I would definitely pay attention to his announcement :)

Oh buddy that sounds promising - I hope that would be sweet and be a big boost to our class

2024 recruits • Mar 03, 2023 08:58 PM

Farmer , need your thoughts. - -See where the 4 * CB that KU is in on heavily is announcing Sunday his commitment . He just got through with his recruiting visit with KU - -now he is going to announce -- the 19th rated CB in the nation. - Would love to get him, soo what you think our chances are - I think we sit fairly well anyways - you heard anything ?

Well more talk coming out about adding Schools. - -Heard this off WIBW sports talk a few minutes go. Guess a couple of guys from the Athletic has a piece - saying bottom line - -that the Pac12 commissioner they think more likely needs to have some kind of Media deal by the end of the Month - They say chances are this the end of the month is probably when you will see movement.

Saying that the Big 12 has been in contact with the 4 corner schools about joining, saying there is renewed interest about these schools joining. If the PAC 12 commissioner can't reach a deal that satisfies these schools chances are your gonna more interest /movement with these Schools - PAC 12 is done/ they are toast.-- was mentioned in a conversation that we al know Oregon & Washington wanting to get in BIG it's gonna come - - Stanford and Cal do not care what happens - -they are more interested in their academics - -they are gonna land some where - they don't care, they will be just fine.

The Big 12 has one thing in this that the PAC 12 doesn't have - -that's passionate fans - -Big 12 fans - fans of KU - -K/State - -Tech have passionate fans , they will watch their boys play on Tv - -Streaming - -anywhere anytime .mart move by the Big 12 to get their media deal done before others - our Schools gonna get 31.67 Million per school then they have money from other things that will increase that The Pac 1 will be or their latest offer is in the lower 20's - -that's not gonna cut it for these schools.

Sure we are not going to compete with the BIG or SEC in football - -BUT we are going to have a very competitive League in football. Then we are going to have THE BEST BY FAR LEAGUE IN basketball. The Big You Add Schools - - You add 4 time zones - -you add Value. - -w have all 4 time zones -we be watching Football all day - -11:00 time you have West Virginia & who they play - you have the 2:00 you have the Sunflower Showdown - -Ad the 6 :00 time zone the teams that fit there - -and then you have the night time zone they said - I dunno they named the teams that would fit for those last two time zones just can't remember - -Football - -ALL DAY & Night. - gonna get watched , the viewers will be there. -Again we will be a competitive football Conference. - The thing the Big 12 has now is stability -PAC 12 is just a mess
.
Then on another side note - -things continue in Basketball as another report said that Yormork is in DEEP negotiations with Gonzaga for Basketball - gonna be interesting to see what happens
Then also rumblings going on that when the current contract runs out - The Basketball tournament will be moved. - -Oklahoma City - - Dalla possibilities - -interesting

KU, UCLA, Syracuse as expected. Committing on the 7th.

Dang that's pretty quick - -Visit starts at UCLA tomorrow - hate it they get last visit and him announcing right after - could lead to announcement of adrenalin. lol probably not but them getting last visit is a bonus for UCLA - -Hate to say but think he is their's

@kjayhawks said in Big12 strength:

I honestly dont think the conference is losing much in basketball and football. Texas is good in volleyball and several second or third tier sports. But when is the last time Texas was relevant in FB or BB almost 20 years ago by my estimation. Oklahoma has always been good for spots in basketball but never consistently good they haven’t been good in football the past two years, they had some good years with Riley but 2000 was the last NC for them. Losing the massive following is more of hurt than the actual teams to me.

We replacing Texas in Basketball with Houston - - we win - football - - have some solid adds - -nothing powerful overwhelming but solid - were gonna be fine

Golf, golf and more golf! Gkids and gkids!

Golf! No thank you!

Lol.- - I'm telling ya I tried golf - myself my brother and my brother -in- law -played quite a few times - just couldn't get it down. - There were times when I'd hit the ball and it felt good - -really good and thought - man that's sweet. Then the very next time I would hit it think I had done the exact same thing and it turned out to be a real worm burner lol.

Then we decided just to go out and have fun - not be so serious. -I swear I can play the fastest 18 holes of golf as anybody in the World lol. - -I can tee off on first hole and it will land on 18 lmao - -my slice is so fricken bad. - Crazy to holler FOUR look out to see just how well you struck the ball look down and it's about 6 feet from ya roflmao - - Oh those were the days - -never laughed so hard. - bottom line though we sure had fun

your right , it was Crazy - -never seen anything like that - -Kinda wonder how often things like that happens - -glad I did see it -pretty cool

@dylans said in OK so here is a question - something to think about.:

@jayballer67 what will be will be. I’m just not listening to any retirement noise. It’s premature at best. I mean no way he’s leaving KU for Carolina…

No , No bud - really no rumor of anything - -just something crossing my mind and things I had heard in the past - -IF he does leave - -it's retirement - -retirement - -no pro gig - -no other College teams , it was just a random though and wondering in terms of years when it does happen - and we know sooner or later it IS going to happen.

