Last weekend the Jayhawks played host to their first batch of junior visitors. Here at RCT we spoke with both Ben Heeney and Dylan Admire while tracking several others.
This weekend, the Jayhawks host their second group(Bensa sing your heart out). The new staff is taking full advantage of two Saturday home games in the month of February and it's definitely a good situation to be in.
Over the past week I've been following up on area prospects who will be attending and today through Saturday we'll have a listing of some of the "Junior Day Part II" attendees. I'll be adding to the list as needed during the next few days, but feel free to throw in your thoughts, ask questions and continue to get familiar with the potential 2011 players. Keep in mind, some of these are division one caliber some likely aren't but either way the Jayhawk staff is building inroads with Kansas high schools across the state.
