    13 in a row

    Malik Hairston, transfer from Miss State, was a Top 10 recruit and will be a starter with Graham and Svi (if they stay). Sam Cunliff, transfer from ASU, Top 50 Recruit, will be eligible at semester. Marcus Garrett, Top 50 Recruit, big combo guard. Still on Duval, Top PG in class but looks...

    Perry Ellis??

    Amazing that KU managed to win the league by 2+games over teams like ISU and OU that had multiple draft picks. Great coaching job by Self to take a team with a bunch overrated/overhyped guys and who didn't have a single actual contributor get drafted to the title. Meanwhile, only one team in...

    New KU basketball dorms

    It holds a total of 38 residents, 16 of which are the basketball players (no team managers or trainers). The other 22 are regular students. They have to be male and have to have already completed 30 hours of coursework (or demonstrate membership in something that provides significant structure...

    Surly, Nice troll job by Weber on that walk-on kid. Offer him a preferred spot in the spring, let him quit playing at his JUCO with one year of eligibility left, wait until the gets on campus in late July, and then pull the the offer after a team pick-up game. Well done.

    Not Much Happiness in Manhappiness

    Reading comprehension: "A bunch of guys that you beat out mid-major's for and Wade...." And it's not demeaning to Wade to say that he could end up being a good player but that expecting him to lead your team as a freshman is a bit much. In fact I actually feel sorry for the kid. Posters on...

    Really? Johnson, in his best year, played 13 mins per game and averaged 2 pts/3 rebs. And is coming off a pretty serious injury. He's at best a Big 12 caliber backup. He's basically Edozie. Iwundu's game regressed last year. Edwards is who he is (not a difference maker). The recruiting...

    Ku's Cliff ...

    This is correct. NCAA didn't/hasn't suspended Cliff, but told KU on Saturday that it was investigating some issues. KU decided to hold Cliff out as a precaution. When Perry Jones of Baylor was suspended the NCAA notified them of possible issues in January, but they decided to keep playing...

    Ku's Cliff ...

    This. If what KU is saying now, that it is a Cliff issue (something like contact with an agent, accepting benefits from someone not associated with KU, etc) and not something that KU has done (ie illegal recruiting, benefits from someone associated with KU, etc) then I doubt that KU sees any...

    In reality, what is the ISU Basketball program?

    As a KU fan I can give you an outsiders perspective on your program, but only if you want me to. Don't want to mess up what looks to be a good thread (not that my perspective would be bad, what happening up there is impressive).

    Hoiberg NBA Rumor

    I think it's too early for him to think about leaving, I'd bet he wants to accomplish more at ISU before he makes a jump. Maybe a couple championships and a final four. But there is no way the financials work in ISUs favor. Cost of living in Chicago is not twice that of Ames. An extra 2-5...

    Consistent Conference Record Last 4 Yrs.

    In 11 years at KU he has 7 sweet 16s, 5 elite eights, 2 Final Fours, 1 National Champ. You can count on one hand the coaches who can match/surpass that record.
