This roster feels far from complete.
Athletic as hell though. Going to be a lot of dunks. We know Paul and Kohl will play hard.
I think they’ll at least be entertaining.

Final word on Melvin is no go?

@Kcmatt7 last years team was easy to root for when they were playing hard. If these guys can go consistently and not be jekyl and hyde, even if they have a known ceiling I can be a happy fan.

WooHoo just found out he picked us! #RockChalk I think he got nothing but love from KU fans and a host of bad taunts by UK fans. He asked them to back off saying he was just an 18 year old making a big decision. Our fans had class and respect and proved it by the number of likes he got on social media. We just represent the best in basketball, after all the inventor of the game was our first Coach. I think he will leave a mark. He saw how it went with DP. Knows what comes with the territory. #RockChalk
Hannah just spotted 2 foxes! -

Stokes and Self feel like oil and water, but winning solves all… Hoping for the best.
Self loves this shit. Norm said as much on a pod recently.

He sure seems to. I don’t get it, but maybe he’s just a masochist

@BShark stokes picked KU mainly cause of Coach Self!
-
Can we please have a talent like this that pays off in terms of a run deep into the tournament? Like Wiggins/Embiid/DP never did? I mean Danny Manning did, but that was. a while ago and he stuck around for 4 years.
-
Roster updated!
As far as i can tell, we have 11 players. that includes one walk on dude, but i'm not sure if he's coming back.
That gives us 4 roster spots to fill.

Goodman comments on what kind of player Stokes is.

Something I was thinking about recently is that he once had Josh Jackson, Lagerald Vick and Carlton Bragg on the same roster. So I think he can handle the upcoming roster, hopefully.

I just wish effin' Self could recruit. This team build is hopelessly bad. I give up on KU basketball.
Just to paraphrase comments I have read here.....
-
@mayjay does this look like a good roster? Feels pretty rough. There are worse things than the number one recruit of course.
-
I’m happy we got him. However the season turns out next year, it will be interesting and entertaining, possibly maddening as well. If you want to feel a bit better about our situation check out Rupp Rafters

Maybe this one won't be a giant puss.

After how last year went with the number 1 guy, I can blame one for being cautious. I still stand behind me saying it was a bubble team without Stokes. We are probably a safe bet to make the NCAA Tournament with this roster but I see no chance in competing for a Natty or even conference title at this point.
-
Also it's a top 15 roster right now analytically. If you add Vyctorius Miller it jumps into the top 10 comfortably.
-
@kjayhawks2.0 I wouldn't say bubble team because of Bill Self and they would have got someone else but I think it would have been fringe top 25. Not great at all but not in danger of missing the tournament. Stokes raises the ceiling significantly.
-
They’ll keep expanding the tournament field dont worry. We can make it past the first weekend soon hahaha
