Not sure what purpose of this visit, we have higher level at big on radar. Could it be to make movement? Guy is big body for the inside.

Well that should have been obvious. Remember how every single recruit drops in the rankings when they commit to Illinois? That's proof!
No Sow nor Finke!! Conditt??

Finke was 91 on their last ranking. So definitely he and THT going in opposite directions. Tim dropped at least 59 spots and THT jumped 48. Don't think Conditt or Sow have ever been in their top 150.
And I won't need to read this board if Self grabs Ayo. It'll just sound a lot like this:

So does Kansas still have room for Dotson and Williamson?
Yeah that's ugly. I think people underrate how incredible Kansas's campus and that facility specifically for basketball players are.

Looks like they have 2 open spots even if Preston doesn't go pro after this year.
Dotson has a clear path to KU if he acts soon, but he's decided to visit FL this weekend and said he may take a couple of more visits. De Sousa verballed Sunday before he left KU. It was his first OV and was planned just days before.
We have been there many times, and will probably be there again in the near future.

There's no probably about it. We will be there again. If we want to play with the big boys then we will have to recruit with the big boys. When you do that, the fact is that the big boys will win more often than not, at least until you achieve big boy status yourself. Let's just hope it doesn't happen with Ayo.
I more so meant probably about the near future, not that it might happen or might not. If will most definitely happen, like you said.

He's big, but playing against such small people. No effort made on blocking out, setting position, footwork is hardly there.... If this is a highlight film, all it screams is he is big.

You can't teach size. You can teach boxing out.
Or it could be DeSouza commit, lack of bigs available, trying to push some other bigs with offers to decide, and realizing we need more bigs than guards/wings and we are late in the game already?
That said, would still like Ayo/Nolley, with 2 bigs as preferred, Pearson, Conditt possibly?
JFG begs to differ.
Wow dude, where have you been?
i think pearson already cut us...or perhaps it was joint choice?

I said you can teach boxing out. I didn't say bigs will magically learn how on their own.
He didn't really have any real interest from us. If we really have a lot of our targets fall through we might be able to get back in on Pearson.
Well I was banned for a month and also run my own company so there's that...Pearson might be out, but never say never...
Ayo, Nolley, Ignas, Conditt? I like that group a lot better anyway!

we might have high ranked guys , but after watching some of his clips he seems to have the most skilled offence game other then Conditt, has really nice touch out to about 15 foot
I'm hoping for Ayo, THT, Nolley, and Conditt. Yea, only one big and he is kind of raw, but we will hopefully still have Finke and Black next year. Then watch out when they get Okoro and Liddell in 19
