Video: 5-star recruit commits to Kansas at press conf, accidentally says Kent...

Kansas recruits must just be boneheads. First Cliff Alexander. Now this guy. Although credit to this guy for not being an intentional bonehead.

The check from World Wide Wes probably hadn't cleared yet. Can you blame him?

Carlton Bragg certainly might be among the best, but not the brightest.

Both K states. Easy to confuse the two, so cut the kid a little slack.

Kentucky does border his home Ohio. Follow the money. How does Kansas get all these guys? It's not paradise. I know they have tradition and they win games and Self is respected but still.

Kansas has 64 guys in the NBA. UofM has 42. BUT almost half of ours are before 1975. Only two essentially are since 2000. Kris Humphries and Joel Przybilla. Kansas has 26 guys since 2000 in the NBA...bunch more in the 90's. We gotta get better.

It's definitely no paradise, but that program has a TON of support by what feels like every single resident of Lawrence. KU gear everywhere, you can't get away from it. That and the tradition and history, and I can see the draw.
