  @JayHawkFanToo Yeah! I think had he stayed and had the opportunity, him and A.D. could have made one hell of a shot blocking rim protecting front court. The two best shot blockers in Div 1 the year of '12

  @jaybate-1.0 I dont pay close attention to recruiting. I dont much care about recruits 2 years out from graduating highschool. Its only when they become Seniors that I even get a bit interested. But, your hypothesis does bear some weight for support in my opinion. Data can be reflected anyway the computer sees fit. High school players, recruits can be categorized and referenced just the same. I bet that if you put even more thought into it, that a third category could be made.

  @drgnslayr I thought that using the term “cracker” is now judged to be offensive…

  @jaybate-1.0 Im on board with that idea. Pretty sure Mike is from Portland? Either way, it gives us a possible avenue for bringing west coast talent to Larrytown. Again, I also wonder if Mike would be given a call by Ole Roy and have to pick between directing one of his kids to UNC or to KU. I think it would be hard to pick one over the other. I mean Roy was his coach too and it seems he might be loyal to Roy and Bill. Nike and Adidas.

  Why does Nebraska need $3M per year for shoes? At $100/pair that's 30k pairs per year?

  It is really not rocket science…here is the relevant part of the contract that indicated the $1,500,000 for “Adidas products for use by the designated Athletic Program…” at Wholesale Value. There is nowhere in the contract where it indicates that it is for shoes only. I would guess that a complete football uniform is more expense than the cleats.

  @BeddieKU23 Bolden looks to have a heck of a lot of potential. Kind of reminds me of a smaller Okafor. I know he has big hands and can hold a ball well. It looks like he is still growing, too. Might be a footer by the time he wears a Jayhawk uniform. Hopefully, he would be surrounded by a big class of elites, helping convince him to stay in school because of his draft assessment being lower because of a competitive class. I don’t want to jinx anything so I won’t make a prediction.

  I’d be shocked if Ballock ends up anywhere else. He’s coming in when Mason leaves and should slide nicely into the rotation right away as Graham gets the full time PG gig that year.

  @Lulufulu Eubanks was not deemed ineligible by the NCAA, he simply has not been cleared yet. @BeddieKU23 Being found eligible by the NCAA and being admitted by a school are not related, If eligibility by the NCAA would be a requirement then every student would have to be cleared by the NCAA, obviously this is not the case. Eubanks clearly did not have the grades to be accepted to Alabama regardless of NCAA clearing him or not, period; school do have some minimum requirements for admission. If the Alabama would not take him, chances are the NCAA will not clear him either…so JuCo…or China… here we go…

  @JayHawkFanToo 50! Yup, that needs to happen. And Coach Self needs to look over at Slimy Cal and say " Whatre you doing?" or some such thing.

  We have had brutal schedules before and they didn’t help us one bit in the tournament. What we need is a healthy team with all its parts (Diallo) & a team that has chemistry and an identity to make it past the first weekend. The biggest key to this schedule will be the road games. A lot of games for the team to draw back from last year as we can do better than this. The meltdown’s in Manhattan & Stillwater, poor 1st half in Ames, whatever it was we were a poor road team. Maybe the biggest improvement as a team in conference play will be to have that killer mentality on the road that we didn’t have last year.

  Talking about BIG AGENT appears the REAL taboo–not BIG SHOE.