Having said that even when it does we will still be fine. - -look how we did when Coach Williams was hired - Alot of people said WHO ? - no head Coaching experience and look how that turned out - -we will be fine - -But all of this is then - - WERE good now lol - - ROCK CHALK

@dylans said in Big12 strength:

@jayballer67 For basketball it looks like decent adds. But football drives revenue and those programs are meh. Adding markets is good, but watering down the product isn’t. I’d like to hear from Yormark who he is interested in adding and what they bring to the table to understand the direction he’s wanting to go.

Everything I have read from different sites and reports they have been seeing from reports is and have heard Yormark is after the 4 corner schools Arizona - Arizona State - -Colorado - -& Utah. - - He is also pushing to get Gonzaga as a Basketball only addition & talk of an Eastern School to come along with Gonzaga have all 4 time zones covered.

Pac 12 is toast - -they are DONE. - they are having a hard time even getting ION TV to work a deal with them - they looking at 100 % streaming- that's sad , been mentioned by many that's not going to add viewership --people aren't paying extra to watch PAC 12 sports Nationwide.-- pretty well know that if they get an offer or they WILL probably get an off in the lower 20's - -that's not gonna cut it. --you will watch Schools bail on them left and right with Arizona leading the way
.

Yormark has stated that the Big 12 will and is aggressively looking at more additions. - Keep an eye on March 7th. - rumor ha it that the is 12 is getting together and talks of Gonzaga being added for Basketball and possible talk of adding the 4 corner Schools when the time comes - -Sandiego State has also been mentioned - -Heard on my local sports podcast yesterday - -that just this week was the 1st time that an actual AD from the Big 12 has mentioned to public about the addition - ( Baylor ) AD - again March 7 the is a day to see what comes out or within a week or so after. Very true Football is the revenue maker but Yormark is for sure after these Schools and isn't trying to hide it.

Most of what I been getting information is off like Sic-Em 365 - which is Baylor site - - Texas Tech Sites - - Houston Sites - - Arizona Sites - - Arizona State sites - - BYU sites - - seeing if any of those had any new information of expansion from other sources - usually always something , or going to u tube and pulling up again 365 - -Sic-em Bears - USA today - -CBS sites things like that, where they have talked to Yormark or others

Meat Necklace Game Thread • Mar 02, 2023 04:20 PM

Mercy trying to grasp - - 17 Championships in 20 years - - that's insane - good insane but insane lol - Think about this. Therre IS a possibility - -a slim one but a possibility -- Ku could actually if things were to play out - -Ku could actually end up winning this Conference by THREE GAMES - -that's crazy with the strength of the league.

K/State is @ WV -even K/State fans are a little leary of that one - the one that won't turned this into a reality is ISU @ Baylor - I got a feeling Baylor just gonna curb stomp the hell out of Iowa State - but anything is possible - - THREE GAMES

@dylans said in OK so here is a question - something to think about.:

@jayballer67 I’ll believe it when I see it. He has also said he was wrong earlier in his career to put an end date on it. I can’t remember what arbitrary age he threw out, but as he got closer he said that ain’t happening. He’s accomplished enough to retire with no regrets, but I don’t think that really enters into the equation as long as he and his family stay healthy.

oh believe me I don't want him too but yet if it happens - -it happens ain't nothing we can do about it- -even IF it does turn out to be 5-7 years I'm ok with that

I'm very excited about the potential additions to the league that may be coming in the future.

Heard a nasty vicious rumor lol • Mar 02, 2023 03:21 PM

Pssst -- umm HELLO ? - - HELLO ? ummmm Texas ? - -Oklahoma ? - -hey guys vicious rumor going around that ONCE AGAIN you FAILED to win the Championship just some FYI - -say it isn't so ?- -No Championship in -- FOOTBALL - - no Championship -- -BASKETBALL ? - -DAM - -that has to suck. LMAO

Well anyways you go ahead - -run along and play with your little SEC friends -see how they treat you lol. -You think you gonna go dominate in the SEC - -win Championships there ? - - IN FOOTBALL ? - PSSST Please -- with Georgia, Alabama and those boys -- lol - -You think you gonna win Championships in BASKETBALL - -with Kentucky , Alabama , Auburn and those boys ? - -LMAO - -GOOD LUCK.

Good luck being a middle of the pack in Basketball teams and just maybe upper tier football with those guys - -BUT HEY go ahead you run along now - - play nice , and if they play to rough you just tell them if they don't stop - - - your gonna take your ball and your gonna go home LMAO. - - Ok run along - - LEAVE YOUR MONEY but you can go - -THAT IS ALL

Observation: Chris Spatola's eyes look very glassy. Wonder what he did at halftime?

Hmmm - Whatcha tryin to say Willis lol

He looks loaded. Maybe that's why he gets so loud calling the games. Maybe he snuck into Rat face's medicine cabinet.

LMAO

@dylans said in OK so here is a question - something to think about.:

@jayballer67 Bill Self identifies as a basketball coach. What the heck would he do in retirement? Until he is feeble I don’t see him not coaching KU. I’m afraid he’s built like me - I’m going to work until I die because what else is there to do? I get antsy on a three day weekend and create work for myself.

not sure, I do know he mentioned in an interview he was like the Syracuse Coach or any others who went deep into the life span - -said he wanted to be able to relax and enjoy - -the recruiting process like I said and putting up with the NCAA crap wears on a person big time after so long -- looking maybe 5 more maybe 7 tops
