2020 Recruiting
-
KU will also be in to talk to Kerwin Walton.
https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2020/kerwin-walton-232884
This class / cycle is just bizarre. I haven’t heard KU associated with a lot of these kids that they are checking in on. Usually we have a idea of who they are targeting, but it seems right now we have no clue. ( besides the complete obvious)
-
Walton is a big time shooter

A KU assistant will be in today to see Dawson Garcia who announced his top 7 a couple days ago.
Would like to pull Dawson - - pretty nice Lefty - -looks like might need to put on a little weight but would be a good get. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Damm saw where Cassius broke Zion’s Vertical leap for Duke

This might already have been posted guys but - - -KK Robinson has 2 visits planned/official - - - KK will be at KU on October 4-6th. - - Isn’t our late night on the 4th? - -Will visit Arkansas the 18th-20th of October
His Coach says KK is the pass 1st PG - - excellent Passer , Can score when called on , - - -Great Court Vision , - - And gets in the lane well off the bounce
Decision going to be made BEFORE Christmas he says. - - Arkansas - - KU - - TCU - -Texas A & M - – Iowa State - - -Illinois - - & Vandy - - where we sitting with him? - -I think we gotta pretty decent shot myself - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I like how this one is trending. I personally would like to see him end up a Hawk.
Staff has been into see him a few times, the move to Oak Hill & having Dave on the team as an alum can help.
I know KK is ranked lower then some other targets but the film I’ve seen looks solid, personally think he’s a bit underrated and the move to Oak Hill will give him plenty of visibility to possibly rise in the ranks by the end of his Sr year. He could end up a high to middle 4 star player when its all said and done.
He is a solid 2 way player with a rep for being a quality defender already. Would be interesting having a southpaw PG on the team.
KU is his first official for late night. It’s not going to get any better then that wherever else he goes. Hopefully he loves the visit

Any chance here??

Possible reclass candidate https://247sports.com/Player/Frank-Anselem-46055566/
@BeddieKU23 I think so, but it’s so early with him it’s hard to say for sure.
-
I kind of feel comfortable. Self always pulls stuff out in the spring. We have a roster that has good depth going forward. All is good.
-------------uh, if there wasn’t this unknown dark cloud looming.

Thanks. Will be interesting to see if that one goes anywhere.
Anselem is a big kid that on tape looks like he’s just starting to scratch the surface.
Have we visited him?

Late Night is always a good thing , Big Seller for us , the only down side I’ve heard from some is with the late night - -the Coaching Staff can’t really give him as much of that one on one attention with so many other recruits being here also.
Might be making something out of nothing - -but Glad at this point anyways he only has the 2 visits scheduled - -he comes in , we make a good enough sales pitch - - maybe he won’t even make any other visits. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Self was in this week for him. It escapes me which day.

@BeddieKU23 You don’t think every coach has told recruits why would you go play for a team that is not going to be able to play in the tournament. I 100% believe it affected the 2019 class and there is no doubt it has affected 2020.

Absolutely its impacted both cycles. I just think the headlines will really scare off any recruits for the fall at minimum now. Could be overreacting here a bit but I’m sure the national chains will pick the story up and everyone will know

Watch the Spiral begin - - and we have seen it Already - -Mc Bride jumpin ship. - -he can use any other excuse - -this NCAA bull shit is exactly why he is out
-
What I meant is if the story is picked up by the media and kids see it, it’s going to impact what the kids think about potentially coming to ku
-
@BeddieKU23 yeah. It’s happening. ESPN is reporting the KCStar is reporting Kansas has allegations to come. About what you may ask?
aargh
-
Wichita tv station, Kc
blah blah

@Crimsonorblue22 they should really change their name to be more truthful. KC Missouri Star. - they really enjoy delivering bad news to us!

@BeddieKU23 Know what?
Edit. Never mind.
Let’s get this
over with. !OK , so let me ask people this - - -stay with me here , let’s say IF - - - again - -IF it did happen to turn out that the NCAA Charged Coach Self with Coach Control - - -where he could be suspended for a year - - IF that turned out - - Do you guys think Self would say Screw it - -and walk away from it? - Resign from KU move on - -Or What? - - -just askin guys that’s all – don’t think it’s that bizarre of a possibility. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 big if but he’ll stick it out and come back strong and pissed.
-
Hmm a year off to recruit behind the scenes? (Cough cough Huggins) Lol surely nothing but good could come from that.
-
Heard from a very solid source tonight that until the NCAA issue is resolved, expect recruiting to be “brutal.” Name if the game is develop, develop, develop. I get the feeling they’re more concerned about that than any sanctions.
-
Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if we lose Bryce Thompson and Caleb love now,
-
I suspect the 2020 recruiting thread … might … slow … down. And we mocked the offer to the JUCO kid. I feel bad now.
-
Going to be really interesting to see just how many of these recruits that were coming for late night -NOW actually show up. - - -I have a feeling like has ben said , it’s not gonna be pretty.
There is one thing that stumps me though , I mean dam - - take a look at Arizona AND Louisville these two programs are both smack dab in this mess and really hasn’t effected their recruiting that much at all. - - Hell Ol Stump Sean was/is real close to losing his job - -that program when this is all said and done could STILL be in a pile of warm dog doo and yet , you look at his recruiting and doesn’t seem like he has taken hardly any kind of hit - - not like it’s effecting ours , every time you turn around another recruit is committing there or they are in the conversation for
Look at Louisville - - they have been in Big time trouble - - - has it really effected their recruiting like it seems to ours ? - - -don’t think so - - I think there are some schools really just bashing the hell out of us about all this - -still makes me think also that it might be time to do some house cleaning , bring in new blood on the recruiting staff, possibly some of these guys have become stale.
Something BESIDES this crap just isn’t adding up. With the success this program has had in recent past , there is just no way our recruiting should be this sucky bad - even with this NCAA BS - -I smell something and it’s not good. - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 It’s definitely going to get rough but then it will get better. Louisville is the perfect example. They got hammered and recovered.
This current class is not going to have any star appeal.
Edit: Louisville didn’t even have a recruiting class in 2018? Is that correct? Showing as no signees that year for them.

