The Henry's

[mikeycat]

 610am radio reporting that the Henry brothers are still not fully committed to ku....
..........Kentucky is still a possiblity. This is according to the Henry's father. They are interviewing him at 1pm.

[catdude33]

Feel bad for ku fans.  To pour out so much love for these two when they committed only to have them despise them in return.  A lot of ku fans with very hurt feelings right now.  Be nice to them.

[steve dave]

Feel so sorry for ku fans.  Hang in there guys.  I can't even imagine how I would feel if a KSU recruit and his family completely trashed and humiliated my Cats like the Henrys and their dad (ku ALUM) are doing to their program right now.

[Stupid Fitz]

God I hope they stay committed to uk.  Their dad sounds fantastic, can only imagine what he does/says when he actually gets to lowrents.

I can understand him wanting his kids to go to an elite basketball school like Kentucky though. 

[sonofdaxjones]

There's just not enough financial love coming out of the back rooms of the ku basketball offices right now for the Henry's and they're playing hardball.

I know.  Makes you really sit back and appreciate the overwhelming outpouring of EMAW from an elite level recruit and his family like Michael Beasley.  You just see a kid pour his heart and soul and EMAW into your school and get kind of spoiled by it and think that every elite level recruit is the same.

Not everybody is so lucky..............

I feel real bad, too. Maybe all of us EMAW'ers should pitch in for a gift for ku fans? They need something to lift their spirits.

[Bhyaaaaa!]

Please provide live radio analysis via computer and enternets technology.

Thx.

it's all good. if they feel bad they can air-trip out of lawrence to some hot vacation spot. 


(too forced? yeah. it was. but damnit we have jet service and they don't!!)

Carl Henry went to Kansas.  Kansas is going to be downright awful next year if his son's don't show up

Might need to just start flying out of MHK instead of MCI.

Or, just go MCI-->(long layover, hopefully)MHK-->DFW-->anywhere I fracking want.

 

[steve dave]

Carl Henry went to Kansas. 

Absolutely the most painful part.  I can't even imagine a KSU alum completely sh1tting on Frank like Carl did to Seff. 

 

[catzacker]

I'm assuming 610 is "reporting" things that they know aren't true and then Carl will come on to "clear the air"....this is pretty much just a ploy to get listeners.  Kietz should counter with "today on BTL, Snyder's balls claim they aren't old".

Damnit Zacker don't frack this thread up by being 100% correct in your assessment.

In all seriousness, Doug Compton has to be a busy man right about now.  You gotta imagine the phone lines have been blowing up at First Management all morning over this crisis.



 

[sonofdaxjones]

Agreed . . . no doubt Dougie and the rest of the "Godfathers" are going to be asked to pony up more cash.  Is the entire Henry family moving to Lawrence if they do actually end up there??   

Odds are under the guise of the parents being alums they'll end up with some cushy job, and I can even see a DOBO seat waiting for Carl as this plays out.   Probably a $600K plus house in the mix there somewhere.

They will use the CJ's signing bonus as a cover for paying Xavier to attend ku.  Even though he has likely spent it all.

Apparently, there's a 3:30 Henry family meeting. LJWorld will probably post something soon.

kusports poster who attended some luncheon the massa spoke at:

and Bill Self is PISSED OFF about that article in the Star. Opened his speech that he was in a really bad mood because of what was printed. Said that the article may have damaged the relationship with the Henry family and how it reflects negatively on ku when they had nothing to do with it. Wishes we'd at least "wait till you have em before you bash em." Interesting comments.

Damn, damn the press for printing the truth.

[~WabashRoll~]

Doug.  We need you.

[hillwalking03]

I just hope you all can appreciate the hilarity that is about to ensue on the phog. 

[Oklahoma_Cat]

Could we have a minute-by-minute report of all the phog happenings?  tia

[feralchat]

Great entertainment, especiallly Self and Manning racing to Oklahoma to kiss the Henry family's collective as$. Henrys probably won't answer the door.

Don't enjoy too much. We've been warned karma's a bitçh.

Carl Henry said his family would meet Tuesday night to discuss Xavier and C.J.'s future, the father told 610Sports radio station KCSP on Tuesday.

Carl told the station that it was still possible that one or both of his sons would attend Kentucky.

"We have a meeting set up tonight where we're going to sit down and talk about this whole deal," Carl told 610Sports.

Rivals.com has reported that Carl said Kansas coach Bill Self and assistant coach Danny Manning are headed to Oklahoma City, Okla.

In his interview with 610Sports, Carl said the reason for the family's frustration was a recent story in the Kansas City Star newspaper. According to Carl, the family members believed the story put them in a negative light.

Most funny thing ever.
