Mervyn Lindsay official visit on 6/13

[GGGG]

Well, Buzz looks like he is going to be banking at least one this year.  I would be extremely surprised if he used both of them by this point.  Last year, the Wilson transfer was announced in June.  When is the last time we have signed a new freshman this late?

According to Twitter:
Merv Lindsay to pick a school on Wed.

We shall soon see if we have one open schollie or two.  I, for one, am hoping he takes one. 

[BCHoopster]

I hope he picks Kansas!

[brewcity77]

If Bill Self thinks he's good enough to play for Kansas, isn't that a pretty solid indicator that he's good enough to at least get a shot at Marquette?

we are loaded at his position, we need some meat for the Big Easy!

I have neveer seen Lindsay play. However, he is a guard who keeps getting taller. Kind of reminds me of Jon Leuer. We could use a big guy with guard skills. I think he is worth a shot and hope we sign him.

Not sure if Marquette has offered him or not to this point.

Think he'd still take an official with us without us offering?  I don't follow recruiting very closely, so I don't know how frequently that happens.

Last year we had David Hahn visit and we never offered him.

Where do people think we don't have enough bodies to practice?  C'mon...if Buzz thinks we need another, just get another walk-on.

Some people here will find anything to worry about.

12 healthy D1 bodies are enough.  11 is playing with fire.  I don't consider a walk-on as a D1.  Kids do get hurt.  I take us back 24 months.  We were limited in practice all year with JC and Otule hurt and Maymon heading out the door around 12/1. 

My bottom line, ink one; bank one unless you KNOW 2 studs are on the way from the 2012 class.  Only then would I consider taking a chance.

[BCHoopster]

You need a power forward to take Crowders position, so whoever that is will probably start, would not surprise me
if a JC kid gets that.  Now you have Kris Dunn or Gabe York,  might get one of those.  I hate after a year (if they
all want to comeback) have to tell a kid, sorry you were one and done.  If that is how you want to treat young
adults, then go ahead and sign 2 more kids.  I am still old fashion and want kids for 4 years, not one.

If he is 6'7" and still growing with an outside shot, who says he can't become a Lazar Hayward or Jon Leuer?  He might not, but he might.  I'll defer to Buzz and Bill Self on that one?  

Leuer was never a banger and Lazar was 6'5" in shoes.  However, those 2 guys played the 4 pretty effectively in college.  Not everyone fits into a pre-defined role, especially for Buzz.

If he can rebound, guard, dribble and shoot from distance he can get playing time in our system.  We already know he is a long, lanky switchable with an outside shot.

Anyone know what time he'll announce?

[MU_Iceman]

Anyone know what time he'll announce?

Or if we even offered?

[GGGG]

According to his Twitter account, his flight from Florida to CA has been delayed and he was tweeting Tyshawn Taylor back and forth about it.

Read into it what you will.

Swervyn' Mervyn Just committed to KU.

[bilsu]

It will be interesting to follow his career there. Certainly a lot of posters did not want him here.

And many more did not want him at KU.
