Well , Meyer - - - Daniels - - - Chasen - -- & another all showed their CB for our upcoming commit - - glad to get this over with - been a heated recruiting battle - -Jus hope he doesn't jump ship and commit to DB at the last minute.

Just having a little fun don't get all serious on this. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So your saying he might take other visits after committing. Oh god the horror, I'm so done with this guy. why cant we chase the 5 stars! Ugh.

yes , yes I'm afraid we might lose him at the last moment to DB -who needs 5 * when w can get game changers like this lol

Some quotes from Bill.

"At 6-foot-10, this past summer Gethro showed everybody that he can shoot the basketball with range. He’s a runner. He’s a jumper. He’s a shot blocker.”

"Gethro to me is one of those guys, kind of like a Markieff Morris — how good can he get? I mean his ceiling is high. He can run, he can jump. He made two or three 3s the other night in his high school game and he plays in a highly-competitive situation. He’s going to be really good. And he’s active and a shot blocker. He’s not ready yet, but he’s going to be really good."

I like the sounds of that , I have read that Gethro had quite possibly the highest ceiling of anyone - -has a high ceiling - -also like being a rim protecter -- I think going to be a really nice 4 year player for us. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

But wait there's more!

"To me, if he was here now, he’d be playing all the minutes now. He’s really a good player. And to think that he just grew up down the street and is just now blowing up like this over the last 12 months is pretty amazing. … What people are saying about him that follow that game are raving about him and deservedly so. He’s a 6-foot-7, long, do-everything guard."

what amazes me I question even my intelligence/ knowledge at times - -think I'm just blind to somethings man - - really looking forward to see Tyon next year. - -Like I was saying I don't claim to know everything by far - - - THEN I go to the Phog & read some of the comments, I swear to GOD guys - - that site has turned into a real cluster - - - - , I read like what BShark posted here - -and I think cool sounds pretty sweet. - -Then you see some remarks/comments from poster like this one : - -Oh Tyon will get to play a few minutes here - - a few minutes there - -but DON'T EXPECT MUCH. - -umm hello - -once again I think I'll put my trust in Coach a little more then this poster.

Just like I stated about Latrell on the other end of the spectrum - - -Tyon is rated the # 2 rated Juco in America - - kid has got talent - -I for one am looking forward to watching him - to the contrary of some people YES there are some Juco players that can play - -and play quite well - -Juco players get labeled as not good enough to play at a P-5 School - - not good enough and such -- there are many , many reason why a kid might have to go to a Juco - - doesn't mean he can't play

The Phog has really turned into a Crapper - -a real dumpster fire - - -I think some people gonna be surprised I think he will contribute just fine - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BAY

@jayballer73 That is my thought. I would have saved this for a grad transfer. This day and age there a high level kids year in and year out that can make a huge difference. This kid will transfer out in a year or two.

Let's see how he does 1st before talking him down

Nobody is talking him down, but what people are saying is the truth , there is a reason why he has not received P-5 offers - - not ONE - -there are a lot of kids that have skills -- just NOT P-5 skills - - -sure he might look like he has got better skills on his high light reel - - it's because it's HIS HIGH LIGHT REEL - -sure not going to show liabilities on a highlight reel.

Might be amid Major but there are people that follow this kids - -watch them see their level of athlete - -these people do these things for a living , think you can pretty well take what they say about the individual as solid. - NO P-5 offers other then KU - -just makes you wonder - -KU really going out on a limb - -it's ok - If Coach thinks he is legit enough to take the chance and offer? - - then who am I - -that's why Coach is Coach and I'm the Couch potato - -still doesn't mean a person can't scratch their head and go - - - hmmmmm - - things that make you go hmmmm - -time will tell, just hope people realize not all kids are a Frank Mason - -or Devonte Graham - -even they had other offers -- time will tell

Woodrow said:

@jayballer73 came out late this morning that Memphis ruled him ineligible and is holding him out until there is ruling from the NCAA

finally understanding that they are just trying to save their ass from the NCAA

Oh hi.

Is it me ? - - this just seems bizarre, weird - -almost like we offering for a body. - -I think might of mis used this Scholi- - unless we playing Thompson as a combo - which he competes with Oachi - - -then Harris and this kid a PG - just kind of a head scratcher for me.

Couldn't we have used this Scholi for like a grad transfer or another Big possibly - -can't quite figure this out

KU is still actively recruiting KK Robinson fwiw. Arkansas however is the favorite. Plans to announce near the end of November.

