Latest news and updates about the Kansas
Although we should stress that we haven’t seen anything official about this, there have been a lot of posts over the last 24 hours or so suggesting that Duke and Kansas will have an exhibition game in Allen Fieldhouse this fall. And the following year, that favor will reportedly be returned with a trip to […]
As you probably have heard, Duke will be visiting Kansas this fall for an exhibition game. This program has been playing basketball for 120 years, and has been to Lawrence exactly once, in 1988. To give that some perspective, in 1988, Mike Krzyzewski had taken Duke to one Final Four. There was no obvious indication […]
IU basketball is reportedly in discussions to join an eight-team event that could debut in 2027 titled the “Diamond Cup.” Matt Norlander of CBSSports.com reported that IU, along with Arizona, Gonzaga, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, North Carolina and UConn, are in ... The post Report: IU basketball in discussions to join eight-team “Diamond Cup” in 2027-28 season appeared first on Inside the Hall | Indiana Hoosiers Basketball News, Recruiting and Analysis .
In an official statement, Kevin Willard said, “This is a great opportunity for two elite programs to start a kid series and play home and home.” The addition of Kansas to the out-of-conference schedule leaves Villanova with neutral site games against Notre Dame (in Rome) and Wisconsin (Xfinity Mobile Arena), a home game against Michigan, […]
As you’ve probably heard, Bill Self landed the top recruit in the country Tuesday night. That comes in the form of Tyran Stokes, a 6’7, 240 pound “point forward” type of player who will likely be considered the team’s starting small forward. Stokes is a beast, physically. He has the build to overpower defenders even […]
Yesterday was a busy day for UNC basketball. Michael Malone had three players publicly commit to come to Chapel Hill next year in roughly an eight-hour span. First, Utah point guard Terrence Brown chose UNC over fellow blueblood contenders Kansas and Kentucky. Shortly afterwards, N.C. State freshman guard Matt Able chose to play at UNC […]
Last week, your Georgetown Hoyas added a commitment from Kansas guard Elmarko Jackson. He is 6’ 3”, 195 pounds and very athletic, and shot 37.2% from 3 and 82.4% from the line last year. Entering college, his composite recruiting ranking was #21, higher than any high school recruit the program has seen this century. He […]
It’s been a bit of an eventful week for the Mizzou Basketball team. On Monday, Tennessee transfer post Jaylen Carey committed to the Tigers. Then on Tuesday, Providence transfer wing Jamier Jones did the same. Not to be outdone, then Kansas transfer post Bryson Tiller cross the border to commit to the good guys. Missouri […]
Fire up Mr. Brightside! Boy, it’s a rare situation for us to be celebrating a Kansas player, but in this case it’s at least a former KU player. But for every story, it’s not often how you begin but how you end, and now it’s official that Bryson Tiller will no longer be remembered as […]
Every year, a graphic like this pops up, and it always gets the debate flowing. It’s the ultimate barroom debate: Who is a “Blue Blood,” who is just “Great,” and who is living in the “Basement?” But look closely at Tier 1. You see the usual suspects: Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina, Kansas, and UCLA. Now […]
People tend to look at coaches like Roy Williams and Mike Krzyzewski and just assume that they were always going to be great. They forget about the struggles. It took Coach K a few years to establish his Duke program, and plenty of people wanted him gone before he did. Roy Williams took the Kansas […]
Greetings, BBN! Transfer portal madness is in full swing now that the portal has officially opened, and the Kentucky Wildcats continue to reach out to many of the best players in it thus far. So, we want to see which current transfer you’d really like to see Mark Pope and Co. land. Kansas center Flory […]
Look, as far as couch-bound talent evaluators go, I haven’t been the most pro-Peterson scout during his freshman season at Kansas. The off-court issues left many — including myself — questioning his motives, drive to compete, and overall health as he withdrew from games on his own accord and constantly battled nagging injuries from the […]
We’re continuing to monitor the Tyran Stokes recruitment, as there are rumors circulating that Stokes could make a decision at tomorrow’s McDonalds All-American Game. Stokes, the top-ranked player in the 2026 class, is reportedly deciding between Kansas and Kentucky. Kentucky was thought to be the leader in his recruitment back in the fall, but the […]
The No. 1 overall player in the 2026 class, Tyran Stokes, may announce his college commitment at the McDonald’s All-American Game on Tuesday, March 31, in Glendale, Arizona, according to Joe Tipton of On3. Kansas is still viewed as the leader in the recruitment, though uncertainty surrounding Bill Self’s future with the Jayhawks could shake […]
When a college basketball fan thinks of the sport, it’s hard not to start with the Blue Bloods. Kentucky. North Carolina. Duke. Kansas. UCLA. All of these programs together — with possibly the recent surge from UConn — write most (if not all) of the history of college basketball. St. John’s head coach Rick Pitino […]
This year’s Sweet 16, which is now underway, is unlike any other in the last 72 years of college basketball. This is the first Sweet 16 since 1954 that does not include Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina, or UCLA. It was a rough year for those four blue-blood college basketball programs, with a lot of ups […]
Sunday was Fun Day in the NCAA Tournament with two stunning buzzer beaters. First, St. John’s knocked off Kansas on a layup by Dylan Darling with 3.6 seconds left. Then Iowa shocked the basketball world with a corner three by Alvaro Folgueiras that sent defending champion Florida home. For much of the first game, neither […]
Whistle, whistle, whistle. Kansas was content to burn its remaining fouls to give, denying Dylan Darling from advancing the ball past the timeline over and over again. This final possession re-told Darling’s frustrating night, who was held scoreless and missed all four of his shot attempts to that point. The Red Storm let momentum slip […]
We’ll use this as the open thread for the two games before Kansas plays, then we’ll have a thread for KU, and another thread for the late games. This is the most game threads I’ve ever created
Welcome to the thread for Sunday’s NCAA Tournament game between St. John’s and Kansas, where the winner advances to face 1-seed Duke in the Sweet Sixteen. Please be respectful in the comment section and do not share any illegal streams of the game. You can follow updates of this game on Rumble in the Garden’s […]
It’s here. Kansas is playing their first (and hopefully not last) NCAA Tournament game. If you want to learn a little more about the opponent, check out my complete preview of tonight’s game here Rock Chalk!
If the Jayhawks want to avoid being the victim of a major first round upset today, they’ll need to get past 13 seed Cal Baptist. The Lancers are 25-8 this year, after going 13-5 in WAC play. The most important thing to know about the Lancers is far and away their 5’10 point guard, Dominique […]
Kansas has a shot at making the Big 12 championship game, but they’ll have to get through Houston first. Houston is a 5.5 point favorite, and the game will be broadcast on ESPN. The game will also be played on a standard hardwood court. Rock Chalk!
The kid Kansas… is now the Big Ten’s best freshman. After a historic first season in Champaign, Keaton Wagler was honored Tuesday as the league’s Freshman of the Year. The lightly recruited four-star guard has had a dominant campaign for No. 9 Illinois, highlighted by his 46-point outburst in an upset win over Purdue in […]
