@JayHawkFanToo Appreciate your thoughtful sharing of knowledge and research. I grow edgy when former Jayhawk stars drift into ugliness and mayhem. I really do hope that TRob keeps his nose clean and finds the right niche with a team which thrives on his good motor. Sad thing, X’s multiple injuries. I remember fondly his near tearful premature departure from Lawrence, worrited and chivied by family and big bucks to zoom off and away to professional contracts. Man O Man, did Roy Wms. ever do a fine job toward the end of his KU tenure, bringing in Hinrich, Collison, Miles, Langford and Simien. Of course, he also left Bill Self strapped with the peregrinations of Giddens. Or rather, GIDDINGS. Which commentator referred to J.R. as Giddings? Knight? I wish for Withey the very best. He, too, deserves just the right niche in order to hang on for several more seasons in the League. And yeah, the twins will probably buy their way out of their current legal troubles. I imagine that Angel will take each by an ear and negotiate a settlement. I never was very comfortable with that FOE braying. And Taylor…well, he never ever was a guy I would trust alone with my granddaughters, or that I could envision loaning $20 to; but his senior year in Lawrence finally became a joy to watch, esp. his last semester when he pressed the pedal to the metal, striving to win an NBA contract in spite of his checkered and mercurial past. If he had possessed, all along, the intensity and determination of Collins or Reed or TRob, O MY!
I hope to see Pierce finish his career in a veritable Playoffs Blaze of Glory. Good fit, probably, him and Doc.