I just don't really think to much of a chance now with Bryce being here, ad Harris into the mix next year. I know people will say don't think Harris being in the mix is going to come into play that much , and not really sure how they gonna play Bryce, - -are we playing Bryce as a Combo - - or are we going to insert him as a PG ? - I just don't have much confidence in landing him. - However I read somewhere that they said Arkansas was at it's limit - -couldn't swear to that but what was stated.

Starting at point guard a Freshman from Columbia Missouri, number 3...Dajuan Harrrrrisssssss.

kinda what I was thinking sooo pretty well answers the KK recruitment wouldn't you think ?

Wiseman is ineligible and will be held out until resolved.

Wait ? what ? - -Wiseman just played. - - - Again against Oregon

K-state really impressive tonight, losing to Monmouth at the half 29-20.

Heard their announcers say - K-State is like 1-30 from three point range in the 1st half these last 2 games - -AGAIN ONE -- for THIRTY - - sure sounds like they really suck still early season though.

How is this possible with such an elite program?

well they are shooting 29 % tonight - - -0=10 from the 3 - and 14 turnovers - - AT HOME -- also I was wrong - -they said that over three games now that they are 1-32 from the 3 - - -holy crap even I could do better then that - - --ONE --- FOR - -THIRTY TWO

Was coming here to post this. It's always sunshine during the official statement.

What about Bryce and Gethro ? - did anyone hear if they signed today ?

Good luck to our ladies - - have an idea , as long as we are here - - let's just stay awhile . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Late bloomer type who’ll stick if ish hits the fan. Has some tools. Just tiny.

Guessing this happens pretty quick. Same AAU as Gethro.

do you think we are really serious with this guy? - -I mean we are going to have Harris next year also - - seems funny

dylans said:

@FarmerJayhawk Can he shoot? If so KU needs a guy if the 4-1 is going to be a staple. This team is short handed in the guard position. IMHO

Oh my friend Kyree can DO IT ALL - -he is a beast - play 4 different positions - -they have stated he is a untitiled position player - flat out serious hops drive to the hole - -hit the /jay - I REALLY wanted him bad to come - -then people started talking about him going over sea's - and now I guess we just not interested. - -he isn't the plague or problem child or anything like that but I guess we just have moved on - -I would still take him in a heart beat

BeddieKU23 said:

Sam had a big first half (15 points I believe) but in the last 8 minutes of the game that I watched the only thing he did was make 2 FT's

True but they were BIG - - BIG - - BIG -- BIG HUGE FTREE THROWS clinched the game - boy Kentucky is gonna be dealing this for awhile. - it's Evansville was a 25 1/2 point underdog -- 3 rd largest payout on the betting line for quite sometime - -just a classic wet our pants cluster - Kentucky was miserable

Crimsonorblue22 said:

I wonder if the Memphis team cares if they might have to forfeit games? My sons have longer undies than that Memphis dude shorts.🤣. What a dork. It's not sexy at all. Right, my other gals on here?

Wiseman played they said like 5 minutes tonight - - ARE THEY NUTS? - -if the NCAA doesn't clobber them will be insane - they just blatently defying the NCAA lol

dam I can remember wearing shorts just like those back when I was in school - -jumpin - -gee - -hossie - -toads -- I'm old lol

When reading this - reads as insane as it sounds. The question I ask here REALLY isn't a question at all -- not even close , BUT I'll post it anyways

Here it is : - -Soooo which is worse ? - -KU losing to Duke the # 4 ranked team in our 1st game turning the ball over 28 times on a Neutral floor - - Duke the soon to be the # 1 team - - OR :

Kentucky ranked # 1 playing an unranked Evansville at Rupp where they had a 52 game winning streak against unranked opponents - -Evansville pretty much lead from wire to wire.

Not even a close decision - - Kentucky sucked tonight for sure - -far worse loss -- YES -- Or NO

Crimsonorblue22 said:

Houston has a big crowd.🤣

they on ESPN plus ?

Not sure where this even came from. - -if you look on his updated list of Schools off 247 Ku is not even listed

Kentucky's 52 game streak of not losing to unranked at home - - -GONE. -- 1st win against a # 1 team for Evansville

Crimsonorblue22 said:

I stand by my yes! Clutch throws

Huge game for Sam - -CLUTCH TIME

for a guy that sucks - he sure hit to HUGE free throws to seal it - - nothing but net -- 17 points - - Good for Sam.

Lmao - -ahhh doggone it - - Evansville picked 7-8th in the Missouri Valley. - - Unranked beating # 1 on their home floor - breaks my heart - pretty much lead that game from wire to wire.

Now time to Watch Memphis against Oregon

BShark said:

Crimsonorblue22 said:

@rockchalkwyo yes!

