April 12, 200620 yr QUOTE(Soxfest @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 09:03 AM) He is not ready anyway no suprise. agree, rush isnt ready, i dont want him for the bulls anyways personally
April 12, 200620 yr Every Big 12 coach is a little sadder after this. I hate the Jayhawks with a passion, but BRush is a hell of a player.
April 12, 200620 yr Good player, hear he's a knucklehead, good decision to stay in school at least another year.
April 14, 200620 yr Imagine how great the Jayhawks will be in 2 years when Chalmers, Rush and Chicago Heights native Julian Wright all stay for their junior year. That is, however, a big if. By the way, did anyone ever catch one of Homewood-Flossmoor's games when Wright played there?

There is no way all those guys are there for junior year.
April 14, 200620 yr The only thing I can imagine Kansas doing in a few years is choking in the NCAA tournament like its their job. I dont see why this needed its own thread, but congrats Jayhawks. Im just suprised so many people are still talking basketball when Football is coming.

Two reasons, College bball is bigger than college Fball in the chicagoland area. 2. There is no more cbball forum, now leave us loser college bball fans alone.
April 14, 200620 yr College bball is bigger than college Fball in the chicagoland area. WHAT????? College football is huge in Chicago, just not for people who went to schools that dont have a very good college team. hehe And Im just kidding around, if Wisconsin ever had anyone as talented as Rush Im sure Id be happy he was staying too.

Compared to how nuts the fans are in the corn fields and in the south, chicago is not as huge, its mainly alumni. I am talking about growing up there is not a huge push for college football in chicago.
April 14, 200620 yr I grew up here also. Most of the people I know from Chicago dont even care about basketball since the end of the Jordan era. If you are talking about high school football in Chicago, then yes there are not as many teams because of the fact that they cant build stadiums. But then you have the Mt Carmels of the world who put out Rice and McNabb. In my opinion though more people in Chicago are football fans than basketball fans, and that is in both NCAA and professional.
