RJ Hampton
-
Let me translate… If it gets to the end of May Kansas must use precision in their decisions to perhaps stand in a good position.
-
The plan is for Boogie Ellis to sign a LOI, which means he has to decide within the next week. That will tell what we need to know.
-
It keep going up for R.J. AND KU
-
Just Scott Chasen. I like Scott, but he’s in the dark other than a morsel here or there from the staff.

He’s a beat writer is the way I like to put it.
-
Meyer still hasn’t flipped his pick yet - - - -Nothing out of slater yet. - those are the 2 i’m interested in. – Especially Meyer. - - WE ARE NOW AT 62 % – TO Memphis 19 % - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 Andrew thinks RJ is going overseas. Meyer probably ditto.
-
Ferguson got paid $500K to go play overseas. I’d imagine RJ is getting offered at least that, probably closer to $750k.

Ironically if he really wants to play he should pick KU instead of overseas. Lots of grown ass men in China and Australia.
Based on previous players who took this route these seem to be the likeliest two. Personally I’d take Australia over China for too many reasons to count.

If he goes overseas, Australia is the best bet. They speak English, so the cultural transition is easier than it is in some of the European leagues. Additionally, while the competition may not be as good, the teams are more well run than the second and third division teams in Europe. And unlike a lot of the European teams, they will play a kid that’s only going to be there for a year.
-
Australia is awesome. No politically correct bs over there. If you’re fat they’ll call you a whale and if you start to cry they’ll ask if the tears taste like gravy. Their PM doesn’t take any crap either. It’s kinda like the US in the 80s when things were awesome.
-
@dylans like the U.S. if we had Universal Healthcare and Stricter Gun Control Laws, Half the cost to attend College (with better repayment plans) and a higher minimum wage.
But I do agree, I love the Australian spirit and attitude towards everyday life.

This is weird but since Australia tightened up their gun laws killing went way down.
Meanwhile there were two major school shootings in the last week or so in the US.
This is really hard to figure out, going to require more time and research.
-
It’s harder in the U.S. context. DoJ spent like a gazillion dollars looking at the effects of the “assault weapons” ban and found exactly nada in terms of effects on homicide rates and crime. Australia also doesn’t have a bill of rights so the government can do about whatever it wants.
But anyhoo. Australia is a lot of fun. Beaches are great.

Yeah sorry for getting on this bullshit. I almost went deeper too.
BACK TO RJ!
-
Probably wrong , but I thought I had seen some where his dad said over sea’s is not an option
-
FYI, Jerry Meyer will be on KLWN in about 10 minutes talking RJ.

1320 am right?

Maybe? This also works http://v6.player.abacast.net/855

@FarmerJayhawk I never could get that to work. I’ve tried before for RC Sports Talk. I’m on the newest FF so I really don’t get it either.
-
They might be on iHeart or something too.
-
It’s fine I’m old so I have some radios.
-
Nothingburger
Heating up. He mentioned the overseas talk and money. Name dropped T Ferg route.

And the women, I’ve been there, are freaking
and love them some American. They like our accent the same way that American women do the English… I’m just saying…
-
@dylans But the women are not, shall we say, umm, (P.C. Marco, P.C.) shy…
-
@Kcmatt7 Yeah, Australia definitely has some of the healthiest and most educated waiters, waitresses and bartenders that the world has ever known.
-
So what did we get from Meyer interview? - -what did he have to say?
-
Hold onto your butts. This one could be over pretty soon.

Today soon or Billy/Silvio soon? :p

Reads Dawkins not found guilty of Wire Fraud
Immediately wires RJ’s Dad a significant amount of money.
“I’m moving my commitment date up to May.”
Nothing going on with this recruitment.

@Kcmatt7 THIS IS A PURE RECRUITMENT SIR.*
*Only if he ends up at KU obvs.
-
Now, please, for the love of God, just make sure the Dodge Charger is in HIS name this time.
-
Boogie Ellis visiting Memphis now. Ovaaaaaa

Now, THAT’S FUNNY!

With Boogie at Memphis for a visit, I’d hate to think Precious is leaning toward KU because RJ might go to Memphis? Not the same positions? Or maybe I’m waiting for the other shoe to fall. Things look TOO good?
-
@Gorilla72 Precious and RJ are not the same position and likely do not factor into each other at all.
-
@Kcmatt7 - Isn’t Memphis running out of scholarships if they get Boogie and Precious/RJ?

Memphis has 3 left as of now.
1 of them is for Lester
1 of them is for Boogie/RJ
1 of them is for Watford/Precious

Could be that sounds more like Watford is going to commit to Memphis - could be the reason Corey and others changing their CB picks. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I wonder if precious is going to follow RJ like Hurt did with Tre Jones.
-
I mean one of them needs to pull the trigger already. It’s a friggen staring contest right now and one of them needs to blink.
-
I made a mistake. - First one today , I thought 247 CB showed Watford favoring Memphis - -but looked and he is pretty solid to LSU - but I know there was a lot of talk about Memphis too.
I think this thing is gonna get pretty hot - real soon with these players. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Boogie’s going to pop for Memphis early next week. RJ will then cut them, probably not publicly.
-
I believe we will receive a package-deal for next season and will all be living in the Precious Hamptons, Lol. But serious, I think they’re a package deal, and that we’re going to sign both. If Holyfield soon chooses someone other than KU the deal may be all but done.
