Season - -more spread then even before- But Dave will still be to vital of a piece for this team for only 9-10 minutes -

Remy to Kansas • May 20, 2021 02:02 AM

As has been mentioned - -Dave will have a soild year next year we need Dave and he showed well through about the 2nd half of the season - -Ku going to be able to spread the floor Dave have more room to operate with the Guards we have Ysufu - - Lands Braun - -Dave is gonna be just fine - it's still going to be four out and one in and with the improved players we have going to be a lot better scoring the ball - - & like BShark said - -Dave is the best 5 we have and he has gotten better. - He saved our ass multiple times

Cam Martin • May 20, 2021 12:55 AM

He is a big kid - -sweet stroke can really stretch. - like the were breaking down yesterday, gonna be huge IF he can defend at all - -really can help and for sure see the floor Sweet stretch

Kansas: “Coach Bill Self reached out to me after reopening my recruitment and that meant a lot to me since he's the head coach and a legendary coach. They have a great coaching staff and they told me they love how I play and would love for me to be a part of their program. I watch them a lot and I feel like their guards control the pace of the game well but can also mix it up and get up the floor. They also use a lot of ball screens and let their guards play a lot.”

ya I seen that. Sounds like Epps is still interested in us also would be nice for 2022

i dont think there will be a lot of transfers out THIS year but after this year several of these players will have experienced what its like to be the 10th/11th best player on a team of 13 legit scholarship players. roughly 1/3 of the roster wont even get on the court despite having the talent, skills, and pedigree to be a starter on many P5 schools. The freshmen will definitely not see the court this year at all and all freshmen should now expect to be on the bench longer than they anticipate due to programs ability to get experienced players thru the portal. Self is going to take as many talented players as possible and then deal with the transfers out when the players figure out there are too many of them on the roster.

You know what you could see wit these kid of tweeners freshman , this new portal thing like you were talking about Coach's taking the experience -you might start seeing these 40-50 ranked type players stat moving more to these new type leagues for money you know what I mean ?

Honestly let me ask you this - - did you ever really think you would see something like this happening ? - to me it just boogles the mind. - -Another question with lands saying he is coming, you think or does this effect Yesufu in any way ? - -I would think for sure that Pettiford/ Cuffe are for sure redshirts now - -you think or disagree ? Adams redshirt ? - -gonna be real interesting

2021 Transfer Talk/List • May 19, 2021 03:49 PM

they was talking yesterday saying that we now are likely to see this trend again next year and years after. - With the New Walk on that KU has they said KU now will have NINE new players on the roster next year - - NINE. Jesse Newell was saying yesterday that more like then not your going to probably see a lot of new faces again next year. KU has 14 players right now and Jesse said we all know you don't play 14 players, your gonna have a case where players were recruited under the assumption or thinking they were in a good spot to see sufficient minutes and with this transfer thing now that may not be the case so your likely to see many players in the transfer again..

Looks like it could be a revolving door almost every year -like they were saying you only have ONE Basketball

@drgnslayr said in Remy to Kansas:

@Texas-Hawk-10

Maybe I'm over-projecting... it's nice to have positive thoughts between now and basketball season. Not sure why we would recruit Martin if he won't see the floor? Especially since he only has one year. Guys like him have sure racked up points on us in the past. He has no business camping in the low post. But he could pull out another team's 4 on the perimeter, opening up the middle for Dave.

I agree that Jalen needs to gain athleticism because he sure isn't a 4 at the NBA level. He doesn't really have the strength to guard the 4 either. Kid needs to muscle up and he should be doing that this off-season.

I think a redshirt would help Sydney. Especially since he has only two years of eligibility left.

I expect Jalen to get most the minutes at the 4... but I was thinking about bigger lineups... something Self seems to be moving away from anyways.

