Conner Frankamp is a Shocker

[_kai_]

There were rumblings mention on the board, that WSU was still looking at singing more player(s) for next years class.

Perhaps it's not wise to connect-the-dots yet, but it certainly wouldn't shock me to see him "come home".

Maybe he got some inspiration from LeBron.

Only if he goes to Newman or Friends. Would be really surprised to see him come here. He doesn't fit the mold of a Marshall player. He likes long, lean, athletic players who buy into a system and have no ego. I don't see a single bullet point there that Frankamp meets.

I have to agree. When people say Wichita State has had interest, I have to assume Frankamp got a call from Marshall saying "Hey, we always have a walk-on spot."

I'd let him walk on. Otherwise he can chuck 3 pointers all day long at Creighton.

He's an idiot (or his dad is) if he honestly thinks he's going to get PT over Shamet, Henderson, and Taylor over the next 2-3 years.

The top thread on our Shocker men's basketball forum is about a player transferring from KU to some undetermined program...

What do you propose we talk about besides the transfer of a Wichita kid from an in-state school? It will be nice once the season starts. Until then, things like this deserve to be talked about.

To be fair, it is Connor Frankamp. If he wasn't a well known former city league player, it wouldn't be a topic at all. It's interesting enough to talk about. A good player is a good player. If he winds up at WSU, I would be happy enough, but I wouldn't expect him to be a star by any means.

We are rumored as one of the three or four most likely destinations, and there is supposedly reciprocal interest. Very few here know the true situation, and I certainly don't have any inside knowledge of where he'll end up.

However, maybe hold off on unloading both cannons on the kid until we find out where he's going. If HCGM wants him, I trust his judgment and would love for him to be here. If HCGM is uninterested, then fling away I guess.

Guys, maybe it's not wise to talk smack on him, considering there is a chance (even if it is VERY slight) he could wind up @ WSU.

Talk about an awkward "Welcome aboard"... Haha

Looks like I wasn't the only one thinking the same thing!

In the end, the Internet forum is all in good-spirited fun/banter!

Creighton.

I'm not saying that I want the kid here (like others on the thread, if Marshall wants him, I want him) but if he goes straight to Creighton from KU, well, he must really hate Wichita State.

More surprising to me than Frankamp coming to WSU would be HCGM offering him a schollie anytime before he is eligible to play, if not until his junior year.

Bingo

KU waves the wheat... We shock it...

I like that.

Or, there is no scholarship room at Wichita State.

[wu_shizzle]

I think a poll is in order.

[newshock1234]

Ive actually heard that him coming here is real. Not sure if I should believe or not, but we will see.

I think that is exactly what Coach would offer him. Walk-on, earn a spot, add the scholarship when he becomes eligible if he earns it.
