"Hey, This Looks Familiar!" -- How the 2008 Kansas Team Compares to the 2004/2005 Version
Tonight's game against the Arizona Wildcats, being the first road test and all, reminds me a lot of the 2005 contest against Kentucky at Rupp Arena, as that was that year's first road game. That team, just like this one, was jam-packed with youngsters with some veterans mixed in (Aaron Miles and...

Boston's 2008 Draft
J.R. Giddens 1. As a NBA prospect that people were calling a shaky character guy maybe he should have gone as Justin Ray for a little while.
