He clearly did fine with oubre. You might not like him, but everyone else does. Excellent defender, great length, can shoot, he is gonna be good. He had a good year, and is going in the lottery. Mission accomplished for him.

Xavier was the second leading scorer and fit in perfectly with an absolutely unbelievable team in 2010. He left Kansas as the best freshman scorer in the schools history. Then he got drafted 12th overall. What a train wreck.

Selby flat out sucks. I really have nothing to say there. And Alexander certainly needs a few years, but it looks like he might not be able to get them. That's 4/6 and the 2 guys who self "did badly with" faced eligibility and off court issues. Not a coincidence.

I don't care for Oubre, but he's a project that could be a contributor down the road.

Billy has gotten away from what made him the coach he is. That's the dilemma major college coaches face though. Do you pass on a blue chipper and try to find a 3 star who will stay for 3 years or roll the dice with a 1 year guy. Regardless, the way he is doing it hasn't been working in Lawrence. Getting manhandled by a experience filled WSU team was just the proof in the pudding.

Also hearing from people I know that Ron Baker is leaving. That was pre Marshall staying, but he is a moron if he goes. Wichita State will have a legit squad if he stays and the addition of Frankcamp will be huge for backcourt depth.

Despite the changes in modern college basketball, you still Need experience (especially at the guard position) to win in the NCAA Tournament. The only outliers I can think of are 2012 Kentucky and 2003 Syracuse
