2021 Recruiting

Kentucky will always out recruit KU with Cal and Nike. It’s just how it is. They wanted Nolan Hickman so they took him. It sucks. They will get Hunter Sallis as well.

When you have a School such as Ku and the tradition , the fans the program , a hall of fame College Coach the 2nd winningest program in the history of College Basketball , the National exposure they get when playing at KU on National TV - -just doesn’t add up. , Playing for a program that has been in the top 25 for how many consecitive weeks? - -you trying to tell me these kids don’t look at things like that? - Players who want to play against top competition - -that’s all right here. Sure the Duke’s - -The UK - -i get that who can match them on a constant basis ? – really no one , but other then that - your not selling me that other programs can offer a recruit better.
Only money matters.

As I said I get that. I fully understand that’s just not going to happen , BUT I’m not talking Kentucky - We are losing recruiting battles to lesser knowns not on our level - -I’m talking most recently now Memhis , Baylor, - -these guys should not be whipping our ass in recruitng wars
-
Who did we lose to Memphis? We already have two bigs signed and a developmental center on the roster in Muscadin so it’s hard to consider Ayomide a miss. He is not an impact player and might not even play much at Memphis next year, but I don’t know their roster that well.

We are about ready to lose Ayomide to Memphis. Not buying that we were not trying to get him here, IF that was the case we would not be calling him on a virtual contact this late in his recruitment. - He is rising playing in the rankings quite a few talking how he is really coming up , your not telling me they were not interested in him.
It’s more then just him though - we are missing on a lot of targets Sallis, yippee yep it’s Kentucky. - - Brown to Baylor ? - - come on man you know and I know Baylor in no way shape or form is on KU level unless you talking about the last 3-4 years possibly. - All I’ve ever heard on here is about what a terrible Coach Drew is - - Really ? - -So now we are getting beat out for high ranked players by a Tertible Coach ? - -what’s wrong with that picture ? - Getting tired of seeing these misses - -how about hits ? Whether you wanna admit or not these asst’s are getting out worked.
I don’t know how many times I’ve seen here or on TOS how people looking wanting to get rid of asst’s currently on staff - yet when I mention the seem thing I’m wrong - -hmmmm , again what’s wrong with that picture ? - Come on Man I know your not that thick - - -plain and simple we are getting beat out people not closing out gets kinda old - -now we are getting beat out for kids that are ranked 138 th in the Nation by a terrible Coach - -WOW - -ere are others within the last couple of years that’s happened with.
Seen - - Heard - - Read where players are ours to lose if we want them , see us recruiting them and then BAM. -Can’t really remember names right now but you know - -I know - -we BOTH know we have missed on quite a few , Hell I’ve even seen you mention how we scraping the bottom and not knowing who might be left out there after we had yet ANOTHER miss , so people wanna say after they go somewhee else – OH we wasn’t really interested or wasn’t really recruiting them that hard - - Na that’s not working anymore

Update on the 2021 cycle.
9 of the top 20 remain uncommitted. I didn’t include Michael Foster who’ll very likely go pro.
10 remain open from #21-50
6 remain open from #51-100
6 remain open from #101-125 (#125 being the last 4 start ranked).
Hunter Salis remains the top ranked prospect that KU was/is still recruiting. However there’s no expectation he ends up at KU.
Daron Holmes at #39 I guess would be next. No idea if the staff is active with Mac Etienne #44 or Trey Alexander #62
#138 Sam Ayomide looks set for Memphis.
Roster is young, I think Self can afford to hit the transfer market hard in the spring for something he may need. It seems unlikely this cycle is going to be anything great.
-
Made Daimion Collins’s final 5: KU, UK, OU, Texas, Tech. Looks like OU.
-
We window dress a lot. Guess there could be worse things
-
@BShark @jayballer67 money matters at Memphis too.

Might only need a grad transfer guard, we will see.
Imo KU isn’t adding anyone mentioned here. Sallis to UK, Holmes to well not KU, not really after Alexander and yeah Ayomide to Memphis but we have enough project big guys already.