Oh Martin WILL see the floor. I agree they are not going to waste a Scholi on a one year guy if they don't plan on using him. The big question they discussed yesterday on the radio sports was - -IF he can defend? - If he shows he can he yes will be valuable 4/5 a big man being able to stretch the floor and average 45 % from the 3 point range for sure helps open the flor even more

Have been listening to talk off Local sports talk program. Saying that Coach Self has gotten EXACTLY what he was looking for this off Season saying that : KU had added more Athletism - -- - - More Scoring - -- More height - - We now that TRUE PG , Bringing out points like Yesufu very Athletic # 2 man - - -The other transfer that can Score a stretch 4/5 that shoots the 3 really well. - -they said the big thing IS if he can DEFEND then look out.

Depth ? - - my GOD do we now have depth:- -when you can pull if needed guys that on the bench to play - you have Braun for sure - - Harris to relieve - - Petiford - - Martin -Clemence - - Adams - Curry - Mitch can come in and give 4-5 minutes when you can put that kind out on the floor to relieve spot minutes - you Start Ochai - - - Yesufu - - Martin - -McCormack & can't remember the other - -But dam man

They said the ONLY thing that might keep KU from being a top 3-5 team in the Nation - THE ONLY THING right now is : - -The upcoming NBA Draft. - -How many of these 3 stay in the draft - Ocahi ? - -Wilson ? - - Martin ? - -they said they think the order would be - -Martin the best chance - -then Oachi - - then Wilson.

They said KU now for sure has the Scoring - you got Yesufu that can go get you 15 - - Martin that can go out and get you 15 - - Oachi can go out and get you 15 - - takes a lot of the pressure off Oachi. - If nothing else we can throw body after body after body - - if we can get past this draft with 2/3 we good . - If we gt say Martin & Wilson back - -were good - -if we get Martin & Oachi back - -were for sure good - -if Martin stays in that might change things some but we would still be good not AS good but still good.

Remy makes big shots, game winners, whatever you want

Sure was nice to see Remy killing it against some other teams then just us. - -A couple of things I was able to pick up from watching as Remy has a motor for sure - - non stop would love to see us really turn it loose with the guards we have this year , run - run - - run 80 % of the time anyways but yet not totally forget our big boys. - Another thing I noticed and I love - -some don't but me? - -Screw it I do , Remy has some edge - -some cockiness to him , a little bit of attitude I LOVE it - -I would much rather have a guy like that - -that's not afraid to show some emotion, you make a great play - - a huge shot at critical times - then hell ya SHOW it let it go- -much rathe have that then someone who celebrates like we at a Tennis match - Mr nicie nice. - - I'm not talking a Silvio type chair thing but hell ya - let people know Hell ya don't be bringing a pistol to an AK-47 fight. - -Thirdly didn't realize but sure looks like the kid for sure can distribute the ball - -Holy crap a couple of those passes he made in this clip were - SWEEEEEEEEET. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So I guess this cools the bill self has lost his touch, we can't recruit without snacks, or we can't get any good players because of the investigation talk....at least for a week????

This team is good. I'm not as excited about martin as everyone else is, but I'd rather have martin and yesefu over wheeler or tyty. The biggest recruiting get of this off-season is ochai and Jalen. I fully expect ochai to come back....Wilson not so much. I think he's dreaming about the dolla dolla bills y'all and he could get those in some bulllshit overseas league. I don't think wilson can compete professionally anywhere in the world right now, but is still a solid P5 basketball player.

I think it's just the opposite. - - Ochai more likely is gone and Wilson comes back. Ochai more athletic - I don't think he is NBA ready BUT like you said he is just good enough to be able to pick up money over sea's in one of their gazillion type leagues they have. - At first I thought there was no way he would leave but it has now slide to more like a 60 -65 /40/35 that he will. Would love to have both come back just don't think that's happening

@jayballer67 “I just want to be able to play for a historic program,” Martin said. “I’m very excited to play for Coach Self and get my master’s degree. I’m hoping to interact with the fans and play in such a historic place like Phog Allen Fieldhouse.”

....

I can’t (wait) to play with those guys,” Martin said. “They have a history of playing deep in the tournament. I’m excited to see what we can do.”

So he will just be here for the one yr right ?
