So..where are we getting this scholarship from?
-
Kent/Yearby?
-
perplexing. :confused:
-
we already had an extra to give. We're full now.

Young
Stew
Hoskins
Kent
Yearby
Colon
GRCOAT (8 members now)
= 14 scholarships

My guess is either Yearby is xferring or someone has not qualified from the early signing period. <gasp>Please don't let it be Beasy</gasp>
-
Could it be a "Ray Brewer" type scenario?

Oh sh1t.

Don't even joke around about that mcmwcat.

i would have preferred soto. do we need another 6-7 guy?

If he can play at all, a 6-7 guard is nice, and would create a lot of match up problems. Plus, we will need some extra size when Beasley and Walker most likely go pro after next year.

point noted, but we aren't in on any quality pg's next year in the 08 class (as far as i know) - just more swingmen...
-
I would think that Beasley will show. He and Bill Walker are really good friends and he played AAU ball with Sutton and Samuels, and most importantly he and Hill are like family. I feel certain that Michael will be here next fall. I would guess that Yearby is gone...

:ohno:
We still haven't heard about his test scores yet, have we....
-
I've been hearing that the coaching staff is trying to find Yearby a scholarship at another school so he can transfer.

I don't mind him transfering, but I still don't want Gilbert.
-
Gilbert, Samuels AND Dubovitsky all on the same day? This is borderline stupid (in a good way)!
:ksu:
-
Just looked at his stats from South Dakota State. Not liking this.
-
This guy sucks on so many different levels.
-
I could be wrong and the coaches are a lot smarter than I, However...
Doesn't it seem like Gilbert is just failing upwards?
-
The more I read about Andre Gilbert, the more I start to question why we are clearing a scholarship for him...

:confused:
-
He has to more of a long defensive player like Akeem.
Thats what latest gopo magazine said.
I don't know anything about the other SG from cali juco. He was supposed to be good.
-
Defense shmefense.
:sleep:
-
i don't understand this commit. and it sort of scares me a bit.
-
Gilbert sounds a lot like Yearby, only with a dismissed rape charge. Maybe a shoe is about to drop and we'll soon be hearing the Real Truth about 'vez and the belt incident.
-
If Deilvez leaves and we do replace Glibert with him it's just a positive, Deilvez sucks big time.
Bye Bye Deilvez
Deilvez = Wooly Recruit
-
If Deilvez leaves than our 2007-2008 Rosters is the most athletic roster probably ever!!!!!!
It was all said and done when Coach Baker, Yearby's old high school coach left, he quit playing & wasn't given an upper hand.

i swear gpc is the smarter board lately.

We haven't really gotten anyone that will help us much next season, except maybe VD.

i feel a lot better with d'sky and stewart than just stewart. but, neither one is an evans obviously.
-
I think Samuels is a good pickup too, maybe not impactful this season, but by next year. But why the &@#% did we get Gilbert? The guy's other college choice listed on Rivals was Bradley. OMG!
-
I'd subscribe to the thought that beyond next year is a greater concern than next year at this point.

Ben Kelso was Yearby's coach in HS. Coach Baker (and his imaginary friend) were here for most, if not all, of Wooly's tenure.

The new staff has just had its' first Ron Prince Moment. Reminicent of the Freeze/Kirk commitments of 06.
-
My hope on Gilbert is that our staff sees him as our next Akeem.
Most people thought Wright was a reach (of course it was a different situation) when we signed him too. He was a no star player who had offers from LaSalle, MidTennSt, WSU, Pacific, and Baylor. Gilbert is a no star player had offers from Bradley and Utah Valley St.
-
IMO...Gilbert is an upgrade from Yearby. The scholly is only used 2 years, gives us some height as well as the ability to gaurd some bigger players. Yes his stats aren't that impressive, but the dude was playing w/an injured shoulder that required surgery. Much better use of a scholarship than yearby.
Beasides what's eating Gilbert Grape?

Just ignore the "KSUSports" and catsfan post. Then please revise your post. Thx.

Gilbert's coach said he had 15 different coaches calling about him. So he's a guy that was getting some late notice BallPlayers indicated at one point that he's a solid late pick-up with a good offensive game that can come in and be a role player. It's not like we're counting on him to come in and average 15 per game, if we get anything out of this kid it will be more then what Yearby or an empty ship would give us. If things don't work out and he sucks then you can run him off after the season and just give out the ship next year anyway. I don't really see a lot of risk in taking him.

i can buy that to an extent (though i liked wright as a recruit, and thought his size and stats looked ok), but gilbert, is what, ksu's 8th 3 now? how is adding a reach recruit at the only position ksu has depth at going to impact the game?
at least yearby's skillset, to the extent that he had one, was different than what over half the team has.
-
I don't understand this signing. He's definitely an upgrade from Yearby, but I'm guessing the coaches could've scouted the rec to get an upgrade from Yearby. The next Akeem? That's fine, although I thought the point was to get better. Akeem was never indicted for rape so maybe Gilbert is an upgrade. Also, at some point we're going to have to pay up for kids leaving, even if they leave in good academic standing, but I guess we cross that bridge when we get there.
-
if he's the next akeem, we'll still be getting better because he'll be akeem coming off the bench instead of akeem starting.