If you look at how SEC teams like LSU, Georgia, Auburn, Arkansas & Alabama have been able to recruit the past 3-4 years you will soon realize recruiting is still dirty

Very much not complicated.
This is why recruiting didn’t change much for LSU despite their allegations. Still believe KU is mostly unaffected. Some kids do care but not many. The main thing is HC stability. Look at Louisville and Arizona. One bad recruiting year then when things were stabilized, boom it picks back up.
I do think it’s likely Kendall Brown and KJ Adams flip flopped due to the situation. This might even end up working out for KU. With Nolan Hickman, Kentucky decided they wanted him. Do we really think the situation at KU matters for that? It SUCKS but I don’t think so.

Hope so. Had a big summer

Bossi said KU will try to get involved big time and that he is interested in a blue blood. His brother plays at Nebraska and well, Lawrence isn’t all that far from Lincoln.
-
Kentucky is involved. So much for that cheap thrill

Self spoke with McGowens and his dad today. Wing isn’t a huge need but absolutely would take

The last time we beat Cal heads up for a stud wing location of family was a factor so uh, fingers crossed?

Go get em Bill, seriously this is the guy you get behind Big Dave.
Very good shot blocker and can shoot the 3. Still only 17 and will need to build that body up. Love the film especially the ability to protect the rim. Some real touch on his shot from all over the court.

Lefty with a smooth shot. Looks like a 4 year guy

Think this guy broke the kid down pretty good. - Really protects the rim , has pretty decent shot from distance , This guy says he is a LEGIT 7 footer. -Add a little mass /bulk to him. Have to say he probably for sure a 3 year player quite possible 4 unless he just explodes. - -runs pretty well.
Wonder if we are getting in to the game to late , who or what other big name Schools going to get involved. - who would be the main Competition ?

In case anyone cared Langston Wilson committed to Roll Tide Money Bags

We checked in for sure. Rumor was he wanted blue blood attention. Apparently playing time was more important. Because IMO there’s no way he was going to start at KU next year barring something weird happening like Ochai and Bryce leaving.

checks notes 0 blue bloods on list, the math checks out.
Would be funny if he ended up at FSU anyway.

Hot rumor is the corn. Which is decidedly not a blue blood. Maybe he meant a football blue blood?

just a sincere honest question for 2021 recruiting , do anyone think we might try and get involved with a Grad transfer OR any transfer - -or even Juco for the upcoming 2021 Season - -things been kind of rough. – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Daron Holmes ends up at Dayton. Weird recruitment…
-
@JAYHAWKFAN214 I like that guy. Man, please step forward Signing Gods.
-
Daimion Collins announcing Saturday. Looks like UK will get another one. Saw OU might be a player too
-
@Woodrow Is it just my imagination, or does Kentucky have like twenty scholarships to give? It doesn’t hurt their chances at scarfing up all of the players that we are waiting for our punishment to be doled out along with Arizona, Louisville and so on and so forth, and Dook - after the Zion thing finally went public - is probably now being looked at as well.

I know at one point Oklahoma was in really good shape. All I’ve seen lately is ALL KENTUCKY - -I don’t get it, - - is this a Basketball roster OR a football roster as many players they signing

I DOES seem like they have unlimited number of kids they can sign - - - - - This crap gets really old, but yet for all the talent ol Cal has he doesn’t have ANY more National titles then Bill does - just don’t get it. Like I said to Woodrow - -is this a Basketball roster number of players we are talking about OR is Cal recruiting for Football - -I mean Dam lol. ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Landers moved to the 22 class. I think KSU is a good spot for him to actually play. Bossi said KU was not serious about recruiting him.
-
Anybody know ? - - Is KU interested in Jonas Aidoo at all ? - - -Or better how serious are we with him and what are the chances ?
Off his 247 listed at # 120 but heard he moving up profile says he is 6’11 but they talk and say 7 ft, saw where in his 247 we were 1 of the top 5 schools he listed in interest and listed as warm
Then read off TOS we had made top 10 - says he was looking at hopefully Jan to be able to know - - -ANYBODY got anything on him ?
-
Top 20 PF Collins ends up at UK, no surprise there after the flurry of CB picks that way.
