Like I said earlier...
The Kevin Durant route.
KD could have went to North Carolina with Lawson, Ellington, etc Psycho T. But decided to do his own thing at Kentucky.
Scored 25 a game and got knocked out of the sweet 16 (I think?)
Obviously KU has a much better coach. But I dont see the team going anywhere and I dont think Self's system will allow for Wiggins to be that 22 -25 point scorer in KU's system.

Kansas won a national championship in 2008 and played in the national championship just two years ago. Kansas was in the sweet 16 last year, where the hell was Kentucky? You also make it seem like this is a 1 man recruiting class. Kansas has signed 5 top 50 players this year. They already had # 2 class before Wiggins committed.

Andrew Wiggins, best HS player since LeBron, didn't go LeBron and join best players at Kentucky. Wants to be his own man at Kansas.
Just had to post this. I

Did LeBron frick his wife or run over his dog? Why does this bleeding a-hole have to take a cheap shot at the guy every chance he gets?

They pay very good at KU, and Coach Cal, doesn't have the purse strings to buy this one, this year. He'll be fully loaded for next years #1 overall.
Sometimes the warchest runs low, and the boosters have to refill.

It makes no sense either. Kansas had the 2nd best class already

I don't know of any top coaches who haven't been a little shady in landing top players

Do we need to talk about Billy Donovan's relationship with Bret Bearup who bankrolled Bonner and Co's trip to France?
Is it legal? Absolutely. But still falls under that shady bit I was talking about. They ALL do it. Even your Billy Donovan.

Billy D, he does a great job of getting in on kids early and the kids and parents don't forget. He took 2 studs from St.Louis, and was in on them, a year to 2 years before Snyder and Suitcase Anderson made contact(lee and beal).
And the coaches and parents told me it made a huge difference, compared to the carpet baggers who come in at the last hour to promise and offer goodies.

Someone should do something about this
