Incredibly, his game has become even more one dimensional that it was last year.

His lack of a consistent jump shot has him passing up open J's and forcing the ball to the floor w/ dribble penetrations.
Pretty mobile for a big guard at this level but unless he can force defenders to respect his jumper he's an over-hyped decoy.

Give him 3 feet and let him haul up that crooked jumper.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Probably a better jump shot than Neil Peart's though.

The guy is an all-american and can't hit from 14 feet.

Peart is more of a low post guy.

Rush is the first freshman in Big 12 history to make 1st-team All Big 12.

Best of the three brothers, without a doubt.

Rush's jersey would already be retired if he played at K-Scrub.

He's also the oldest freshman in the conference since WWII.  I'll get you a link as soon as I find it.

I don't think he'll be first team AA.

He won't deserve it, at least.

Chum... ever heard of Curtis Stinson from Iowa State?

He was a 25-year old freshman.

41% from the field.  65% percent from the line.  More TOs than assists. 

The only thing funnier than him being Big 12 preseason POY, is Wright being the preseason co-POY for the B12.

Take that 41% with a grain of salt, the majority of his makes that upped that percentage were when he was putting the ball on the floor and bringing it to the hoop.  Did he make a jump shot the entire evening?

I'm not saying the guy sucks, just that he has no jumper and is one dimensional.

You have to admire a guy who looks back on High School as the best 5 or 6 years of his life.

ku could've had another Rush, but since 47 NCAA coaches were prepared to ring the phone off the hook at NCAA Hdqtrs if he signed with KthUg, Roi called a self serving press conference to announce that KthUg was no longer recruiting him . . . that might be an NCAA first, even for the most probation laden basketball program in NCAA history.

Wright an interesting case.  The guy does 3 or 4 things a night to win games.  But he also does 3 or 4 things to lose a game.

But he can rebound.

but rush is a deadbeat dad
We all know there's been a conspiracy. Only the failures have been recorded.
We all pay too much attention to Icarus, and not enough to his father.

The only reason rush gets any publicity is because all the players at Kansas are alike. They all do one thing decent and the rest pretty average. But with the average players the question arises, "Who's our superstar." And since Rush has basketball ties in his families, and is a decent player, he is considered the star. Rush is as good as Cartier Martin, but Kansas has more decent players than Kansas State does, allowing Rush to look like the superstar. Instead of the way he plays, which is like an athletic white guy, with an average jumper.

Rush is a few bad games and a Moon Bar incident from, conveniently, being a terrible person, a cancer on the team, and a terrible player.

He's already matched CJ Giles in the deadbeat dad area....
