Bishop Meige has some very nice players.  they have won more state titles than any school in Kansas history.  it is a catholic school in Kansas city.  They have a nice soph pg, but I can't remember her name.  They didn't have anybody at kaylee and lanie's level, but they just have more good kids. Wamego's 4-8 kids weren't as strong as the ones they had last year when they won the state title.  2 great kids no matter how good can't beat 5 solid players without some help

 

The best team in Kansas all classes in my opinion would be 1) Leavenworth 5a; 2) Wichita south 6a, 3) Salina Central 5a; 4) maize 6a; 5) olathe south 6a 6)  bishop meige 4a; 7).acquinas 5a  8) kapun 5a 9) Wamego 4a 10) Manhattan 6a.

 

Bishop miege beat Jess Shepards team over xmas break in kc in a holiday tourney. 

 

Leavenworth is off the charts good.  They may bounce into the USA today top 20 next year.  They have 4 BCS kids (3 jrs) and a freshman.  They go 6'3; 6'2" 6'1" accross the front line.  NU has offered 2 of them and they could easily end up there.  Rachel Blackburn and Tyler Johnson.  Blackburn is in prospect nations top 60; and Johnson and Blackburn both grade out as 3 star 90 score kids on hoopgurlz.  Blackburn is bigger, but Johnson is more dominant currently.

The girl holding up the blonde is Jacee Kramer she's attending Emporia St next year. The blonde is Shaelyn Martin, she's going to K-State as is Kylee Kopatich number 33 in blue. We all know where Kaylee is going and hopefully her sister follows her.

it's probably been discussed before---so i may have missed it, but, i am just curious if lanie has given any approximate time that she would be making her college decision? i'm just guessing she might want to get it over with before her senior season so she is focused primarily on that.

I have never heard a time limit. I assume ksu has to at least be back in a discussion since they changed coaches and it is 20 miles from her house.

 

Report has it that all returning K State players have said they will be back next year. And from what I understand is that Mittie only has one scholarship to give. That is if all the incoming recruits will stay aboard. I say Lanie will decide between us and Texas Tech.

That is a fun question Doc.   I am pretty sure year in year out Kansas has more high level kids than Nebraska.  I will take the ks all state list and cut and paste offers or commitments for the ks kids. Somebody should do the same for Nu and we can compare.

 

That said, I have seen most of the ks kids, and not all of the Nebraska kids, but Jess is a difference maker so I say Neb. would win this year.  Also, ks is bad about always taking one small town kid with big numbers and putting them on the super state team to keep the small schools happy. I would strongly argue KS "top 5" by awards isn't the top 5 by talent or current ability.

Thanks kansashusker! I don't think I've ever seen a picture of Kaylee where she hasn't had a huge smile on her face. I think that goes to show just what kind of girl she is and how positive of a person she presents herself to be. Yet another great addition to the Husker family!

From reading this article is seems as if Kaylees work ethic is off the charts.  Almost like Kelsey Griffin and nobody works harder than Kelsey. Really excited to see her this fall.

Pretty excited to see her.  Any word on her sister and her plans yet?

I was talking to a co=worker this morning after reading this and he asked me "when was the last time the Journal Star ran an article about an incoming wbb freshmen at this time of the year." The only one I can remember is the one Kurt McKeever wrote about Lindsey Moore back in May of 2009. I wouldn't mind seeing them try and get ahold of Natalie Romeo and Chandler Smith or even Jasmine Cincore and see how excited they are to start their new careers of basketball.

 

The JHoop era is now history and the KP2 era is just about to get underway. She looks to be a leader right from the get go. We get four years to watch this top ten recruiting class do their thing. It may be a little rocky at the start but once it gets going...........lookout it's going to be hard to stop!
