So would he be welcomed back. - -he declared for the NBA - -hired an agent , heard his folks wasn't really that happy in his one year here about the whole KU thing - -saying it was a fluke of a yr - -not the real Quentin.
So if you were Coach - -would you welcome him back with the possibility of RJ - or would you tell him he doesn't have a scholi to come back to? - -he had been recruited over?
I myself if it came down to Quentin - or RJ - -I'd take RJ in a heartbeat. - and please don't come at me with the BS of you would rather have a Soph Grimes to a Fr OAD in this case -the talent level between these two is not even close Quentin made his choice - I can promise you that when he declared he was 100% that he was gone - - everyone here thought he was gone whether he should be or not. - Can't count how many times I've heard people here say Quentin is GONE.
Sorry but If RJ said he wanted to come - then sorry but your ship sailed when you declared - -Ku can not decide NOT to recruit just because some kid doesn't know whether he is gone or not - -KU has to recruit for the future - can't stand pat and wait - -that's a recipe for diaster. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

FWIW RJ's dad is saying overseas is not an option. I believe that as much as I believe the sky is orange.
his parents his dad has been saying that for a long time

@jayballer73 It's against NCAA rules to recruit a signed player. Not saying it doesn't happen cough Memphis/Boogie cough but it's a violation.
well thanks for that guy. - - -That's what I THOUGHT -- can't approach him till he has been released from his LOI - -but yet he stated Florida had been hitting him the hardest since talking about leaving

Wow. This doesn't suck, one bit. Full Court Press. Send everyone
I'd be shocked if the staff wasn't already in contact.
UM hasn’t officially released him yet. It’ll happen though.
I guess off their board they were saying that Jalen stated that Florida was the one that had been hitting him hard since Coach got fired - - Can they do that until he is release from his LOI
Wilson says he is going to talk to Florida - -- North Carolina - - -Oklahoma State - -Michigan - -& KU.
Wants to start scheduling Visits soon. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ryan on the phog is reporting Braun is now 6'8 and may still be growing... The plot thickens
Very interesting, if true. He becomes a much better signing if this is the case. His trajectory changes if he is able to play the 4 spot.
@jayballer73 Which video? Odds are I posted it awhile ago and don't remember a ton about it.
the one on the top of this thread

You guys see what you are doing there, right? Talking about how tech is going to only have two grad transfers and a developmental four* and juco yet should still be a top 15, top 10 program next season. Maybe, I don't know.... I sense a lovefest for Coach Beard.
The proof is in the pudding isn't it? He took Tech to the Elite 8 and Finals in the last two years. It's not a lovefest as much as giving the coach respect for what he's done recently. I expect he takes those transfers and new players and molds his team into a Top 25 program and thorn in KU's side in the Big-12. We shouldn't expect anything less after the last two years
Been a little chatter about Beard to Michigan? - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@BShark who is # 11 in this video?
Woodrow said:
@jayballer73 He has not reclassified.
So what's all this Hub-Bub about then? - -did he say he was going to have an announcement about re-classifying or not?
Blown said:
@jayballer73 isn’t it 158$ not 158 million?
no article said 3 year 158 million - - OH CRAP wait a minute - -went back an re-read - - your right I apologize just some bogus funny story - - -dam I'm getting old - -got the ol wool pulled over my bad eye lol - - was talking about playing 4-5 and being able to be Baritone and all that - - my bad lol -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Guys help me out. - I'm really confused - -I know - - I know I'm confused a lot of the time but - -Still , everywhere I look - -everything I'm reading is or sounds like that Kyree has already made the decision or already has re-classified.
Read a guy asking about when was Kyree's announcement date? - making it sound like he has already re-classified - did I miss the boat on this? - For sure I want this guy BAD - I've wanted him for awhile but the last I knew Kyree had said he wasn't even concentrating on re-classifying at the present - did something change? and I missed it?

