Offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds, total rebounds, assists, steals, turnovers, 3-pt shooting all got worse, despite playing more minutes.

How do guys who stay for three or four years at KU seem to always get drastically better? Guys who came in with little fanfare like Mason and Graham become All Americans. I was laughed off the board last summer by tons of posters when I put stock in what he said about how McCullar would make a huge leap offensively, specially with his shooting. There are plenty of other teams where similar things happen … guys play ok early in their career, but their skills improve and when they get a chance to play more or take on added responsibilities later in their career, they are ready for it and thrive. Houston is a great example of this. Gonzaga is another. It’s not just blue bloods and elite programs, either. It’s fairly common to hear about guys making “the leap” from one year to the next. So yes, I’d say those guys are developing.
Reporter is Eric Bossi.A 247 reporter is reporting that Jeremiah Fears, a combo guard ranked 38th in the 2025 class, just decommitted from Illinois and is rumored to have OU in his top group. The reporter also stated there are a bunch of rumors Fears might reclassify to 2024. If so, would we be able to take him? Aren’t we full?
His steals went from 2.2 per game to 1.5. His turnovers went up by 50 percent. His assists and rebounds decreased despite an increase in playing time. So again, which number that I posted is “false?”False. He had 2 more steals and shot the 3 better at Duke and his turnovers were worse at ou.
At ou, he shot the ball way better overall from the field and from the FT. He had more of every other stat and nearly tripled his scoring.

We currently have a roster that is universally considered to be near the bottom of our league, and have multiple guys who are likely to not contribute at all. If he is legitimately interested, you find a way to make room.Bossi reporting that OU is a legitimate option for Jeremiah Fears, who recently decommitted from IL and is considering reclassifying to the 2024 class.

Talented guard Jeremiah Fears decommits from Illinois: Intel on reclassification, rumors on next destination
Rising senior guard Jeremiah Fears has decommitted from Illinois and could be looking to reclassify.247sports.com
In response to UK reaching out to Fears, Bossi commented: "Not sure UK is going to be able to meet the playing time and freedom as a handler that Fears is looking for in order to reclass. He wants to have the opportunity to have the ball in his hands day one"
If push came to shove I would think they could find some NIL dollars and move someone to walkon status ..(see godwin, sam)A 247 reporter is reporting that Jeremiah Fears, a combo guard ranked 38th in the 2025 class, just decommitted from Illinois and is rumored to have OU in his top group.

I agree.If playing time is what he wants, we have plenty. I’d be just fine letting him have the ball instead of Kobe.
Reid gonna have to get real familiar with the washers and dryers if Fears actually wants to come.Porter to Jake...
"Son, I love you. You know that, right? Anyway, you know how I'm on the hot seat? I'm going to need you to transition into a student coaching role while I clear a spot for one more impact player. I'll buy you another car or something. Sound good?"
Just kidding, probably.
I get a little break and come back to people ignoring all my hard work!? How dare all of you...
jk.
Here are the numbers for "improvement under Moser" from the portal:
*Result for the Before OU to Last OU is in the last column with a "blank" label. Making him 8-4-2 in better, worse, same

(Here, Moser is 2-1-3 in development record, giving him an overall of 10-5-5)
All the above can be found on my google sheets:
