Kansas guard AJ Storr is entering the transfer portal,  has learned. Storr is a former four-star recruit who played one season at St. John’s, one at Wisconsin and then last season at Kansas. Native of Rockford, Illinois. Averaged 6.1PPG this season.

 

Have suitcase; will travel.  Wire Storr.

To Ole Miss

Assuming Conerway commits this week, a 3&D as your 3rd guard/wing and a big with size and strength who can defend the rim for ~20 mpg need to be the biggest priorities.

Conerway

Wilkerson

3 and D

DeVries

Bailey

Would make an incredible and efficient offense to watch. Do still need to add some levels of size and athleticism however.

Hopefully, some of them will have multiple years of eligibility left. I know there is a need to win immediately but we also don't want a total rebuild again next year. I think maybe another 4 players from the transfer portal and a couple more freshmen will be what it ends up being. 

It's nice seeing some of the names being mentioned now do have multiple years left.

Overton and the kid from North Florida visiting today as that 3rd wing spot make sense as they have both have multiple years of eligibility left. The JUCO kid is intriguing to me although I'm not sure I'd be totally confident with him in that first big off the bench role. 

But the roster is coming together and Wilkerson and DeVries are two players who you can absolutely build a successful team around.

I think Miles slots in there perfectly

A.J. Storr may drive Chris Beard to drink....more.

Every coach thinks they’re the guy who can pull it all together for a kid.

I know nothing at all about this kid's overall game but wonder if there will be any IU interest with Drew Adams now on board.

Cincinnati guard Daniel Skillings Jr. plans to enter the transfer, he tells @TheAthleticCBB He averaged of 9.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game Skillings Jr. is a former top 100 recruit

The 6-6 guard with a 7-2 wingspan lead the Bearcats in points, rebounds, and blocks as a sophomore last season — earning All-Big 12 Honorable Mention honors.

Or Someone who missed on a target upped the ante.  LOL.  I guess we will find out soon.  Truly wild wild west behavior

Yep, I don't think it's a coincidence it happened after Wilkerson's commitment. I think he'll end up at UK.

Ironic... would that be considered "tampering"? Are schools allowed to contact players signed to another school? Or is it only "tampering" when UK says it is? What a load of horse manure...

Your question incorrectly assumes there are enforced rules.

Can't you get around this just by contacting the player's agent and not the player? This used to be done all the time but with the AAU or HS coach of the player.

Looks like he's trying to add some retainable,  potential 26-27' starters. Tough needle to thread. Both of those guys would be valuable rotation pieces.
