@FarmerJayhawk said in Starting to look now at 2023 recruits.: @jayballer67 said in Starting to look now at 2023 recruits.: Well just got off that dreaded awful TOS that others have mentioned. - Was under the post of 2023 recruits , here is one that caught my eye surprised me in a good way. Never know and ya probably a really long stretch to think he would commit here but at least noticed we made his top 7, Kid is a 4 * Wide receiver. - -Thing is in his 247 profile ranked pretty dam high. - - in the 247 Composite he is the # 108 ranked player-- 10th best athlete – & 21st in Texas - – Then the 247 has him as the # 53 ranked- - 6th best Athlete - & 10th best coming out of Texas The kid’s name is Ryan , Neblett - -and thig is he had KU in his top 5 schools he was interested in along with Alabama , Arkansas , Baylor , Houston. Read now where we have made his cut to top 7 - they are pretty much the Same - Alabama , Arkansas , Baylor , Houston , Texas Tech , & Texas A & M- - -he has dropped USC - - Penn State & I think Florida last one might not be right. Again I know it’s a really long stretch BUT like a poster stated - -we v.might not have a snow balls chance in hell to land him - -BUT just to be mentioned in the conversation is for sure progress, can you even begin to imagine 3-4-5 yrs ago some ne like this listing KU in a top 5/7 or een 1000. - - Farmer I know it’s really early bud BUT have you hear anything on this kid ? I know he likes us a lot. But this seems like a courtesy add to me ¯_(ツ)_/¯ sure would be nice though IF he did

@kjayhawks I don’t think they’re that much different. They have to update them. I loved the dream on one, from a long time ago. I love the hype ones during the game to get the crowd going. I think we have a very creative video Dept.

@BucknellJayhawk3 Every year we have players step up into roles they didn’t have the previous season. Mason kind of fell under the radar going into last year and became POY so its definitely hard to predict which player will become “the guy”. Sometimes its all about opportunity, sometimes its about personal development and growth as a player and teammate. If we are talking which player has the opportunity to make the biggest leap its obviously Azubuike. If he can stay on the court his production is vital to this team. He’s the biggest boom or bust we got. I guess Preston could be lumped into that as well but as a freshman we know he’s going to have times where he struggles, its expected. I think we know what we are going to get from Devonte and Malik (although Malik hasn’t done it in a KU uniform yet). I would say we more or less know what we are getting from Svi as well. I would bet at least one of these steps up because of the opportunity available. Newman would seem like the most likely to do so with the reputation he has for scoring and coming into the lineup alongside a very good guard to play off. Vick is the 2nd guy I expect to make the leap. Just natural progression in the program, will probably play 900-1000 minutes this year and should be more consistent from a production standpoint. I’ll be shocked if he doesn’t capitalize on the opportunity this year. Definitely lots of questions surround this team but every team has them. Maybe this team has more of them then some other seasons but there’s a tremendous amount of talent and experience still around
