@BShark said in KU Roster for 25-26: @rockchalkjayhawk said in KU Roster for 25-26: @BShark said in KU Roster for 25-26: @AsadZ said in KU Roster for 25-26: @BShark He is 26 years old. Right, it’s pretty crazy that he has eligbility left. Modern times I suppose. @rockchalkjayhawk I would be rather surprised if that spot was filled. Only so much $ and playing time. Yea on that roster spot? Seems weird for a major program like Kansas to not have a full roster of players. Times are changing i suppose. It is also more than it used to be now. 15 instead of 13. Admittedly it was always a big bigger with walk-ons. The last spots now are essentially walk-ons. Finding cheap players in this era will be important. It’s sort of more than it used to be. Before it was 13 scholarships with unlimited walk-ons, now it’s 15 players with the scholarships divided up however the school want to divide the scholarships. Current walk-ons are grandfathered in for the remainder of their eligibility and are allowed to transfer if they choose to and still retain that eligibility. I know Jaden Nickens wanted to play basketball as well and still could since KU has one roster spot open, but he’s not currently listed on KU’s roster so I’m wondering if Self is waiting to see how Nickens feels at the end of football season before adding him to the roster because I believe Self is now done with the 2025-26 roster.

hang in there. Been worrying about you. ️

Wow Coach was just dismissed from the Hospital on Saturday and now on Monday there he is on Monday having lunch with what they arre saying has a really good chance to be the rated big msn on KU campus yesterday. Jayon Keita a class of 2027 visited Ku yesterda, considered the Top big from the class 2027 looking like going to reclassify to 2025 considered probably top big man for 2027 or 2026- - -they haven’t ranked him yet but all say is for sure the Big man in class . Seven footer can cover a lot of ground a very , very elite rim protector has a right hook to Score, people believing in re-class . was at KU yester other schools Indiana , Duke , N Carolina , U Conn , Kentucky one sure way to tell the kid has the Goods and probably going to make a quick decision on where he will play in 2026 --oh ya averaged 4 blocks a game --elite.

@dylans Yes! Stood at the exit to run out of the stadium to beat traffic…twice! Couldn’t see the ball as I was down the right field line looking into the hazy sunlight.

TWENTY - -SIX DAYS , Till Kickoff- -man the Stadium looks Awesome-- -That field Sweet

Got to say , were in on some pretty dam good recruits for 2026 players either that’s going to visit, has visited , or visiting again.

In on pretty heavy Devion Adkins visiting KU on Sept 16th, Others scheduled to visit-- – -Latrell Almond 0n ( 8-38 ) IKenna Aloziie (10- 17th ) – Billy White III , Deron Rippey ( 11-2 ) to name a few

The big thing is that they volunteered they would be taking no revenue, none , zero , zelch in the first five years . Offered a absolutely no risk clause as to where if at te end of the Contract and they showed us where they wee bringing NOTHING to the league at all, they would or we could boot them out no questions asked. The big thing is they are on probation AGAIN. Do we really want something like that ? putting more back eye perspective from general public ? I don’t know each school getting around that extra three million-- money speaks pretty loud, Big corporate partnerships – – Fed - Ex— -Home Depot. I Don’t know , does pro’s out weigh the cons ?

JHX lost to Heartfire tonight. Not surprising since Heartfire was runner up last year and won in 2023 and is one of the favorites this year.

@approxinfinity no , these are guys that I have listed lately anyways are players they are still trying to fill out this years roster

@rockchalkjayhawk McDuffie hopefully - but that looks like a 30mil per year ball park deal and may not be in the cards. That’s a whole lotta cap space.

Speaking of Robinson Gym, one day I was in there and a dude asked me if I’d help him rebound his shots. He said he was practicing and while I thought it was an odd request, it turned out to be pretty cool when he said his name was Darnell Valentine! I knew the name, but hadn’t seen him play.

Man, we have had so many feral rats here doing damage that it’s hard to imagine hosting them as pets. But the bond between us and pets, no matter what the creature, is pure love.

Here’s a link from Brian Hanni’s twitter account. Just look at all those smiling faces!!! https://x.com/i/status/1944783789869220192

@SlimShaddy54 Fall practice has started. I’m still suffering from the hangover of last season’s disappointing narrow losses. Bring on Fresno State.

Tony LaRussa has the 2nd most all time wins of any manager with a .536 win percentage (not bad). He also won the big one twice with the Cardinals. Did fine with a solid franchise.

KU keeps things close to the vest on NIL. They’re going to hit the revshare cap easily and Goff said yesterday they’re adding scholarships. On the Big East thing, fine they’ll have more RevShare for basketball but none of them are good on NIL. Any school like KU can easily compete in terms of a total financial package. On UConn, they’re going to spend a lot more than most on women’s basketball as well. KU is well positioned to compete, though being in the Big 12 vs. the P2 is still a significant disadvantage. It would be a heck of a lot easier to hit the revshare cap with an additional $40m in tv revenue.
