Perry Ellis seems like a forgotten man. Very good player. Maybe the most talented KU team since the one that got upset by Arizona. Youth is a bit of a concern although last years Michigan team was young.

You feeling okay lately?

Ellis was in my doghouse for most of the season, because up til the B12 tourney, he played like a child going up against a bunch of men.

He's going to have to show a lot more now being the primary offensive guy inside than just the sample size we all saw the last couple/few weeks of the season.

He is experiencing what happened to Demonpenz... he is becoming a KU Hoops fan. :clap: I've seen about 5-6 of them occur in the last 3-4 years now.

3- Five Star recruits
3- Four Star recruits

Holy shit.

He flip flops on how he talks based on the audience he thinks is listening.

hard to blame

buhhhh

Andrew Wiggins perfectly exemplifies the difference between KU and the Chiefs.

We get the #1 overall pick in an historically bad year for QBs, one year AFTER the best QB class in 30 years.

KU, meanwhile, loses five starters and completely reloads in one of the deepest recruiting classes ever, snagging three top players including the best prospect in a decade.

I've said it before on this board, and I'll say it again. I don't know how missouri fans survive.

Next year’s top player responds: Jahlil Okafor, a 6-10, 280-pound center from Chicago Whitney Young and the No. 1 player in the Class of 2014, wrote about Wiggins in his blog in USA Today.


“Of course I heard the news about Andrew Wiggins signing with Kansas and I really liked that move for him. He wouldn’t be there if I was to go there but that still makes them really attractive,” Okafor wrote.

“A lot of people say that Kansas doesn’t want a freshman to just come in for a year and have a huge impact then leave. I’ve never believed that, but I know Andrew will prove that it’s not true so that’s why it’s big. I’ll definitely be watching close to see how they handle a player of his talent level. I know coach Self will do a good job with it. I thought Andrew handled his whole recruitment really well. He took his time and made the right decision for him. I do think I’ll end up committing much sooner than he did though.”

And Calipari paints a HUGE target on their back.....

Kentucky response: Kentucky coach John Calipari at a news conference Wednesday discussed losing Wiggins to KU.

“I’m as confident before and after his decision,” Calipari told the Sporting News’ Mike DeCourcy. “I wish him well. He’s a great kid and is going to be a terrific basketball player. I was confident in this team and what we have before and after.”

Calipari said his young Wildcat team will try to go undefeated.

“We’re chasing perfection. We’re chasing greatness. We’re chasing things that have never been done before in the history of this game,” Calipari said. “It’s never been done … in the modern era.”

No team has gone undefeated since the NCAA Tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985.

“It wakes you up a little earlier in the morning,” Calipari said in the Sporting News. “I don’t mind a little pressure. You know what? I’m at my best when the gun is to my head. Players are the same. I’m not saying if we lose a game, it is not a successful season. No. But you’re chasing greatness. What’s wrong with that?”

A sign of negative recruiting by other coaches.
