Rush is most likely returning next year.  So ku at the most may lose arthur.  How is KSU going to be better than ku next year?  We also add a mcd all american.

KCstar, ku Notebook:

RUSH RETURN IS LIKELY
Kansas sophmore guard Brandon Rush said he's leaning toward returning for his junior season instead of entering the NBA draft.  "I haven't decided yet," Rush said. "But I'm pretty sure I'll be back."

    You can't be racist and like basketball.
Are you saying all your players are huge disappointments?

Or are you saying that Bill Self has turned guaranteed lottery picks into second rounders?

Did Rush quit or get kicked off the team?  I've watched that last few ku games and haven't noticed him playing.

So, having him return is a GOOD thing?  He's really playing well on the road as of late.  So, I guess to answer your question...I'd rather have him return than have his schollie filled by the likes of Singler or other top recruit.  Seems top recruits play better than their elders, who were also top recruits. 

Based on what's happened so far, Cole and Reed will have to carry the team next year.  That said, I like our chances.

Be serious guys, this is really important for K-State, if he wasn't there who would lay down that sweet 3 for 9 action he put on us at Bramlage. I love my boy B-Rush.

You need to lay off Rush.  His poor performance is due to the fact he's mentally and physically ill.  He is ravaged with disease, and it's only because of his superhuman strength that he's able to pull himself onto the court each game.  He's only he's about 5% healthier than Damien Nash. 

Rush is amazing.  His brothers.....JaRon, Kareem, Tyrone, Rufus, LaTrelle, Theopolis, DaDoo, KerPow, TreBucky, and Festus are all trying to keep this quiet so he can sign a big NBA contract and keep `em all in Escalades and baggy pants.  So, don't tell anyone about this.

means nothing now.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

If you've watched Rush's game of late, he's nothing but a clapper in the NBA . . . maybe 2 minutes in blow out games.

Afraid to shoot, can't hit the pull up jumper, not a good ball handler.

So one and done is pretty overrated.  Good to know that Beasley will be staying longer!

Yeah but there is a difference.  Beas can be in the pros right NOW, and well rush, he needs to stay to get drafted.  If not for the rule Beasley would have $ signs in his eyes right now
It's a tremendous challenge here. I think it has the opportunity for the greatest turnaround in college football. It is not one to be taken lightly. ---------- Bill Snyder ( Nov 30th, 1988)

you guys are missing my point.  if we return everyone intact for next year no way you guys, even with beasley and walker, beat ku.  our team right now with cole added still has way more talent than ksu's team next year.  a good analogy is like us or texas.  ya texas has 2 superstars but we are still a better team than them and we still have more talent than them.  if this pans out, we have 5 legit bigs and 4 legit guards and possibly 8 nba players on one team.  we would be the deepest team in the country and most likely stay in the top 5 all year long and be the favorites to win it all.

Aldrich adds NOTHING.

Yes, even if you return everyone we will still beat you. Hell, this years game in Manhattan with our garbage wooldridge players was even for 33 minutes.

aldrich adds another big kauns size or maybe even a little bit bigger who is very good at defense and earned an all american spot for this year.  you are crazy.  i will put $100 that if we return everyone or if we only lose arthur we will sweep you guys next year as well.  the good thing is you guys are making us better and still losing to us every time.

rush was never a guaranteed lottery pick.  he came to ku instead of entering the draft out of high school because he would have been drafted in the second round.  now nba draft projects him as a first rounder and if/when he comes back that will only go higher.  so he hasn't underachieved.  he has overachieved.

No need to sling insults, I figured you were probably like most ku fans that never back up what they say but I'll make that bet at any time, my e-mail is [email protected]

 "How can a 19 year-old reject millions if it's just sitting there, especially if his coaches, out of guilt, inform him it's best to take the guaranteed money?

"Money is not a motivator for me," Wright answered. "I believe that if you have everything else in your life orderly then that will fall into place. Of course I want to play NBA basketball, but that's not the only thing out there. That's not the only way to make money, and I feel that getting a degree is always one of the most important things."

 "I didn't just come here to be an athlete," Wright said. "I'm trying to graduate in three years, and I know how hard it is to pursue a degree once you leave school like you did while you were in school. That's why I want to have my degree before I leave school."
