That kid was a 4-year player for them that improved every year. By this season he was a dead-eye 3-point shooter and defensive stalwart. He bled for that team and he'll call himself a jayhawk until the day he dies.
Josh Jackson? Wiggins? Embiid, McLemore, Oubre, etc....those guys can say all the right things but they'll never have the attachment to Kansas that Mason will have. Or guys from my younger years like Jacque Vaugh, etc...
That's who I hope we can start bringing again - guys that belong at this level, want to be here, want to improve and care about the University as more than just a stepping stone to the NBA. Those were the guys we were able to win with in the past.

It's hard not to like Frank Mason, regardless of who he plays for.
