So Hunter should be gone by no - -so now we shall see and play the waiting game - -see if he adds even MORE Schools or he calls it good after the Kentucky & Villanova game. Kind of mixed review from Kentucky fans, some are saying anyways they not as over whelming as you would think - -some are really glad he might be theirs - -others saying he isn’t that much better then others & how Cal isn’t gonna let him step out and hit the 3 - -some trying to compare him with the Harrison kid- - talking about how the Harrison kid was so well like and Hunter kind of a douche. Gonna be interesting - -I just don’t think Villanova is really a threat - - now if Wright was still there - -THEN I would be worried but just not seeing it with their staff
Nova’s got a nice team. Moore bamba and hakim hart are some guys along with Armstrong. Neptune seems a bit dodgy though

I saw his Hakim’s name being tossed around with us but just for a minute. - Really don’t think it was really eve much.

Reports are saying Hunter has been offered a NIL north of 2 million to come to KU

I seen that 2 per year - -they offered rumor ha it a 2 year 4 million deal , Kentucky can match that I’m sure
-
I missed it. When does Dickinson’s visit to KU end?
-
@Gorilla72 April 7, 2025.
-
Bill Self can make Hunter Dickinson a National Player of the Year here. Kentucky likely won’t be a good enough team to make that happen.
-
Buckle up time @FarmerJayhawk
-
Travis doesn’t miss. Pretty big whiff by the KU staff IMO.
-
Yep came here to post that…

Wonder if Haase put in a call to Roy on this one.
-
So now we will see if Ingram ends up showing up for his visit here or not. - -If he shows - then it’s NOT over , If he shows and Bill has that chance at him - ,good we have that Chance after those other guys have had theirs. - -Kinda just like Kentucky having a shot at their sell after us with Hunter - we got the last word- -we shall see.
Just let me know who we end up with - -I give up
-
ingram gone. Only other wing options that have been suggested are Tyson and I guess mgbako? Second one seems like an extreme long shot.
-
@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:

What is going on? We wanted him then maybe we didn’t then we did but didn’t want to appear to tamper to now losing him? Something seems off.
-
Tyson time!
-
Probably won’t happen but I’d be fine with tre white at this point.
-
Welp, this is starting to get disappointing.
Whiff on Dickinson and this roster is starting to look like dogshit.

lol

Didn’t like us slow playing him when we clearly needed a 4.
-
Ingram is a whiff, no two ways about it. Onto Tyson
-
Think Tyson is a big Wiffle Ball too - -this is turning into a real cluster f - - -
-
Somebody’s dropping the ball in recruiting pitch/job here -time to play a game of kick the can
-
Ingram committed to UNC this morning, according to his social media accounts.
-
You know I love it, and it happens more and more , and I’m not talking necessarily here -but on other KU sites as well as other sites how these thing play out. Example people were talking about what a great catch it would be if Ingram landed here, how he was a really good player and be a great fit, a nice replacement nice fit , would be the answer at the 4 - -and BAM as soon as Ingrams announces or any other player announces it’s all the same so predictable response beyond funny it’s pathetic. you can mark it down the remarks are going to now become :
OH well he really isn’t that good of player anyways - - - OR - - we really didn’t want him that much any ways - -OR no big loss-- OR he was a back up plan anyways - -so & so is a better player anyways - -it’s fricken funny
Come on , DAM – just frickin admit it - -WE MISSED - -WE WIFFED , holy crap have a big enough set of stones to admit we fuck - - up we blew it, the way we handled the recruitment. Doesn’t make the kid any less of a player for announcing that he WAS NOT coming to KU - -somebody dropping the GD ball You know it - We know it , they all know it. - We just flat missed.
Now all of a sudden you start to see guys that was mentioned before that at the time they were passes - - not as good - - supposedly NOW you will start seeing the same scenario that OH well ya he is a really good player -the same player that wasn’t squat a week ago is now instantly A LOT better ya let’s take him - - he is better anyways lmao it’s just comical. - We had all these kids that was so interested in us names mentioned or were interested in them , then they end up somewhere else and then they just automatically become YMCA players - - come on Dam, let’s be real who you trying to bullshit, cause I ain’t buying it. They are still the same players and the fact is a lot of these kids by passing KU cause they feel they are getting slow played
-
I’m still confident we will get someone better

Possibly soon but there is a real hurdle to clear so we will see.

Self’s coaching style.

KU will never land another player, my column:
-
Wait, when i said Tyson two days ago it was definitely not, now he’s our top guy? Lol. Hard to keep up. If the rumored concerns are mitigated i think he is a better talent than Ingram. Maybe its better in the long run.
-
Top guy at the position i should have said. Obviously HD is top target.

Tyson is back in the picture because we whiffed on ingram and there’s just a lack of wings on the market now. Hakim hart committed to nova, mgbako’s whole situation is weird, and looking at the current nba draft entrants that may come back to college does not look good. I guess pray Julian Phillips comes back to college and doesn’t go to auburn?

lmao - -like I mentioned earlier, guys that was mentioned earlier but people saying pass we can get better, that guys like Tyson would be a back up option that not as good now - - - -SURPRISE , some would try to throw shade and say - Tyson was ALWAYS my # 1 want lmao - just shake your head and agree when you hear that - you can always call BS under your breath lmao- -it’s called Pasify lol

Very complicated with him. Sounds like he should visit though.

@BShark lmao Bill building a team to win a 1955 Helms title. HS would be a disappointment to say the least

I like Tyson more than Ingram. Better athlete, shooter and attacker heck rebounder.
If Bill feels the same way and thinks he can land Tyson after initially thinking he had no interest (Tyson in KU) then I can see why we pivoted. What stinks is if we strike out on Tyson and could have easily had Ingram.
Wonder about that kid from Montana state as well
-
We suck balls currently weird team assembling and recruiting going on I don’t even care what team is gonna look like.I wonder who and how much the leading scorer gonna be

The worst Kansas has ever done under Self is a 4 seed, for reference.

@BShark I know I’m referring to the assembling of this team

Well I used to freak out and every time Self finds a way so I’m trying to stay the course.
Ingram wasn’t on my must have list. I would have talked myself to liking him if we did get him. Weirdly Hunter isn’t what I want either but if we do get him, I’ll be ecstatic.
-
I have to think there will be some very good players available after the NBA tryouts.
-
@NormRoberts This team isn’t complete yet settle down norm. Wasting your time rating an unfinished picasso
-
More guys will enter after the draft combine and etc. I know it’s hard not to be reactionary especially after the Ingram news but it’s probably best to stay calm.
-
Dickinson is still the biggest priority for KU and the centerpiece of the transfer class. If KU misses on him, then there could be some legitimate concern about where the scoring comes from next season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 We need Hunter to replace JW’s scoring and rebounding.
Dickinson, Tyson, Timberlake and whoever is behind door 4 is 1 seed.
Without Dickinson we need two more scoring wings to pair with Timberlake. Whether Tyson, Battle from Mont st or some late draft dropout it doesn’t matter who just get some dudes.
Juan, kj, udeh, Zuby, Elmarko, Adam’s and Timberlake are a solid core

Tyson and Battle aren’t locks to be big time scorers here and would still leave KU significantly undersized at pretty much every position, especially if KJ still started at the 5 next season and even at the 4 he’d be a little undersized. Without Dickinson, there’s a legitimate chance KU’s leading scorer is somewhere around 13 ppg and KU would need to have 4 guys in that 10-13 ppg range along with 3 or 4 more guys in the 6-9 ppg range.

Anyone have info on Dickinson’s visit?
