Any idea on the time of his announcement?

Who was it that had the good rumor mill on the players leaving? Nailed a couple before they said (like Greene) and had heard that Svi was checking out as well. Wanted to see if there was any update on the Svi rumor.
|
Shay Wildeboor, who runs the KU Rivals site, is not just giving opinion but outright predicting Kansas. He is certainly making it seem like he has very good reason to do so.
For those who don't know, Shay is actually incredibly reserved when it comes to leaking info. He knew about several players about to commit, had write-ups already prepped with quotes from staff and the kid, but didn't want to steal the spotlight. If he's saying this stuff, then I tend to believe there is OPEN talk that Jackson has already told KU they have the nod. |
Quote:
Josh Jackson might start from Day 1 if he comes here, but there's no doubt Svi is first man off the bench in that case, and I wouldn't be surprised if he opens the season as the starter. Having said that... Svi is actually YOUNGER as a junior than Josh Jackson. Svi might be the most well-designed NBA prospect ever. He's a junior in college that is essentially a high school senior. Usually you have to choose between polish and upside. Not this time, though. |
I've heard, HEARD!! okay, that Svi may consider going pro or going to Europe if, and only if, we get Josh Jackson.
|
Regardless of his choice I can appreciate he's doing it via Twitter.
|
8:30 eastern time.

He'll be announcing at 8:30 eastern via Twitter. Just picked up another crystal ball pick for KU.

Awaiting the tweet. Never thought that would happen five years ago.

Thanks Selden and Greene.

I wonder how Michigan State is handling this one. Not a great month for them.
|
Welp, we're a title contender now.
|
Good get.

This is all what we had figured, but good to hear it is legit. We will have the best backcourt in the country next year. We really need someone to be able to score in the post, that is the only thing that worries me. Lucas scores off of others and as a garbage man. Bragg is a midrange threat but needs to work on his interior moves & strength/mass. Azubuike is really intriguing to me...I really like him for our system. HUGE kid, 7'6'' wingspan, and could really push people around down there.
|
Solid pick up.

Is that the right adjective? |
MSU and Zona fans are, of course, spewing salty shit at Jackson and his mom on Twitter. UK fans even getting in on it. Just because a kid chose to go play college ball somewhere else. Sad.

They say the kid plays with an attitude - which I love.
Hoping Coleby can turn into something productive. I just dont see Lightfoot producing/playing much his freshman year. Hudy needs to get a hold of him. |

As opposed to a Calipari, whose sales pitch is "You don't care about college. Let me get you to the NBA and you're homefree." |

He was spot on with his rumor about Jackson though. So maybe Svi announces soon? |

The announcers kept talking about what a great prospect Svi is. I'm not claiming they are wrong, but his 3 point shooting was inconsistent. I never thought his dribbling against pressure defense or his drive to the basket looked all that great against college competition. I wish him the best, but am puzzled what NBA scouts see. If he goes this year, where do you suppose he will be drafted? |