I still fondly remember Josh as my second favorite OAD. And its close, because Embiid got hurt and Josh was a beast down the stretch.
There are ALOT of really good athletes that we can be fond of - that don't keep making as you said Dum Ass mistakes - like Steve said the kid is either one of two things which is - - he either has gotten himself a drinking problem or someone has introduced him into drugs - -OR BOTH.
This whole thing here is a probable Scenario of where he went in - - couldn't get into this VIP room and then things went South as - -hey I'm Josh Jackson - you don't know me? - I play professional ball I know you know me - that's where the drugs and drinking distorts the thinking. - He better get a reality check and get one real quick.
Or like has been said he gonna end up hurting some one or he is gonna get hurt himself
Blown said:
Don’t see Grimes on any mock drafts ???
Well I don't think he will make a roster. - -BUT like I said he DID sign a 3 yr 158 million - -deal with the barber Shop Quartet - we was stated that was the highest paid to anyone in the history of the franchise. - - -so there is a nice little chunk of green for him
FarmerJayhawk said:
They still like their chances with Precious. But I think Walker is more likely.
STILL got to get Kyree to re-classify yet right? - - - Kid is a beast - -they say like no position layer can play so many - yep i'll take me some please

Why arent we trying to sign Apollo Jackson or Poseidon Williams? It seems, at this point, that we could sure use them. Signing any player, even a mythological one, is better than none at all. "Hey, when are we going to see Apollo Jackson in action?," the broadcaster asks. "I notice you're starting a walk-on instead."
"....Err,, well,,, Apollo's visiting family in another country right now.... Don't worry, though, you'll eventually see him."I got a hot tip on a under recruited kid - -this guys is an animal - -Stands 6"11 - - 245 lbs - - PF - -out of it's been done Florida , name of Zeus , it's happening - -think we got a great shot at THIS mythological - - GREAT mythological player goes to a School that's un-defeated - think the School's name is Nike ( give me the money ) - - LMAO - -Hey you said even a Mythological - -here he is - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
So, you're calling it, huh? That's good news, indeed. If we can sign Zeus and then maybe throw in a little extra cash we might also stand a puncher's chance at getting Apollo and Poseidon. It's worth a shot....
Hell lets give a holler to Gatto - I'm sure he can help us out lol
@jayballer73 Well NOW it's Offical - - Offical. -- Quentin Grimes will NOT be back for the upcoming season.
Just read where Quentin stated last night saying that he had sign a 3 yr - - - 158 Million deal with the Barber Shop Quartet - - making him their highest paid player in their History. - -Who ever the hell they are lol - -Well good Luck Quentin you got some money. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So Adam Zagoria just tweeted that his prediction for Precious was KU. He only tweets out predictions days before the announcements and is hardly ever wrong. I am still not sold we get him, but I was surprised by this.
supposedly Chris Fisher the Kentucky guy put his CB in on Precious last night and it was for KU. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Jermarl Baker ended up at Arizona.
Can't make this stuff up
Crazy - -these recruits STILL going to play for SSS - - + SWEET SWEATY STUMPY - - - unreal. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Well maybe not so fast/easy of a decision for us to make. that's IF there is an option to be made.
Was checking out the Michigan boards and there was a guy I think he is one of their insiders guy just like we have us who try and keep us up to date with their players/recruiting and such
Guy named Eathen Sears and this was Yesterday he said: Just got off the phone with Jalen , and Jalen has said that multiple Michigan assistants have reached out to him - - -Jalen said he is still committed to Michigan and that Jalen ha
d also talked to Cole Bajema who also is still committed to Michigan
I'm just not really that sure about Jalen asking for his release. - - Also seen this today off the board. - -Jalen has said he is going to wait to see who Michigan hires before he makes a decision & see what the new Coach's sales pitch is.
Some people had said he had removed all his Michigan stuf off twitter, but was noted on the Michigan board that he was still following several Michigan players and such - - - I am not really expecting him coming - I think he stays put. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

