“I would say we haven’t talked about anything else but the tournament,” KU guard S'Mya Nichols said, “as if there’s no other option.”

KU women's basketball got 12 points in the AP poll.
Those came from five voters: Sabreena Merchant (The Athletic, No. 21); Britt Del Barba (WLKY, No. 22); Percy Allen (Seattle Times, No. 25); Murray Evans (Lawton Constitution, No. 25); and Brenda VanLengen (ESPN, No. 25).

"Some guys might come in, especially an older dude, they might come in and think, ‘Oh, I might have to run the show,'" Tyran Stokes said, "this, that, and the third, but (instead it’s been) him coming in and just listening to us and also giving us advice.”

Flory Bidunga left KU for Louisville in the offseason. Now, before he even plays an official game for the Cardinals, he will be back in Allen Fieldhouse for the exhibition matchup between the two teams on Wednesday.

This story is already outdated because TKR is going to be the first Jayhawk to wear No. 9 since 1952.
There was no reason for KU to think there would be any issue with assigning Nos. 3 and 14 to a pair of freshmen... but they had to give those jerseys up in a hurry when Tre White and Melvin Council came back late in the offseason.

One more TKR post: If you've missed this part of the discourse, his is not a traditional "5-in-5" case, nor is he a member of the class of 2022. He has argued that his redshirt year (2021-22) shouldn't be considered at all and he should get five years to actually play basketball.
Court stuff still ongoing. He has an injunction in Clark County, Indiana. The terms of that injunction are not public because the ruling has not been uploaded online. We have inquired with the clerk's office.

TKR has played a lot of his career as a power forward (no surprise there given what Purdue has had at center).
But he spent a lot of the 2024-25 season, when he was first-team All-Big Ten and averaged 20.1 points and 6.5 rebounds per game, playing as an undersized 5-man.
News: KU coach Bill Self tells the Journal-World that former Purdue forward Trey Kaufman-Renn has joined the Jayhawks for the upcoming season.
KU had a roster spot open because freshman forward Grant Mordini suffered a season-ending injury to his patellar tendon last month.

I am not up to date on the NCAA stuff, is he 100% able to play this year or court stuff still ongoing like Council and White?

Kaufman-Renn's cousin, Brooklynn Renn, is on the KU women's basketball team.
In a Journal-World story this spring, Renn called Kaufman-Renn her "best friend growing up" and "my protector."
