This week Kansas announced the addition of another Senior, Christian Reeves, a center transferring in from College of Charleston. Having a year earlier transferred in from Clemson where he couldn't get off the bench. Having a year before that transferred in from Duke where for two years he couldn't get off the bench.
More importantly for Kansas, they received commitment for the nation's number one overall recruit, Tyron Stokes. Is Stokes enough to push Kansas past their recent rut of losing in the Tournament's first weekend?
It's doubtful. Why? This past season we've already seen how Kansas underwhelms with a super-recruit and a roster of supporting transfers shoring up experience around him.
For some reason Bill Self's Portal acquisitions aren't working out. With experienced players like Hunter Dickinson, Tre White, and Melvin Council signing up for senior seasons at Kansas, the Jayhawks should be getting the successful results that schools like Illinois and Michigan have gotten from similar aggressiveness in the Portal. Especially with wunderkinds like Darryn Peterson, and, soon, Tyran Stokes, cherry-topping the roster.
