New 2019 Recruiting
-
This is the year the Squid loses favor at Tucky. Those preseason number 1 rankings have the Blue Herd in a frothing frenzy after Dook. Wiseman reminds us that he’s starting to miss out on players that used to be a cinch. He’s losing a step, and his teams look pretty mediocre. The Herd won’t stand for another bad season.
-
@KUSTEVE It’s going to be really interesting to see where Cal goes for bigs…he needs at least two most likely more. Currently has ZERO.
-
I don’t think Cal losing Wiseman is a that big of a deal long term recruiting for Cal. Penny was his HS coach, is a Memphis legend coaching at Memphis now. Penny flipping Wiseman was not surprising and I think we’re going to see Penny close the border around Memphis the same way Cal did when he was there.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I expected him to miss on Wiseman. The point is he has now missed on a bunch of top post targets and things don’t look good on remaining prospects.
-
@BShark Self had a bad stretch in recruiting as well in 2012 and 2013 with a lot of missed guard targets. It ultimately worked out with Mason and Graham, but neither were anywhere near the top of Self’s target list.
I really don’t think it’ll end up being a bad thing for Cal to miss out on OAD boys fir a couple of years. He’ll end up with some program guys and his title team was mostly returning players. With the OAD rule likely going away with the next NBA CBA, having upperclassmen won’t be a bad thing for Cal.

Kahlil Whitney still hasn’t signed with UK. Will sign in the spring.
@FarmerJayhawk You hearing anything on this?
-
@BShark I have no clue but I would guess part of Kentucky’s problem recruiting bigs right now is the depth they have at the position. Nobody has any idea who is going to be there next year. Obviously Travis is gone, but other than that there isn’t any lottery picks so they could all come back. I wouldn’t be surprised if all of Richards, Montgomery, and a Washington all left or all came back.

Well even though seems like a lot of people now saying it’s a forgone conclusion that Nnaji is going to commit to N Carolina , I think I’ll just go ahead and hang on t that sliver 0f possibility of hope - till the announcement tomorrow.- -For sure no reason to other then just because. - -Just think it’s seems a lil just be off/funny that Evan Daniels has yet to make his CB for N Carolina , he is usually pretty good , and most other analysts seem to follow his lead. - - -. – -He usually doesn’t post a CB until after he has gotten word from the recruit or his parents leaked out to him BEFORE others then is when he usually post his CB
So I think I’ll just hang on and even at this late date in his recruitment - -KU still is showing an edge in the CB - not saying at all that he isn’t going to commit to UNC - -but just going to ride it out - -bring back the lone ranger. and slap that fat lady , one way or another we shall see Tomorrow -have a great night my friends. - . - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY -
-
So did I miss it OR did Stanley not sign in the early period? - -IF he didn’t commit early then I would think that should help us . I would think. Think that would mean were still in the game , cause if he was going to Sign or knew that he was going to commit to Oregon or UCLA then he would of done that now. - -so were still there. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

He did not, and yes it is good for KU.
-
Daniels just put in a pick for Zona. Seems like Zeke has kept this pretty tight and not many leaks. Should now ninth eject 30 minutes.
-
Arizona it is for Zeke.
-
Zona now has the #1 ranked class for 2019. Doing just fine in the wake of the FBI stuff.

All will crumble in the spring

@BeddieKU23 - hoping so…

ya it’s just crazy how they have re grouped after this FBI thing in their following year - - must have gotten afresh shipments of Thousand Dollar bills in lmao
-
It seems AZ has been under the radar since the payment thing last spring. The so-called recording never surfaced, nothing happened to Miller and that whole thing just died.
KU, on the other hand, is front and center. KU needs another trial and serious incriminating evidence against AZ, Duke, Oregon or someone in order to make this aura of “cheating” to settle down. Also, SDS becoming eligible would go a long way!
-
Arizona has a former assistant on trial in the spring.
But man, they are still out there dropping bags. Wild.
-
Yes… I don’t get why we are apparently hurt by the FBI thing and Zona keeps rolling along. Man.
-
@Gorilla72 The information implicating Arizona involving Stumpy was based on someone supposedly having listened to leaked unreleased FBI recordings. The issues involving KU, like it or not, were raised in evidence (both admitted and only proffered) and attorney arguments in an actual trial. The big difference here was supposedly an NCAA investigation and okay for UA last spring to play the guy getting the money, but KU has gotten no resolution. It may be due to the qualitative difference between rumored evidence and more concrete info (which I still contend is not very probative). KU, by keeping SDS out, gets ongoing attention as each game goes by.
-
Arizona is a Nike school so it has been spared so far. There is no way in God’s green earth that Nike is not paying orders of magnitude more than Adidas or Under Armour.
I keep thinking that maybe the FBI is just practicing with Adidas and preparing to go after the real big fish, Nike.
-
Arizona lost three commits last year @Hawk8086 it’s why they have been struggling a bit this year. But yeah, they are currently full steam ahead recruiting.
-
@BShark So if you do bad stuff…but the uncertainty is over you can get recruits. Makes perfect sense in the “amateur” system that is in place.

Basically yes.

Don’t think there’s much to it. Probably just keeping his options open in case Cal bolts to the NBA or something weird happens.
-
Hurt visiting Kentucky this weekend and is setting up OV to Duke, UNC, and KU.
-
Jaemyn Brakefield might reclass. KU firmly in play from the sound of it. This would um, salvage KU’s class quite nicely.
-
Interesting. Thanks for posting that. Definitely would help with what is going on

So kind of wondering , if this is how his visits are going to be played out - -wonder if this means we are getting the last visit? If it is , I think I could like that. – -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I would imagine Memphis/Indiana push for that 5th visit as well.

TRUE. - -I think the 5th might be Memphis over Indiana. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I agree. Hurt’s relationship with their assistant will likely get them an official.

KU makes recent reclassified 2020 stud Anthony Edwards “top 8”. Edwards is the #4 ranked prospect via 247 for the 19 class
Duke, FSU (perceived leader), UK, UNC, Georgia, UCLA, Michigan St round out the rest. A who’s who. Probably just a courtesy mention but we’ll see if KU can get an official, he is in the process of setting them up
-
@BShark Soft. Might as well play him at the 3, and let KJ handle the 4.

@BShark - -might

@JayHawkFanToo Upvoted your post because you are a good person, and you think that justice will finally come around to all. I love the way you think, but I don’t think anything will happen to Nike, ever. If anything, I think Nike schools will do way more in the future while the Adidas schools will get hammered over the slightest infraction. Zion Williams is literally playing on the court with $100 bills sticking out of his socks, and never a word is spoken. This is two kinds of justice : death penalty type punishment for non-Nike schools, total indifference to the most egregious acts done by Nike schools.

Edwards is not considering KU.

Article says different. - -final 8 so we must be there some where. - Your just a bundle of sunshine MR negativity - -lol

Not quite. According to him KU is one of the schools recruiting him the hardest…and, Lil Yachty who was the headliner at Late Night last year is his favorite rapper, so KU has that going for it.

I’ll be here for both of you when he commits to FSU.
