I'd anticipate that he'll start the season. Hopefully Mason improves further and takes his spot, but when you have a senior PG with Tharpe's experience level, it's going to be hard not to utilize him significantly. That's unfortunate, because as I said yesterday KU is always going to be flawed as long if 2/5 of their starting lineup doesn't play defense (Tharpe/Perry). It's a tough thing for the others to overcome.

Not actually true, though.
