Cats check in at No. 4

Hawks a pathetic No. 5.

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.

Love these posts made on the Phog before this article came out.

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.

Luke Winn has been pumping love for K-State a lot this past year. Now he's throwing recruiting ideas our way. Gotta say, love the way this kid plays too. Hopefully we can make it happen and not someone closer to home like Miami.

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

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.

Jeff Goodman's Preseason Top 25

http://msn.foxsports.com/cbk/story/College-Hoops-Preseason-Top-25-for-2010-11-051010

Quote
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.

Just prepare yourselves for the imminent tea-bagging Selby is going to lay on Pullen next year.

So Selby will be no worse than a 2nd team all American next year right Beemers? Can we get that one in writing right now?   :popcorn:

Andy Katz's Preseason Top 25

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?columnist=katz_andy&id=5179956

Quote
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.
