He Will, He Won't, He Might 2018: Devon Dotson

All right, now that we’ve had a few days to digest KU’s first exhibition game of the 2018-19 season, it’s time to get back to the He Will, He Won’t, He Might predictions. After all, the regular season is now just eight days away and we’ve got a few more to get to. Because two of them started the other night, it seems only right to jump to the freshmen on this roster, who make up nearly 50 ...

In fact, ShotTracker, which both KU and Emporia State used during Thursday’s 93-55 exhibition victory by Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse, is far from the only ...

He Will, He Won't, He Might 2018: Marcus Garrett
