Unbreakable...

So I was pretty hyped when Mario Little (aka Elijah Price) started practicing again recently and looked forward to seeing him pick up where Brandon left off last year. Appears I will have to wait a little longer...

I think it's worth considering, by if we can still get 20+ games out of him then maybe you stay the course. Really sucks that Bill brought in jucos to help transition in the new guys and one can't get healthy and the other can't get off the bench.

Yeah would be nice to see a little more Tyrone...

It'd be nice, theoretically. But given what we've seen so far and heard out of practice, I wouldn't count on it. We may have to accept that his scholarship is a bit of a waste. Good thing we have guys like Teahan to walk on. Speaking of, shouldn't Brady be giving up his free ride to someone else?

If life was fair and those who could afford it paid and since he is such a "team" player I would think that would be a stellar idea.

BTW I am still a big releford fan and he is seeing a lot of bench as well. How you figure he got on the shit list? He was seeing a lot more time early on.

Humm I missed this somehow in the star but maybe it is a sign he will get some more PT.

“It’s pretty frustrating,” Releford said, “but I’m going to continue to work hard and do everything they tell me to do.”

They, of course, are his coaches. KU coach Bill Self was asked Wednesday about the development of his five freshmen. Unprompted, Self expressed regret at his management of Releford’s playing time thus far.

“Travis, to me, is a guy that we have to find more minutes for,” Self said. “That’s on me and the staff as much as anybody to take advantage of the things he does well.”
