I know ESPN rankings aren't a favorite of the people who follow the prospects but...

@PaulBianicardi Our final player rankings from 2017 will be out tomorrow & class rankings. 2018,2019 & 20' will be after the spring evaluation period.

Curious where Wigginton/Lewis move to.
Also if McNeil/Brooks make it.

Lindell Wigginton moves to #37 in ESPN
Terrence Lewis is at #58

I'm still pretty high on getting Brooks. I think having him down low would be fantastic.. essentially hes 6'10, big wingspan.. could be a great asset.

Throw in Juiston, Young, Lard... we could have options.

Egor is a loss, but I'll still take Brown.

Brooks would be great, losing out on Egor definitely makes Edwards look like someone who looks more and more appealing especially if we can't land Brown/Alstork. Updated I think my list goes as

1) Juiston
2) Alstork/Brown (assuming both wouldn't commit)
3) Brooks
4) Morrow

If Alstork and Brown fall through probably Edwards unless we can get in on Cam Johnson

Sign me up for that class. If we were to be lucky enough to land Juiston, Brown or Alstork, and Brooks I'd go with a sitout guard or Edwards over Morrow in a dream scenario.

Ya I thought about that myself, I'm not super sold on Edwards but if we get Brooks I would have no problem going without Morrow, because the below is very very promising

Juniors
-Juiston
Sophs
-Young
Frosh
-Lard
-Brooks

(Left out Ray, don't think he's able to get much PT)

That says 2 things to me
1) Kansas doesn't feel like they are a sure thing with any big they were/are in on
2) Bill Self isn't as good at evaluating talent as Steve Prohm is, so we should see Bill offering a lot of the same kids going forward;)

Bill Self is currently the fourth person trying to squeeze into a three person sidewalk, he's also the one who will just run around and walk in front

with each passing day that goes by without a commitment, I am getting nervous. Hopefully we can get at least one by the end of this week and hopefully 2. Juiston and Brown would be fantastic.

I think we'll know a whole lot more by the middle of next week, and that most things will fall into place fairly rapidly after that.
