New rivals article on him... he is a 2011 guy though so he wouldnt come in this year.
 
Glad we've offered, but dang, sure would be nice to get him this year. What bigs will we lose after next year? Allen. Maybe Tiny if he comes back.
 
I know his coach moved schools, but why would you transfer JUCO's within the Jayhawk?

Makes zero sense.
 
Cincy and OU offered him, so maybe they know something you don't?

Kansas State, Indiana and Purdue are also involved. He's from Indianapolis I believe, so this may be a tough sign if Indiana/Purdue offer. He has been to two of the better attended games in Norman (Arizona and Texas I believe) this year though so at least he'll have a good opinion of that.

It's something I do know......He's 6'9. Do you see alot of 6'9 guys playing D2 basketball? I did like the way he rebounded, but it was against 9th and 10th graders. Very raw and will not be an instant contributor anywhere he goes. I know the Juco vs. Prep debate has gone back and forth, but the prerequisite for any Junior College Player is that they should be an instant contributor. That is even more the case with the predicament OU is in. Also, junior college guards have always been ahead of the curve in comparison to Junior college bigs. That's because the Juco game is very guard oriented. If I were to grade Goff on a scale between Taj Gray and Aaron Pettway, well....

Pettway was the most over-hyped Jayhawk player ever.
 
he was just overted by the osu staff. No one else felt he wAs great.

Pettway's offers were 2 schools coming off the FF and a traditional power. I'd say a few schools thought he was pretty good.

May not make sense but it happens more frequently than you would think...same for the bi-state...

List looks similar to Goff. One thing about Pettway was he was from the South. He was from Georgia which atributed to the southern interest. Other thing was he was 6'10. As I said with Goff, alot of 6'9 plus guys are going to get major offers. That's why we got Allen.

My big fear is Aziz. If you look at alot of the African players who started the game late, some of those guys were ranked very high, but in the end, ended up being non productive on the court. John Riek and Ater Majok were both ranked 5* prospects by Rivals. Riek was ranked the number one player.
 
My point exactly. Hopefully their are good things going on that we don't know about, but all the activity that has gone on with all of the major recruits have not had OU mentions involved.

But to answer your question, Daniel West, a juco guard from Pensacola and Tyler Neal, a wing from PC West. Personally, think their is a juco forward instate that would be a good get. And we're all just waiting and watching with Jones and AZIZ.
