I don't believe Vargas can play in the SEC, but I'm not positive.

 

He took an official visit to UK.

Jones will stay out west, perhaps with Washington. Lamb & Selby both end up @ KU, which would be to the benefit of them both.

 

I agree with you on Jones staying out west. However, Kansas is projected to have 7 guards on the roster not counting the guys getting added. They don't have the room for too many more.

That was back in August. If I recall correctly, some stuff developed between then and now, and he is not allowed to play in the SEC. :idunno:

I think Lamb is waiting to see what Bledose does.

Good point on their guard heavy roster.

 

But they only have one commit that I see--Woolridge--a shooting guard (ranked #117 in Rivals). Assuming Henry goes pro (which I think he will), their top returning guard will be Tyshawn Taylor, who averages around 8 points a game. Morningstar, who averages 6 per game, would be the next top returning guard.

 

When you look at the top remaining guys in the 2010 class, the ones left are guards, and KU is after 3-4 of them (Knight, Selby, Lamb, & Terrence Ross). The ones left that aren't guards (like Jones & Leslie) don't have KU listed. So evidently Self sees guards as a need. Surely he can sell that to 1 or 2 of these guys. "Hey, I'm losing Sherron Collins & Xavier Henry. I need two guys who can step in and pick right up where they left off."

 

Both Lamb & Selby I think would walk into starting spots @ KU. I feel confident one of them ends up there, but I honestly think they both do.

Could be. I haven't been able to find any recent news about him. He sounds like a talented guy, but might have some other issues, namely with grades.

I think we get Knight/Selby, Leslie, Lamb, and then of course Poole. Maybe even Ratliffe from the JUCO system. That class would be fantastic.

I just read where Lamb has narrowed his choices down to 3 schools: Arizona, Kansas, & UK. He says he's going to wait to commit until April, because he wants to see who goes pro. That could mean he's waiting for Bledsoe, or it could mean he's waiting for Henry.

 

Meanwhile, several sources say that Brandon Knight could commit to UK very soon.
