Recruiting as of 5/15/25

Yeah Jalen really never appeared as a name until the Fab 4.  It was a "made up" name in the first place - Rose was named after his father James (Jimmy Walker) and uncle Leonard.

Agree with EFR. Cool story behind a unique name.

A few more years, then there will be a bunch of kids in Japan called Auto-Matic.

Jimmy Walker was an outstanding player back in the day.

[Dawson Rental]

Such a huge difference for such a small difference: "Jimmy" vs "Jimmie"

[MomofMUltiples]

and "player" vs "playa"

Fairly confident in saying we've moved on.

Devon Dotson visiting KU Aug 25-27. QG's decision may not come for a long time... or he may say "eff it, we r market"

I think we're very much in play...

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

The kid never misses tho?  Should we re-engage?

Stan invested good time on Jeenathan this summer. Jeenathan has not put out his final list yet. Buzz and Syracuse are aggressively pursuing him as well.

Pre-Joey's commitment.  Unless there is more roster turnover than anticipated, it is doubtful he's a Warrior.

Honest question, did he? I haven't seen us mentioned at any of Jeanathan's games this summer and outside of one article (from May IIRC) I don't remember seeing us mentioned with him. I know we didn't do an in home visit with him back in April but visited a couple of other 2018 recruits. I get the feeling that we have moved on. I definitely agree that he will be a nice player for whoever lands him, maybe even a great player. But I don't think anyone in the 2018 class is getting a call from Wojo and Co until Mr. Grimes commits or moves on.

I am becoming cautiously optimistic about Mr. Grimes. Emphasis on the cautiously.

I  am just reporting what I heard from my contacts upstate regarding Jeenathan. I think a big part of his focus this summer was on where he was going to finish high school and recently selected a prep school in Napa. To be fair, I have not spoken to anyone up there since Joey committed .

On another point , do you think Duane  will be assigned to chaperone Quentin on his official/unofficial at TAMU?

More of a correction from a bad ranking vs. his play dictating it. Have said for 2.5 years Joey looks like a guy belonging in a range of 25 to 45. Still believe that, although he may be closer to the better end of the range.

I'm sure his Syracuse source would be roydanforth or fredlewis66.
