@BShark I really hope we don’t add just to add. The bodies at the 5 right now could get the job done.

Yeah we need a starter if we are gonna bother there.

@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:
KU will be Ingram’s first campus OV early next week. Staff ain’t about to let him get away I fear.
Jayhawk noises intensify
-
Sweet. I may get to root for nice kids instead of Hunter.

@BShark said in Transfer Rumblings:
Don’t feel good about Hunter currently. Need to confirm some stuff though.
Time for plan B.
Seems like a trend of plan B’s C’s-- D’s

You can’t tell me this isn’t a damn good basketball player.

You are happy on this one

You just have to really bank of Self getting more out of him. Diff system, better coaching, better development.
-
Jesse Edwards wassup. Ingram is a really nice connector piece at the 4. Does A LOT well just was asked to do a lot of things he doesn’t do that well (create his own offense, play down a position) at Stanford.
-
Never count out Billy Eugene Self.
-
Still think Spears will be the 1st to commit. - - Baby J told me so lol

Lmao- - -you goof ball

Lolz. But I’ll be honest I don’t have a feel for the first domino could be. Ingram isn’t in a hurry. Dickinson isn’t either. Spears? Maybe? Idk if he’s a take without clarity on his eligibility and/or Cuffe. But also school isn’t over for these guys and it would be June or July before they’re here anyway so there’s no rush.
-
Heard we’ve been in touch with Cleveland

Heard Auburn is getting him lol. Either way I don’t think he wants to leave the south.

Bossi said Ingram is likely to not mess around at all if you missed it.

that’s what I read in the article to- - -should be quick
-
@BShark He’s a weird level of good. He’s a take until he isn’t… I would imagine his NIL agent knows that too.
-
@Kcmatt7 His “NIL agent” is a good friend of Bill, as I understand it LOL. The dad is also involved but not as heavily.

UNC is pursing more wings of late, FWIW.

Rly makes you think
-
@BShark yep they just offered a high school 3/4 tonight
-
So recapping the day, we are likely to get a visit from Hunter.
We also will get a visit from Ingram Monday after he does other in-homes. Sounds like we have a great shot there.
Spears is still slated to visit after TCU but with things happening with schools on his list we’ll see.
We’ve contacted Matthew Cleveland (longshot) and Jesse Edwards.
Portal madness

Confirm through FSU mod also expecting Auburn.

Following the Hunter recruitment is an absolute rollercoaster.

@BShark Bragg, Cheick, Cliff, Billy, Hunter come on down! Youre the next contestant on The Price is Right!

Who btw? Did a quick search but obviously difficult.

Yeah given who he is it’s not surprising. Definitely not much of a fan of how this is playing out, it’s not like he wasn’t a highly recruited kid first time around so I’m perplexed why years down the road its a bit of the same rollercoaster. Guess some just really like the attention

Boy Howdy , you can sure say that again. --1st thought we had a good chance , then seeing maybe not slim chance , now seeing looks like get a visit - - - as the stomach turns lol. - -still doesn’t mean we get him by any means but - getting him to campus is half the battle Right ? lol- -well that and a nice NIL package - Can we provide a nice NIL package ?

Basically/Actually they came place the blame for a lot of this on how this whole portal has come about. - It’s turned into a circus/sideshow/freak show .It’s a matte in about 95 % of the cases of WHO can offer me the best deal. It’s less and less about the Coach or the School .It’s about NIL. This portal has made things a joke in some aspects. - It’s like to a point that if the kid wakes up some morning with a headache and the Coach looks at him wrong - -it’s like screw this I’M OUT. times I wish we could just go back to the old days of the basic recruiting & you transfer- -you sit a year - -I dunno gives me a fricken headache trying to keep up with all this lol
-
So I know Hunter is our # 1 guy we want for the 5 I understand , and I want him too BUT IF he doesn’t commit here would our fan base be acceptable / happy if by chance we landed Jessee Edwards from Syracuse ? - I think he could help out nicely.
Hunter big weekend. George Town & Maryland both visiting - -If we get through the weekend and he makes it to KU for his visit without committing to either of those Schools -especially Maryland I’ll feel much better as to where we stand and our chances

I’ve checked out of it for this reason alone.
-
@jayballer67 I think we end up with Edwards or another proven 5 that maybe isn’t in the portal
Hunter wants to go home it appears
-
@kuballin10 In some ways, Edwards is a better fit for Bill. Hunter’s talent is obviously undeniable though.
-
-
seems like Jesse Edwards is looking for an NIL bag and it’s a little more complicated since he’s international. Whichever team he commits to probably has to swing an international trip over the summer. Rather have Holmes
-
Nobody is accommodating that crap…

I prefer Holmes to him EASILY if he becomes available.

You don’t know TANG! They have another Dutch player on the roster already too soooo

Read the
with Harrison Ingram. UNC is in Brady Dunlap’s final 5 and is heavily pursuing Mgbako.

Holmes would be my favorite big by far if he hits the portal. Need him to leave and need him to not immediately commit to duke.

I think he would absolutely be a star playing for Bill Self.

Holmes is training with Mccullar right now in New Jersey…sadly probably means he’s weighing the draft heavily lol

Didn’t hurt believe it or not even though it’s been a couple of years, doesn’t hurt Maryland hired his High Schol Coach

starting to be more nd more smoke about that -him entering
-
@rcjhdraft - why do you think an international trip is necessary? Hawaii should be just fine!
