Kansas Crimson

Welp.
On to the next.

Some actual KUBB highlights in August.

Not sure how good the competition is, but I've always liked how well Gradey moves for his size.

So size matters and how you use it matters

Dick's been good there.

wtf since when did we recruit guys who can score off the bounce?

Not mentioned but blackmild was kinda wrong.
Keyonte George, no. 2 overall, went to Baylor.

Let’s talk scouting report on this guy. and in no way making more sophomoric jokes.

Cuz I like his handles…balls seem to stay close to Dick as he goes up hard to score

kid has skills regardless of the talent he’s playing against in those clips

Yeah he does. Moves well. Seems smooth and coordinated. That steal and quick dish suggests court vision and bbiq too.

Dick got up there

#4 for US is Keyonte Goerge--really good.

that Dick has me excited

Saw Gradey at the Dillions down the street from Sunrise yesterday afternoon; he's a big kid...bigger than I imagined, anyways.

When you see Dick at the grocery store

Has big feets, fwiw...

Early ESPN team rankings:

2. Kansas Jayhawks

While Bill Self has built one of the best rosters in college basketball this season by conquering the transfer market, he once again has the Jayhawks recruiting the high school market at an elite national level. It began with a commitment from local Kansas product Gradey Dick last spring. Dick will provide them with a productive and reliable big wing who is proven against elite competition and well-rounded with his floor game. M.J. Rice gives them a power wing with an improved skill level. He'll remind Jayhawk fans of Wayne Selden a little bit and provide an ideal complement to Dick on the wing. Zuby Ejiofor is a throwback-style power forward who could play some small ball 5 in the modern game. He's powerful, explosive and ultra-aggressive with a high motor.

psych!!

Kentucky has enough elite recruits for '22. Hopefully we can land this kid.
