      Give him the 2 year deal. Sophomore year he could be a monster.

      I fear that he will transfer after year one in the current climate but would love to be wrong because the talent is absolutely there.

      Exactly why I’d push for the two year deal like Louisville did with that center.

      It's a good thought but I don't think any of these contracts are remotely enforceable. If it ends up going south and he wants to leave, then he will leave I feel. I would like to see some more retention and I think it can be possible to an extent. Other programs are doing it. I think part of the issue for KU is that it's clear Self is nearing the end/openly considered retiring etc...

        @tyohawk I will say I agree with what you said elsewhere. I am not really a Kohl believer at all so more bodies for this spot is good and I could see him being ahead of Kohl.

          It doesn’t mean he’s in the circle of trust but I vividly remember Bossi saying he’s more talented than Kohl.

            Melvin might be coming back. Not a fan of it but I know he has a lot of fans so yeah.

                  hate watching Melvin shoot but his leadership would be pretty great on a totally new team whose best player is by all accounts very immature

                    He was denied a waiver on his 2 year JUCO stint and only gave him the one year with us so the courts are what's left. Takes money and time for that to happen. Vernon is a hype influencer. I take what he says with a side eye.

                      Double ha! Vernon as a source doesn’t inspire credibility. I’ll believe it when I see it. That being said, I hope it’s not true. Best of luck to Melvin, but Onward and upward.

                        Btw for anybody in the know…
                        It seems we have 14 players on the roster…why do some think we still have two or three roster spots to fill? Thought 15 was the limit.

                          I mean this would be a home run if Melvin could return.

                          Still a lot of uncertainty with the roster is insane

                              Musikic if eligible at C. They will pursue other options it sounds while they wait..

                              Bardwell wants to reclass and the next few days could bring the process forward. We shall see..

                              Council wants to return to KU but needs eligibility.

                                  I’m personally tired of lead guards who can’t shoot. I don’t know where Coach developed this fetish but I’m tired of it.

                                    @BeddieKU23 Can you explain how KU still has 2 roster spots available despite currently having 14 players with the limit of 15 players?
