He seems extremely uncomfortable and uptight in this PC. Look at the body language. I'll believe this kid when he actually suits up and not a minute before.

Yeah I agree rivethead. HS kids are never uncomfortable and awkward.

I wished he would say more than that or yell out "Rock Chalk Jayhawk".

Why didn't you include the question and answer part? That was the real meat of the event.

I'd say his body language seems "uncomfortable" because he's 18 years old and knows everyone is watching him. You know how you act when you're on-the-spot and nervous? That's the body language. He's not a CIA operative lieing to his wife about being a spy. He's a jittery kid.

@esj2003: We don't *know* that he's not a CIA operative.

Welcome to Kansas Xavier! No more bickering about what everyone thinks is going to happen from here on out. Xavier is a Jayhawk now and we should welcome him with open arms. He could be the missing link to a National Title in 2010.

Well then, taking my cue from Dick Cheney, if he doesn't shoot at least 45% from 3, I'll out his spy a**..........................
Welcome to KU, Xavier. Quick note: if you're reading these comment boards, stop.
Stop immediately.
Nothing good comes after midnight. Or from reading the insane blatherings of these internet fanatics.
bigjay out.

We are going to be very deep and very talented. This is very exciting! That was very much an overuse of the word "very" but damn I am "very" happy to be a KU fan today!

Everybody get to your televisions! You dont want to miss a single game next season. Invest in hdtv, dvr, whatever...
This is gonna be a SHOW!
1. Sherron Collins (backups: Elijah Johnson and CJ Henry)
2. Tyshawn Taylor (backups: Brady Morningstar and Tyrel Reed)
3. Xavier Henry (backups: Mario Little)
4. One Morris (backup: Two Morris and Thomas Robinson)
5. Cole Aldrich (backup: Jeff Withey)
The really exciting point of next season will be mid-January when the freshmen have found their place. Heck, even life after Collins, Aldrich and Henry doesnt look so bad, especially when recruiting has picked up!

i'm going to boldly predict we'll see a little more Releford as well. Having Xavier may actually help Travis improve his game. It's gonna be a sweet season. i'm gonna have to get the full court package...this seemed to help in 2007-08!