So lets play what if. - -What if both wanted to come to and commit to KU now - we had the choice on who to take - - -Precious - - OR Jalen - - who would you take and why? - - both listed as SF - -Precious at like # 13-14 - - -Jalen # 50 - -who you take? - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Jalen comes without baggage and ego.
We don't have to worry though Precious is done to Memphis
did he say something to that effect? - -I would rather have Jalen to if that came into play - - better by far shooter - Precious bigger body but raw

hail@umgobluehail 4h
Jalen Wilson took Michigan out of his bio hee gone
Hmmmm , thinking there is anything to this? -- ya think he is going to ask for his release?
I know on their board they wee saying they was thinking within the week he would ask for his release , and that now days in general it's just better for the school if they grant the release - cause if not it's just a bad look on the school. -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
Did some searching on the Michigan board -- seems like their fans too seem to believe that Wilson will ask for his release and come commit to Ku - -the main reason is because of him and RJ being best friends - -thing is we got to get RJ to come here 1st lol - -which I think is looking better,
Bossi mentioned he thought Wilson was under rated at 50 - in the National rankings - said he has a really good shot - says he thought he ought to be `10-15 spots higher

Fwiw, Evan Daniels interview on CBS says he has been texting Wilson directly. The interview was from yesterday morning, but knowing that he has some direct contact makes me feel pretty good about him changing his pick last night...
true and Wilson said when ask by Daniels - - - Man I'm thinking, - -so maybe little luck he ask for release and I guess him and Hampton suppose to be pretty good friends. - - We would for sure have minutes for him - -this is starting again to look kind of interesting in this recruitment year.
On a side note has anyone heard anything about how the kid ( Moss ) ? - how his visit went - anything? - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I think it's pretty hard to do everything right leaving a high profile school. Always had a lot of respect for Beilein. Maybe he's a private guy and didn't want to disrupt anyone, and didn't think it was going to happen. I give him the benefit of the doubt here. And also, a free pass for a midlife changeup.
Doing this in Mid-May is a pretty crappy thing to do, regardless of whether or not you're typically a nice guy.
Screws over current players. Screws over recruits. Screws over the program and university that you spent 12 years at. Screws over assistant coaches.
His only responsibility is to himself, but I'd sure feel like a real asshole doing this the way he did it and especially in the time frame that it happened.
totally agree 100% - gave no thought to players or staff seems pretty crappy. - -just walking out on everybody. - -HA different sport but along time ago - -this would be like the pro football franchise that moved out of the City they played in - -in the middle of the night like trying to get out of town with no one knowing - just leaving the City in like What the hell.
Just there was ALOT of ways he could of shown a little more class - instead twitter - seems pretty sad
KUSTEVE said:
He screwed up. If he wasn't famous, we never would've known. Maybe he got drunk and forgot he was famous. He'll be alright...rub some dirt on it.
Buddy - - famous? - - umm how so? - sure not some stud in the NBA - actually kind of drowning - not doing a whole hell of a lot - just trying to figure how he is famous? lol
BShark said:
@Kcmatt7 Apparently this was all done with complete stealth. Everyone is shocked. Recruits were not told at all etc
that's kinda messed up for the recruits
approxinfinity said:
There were some comments int he article where he said that he liked how Beilein didn't try to change the player that he is. Hopefully who he is is exactly what we need and we make that case convincingly.
have to have him ask for his release before anything - that could very well not even happen
approxinfinity said:
So what does people think? -I dunno as for me - - my first take on Wilson after reading this article - - I just kind of think he probably rides this out and more likely then not sticks with Michigan - that would be my 1st take - -yet things can change , we will see.
Now as far as Precious - -this is wild up -- down - -up - - down - -possibly - - no way - - possibly - - no way - it would be sweet though. ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Evan put in a pick for Jalen Wilson to KU 👀👀👀
Blackshear won’t look at colleges until he determines whether he’s going to stay in the draft or not.
just saw the pick by Evan Famer - - - on the 247 - now those CB's show that Jalen is at 94% to Michigan for Jalen - -BUT that was all in account BEFORE Berlin resigned to go to Cleveland though right - -so I think that all totally changes - -like new ball game right?
