I tweet things about KU and stuff. Bill Self is my dad. KU/Broncos/Royals/Nuggets

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

The last loyal Jayhawks ❤️‍🩹

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@maga4less We’d get their second leading scorer (who was 4th in minutes per game) to be our 6th man

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

I mean if we can get this guy as our 6th man I would be STOKED.

Would add a proven elite shooter to come in and provide a spark.

Kansas State transfer Abdi Bashir has a Zoom meeting scheduled with Kansas today, source told @LeagueRDY.

The 6-foot-7 guard recently took a visit to St. John’s. He averaged 13.2PPG, 2.3APG and 2.2RPG this season. Shot 44.4% from 3.

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@BuddyRichsBlunt @ku_grant Well he’d at least have a coach

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@MotleyRockChalk @Dmagic27 @MrBradleyTodd Yeah not elite by any means, but I expect Kohl to jump up to a 35% shooter this year.

You also left off 40.7% Blyden (expect to drop to ~38%).

Then I’m expecting another sharp shooter at 6 from portal.

If we get a 38%+ shooter from the 6, we’d be near elite shooting

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

The only player I don’t feel strongly about is Reeves.

But the past 3 years we’ve had:
-Dickinson
-Dickinson + Bidunga
-Bidunga

Knowing the outcomes of those seasons, is buying the top Center is worth it?

Reeves has A LOT of potential and allowed us to build around Stokes

[The Field of 68 @TheFieldOf68]

Bill Self just landed Tyran Stokes 👀

What are your thoughts on the Jayhawks’ roster? 🤔⬇️

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

The size of that fish is very representative of what Mark Pope can catch in the portal.

He can only catch the small fish.

[Jack Pilgrim @JackPilgrimKSR]

NEW -- Kentucky's Mark Pope and Mikhail McLean went fishing with '27 No. 1 recruit CJ Rosser on Tuesday

"It means a lot that they continue to show up for me and try to get to know me off the court too," he told KSR.

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@PhoggyThoughts Yeah you might be right. Didn’t realize his value dropped so much just by playing on KState for one year

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@jestrella05 It was primarily a joke.

But shows despite us not having top 10 NIL budget, we still have hefty pull on players because of our history

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

Who has it better in the offseason than the Kansas Jayhawks?

2023: #1 Overall Seed Entering Season
2024: #1 Overall Seed Entering Season
2025: Darryn Peterson
2026: Tyran Stokes

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@CHunt1220 Exactly my thoughts. Michigan hit 2 threes in the National Championship.

Ranked 81st in the country in 3 pointers made per game

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

Bill Self went into this offseason telling himself he wasn’t leaving it without one thing:

Rebounding.

This can be summed up by the three guys we got down low:
-Stokes
-Dawes
-Reeves (7’2”)

And the two guys we let walk:
-Bryson Tiller
-Flory Bidunga

[Walter Weiss @RealBabeRuth714]

@BillSelfMeDad More proven than Stokes.

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@JohnRanson12 Right there with you

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

Who has it better in the offseason than the Kansas Jayhawks?

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

NEVER DOUBT BILL

1. TK

5. Reeves

+Portal Bench Players
Rosario
Paul

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@The_Phogg 100%.

I’ve learned to trust Bill when it comes to bigs

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@MotleyRockChalk I haven’t heard much from international players. That’s where we’d have to go.

Heard we ain’t going big at Center on anyone else in portal

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

To the burners who are forever negative and saying our team still sucks… we’re back to top 10

[Michael Swain @MSwain247]

The addition of Tyran Stokes takes Kansas from 29th to 10th in Torvik's preseason roster projections.

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

Bill Self says

[Bill Self @CoachBillSelf]

Boom

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@flsku Just believe, why don’t ya Frank?

[BillSelfMeDad @BillSelfMeDad]

@not_jimmydubs Increased size, physicality, and rebounding.

Dawes > Tiller
