    KU’s Bidunga to the portal

    Fwiw I’ve heard Flory’s intention is to go back to KU if they put the money on the table, but it’ll be Duke if he leaves. Selfs return was contingent on NIL boost from 7-9 mil this year, to 15+ this coming year. KU will be gearing up for 1-2 more rides with Self.

    ***** Kentucky vs Iowa State Game Thread *****

    Hard not to chuckle as a KU fan. Hilton only makes it worse. Glad another fanbase gets to see how annoying it is.

    Question about BYU

    BYU was down 20+ to all of UCONN, Villanova, KU, Zona. They have talent and made all of those games interesting because they have AJ, Richie and Rob who all can go off. But outside of that, their role players are awful.

    Kansas officially out for Jaxson?

    Rush, Oubre, Henry, Wilson, Gradey all have found homes and had reasonable careers/starts. And McCullar will this year. Definitely no stars—but I couldn’t name many Pope has produced yet either haha. We certainly have not been an NBA pipeline atleast the last several years as I can’t even...

    Kansas officially out for Jaxson?

    Walk on here, KU staff feels good about getting one of: Robinson Furphy return Or actually Javon Small who hasn’t signed with WVU Could not tell you which is most likely but continue to agree Robinson spending his last year coming off the bench for KU to prepare for the NBA and improve stock...

    Interesting Jaxson Robinson quote on Pope

    Harris, Mayo, Griffen, Robinson, Storr, KJ Adams, Dickinson would be the primary rotation of 7. With spot minutes from Bidunga and Elmarko Jackson. I’m guessing Elmarko would be the one upset and likely transfer after this year I’d bet. Regardless it’s a fun lineup on paper.

    Interesting Jaxson Robinson quote on Pope

    For what it’s worth KU has been working Robinson ever since Kugel had to go elsewhere for academic reasons. It sounds like a KU/UK battle if he decides to return to college. It’s a weird choice for Robinson…but I’m just relaying what I’m hearing on our end.

    Only 25”? Kinda short to play wing. Must have some good hops

    KU gets another top portal player (Update - Dickinson also announces his return)

    I would say no. Especially if Kugel doesn’t make it to KU. But you guys are building a whole team and we have 3 starters (potentially 4 pending Furphy returning). KU is simply addressing the areas of concern from last year—shooting and shot creating. I’m sure defense will have its struggles...

    KU gets another top portal player (Update - Dickinson also announces his return)

    We will lose Kugel—academics it sounds like. But Griffen was a must-get for defense and shooting. Think Mayo will be 6th man unless we can convince KJ Adams to do it and slide storr to the 4. I keep hearing Javon Small’s name as the only other guy we have a big connection with, but really...

    Brea list

    It’s not KU. KU got a commitment from Griffen this last weekend that should be announced by end of week, only way we even try for Brea is if Kugel backs out (some academic concerns coming out). And even then I think we maybe just wait and see what Furphy does and fill later in the summer if...

    BYU beats KU at KU....Full game

    Hey now, it was 7 on 5. We had to play Nick Timberlake!

    BYU beats KU at KU....Full game

    Yeah Pope runs great stuff and should be fine once he starts getting some talent in UK, but we were not good from mid-Jan on. Don’t latch too hard on this one.

    Storr to Kansas

    The Harris/Dickinson/Adams trio would need much less time on the court together in my opinion. Need to spread the floor better even if I love KJ. Even as a KU fan, there are games I really hate watching Hunter both for antics and style purposes. Harris Mayo Griffen Storr Dickinson
