Really? I don't follow recruiting closely so I had to go look at what you're talking about. Why would you say its garbage. I see a bunch of 3 star guys with a couple 2 stars and one 4 star. At least according to Rivals.

He's never said anything positive about Kansas.

Why would you expect something to change now?

I just want straight stuff, no bullshit. I don't want to hear overly homeristic stuff, either.

Dylan Admire decommitted from Nebraska and signed on with KU.

Darrian Miller chose KU over Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.

Damon Martin chose KU over Arizona and Utah, etc...

Is KU beating guys out over Texas and Oklahoma? No.

But they are making some good pickups with local guys and that's where it begins. TG is not going the route of picking up the leftovers from Texas like Mangino did.

I don't know if this strategy is going to get KU to winning 3 bowls in 4 years including a BCS bowl but that's not my job, it's the head coach's.

I wouldn't worry what a KSU fan says though. Snyder is back to relying on JuCo's to win and it's unproven that that can work these days when all the other schools are trying as hard as they are (MU, KU, ISU, etc...)

I think JUCOs are okay as supplemental players. You can use them to fill in a spot here and there. But it is not wise to have to mainly rely on JUCOs. KSU got into trouble with Prince because they had way to many JUCOs, IMO.

And they are hit and miss. Probably mostly miss. Cam Newton is the exception (a huge one at that) to the rule.

I hate HATED getting all excited for the JuCo's KU has brought in over the years. Joque Crawford? Sucked Quinton Woods? Sucked Nathan D'Cunha? I don't even think he ever played...

Kendrick Harper and Rojas are examples of guys who have been solid additions but I'm just generally not a fan of moving that direction...

Good thing we aren't relying on JUCO's.

3 of the 4 JC guys (Tuggle is the lone exception) on our Verbal list are sign and place kids. 2 of those 3 (Meshack Williams -DE, and Marcus Kennard - WR) should end up being being JC AA's . On the current list, I'd suggest Brandon Mickens (DE) and Lamonte Clark (DT) will both be sign and place HS kids.

Iowa pulled Miller's offer, about a week after he visited. Supposedly some of the Iowa players convinced the coaching staff to pull his offer after sharing their feelings about him. They said their were some sort of personality conflicts. Oh, and then there is the fact that the home state school didn't even offer him.

Not sure I would brag about him choosing KU.

When I started on this board Saul actually liked KU. He couldn't handle the ridicule that comes with rooting for both schools so he stuck with KSU and tries hard to bash KU.

Is this true? Dang, I wish I was here to witness that.
