For the 2015 PGs, check out Jalen Adams, King McClure and Justin Simon. All serious KU guys.

Without one and dones we may have struggled to even make the tourney this year. Had a KSU type season were we win at home and lose everywhere else. Having a roster totally turn over made the gamble no-lose really.
We sucked last month mostly because our few holdovers didn't really progress into good players. |

Wiggins is the most talented Kansas player in your lifetime, he's a good kid, and it's usually a solid idea to have the basketball team with the best player on the floor. If he was born a year earlier you're probably touting him as one of the greatest players in the history of the program.

I don't agree with PB on everything he's said, obviously, but I will agree on one thing. Big 12 tournament champions should always be treated as a stepping stone to far higher goals throughout the season, and shouldn't be something that is heavily bragged about. Kind of similar to winning your division in other professional sports.
It's all about what you do with the opportunity once you hit the post season. |

College players don't owe fans jack squat, they tried their best and without Embiid this teams best wasn't good enough to really contend in March. But I do think the guy earning $5m per year does owe the fans some answers for what I consider his worst coaching job since he got here. Don't care we lost 10 for the first time under him, brutal schedule/new team. But in the end we didn't really accomplish anything this season.
Andrew got us a league title and now he's gone. Embiid, barely knew ya. If Selden actually declares then he was a total waste of a scholly. We didn't develop anyone this year really with a future here, seems like we are back to square one next year. |

Vitale was just talking about freshmen that would benefit from an extra year, first two he mentioned were Wiggins and Embiid, hopefully they heard it.

i hold out hope for Embiid but Wiggins is long gone. Oubre is coming in next year to take his spot and it would jack shit up if he came back (which he wouldnt)

Do you really think Andrew White III and Brennan Greene and Landen Lucas are going to win much more than 6-8 conference games? Christ almighty dude. The schedule would have looked something like this without those guys. Duke L Iona W Towson W Wake Forest L Nova L UTEP L @Colorado L @Florida L(OL) New Mexico L Georgetown L Toledo W SDSU L @OU L KSU W? @ISU L OSU L Baylor L @TCU W ISU L @UT L @Baylor L WVU W? @KSU L TCU W @TT L UT L OU L @OSU L TT W @WV L 1st round of Big 12 L That is 8-27. Bitch about these dudes all you want but if this team goes 8 and mother****ing 27 you are picketing KUs campus calling for Bill Self's head. This team lost ALL of it's starters, and won the toughest conference in the nation. Why? Because Embiid is a man among boys, Wiggins is ****ing good, and Seldon hit a shitton of shots and played defense like no one on the team not named Wiggins can do. So they didn't win it all like Melo did at Syracuse or Cal's did at UK. They still gave us a watchable season. They didn't ruin your life, they made it better. Shut the **** up about it. |

He gone. I'm counting on Embiid being gone, but he has a far higher chance of staying. |

Sorry Buehler that you don't read what I wrote. Already said Andrew won us the league. Please read better. As for Embiid & Selden though, they are wasted schollies if they go NBA. Embiid was the difference between what, a 2-seed we got and getting a 7 seed? So what, we still lose 2nd round anyway. What difference does it make? (Selden didn't make any impact at all really this season, we could've played White or Greene or Frankamp and had the same record)
Going into next year we should've developed some guys more. Just my .02 Maybe you liked seeing Conner ride the bench the entire year. |

Yeah I'm pretty sure Wiggins is long gone as well. I'd rather see Embiid stay another year anyways.
