So. what is that supposed to mean.Just look at his recruiting timeline.
He hasn't even picked a school yet. There are almost certainly issues that have to be cleared up for him to be eligible as a transfer, especially immediately. CLassses start in Lawrence on August 21.
This all feels very sketchy, even by the dingy standards of Kansas under Bill Self. At least he hasn't assaulted anyone, as far as we know.
Agree.This all feels very sketchy, even by the dingy standards of Kansas under Bill Self
Why does it "feel sketchy"? The kid went to WKU because of familial relationship. This person left. So he wants to go somewhere else. Happens all the time.
a) He won't be eligible this year
b) He won't pass on the draft in '18
c) Cliff Alexander and Cheik Diallo
Relax.
Robinson was committed to Texas AM where Stansbury recruited him as an assistant. He then switched to WKU after Stansbury left AM for there. Shammond Williams was an assistant at Tulsa. If he only went to WKU because of Williams, why wasn't he committed to Tulsa before WKU? Yes I think he was hired with the intent to help lock up Robinson, but no one mentions he was previously committed to Stansbury
Yep.Not to mention the Lawsons are overrated as hell and bring baggage.
I don't know why more top recruits don't go the direction of Brandon Knight. Don't sign a LOI so you're free to leave if something happens.
Next time I see a KU fan out in public, I'm going to tell them I am about to punch'em in the mouth, because I don't want it to be a sucker punch.
Sucker punch or not, just save the girl.
He won't get eligibleHe has been released from Western Kentucky and will be eligible immediately because Bill Self is Bill Self.
I just can't get over how shady things seem to be in Lawrence, Kansas. And there's not even that many shade trees there, from what I've been told.
If you sign scholarship papers, enroll in classes and practice with a team, I think that pretty much binds you to a school for a year though.
This isn't just committing and signing and then the coach leaves in march before anyone arrives on campus.
The question here seems to be, if you love Rick bleeping Stansbury so much that you commit to Western for him, how does that go sour before football season even starts?

Bill Self is a modern day Jerry Tarkanian. Old Tark the shark said he loved getting transfers because their cars are already paid for. Apparently Self must feel this way as well. After all him & Tarkanian are cut from the same cloth. This way Self & KU can use their money to bail their scummy thugs that they recruit out of jail.Could Kansas actually have an entire starting 5 of transfers next year?

I don't mind opposing fans so long as they post respectfully. As for your numbers, that is actually a huge difference.I try not to be a homer when I post and when I do post over here I try to be respectful. I have never denied that UK's success especially in the tournament far outweighs KU's. But the flaming out early thing does bug me. Below is UK's and KU's early exits since the tournament expanded to 64 teams:
UK:
1st round losses - 2
2nd round losses - 6
KU:
1st round losses - 3
2nd round losses - 9
Kentucky did not make the tournament 5 times during that period and Kansas only missed it 1 time.
Not much of a difference when you look at the numbers. KU has flamed out when they shouldn't of but the tournament is tough and takes a lot of luck to win.
Here's to hoping we see you guys in the Championship game next April!
Have a great weekend!
.Agree with this, but the NCAA gave Braxton Beverly an exemption when he left OSU. He will be eligible at NC State this year. Same circumstances? Have no idea.
UNCheat has no shooters outside Berry, they get Johnson. Kansas has no inside depth, they get a Top 10 Robinson. Now we just need Duke to get Bagley.
Why can't we have nice things?
My question is why we didn't go all in for him ?
Last I heard braxton will have to sit out because he took summer classes at Ohio St.. Unless that's changed in the past 3-4 days...
Braxton beverly got an exemption because matta retired. Robinson enrolled in classes and just left. He will sit a year. Without a doubt
Glad you're not trying to be a homer. Look at how far the 2 teams have advanced recently homer...um I meanI try not to be a homer when I post and when I do post over here I try to be respectful.

Robinson has the same rights as other athletes. He is just 1 player.He has been released from Western Kentucky and will be eligible immediately because Bill Self is Bill Self.
I was only going on the information provided by the poster in the quote above my response. The point being is that IF Beverly is indeed given an exemption it would be due to the kid losing the coach he originally signed with. Robinson has no such excuse and will sit for the year due to attending classes and enrolling which he most definitely shouldLast I heard braxton will have to sit out because he took summer classes at Ohio St.. Unless that's changed in the past 3-4 days..
Because we only recruit amateurs.My question is why we didn't go all in for him ?
What, the 30+ NBA draft picks since Cal's been here and half-dozen super max guys in the NBA didn't cut it for you?
