Last Week: --
Kansas State Wildcats
At the Jordan Brand Classic's International Game, I found K-State's perfect replacement for departed Puerto Rican point guard Denis Clemente: 17-year-old Carmelo Betancourt Carbonell, from the PR's Bucaplaa Basketball Club. Bounce Mag called Carbonell the "most playground" player in that game, which was an accurate description -- he led his team in assists, turnovers and general showboating. But he has the skills to be a solid college point guard in a more controlled setting, and seems like a logical candidate to continue the Puerto Rico-to-central-Kansas pipeline. In the meantime, the 'Cats are fine in the backcourt, with the league's Player of the Year favorite, Jacob Pullen, running the point and ultra-efficient sophomore Rodney McGruder ready to step up and be a solid two-guard. Their frontcourt army of Curtis Kelly, Jamar Samuels, Dominique Sutton, Wally Judge and Jordan Henriquez-Roberts is among the best in the country, too.

Why is he already calling KU's backcourt of Taylor and Selby one of the best in the nation? For the most part, Taylor was pretty much garbage last season and he didn't live up to his expectations. As for Selby, he has yet to play one minute of college basketball. Very premature claim imo.

Quote from: Hawker13
KSU: one of the top frontcourts nationally?  I think not.

KSU is not a top 6 team.

with the league's Player of the Year favorite, Jacob Pullen,


Whoever wrote that is an idiot, the Morris twin is best player.  Oh, maybe benj meant Morris was best returning player, while Jake is just the best player.

Meh, if we are a mid major by that time it won't matter anyway.  Next year is quite possibly the last year of meaningful KSU sports, so let's just try and enjoy the 2010-2011 year and not worry about the fact that we are shutting down the site when we are a mid major.

5. KANSAS STATE

Record: 29-8 (Elite Eight)
Lose: Denis Clemente, Luis Colon, Chris Merriewether
Key Returnees: Jacob Pullen, Curtis Kelly, Jamar Samuels, Dominique Sutton, Rodney McGruder, Wally Judge, Jordan Henriquez-Roberts
Newcomers: Freddy Asprilla, Shane Southwell, Will Spradling

The Wildcats will certainly take a hit with the departure of floor leader Clemente, but Pullen will likely return to the point guard spot and he’ll have some experienced frontcourt guys around him in Kelly and Samuels. Senior wing Sutton is also back, and now sophomores McGruder and Judge both have a year under their belts. But the difference-maker could be Asprilla, the FIU transfer who will give Frank Martin the low-post presence K-State lacked this year.

5. Kansas State: I really could have flipped Kansas State and Baylor, and maybe I should have with Denis Clemente being the Wildcats' only major loss. Jacob Pullen will need to find a partner on the perimeter as proficient as Clemente, but the role players on the Wildcats like Jamar Samuels, Dominique Sutton and Curtis Kelly continue to improve and the depth will be hard to match. This is certainly a Final Four contender.

I hate to interrupt BMW's futile attempt at trying to make Selby seem like the 2nd coming of Oscar Robertson, but did anybody else catch that Mike Loyd Jr is basically being forced out at BYU? Tough to know the whole story, but kinda feel bad for the kid since he has not committed any truly egregious acts. In what little I saw of the kid, I was really impressed with his game, absolutely tore Florida up in the NCAAs. Gotta wonder if this was some sort of attempt to entice Fredette to come back for his Sr yr. We wouldn't want to have Jimmer share the spotlight with anyone, would we?

FWIW, Loyd's little bro, Johnathan, just signed w/Oregon, wonder if that will give Altman the inside track to land big brother.

Yeah, I know it's a little OT but BYU doesn't really have any msg board of note, so somebody's got to talk about it right?

Josh Selby is going to make Jake Pullen look like a hobo. 

It's like roles between KU and KSU fans are completely reversed.  :love:

did you see this one?

Good job, guys... now let's see if you're ranked top five next year after losing Pullen, Sutton, and Kelly. 
 



increds. love not being little bro anymore.

Probably because it's doubtful that Irving starts at the point, and that we get better or stay the same all all other positions.  Including our bench.

Oh, okay... so K-State's players are the only ones who improve during the off-season, and K-State is the only team in the Big 12 with guys capable of stepping up next year and taking on a bigger role.   Got it.

Will Whitey play more than 1 minute vs KSU next yr when he replaces CA at the 5?  I bet Seff was keeping him on the bench to keep his talents hidden until next yr.  He was as impactful a transfer as CK was, just not as obvious to outsiders.

You'd think with how much you're on here you'd know something.

Team A makes it to the Elite 8, and the next year they get worse at 1 position and better than or equal to at the other 4.

Team B makes it to the round of 32, and the next year gets worse at 3 positions and better than or equal to at the other 2.

Which team is more likely to be better?  (and yes, that is rhetorical)

Appears TKeegs and I see the same glaring problem for our Hawks next yr -- only four post players: 1 has proven to be sucky, 1 proven not very good, and 2 proven scorers against players of equal size or smaller.

Quote
Now for the player who doesn’t have a comparable replacement. Center Cole Aldrich defended such a large area of the floor, he disrupted teams that liked to take it to the hoop. His long arms, strong focus and excellent timing in blocking shots made drivers gunshy.

Not that KU doesn’t have a skilled shot-blocker. Jeff Withey, a long-armed 7-footer with good timing, blocked six shots and scored 19 points in just 45 minutes. His playing so sparingly suggests Self isn’t sure he’s the answer. If Withey plays well enough to make Self trust him, he’s the best equipped to help soften the blow of Aldrich’s departure.

Elsewhere in the post, added experience will bring improvement for Marcus and Markieff Morris and Thomas Robinson.
