It’s not unusual to see freshman Kohl Rosario practicing his shot on James Naismith Court before or after any given Kansas men’s basketball game. “Not everybody works like Kohl,” KU coach Bill Self said on Monday. That might not necessarily be a bad thing: “Kohl’s in the gym too much,” Self added. “He needs to go be a kid.” In fact, the KU coaches have been telling the eager Rosario, who ...
At a point in the schedule when teams are prone to sleepy play, the Kansas men’s basketball team instead woke all the way up. Charged with turning in one more strong performance before a lengthy holiday break, the Jayhawks scored 51 points by halftime, their highest-scoring half of the season, and didn’t let up all that much after the break on their way to a 90-61 victory over Davidson on Monday night at ...