This is going to be a year of loyalty for the program - - - well I’m saying from a fans perspective in a way anyways.
You know - - I know these other programs fan base everywhere you go - -they see your team, wearing gear an such - -get ready for all the BS remarks , talking about how the program is scum - - dirty always has been always will be they will say , Can’t win without cheating and all kinds of cheap shots - – just sayin - - be ready.
Now I know , and it’s ok if people don’t agree but all I’m saying is - -that IF it turns out and to me it’s looking more and more that whether we want to accept it or not - - at least from the so called wire taps - - info that couldn’t be introduced to the case or whatever , but if that took place if money WAS exchanged for a players service to get them to come here - - - -if they played or not - - bottom line is - - money was given , there was supposed where Coach asking if we were good - -again is being said Coach offered to resign - -IF your not guilty of something , then WHY would you do that?
If I’m innocent of these allegations there is no way in Hell I would be doing something such as that -to me him making a statement IF he did just solidifies his guilt in this - -again I can understand why people might disagree with what I’m saying here - it’s ok if you do I understand. I’m just trying to look from all sides.
Again IF and it’s looking like as much as we don’t want to admit it from phone conversations and yes again I get it - it wasn’t permitted to be used BUT whether it was permitted or not sure sounds like from the phone tap – money WAS exchanged – Bottom Line - -that is a violation period - - plain and simple - -try coloring it any way you want - - by NCAA guidelines a player can’t receive money well a player/parents who the hell ever - -So IF we did - - the YES we ARE guilty - - the old saying goes - - you do the crime - - -then do the time.
I hate this crap - -getting to old for this , I would give my left Nad if for once - - just ONCE in an upcoming season that we could go through a season with eligibility issues with players such as Cliff - - -the other kid that we had to fight for eligibility - - -or Billy or whoever - - just ONCE not have to worry about some NCAA bullshit - just give me one more regular season without this crap before I kick the bucket - -I’m so dam loyal to these guys - -I take it sometimes to fa - - it really chaps my ass when people start talking crap on the program – so this year is going to be a challenge for me to keep myself in check - -seriously I take this TO SERIOUS I think - -it’s a sport , but I can’t help it I love my Jayhawks even though I didn’t attend KU been this way since as long as I can remember . – Bottom line is guys - - BUCKLE UP BOYS - -it’s gonna get worse before it get’s better - - time to circle the wagons and unite - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well that’s no surprise, we sure know or should know , that no way he coming here with this NCAA BS coming at us.
It’s gonna be interesting to see exactly what we do end up with now this year, May even be a Juco - -Bill really gonna have to deep WAY DEEP look for those very obscure places for a recruit. - -May have to be a middle 100’s guy ranking - - I just don’t think we have a snow ball’s chance in hell of landing any kind of top 50 player with everything that’s going on right now. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I believe this was likely and the KU crapstorm being churned back up sealed it.

We need to start looking at our local kids now, there is still a lot of good local talent around

Not a bad idea. Get who you can and hope to develop them.

I hope that we can offer Ty Berry soon before he commits to Northwestern, Minnesota, or Okie St
-
5* big man Walker Kessler committed to UNC tonight
-
Oh wow. That’s a stunner.
-
He almost certainly wasn’t going there, but that 100% eliminates UNC for Todd

Couple tweets from Evan Daniels this morning that I found interesting. Sure KU is still considered a blue blood, but they are not acquiring talent any longer like one. Also, it looks like there might be a handful of top 25 kids taking the pro route this year…
-
Hearing when, not if, for Caleb Love and UNC
-
Didn’t make Andre Curbelo’s final 5. Not sure how much of a target he was.
-
Hopefully the staff doesn’t slow play KK Robinson for Thompson. They need a PG in this class for sure.

They’d take both in a heartbeat. Thompson could easily play off the ball.

And unless Thompson is coming with whatever is looming for certainty Robinson is surely a prospect you won’t get away stringing along

watch watch - -shouldn’t come as a big surprise now - - Todd/Kentucky
