Ron Skybaker.

Wichita State's Ron Skybaker is a Great Story

Yep, that kid from western Tatooine can ball

[Uncle Rico]

That makes Gregg Marshall = Yoda

Just think how good we'll be when Early starts playing more consistently (less turnovers) and all the bigs start making the easy shots.

I am wondering of Carter is ever actually going to make a shot. I think he's going to average 10 pts a game on 0-6 shooting, with maybe one timely dunk and then 8/10 from free throw

Okay, that is EPIC if for no other reason than pink really captures the moment for those guys.




By the way, it's certainly early, and it probably will be Early later, but Baker is the leader coming out of the gate for POY type discussion.

Yeah, I gotta admit, I'm not a big D Carter fan yet. Cle pretty much came out of the blocks with offensive results his first year even if Marshall wasn't quite pleased with his defense. Darius looks lost, much like Derail the few times I've seem him in the lineup.

I was going to post that as well. He was a story during the tournament and if he keeps playing like this, he's going to be a national story as the season rolls on. FVV is getting some serious love as well, at least during these national telecasts.

I remember a certain SN'er telling me during Ron's redshirt season, that Marshall told him that Ron could "start for KU right now". I apologize for being skeptical.

D can ball. I was so impressed last night. Didn't really know why until I saw 0 come in for mop up. He can do everything except put it in the hoop from the paint. I'm excited to see him grow into his potential. He is just going through growing pains.
