He is only going to get minimal practice time during the conference season, KU's coaches focus will be on the conference games, not so much teaching. He is going to have to get the extra time one on one with coaches after practice, even then they have to minimize it because of classes and studies.
Right now the only thing he knows, what a basketball is. The college game is going to be an adjustment of speed and learning the system. Other freshmen have had the whole summer, you have to have talent to crack the roster and get playing time as a freshman in Self's system. Several have, but the off season was the time to learn. Getting playing time during the conference will be difficult, Bill has never compromised playing time over taking care of business of winning the conference title.