Nah. Cunliffe suuuuucked.

People will look at his points tonight but he also has 6 turnovers and 0 asts.

kind of hard to say a guy sucks when he didn't even hardly touch the floor at Ku - -you can't say a guy sucks in probably 10 whole minutes while he was here. - tell ya what - -doubt you hear Kentucky saying he sucks -he ate them a new ass in the 1st half of this game lmao

rockchalkwyo said:

Should I feel bad that I don’t remember him?

been just a couple of years ago he was here at KU played for Arizona State before us - -the reason you don't remember him cause he barely saw the floor - - I know he was here on our 2017-18 roster.

rockchalkwyo said:

@jayballer73 Kentucky is struggling a bit in the first half.

Ya Cunliffe is killing them - transferred from KU now at Evansville

Didn't realize BUT Sam Cunliffe killing Kentucky. - - we remember Sam Cunliffe don't we ? - -Arizona State - - - KU -- -7 Now Evansville. - -He score 15 points in the 1st half against Kentucky

Good game to watch -- Memphis and Oregon at 8:00 -Oklahoma on at 10:00

Not Big 12 action BUT our beloved Kentucky wildcats lmao. - - We think Doke terrible shooting Free throws ? - - - -Check out whitney Whitey or whatever the hell his name is for Kentucky. - -2-7 on the year and mercy hope they have extra backboards - -real heat checks missiles - - really really ugly

I read this from a poster off the phog. - -He had this for NEXT year's line up. - -Said he would like to see - Can't say I really disagree - - think it looks pretty goo to me. - -It went like this :

Pg : - - -Garrett/ Harris
Sg :- - - Thompson / Braun
Sf :- - - Agbaji ? Grant Foster
Pf :- - - Enaruna ? Wilson
C :- - - McCormack / Lightfoot

I could live with that. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So , what's next now? - -Don't for early period ? - -Done for the year ? - - is there anyone else that we might be in on for 2020 ? - Transfer ? - -grad transfer ? - -anyone hear ?

Dotson - - Gone - - -Doke -- Gone- - - -Moss -- gone ? - - and I'm going to say De-sousa - -gone NBA or no NBA - - - -so that's 4 - -who's next ? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Bill is the man when he's up against it. Last spring, this fall. He's incredible. You're too kind, @jayballer73! A little birdie told me it was "nearly wrapped up" about 3 weeks ago and never heard anything different until it was official this morning.

@Bosthawk a fringy OAD. If he goes supernova and scores 20+ PPG and shoots 45% from 3 then yeah. But I think 2 years a la Dotson is more likely as of now. Bring back Silvio and/or Ochai and we're loaded for bear again.

All I know is you just kept saying - - " were good " - -I also heard that Bryce might be here 2 years - - Not quite sure 100% he OAD -I'll take for however long.

The good news is I believe we’re going to get an upgrade along the OL. Staff has really honed in on that spot down the stretch. I’m kind of over Ashaad. I’d love for him to come but we should be ok at RB if Dom stays. Pooka, Dom, Gardner, and APH is a good start.

Thing is - - IS Dom staying? - -he hasn't played a second - -not one snap since the same time Herbert made his decision. - - Is Dom even still in School ?

He's redshirting for sure, due to injury. He suits up for every game still. Whether he stays or n

Didn't know he was injured. - -Hadn't heard ANYTHING

Of course Matt Norlander - -1st thing how big a risk Bryce was taking - -talking about how Ku had gotten the NOA and how many believes is going to be hit with numerous sanctions. - Saying if indeed they do get hit with these if Bryce will back off and re-open his recruitment. - -Leave it to Norlander lol

KU class went from ranked 51st in the Nation to - - - - # 11 in the Nation with the commit of BRYCE

just some FYI - -you guys probably already know but. - -If you go to 247 sports . com - -Evan Daniels has an article about Bryce announcing today - - -and has a link for stream so you can follow the announcement. - - Check it out

can we follow a stream for this anywhere?

No thank you with Mack, 67% win percentage in crap conference with Xavier. I’m plenty Good passing that by, not to mention several of his players that seemed to be actual gangsters and trouble makers. The next coach here won’t touch Bill Self’s regular season success and I’m ok with that as long as we can have more post season success. I’d gladly trade half the conference regular season titles for 2 NCs. Just win at home and win the conference more often than not. Current college coaches I’d like in no order are Jay Wright, Tony Bennett and Chris Beard. If NBA coaches Brad Stevens or Billy Donovan would consider a return I’d be fine with either of them.

Mack seems to be doing quite nicely at Louisiville - -and sure seems to be recruiting a hell of a lot better then we are at present
