Makes you wonder why we play Duke, Mich State, Kentucky, Ohio State, on and on. I guess we don't fear them as we do Wich State.

THEY DON'T GO TO THE FINAL FOUR BITCHES!!!!

\sarcasm

I know it's sarcasm, but all 4 of them have been to the FF in the past few years.

That's why it is (supposed to be) funny.

As a freshman at Kansas, he will make an immediate splash with his inside scoring, short jumper and shot-blocking abilities. By the time he’s a sophomore for the Jayhawks, expect him to dominate the paint. He’s not a household name yet but he could be after his time at Kansas. When it’s all said and done, Embiid might end up being the best big man Bill Self has ever coached...

Biggest sleeper: Joel Embiid
Embiid is the best player in the game whom most people don’t know much about, but that could very well change after the JBC. At 7-foot, he makes short jumpers and jump hooks and also block shots well. It’s an understatement to say he’s rapidly improving.

He can also shoot the 3 real well for a 7 footer.

Adam Finkelstein ‏@FinkelsteinNERR

Joel Embiid has a lot to learn but his talent level is off the charts. One of best NBA prospects here IMO.



Nice compliment from ESPN's Finkelstein for Embiid.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

@DaveTelep: Reports out of Jordan Game on Joel Embiid are glowing. Did so well he was added to International Hoop Summit team. (ESPN's No. 2 center)

[Fansy the Famous Bard]

Angel Goodrich gets drafted in the third round of the WNBA draft by Tulsa. Congrats to her!

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Bill Self will meet with Wiggins next Tuesday, Roy Williams will meet with Wiggins before that on Monday. UK met with him a couple weeks ago, FSU has yet to schedule visit. Schools making one final push to land him.

Our recruiting class is pretty ridiculous as is...

Add Wiggins and this becomes Bill's best incoming class, if it isn't already.

In 14-15 I expect to be favored to win it all. With Wiggins we just might win it this year.

Last season's class was nothing special...

Ben and Traylor were red shirts.

Perry was really the highlight of the recruiting class last season.

I just hope we have a good shooting team/class for once. At least timely and clutch hopefully.

I dunno man, Julian Wright was off the chain.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

There's rumblings going around that he's meeting with them to tell them that he's going to UK.
