@BShark said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
Do with this info what you will but we really want Dexter Dennis. @BeddieKU23 @drgnslayr @Kcmatt7
Dennis playing with Juan. A 30% 3 baller and a guy that won’t shoot. Our offense- may it rest in peace.

This thread should be pretty fun tomorrow.

Jaelin Llewellyn committed to Clemson a week ago and now reopening his transfer recruitment again. Can’t make this shh up
I am still considering Clemson as my home for next year, but due to recent changes, my family and I have decided to reopen my recruitment in order to reconsider the best options."
He forgot Bag options there at the end lol

Texas lands New Mexico St transfer guard Sir’Jabari Rice. He looked good in their tourney game.

That’s a strong connection.

@BShark said in 2022 Transfer Portal Thread:
@Woodrow Bill has been down to Wichita personally for him more than once… This kind of player is his kryptonite…
I still don’t see why Bill would take him unless it was late in the cycle and needed another body. He doesn’t fill any role that we currently need. Seems really odd to me.

Yeah I don’t love it either but reporting what I’ve heard.
We made a real offer to Yuri Collins, won’t be reported publicly I don’t think. He will end up at Tennnessee.
Bill will be getting I believe 2 guards and a big, just no idea who yet. Heard there could be an announcement today.
-
Personally I think it’s a bit early given we haven’t had KU guys announce out yet. We will see I suppose.

We might be pilfering in conference again as well lol. It’s a brave new world.

Still not a fan of it but it is what it is.

Kendric Davis cut his list to 5. It was 7. This stuff is too funny.
KU, Tech, TCU, Houston & Fedex $
-
He is down to Memphis.
-
I know its just hilarious. Kids on his 3rd school releasing a Top 7, now Top 5.

Perhaps these mom’s should stay off the social media…

AJ Green in the portal from Northern Iowa. Iowa St fans have been fuming toxic ooze out their mouths for months waiting for this one. He’ll have a line if he wants one. One of the best shooters in all of College Ball.
-
I know some team will take him but Helicopter daddy Tre Mitchell in the portal…

@Jethro He deserves a better offer than ISU can make.

That large human that played at Illinois declared for the draft

Iowa St, Nova & UVA involved. Could be an ISU/Nova battle here. Iowa St feels confident due to family etc.
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah his dad is an assistant there.

Really not anything even beginning to be excited about through the portal - kinda sucks, see all these other schools pulling these guys is - -Us NADA -ZELCH - -ZERO. But you also have to look at it this way, you just don’t take someone to be taking someone and then say - -oh ya we were really active through the portal Coach knows what he is doing.
Thankfully it looks like maybe we dodged the whole Dennis BS , you can’t tell me that there aren’t many players better talented - better fit for the KU team then Dennis. I watched Dennis play a lot and NOT that impressed. - Many times became a black hole you throw the ball to him - it’s not coming back many forced shots -many low percentage shots so hope we put that conversation to rest --hopefully he ends up in Indiana would very happy with that. So Although we have no one at the present, seems like we go through this evey year & every year we end up just fine- Got to beleive – Got to have trust in the Staff I’m sure we will get really good players/role players whatever is needed when it’s all said and done

https://wreg.com/sports/tyler-harris-enters-the-transfer-portal-says-decision-was-not-his/ Connect the dots with Kendric Davis.

The portal is interesting because guys go to one school and have one role, then go somewhere else and get a different role that is more suited to them.
Imagine, for instance, if Dajuan Harris had stuck with Missouri State and they tried to make him into more of a scoring guard that took 7-10 shots per game. That’s obviously not his game. He probably would have struggled in that environment. Imagine him now entering the portal after two years of putting up close to 10 shots a game. His numbers look something like 8.3 ppg, 3 assists, 1.5 turnovers, 49% FG%, 29% 3PT.
We would look at those numbers and say he isn’t good enough too play at KU, except that because Harris came here first and was in the correct role, he has played well and was a starter on a national champion. Or maybe he goes to Missouri State and plays the same role for them that he has here at KU, except that because he’s the third option instead of the fifth, his numbers are up only slightly, but his efficiency is down.
And I’m saying this assuming he is exactly the same player that he is today, the same guy that just helped KU win a national title, that made a couple of huge plays in the national championship game.
Fit is so important, especially in college basketball, where coaches and systems are so rigid that going to the wrong school or having the wrong role could change the course of your entire career.
-
Not the most trustworthy, Tyler had already transferred 3 times including going back to Memphis…
-
@justanotherfan Completely agree and I think Dennis would be a great fit for us.
Though I fully expect us to be waiting for the roster to be filled into late May/early June. I know we are targeting guys that are currently going through the draft process.
-
@BeddieKU23 True but the timing reaaaally lines up here. Penny making it so he doesn’t even have another PG on the roster when we have 3 listed.
-
Oscar Tshhhhbw back to Calamari land
-
Good for him missing the tournament again
-
Guess our out-goings transfers won’t announce until Friday. Seems to be the consensus thought now.
-
So I can rest my fingers from all the mouse clicking the refresh buttons for one more day?
-
Dennis was a 40% trey shooter as a freshman. Did you ever watch him and the Shockers play during his stay there? I can’t believe he stayed there that long because their offense was a joke and it hurt everyone’s game… He is an elite athlete with great form.
Being a great defender along with Juan would be a great match.
I’m willing to bet he’d be shooting treys above 40% next year as a Jayhawk.

I’d take that bet in HEARTBEAT - that is if i were a betting man. - I think Dennis would be a really bad match just is not that impressive we can do MUCH better

Lolz. Had a feeling we’d at least put out feelers.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah maybe from the sounds of it. What a rodeo.

relevant

The last short arm guy did well here
-
But unless he comes without daddy its a hard fit
-
Looks like Bill and Kyle have had THE TALK. Deleted some KU related stuff and posted to his IG story stuff about staying strong with God, change is coming etc…

Imagine just asking him to play like a wing instead of whatever tf that Memphis offense was…
This is the crown jewel of the portal this year.

It is a one year marriage. I’m sure we’ve had worse… or as bad

You have an emotional investment in the kid which I don’t have. What worried me was on an 18 minute highlight video of his very best plays, I counted two (2) drives to the basket. Him playing together with Juan on defense would be great, but the flip side is he’d be playing offense together with Juan, and combining a point guard who doesn’t score with a guard that doesn’t drive, and shoots 30% from 3 is a bridge too far for me.
