Thanks to the Kansas football program’s two-game winning streak and 2-1 record heading into Big 12 play, my past few appearances on Rock Chalk Sports Talk with Nick Schwerdt have included heavy doses of football talk.
And there was some of that on this most recent segment, with Kansas slated to take on Baylor in Waco on Saturday in the Big 12 opener.
But there was also some legit hoops news to get to and we jumped right in to talk about KU landing an oral commitment from four-star shooting guard Christian Braun, of Blue Valley Northwest, earlier this week.
Schwerdt and I broke down Braun’s game, his fit for Kansas and what the news means for the rest of KU’s 2019 recruiting class, which now has one player in the bag but could grow to as many as four or five by the time it’s all said and done.
Whether it’s football talk or hoops news you’re looking for, you’ll find it in the segment below so give it a listen.
You also will learn about Schwerdt’s quest to come up with a new rankings system for high school recruits. We already have the star system and the overall ranking numbers. But Nick’s looking to add a third measurement to the game.
Good idea? Bad idea? You be the judge.
