JJ is good with KU

I don’t think there’s anything to the HCIW thing

Sounds like a Sarr visit this weekend

@approxinfinity the Spurs already hired Pop’s replacement so yeah 0%

@Texas-Hawk-10 20-21 was the Covid year so it doesn’t count either

So in theory he has 2 more year of eligibility?

I still think just one because he’s played 3 years of D1 ball that count: 20-21 - Covid, doesn’t count 21-22 - JuCo, doesn’t count(?) 22-23: WVU 23-24: WVU 24-25: OSU

So he’d need the JuCo year to not count too. Weird situation.

The JuCo seasons no longer counting towards eligibility is why Diggy is playing at Maryland next season instead of being out of eligibility which should mean Suemnick still has two more seasons of eligibility then.

There’s no world where he has two left. He’s already played 3 D1 seasons that count.

@dylans I think they’d win that one, I don’t see the antitrust violation there. The rest of the suits seem pretty open and shut Sherman violations.

It would take the NCAA changing rules. Right now if you stay in the draft your eligibility is over.

The other night I watched a Dame to Kill For. Good movie. Also Dame watch is ON

@Texas-Hawk-10 Covid year

You obviously take Sarr if/when he wants to commit. Then keep recruiting Williams through the draft process. I don’t think there’s a realistic chance to get both but you absolutely recruit like there is.

Bill was also in Cancun for most of last week so not a lot of recruiting was going on lol

@Texas-Hawk-10 the WVU series at the end of the season looms large

@SlimShaddy54 also Gradey Dick in the house

The Hog is cranked tonight. Crazy turnaround from the days when you could wander in any time and get a good seat

@wissox Tim is a great reporter. He was raised in the church then worked for National Review and The Atlantic.

That’s a bummer. Those 12 personnel sets would’ve feasted.

I’ll be at the Mizzou game Tuesday! #CRANKTHEHOG

@Texas-Hawk-10 to quote a senior administration official, “The cruelty is the point”

Jereme Robinson to Daaaaa Bears

@drgnslayr nice! I’ll definitely check it out later this summer. Hopefully catch a sale

I’m really surprised Brown didn’t get taken.

@drgnslayr nice. I’m going to look at upgrading in the fall for football. I just have a bare bones Z Grill right now. It does the job for smaller things like ribs and poultry but it struggles with temperature regulation for bigger cuts.

I have a pellet grill and a Blackstone griddle on the back porch. I use the Blackstone a ton since it comes up to temp very quickly, is crazy easy to maintain, and is more versatile. It does burgers better than my smoker honestly. I can go from pulling the meat out of the fridge to eating in like 10 minutes.

I went to the Red Lyon for a brew and to watch some ball and talked with the rando next to me. Turns out he was the executive chef for the Dallas Cowboys at one point and is in town planning the menu for… a new restaurant in Allen Fieldhouse. It’ll be mostly a big donor spot but he told me the menu was going to be super high end and Kansas themed. Smoked meats at AFH for everyone! @approxinfinity i nominate it for the KU Buckets holiday party

@Jhawk69 high upside guy for sure. Great measurables, FCS freshman All America last year.

@kuballin10 said in Recruiting Notes:

@FarmerJayhawk Give me William’s - doesn’t seem like Stokes is reclassifying

Your comment on KJ and the 5/5 has me worried because that is the last thing we need is another year of KJ starting in mid-February

Same. But there’s almost no chance KJ can play next year. Definitely not as a big piece. He just won’t be in shape.

@kuballin10 said in Recruiting Notes:

Sounds like Stokes is 2026 still

Williams we want but will be out of his price range….hed be perfect here

If he’s all in on his last year, make some calls, get the money for Williams. Build a monster roster.

Yep, the money is there for the right guy

Really hoping the 5/5 rule happens. Zeke is the only player from last year it would affect. (KJ is hurt, Hunt and Juan already played 5)

@TYOHawk said in Recruiting Notes:

Staff is working…

Bill Self on his shit

Making the hardest pivot. Which, if it’s Williams or Stokes for a year, that’s a really close call.

@SlimShaddy54 he isn’t beholden to Nike.

@TYOHawk oh yeah, my point is just everyone should chill if that’s how it starts to go down

I wonder if they’d pull the ole switcheroo. If we get Stokes there’s a non-zero chance Tre White would look elsewhere. So that would give us some extra scratch to pursue maybe a better fit at the 3. We could definitely make White and Stokes work but the fit isn’t amazing. Both in the low 30% from 3 range. We might need a more knockdown guy who isn’t scared to shoot it, but he could be a Coward.

@Crimsonorblue22 in this case, you’re way ahead https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luddite

I am stoked

Mini Peja in the portal yes pls

@DCHawker that’s why I added the disclaimer. We’re not done adding.

@kuballin10 too early to say. 4 more roster spots to fill. Another starter and a backup big are the main priorities right now. But as of 11:28 PM 4/16 it’s DP, Council, Dawson, White, Flory.

Stokes shoots it a little better than given credit for too. 30% on 2.6/game last year. The FT% is a little concerning but he took almost 10/game. Just silly

Very little chance Avery goes anywhere this offseason. His compensation is really competitive nationally.

There’s been some good reporting that it’ll be hard for Stokes to get eligible academically by fall. Might take all summer if that’s the road they decide.

Beard is notorious for allowing poor effort and bad defense /s

Grass is on the way back, I’m not sure more than a couple MLB teams use an artificial surface. I know it’s better for injury prevention to play on grass. It’s just expensive to maintain so especially at the college level artificial surfaces are more common.

Couldn’t ask for a better weekend for visitors. LFK is positively gorgeous today

Tyshawn “f it the guy in the third row is open” Taylor. I loved Tyshawn but man he had some wild plays

@approxinfinity I’m open to taking him for the right price and role. My guess is his expectations are much higher than a rotation piece

Bill has always done best when the team reflects him

The perfect wing. He and Tre at the 3/4 would straight up bully everyone

Remaining needs and who I think we get. Big: Dunter Hickinson Wing: JA Tsorr Guard: Harris DeJean
