Not a transfer but seeing Dame Sarr could be a potential KU target (international kid). Italian kid who’s 6’7 with 7 foot wingspan. Illinois was heavily on him but apparently out now. Rumored to be KU/Oregon and the latter possibly having a big NIL pitch but who knows
-
Mama Mia! We will have to make him an NIL offer he can’t refuse.
-
247 confirming interest and that its KU/Oregon battle at the moment. Would be a big time add if it happens
-
Swain’s latest update for today:
Sarr is a legit target- KU/Oregon the two to watch, UNC also interested.
Nothing new on Williams- committed to draft right now, don’t think that’s uncommon for prospects that are focused on getting drafted to be relaying that feedback until its time for them to make a final decision about their next step.
Bynum the UTEP transfer is not a serious target.
KU is looking at the international route for a Center. Perhaps a new target is emerging but he’s trying to confirm the interest first before reporting.
Also saying things have slowed at the moment.

Question ?- -Don’t get me wrong , simple question, real head scratcher .- - Ok , why is our site here , and it’s a very good group BUT have often wondered- - During the week Monday through Thursday constant flow- always something buzzing about something lots of good chatter the FRIDAY CRICKETS - NOTHING LOL WHY ? - - OH WHY I ASKIN WHY ?— I love the constant chatter-- possibilities and then BAM just like a kick to the you know what lol
-
@Kcmatt7 oh i missed what he was saying. I thought Jose Hernandez was some sort of eccentric left-handed kid. Have we had a lefty on most of Selfs teams?

Xavier Henry, Julian Wright?, Flory, Shakeel Moore
I don’t remember anyone else
-
@Kcmatt7 Hunter, Josh Jackson, JCL, Wayne Selden, Keith Langford.
-
Did you know that Lodrick Stewart is left handed and Rodrick Stewart is right handed? Their names worked out well for them I guess.
-
Rylan Griffen is going to be joining Zach Clemence at Texas A&M.

I don’t remember Josh Jackson, JCL or Selden shooting with their lefts

@Kcmatt7 think i was incorrect about those guys. Jesus. All i did was ask google the ones i thought i recalled being lefties. Apparently Google really wanted to tell me “yes”. So much misinformation. Just looked at the youtube vids thx.
-
@approxinfinity was it the AI summary from Google? That’ll get ya every time. It’s never factual. So apparently ai is bad at both math and handedness. lol
-
@benshawks08 i just really dont understand how divorced from the truth we are. I guess the truth costs money. And its easier to serve up a pile of trash.
-
Adam Miller, old friend, Leaving zona state for Zaga. Likes the Z’s I guess. He was a senior in HS before the pandemic when his mom told me she’s hoping he’ll be a one and done. She also told me he likes KU. So I guess he transferred after his freshman year and had to sit, draconian rules that they are, and will finish his fifth and final season next year.

Probably searched for democrats!

To me, the most notable lefty was Langford. He brutalized defenders by driving to his left. I loved watching him play!

I just don’t think of Langford as a Bill Self guy since he was a Roy Williams recruit first. But he was a total stud and I truly think the NBA whiffed on him. He shot .375 from 3 internationally on 1271 attempts. I know he said he could have gone to the NBA at several points but chose to stay in Europe for other reasons. But if the money was ever really there for him then he would have gone.
-
I could listen to Langford talk basketball all day. Dude’s impressive. Glad he went to Europe, its a part of who he is, seeing the world.

@TYOHawk He cooked Hunter yes

@Texas-Hawk-10 Covid year
-
@FarmerJayhawk said in The portal.:
@Texas-Hawk-10 Covid year
I just dug a little, it’s not a Covid year, it’s a JuCo year. I didn’t notice that there was a year missing between his seasons at Robert Morris and West Virginia and it was a year at a JuCo.
A Covid year didn’t make sense because his freshman year was post Covid.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 20-21 was the Covid year so it doesn’t count either
-
The other night I watched a Dame to Kill For. Good movie. Also Dame watch is ON

Had the game of his life frying Hunter. Legitimately was the best game of his career and it wasn’t close.

He’s fine, especially when it sounds like he’d be the third big.

I wonder if there is any future possibility of the nba drafting players and stashing them in the ncaa with the pay for play rules in place?
-
@dylans I think those teams would rather have guys in their own system. But an interesting thought.
-
@BShark Lotta guys drafted on potential. I could see Yorkmark making that work. lol. He’s a wheeler and dealer.
-
It would take the NCAA changing rules. Right now if you stay in the draft your eligibility is over.
-
@FarmerJayhawk So one lawsuit to change the rule. lol the ncaa must have terrible legal advice. They always lose.
-
@dylans I think they’d win that one, I don’t see the antitrust violation there. The rest of the suits seem pretty open and shut Sherman violations.
-
I suppose if that’s what the nba wanted they’d just change the draft age to something higher.

So I can have any other job I want, but can’t go into my chosen profession of basketball?!? I think someone could argue it.

So in theory he has 2 more year of eligibility?

I still think just one because he’s played 3 years of D1 ball that count: 20-21 - Covid, doesn’t count 21-22 - JuCo, doesn’t count(?) 22-23: WVU 23-24: WVU 24-25: OSU
So he’d need the JuCo year to not count too. Weird situation.
-
@BShark I’d rather have the big French kid but its hard to sell a 3rd string spot
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think JUCO years dont count anymore.

The JuCo seasons no longer counting towards eligibility is why Diggy is playing at Maryland next season instead of being out of eligibility which should mean Suemnick still has two more seasons of eligibility then.
