I still don't believe for a second that Wiggins is going anywhere other than Kuntucky, but maybe I'm just jaded after years of abuse.

It's odd though too. Cal is a great recruiter obviously, but average head coach, and that couldn't be more obvious than this year. If I were a highly touted player I'd want to be coached up not just told you'll showcase me properly so I can be one and done. Must be the $$$ and other benefits he offers. I'll never forget Bobby Knight going off on a rant on Cal calling him "a disgrace to basketball and sports in general" then ESPN making him apologize a day later. Truth is awesome.

If the reports are true about his play, he's much better than anything we've seen in the NCAA since Durant. It won't much matter where he goes at all.

I'd be happy with just getting Randle (that should make KU a NC contender again), but I'm not going to lose any sleep over recruiting stuff.

Had a little fun watching the old Batman series from the 60's with my son. Then as we went through the credits, I noticed the end... and now I know why Kansas basketball rocks! BATMAN!

I was talking football.

You have a last place recruiting class while Weis hasn't won a conference game yet has netted the #1 junior in KS and a top rated juco class.

I can see why Jack wants you guys to come back.

Then again you never won anything here so I'm not sure what coming back will accomplish.

Good luck though!

@RockChalkBlog: With a possible 10 games left in the #kubball season, Elijah Johnson is 7 wins away from tying Shane Battier as winningest NCAA player.

Damn, that's pretty impressive.

A testament to just how dominant Self's teams have been for quite some time.

His website is billisking.com. Every Tuesday, Drew Maddux comes onto his radio show and talks about college hoops. He is a college basketball analyst. He is head coach of CPA in Nashville and he is an Nike Elite Skills instructor. He was a former player at Vandy.

On Tuesday's radio show hosted by Bill King..33rd-36th minute, NC state fan indeed asks about NC State and where Julius Randle stands. So Maddux and King acknowledge that Randle is announcing March 20th. Maddux says he talked to other coaches and said he also knows Randle's high school coach. He said he is not going to quote anyone and states "Randle is Kansas' to lose."

Maddux states Wiggins and Randle could both play for Self and that'd be a powerful 1-2 punch. They then talk about Wiggins and believe that Wiggins isn't trending with UK. Maddux feels that it's between Florida St., UNC, and KU but ultimately it'll come down to KU and UNC bc of Wiggins maintaining his brand of possibly becoming a future number one pick.

If you want to listen to the radio show from Tuesday, go to www.billisking.com and create a free login. Then click on radio archives and you can see the mp3 file from Tuesday with Drew Maddux. You can fast forward to minutes 32-36. That's the important parts!

take it fwiw..not sure what that is....

This very well may happen.

Not only that but I have a feeling that we're about to enter into Bill Self's prime as head coach as far as talent goes. With McLemore he's got that #1 pick he's been without through his tenure at KU. It's time to buckle up because it's about to get even bigger than everyone knows it already is.

@ESPNLunardi: Another new top line: Gonzaga/WEST, Kansas/SOUTH, Indiana/MW, Duke/EAST.

Stay that way now please.

I sent this to Wiggin's twitter :)...

Honestly, he looks like LeBron looked in high school, with a more mechanically sound shot. There's a good video of him rejecting a jumper from Randle and taking it to the other end for a big throw down.

Andrew Wiggins is to NBA what Andrew Luck was to the NFL.

Joel Embiid is going to be a top 3 pick when all is said and done, though.

Adding Randle to this class...speechless.

Next year Self''s team may look like a Cal team.
