Can anyone think of another example where Self has benched one of "his" guys for an incoming freshman, especially a 2 year starting senior?
I just don't see him sitting KJ. He trusts him and KJ plays his ass off. Self loves those guys. Morningstar, Releford, RussRob, for example. I get the sentiment of bringing him off the bench, I just can't think of when Self has ever done something like that. As good as Bidunga may be, its hard for a freshman to crack the starting lineup for Self. |

Lagerald Vick was also benched his senior year, but he was replaced by Charlie Moore and it wasn't because the other guy was better, or a to have Vick come off the bench as an energy guy. |

Black transferred in from Memphis though, so I don’t consider him one is Self’s guys. Pretty sure Vick left the team that year for reasons unknown. |

I found the article from his benching. Self's reasoning was that Vick had a "rough practice" and that he "hoped it was behind him now." I can't remember what all of the rumors were at the time. |

Didn't Mitch Lightfoot start a year and then didn't later on?

We are spoiled with the Chiefs and Jayhawks... plus KC Royals went to 2 World Series in the past decade... so, now we know what it feels like to be Boston in the 2000s.
Let's reload Jayhawks! |

KU should be all over Colby Rogers.
Seems like an ideal fit. Rogers, Furphy, and McNeeley could give us 3 elite level shooters. |

Got Kugel.
He’ll be a nice rotational guard. Will be great to have depth again. |

He is a extremely inefficient scorer. He shoots less than 40% from the field even though only 3 of his FG's per game are threes. He doesn't appear to be a playmaker only averages 1.5 apg vs 1.9 to. 31% 3FG shooter and doesn't get to the line alot in only 2 FTA a game. I don't get what we see in this guy unless he's some elite defender. |
