Great. Then between him and Kaun, the ball would NEVER come out of the paint.

I know Julian Wright has said in the past he's staying ... but if he doesn't develop a jump shot between now and then, I think he'll regret that decision.

He's a definite top 10, possible top 5 pick right now, based on his potential. Another year with no improvement to his jumper is only going to lower his perceived potential.

I also question whether he's quick enough to defend the 3 in the NBA.

He's a very good college player, but I don't know if his game translates. Best to leave now before too many holes can get poked in your game, lest you become the next Rickey Paulding/Ryan Minor.

he's smart ... maybe he'll graduate then transfer without having to sit out a year. He should go to a team that can actually develop a big man.

not to mention a coach who knows how to get a big man involved in the offense.

I have to disagree here slightly. While I don't know that Self has ever proven he can handle a big man in his "offense", I don't think Sasha is capable of being the man, anyway.

He knows nothing of finesse. I'd be all for your position if he didn't take a lay up and throw it hard off the backboard. Sometimes he shows glimpses of why he's in there. However, there's more of the "can't finish", "no finesse" Sasha than the "I'm a force down low for the Hawks".

Maybe it's me.

Laz,

The NCAA already has abolished the rule that allowed players to transfer for their fourth year of eligibility if they'd completed their degree.

kU is stuck with Kaun unless he's willing to transfer and sit out a year.

Kaun sucks.
