somewhat related, Tang mentioned in the KCSN podcast that he believes in the next two weeks, the "better players" will be entering the portal and are the ones the coaches don't want them to leave. take that for what it's worth. Topic starts around 8 min in.

Thanks! Good listen. I do feel like they asked the same question like 8 different times on that, but I see where they were trying to go with it.

Also, I can't believe Scottwildcat turned those dudes down. That Network is flying.

2023. NOT A DUDE

How exactly is a 4* top 150 guy not a dude? Watch his tape. Would be a very good get and may even put us in with some of his teammates.
He's non of those things on rivals. Dudes that we were sold on, are blue chippers. These are not dudes. These are reactions to mass kayos(?) from everyone leaving.

No serious person that follows recruiting uses Rivals. Goodness

I mean, there'd be no 247 without rivals laying the foundation, but sure.

What does that prove? Rivals has been the least reliable recruiting service for about a decade now. Calm down man.

Pretty late in the game to be dude shopping at this point.

You must see a different transfer portal than me.

Lmao, this dude def didn’t listen to Tang say explicitly that the real dudes would be entering the portal closer to the deadline anyway, and that most of the players in the portal now are there because parting ways w/ their former teams was at best a mutual decision.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I don't care what the ratings were of oscar's recruits were. He and his staff were either horrendous at evaluation, landing the plane, or both. I also won't give a damn about the number of stars of Tang's recruits either. Kansas, Baylor, and Tech all had teams that way over performed what their recruiting rankings indicated that they should have. Those staffs do a good job with evaluation, getting the players they identify, and development. I don't know why we're acting like Tang was out recruiting Duke and Kentucky while he was at Baylor, he wasn't.

Yeah, I expect to finish top half of the conference regardless of how the recruiting class is evaluated, and will start wondering when we will get a new coach every time we fail to do that.

On one hand, eff you, Grambling. But also remembering KU was the first to offer Abagaji the second semester of he senior year.

Probably will work out better than Huggies first recruit Jason Bennett (bennett, hell he broke it).

It's weird that the Grambling offer stands out to you more than the Houston one does. I think that Sampson dude knows what he's doing.

I frankly didn't see the Houston offer. That's comforting. A&M, too. I like Buzz. Before took his current job, he was one of the coaches I thought of when Oscar cultists whined "but who are we going to get to replace him?"

Just to be clear I think we should focus on getting dudes and not some guy that's just going to end up working at the mall at some chiosk (?) selling phone cases
