Xavier Henry picks Kansas

I bet the Kentucky message boards will melt down if this is turns out true. I also believe Walls will sign with Duke.

Uk boards will go into melt down if Wall doesn't come to UK. Seems most "thinking" UK fans didn't really think Henry was coming.

People forget the bad blood between Kentucky and Kansas that stems from the beating Roy Williams and Co. administered to the Cats during Pitino's first year. The two programs don't much like each other. The Henrys would let their sons play for Cal at Memphis. They weren't about to let them go to Lexington.

I assume you're referring to the beatdown in Lawrence where Roy continued to press even though UK was down 50+ and had no timeouts? From what I know about Roy, that beatdown (bush league imo) was sort of a proxy battle administered on behalf of UNC. People inside the UNC program (and it all started with Dean - a KU grad) generally despise the Kentucky program for its past indiscretions. I've actually heard Bill Guthridge talk about how dirty they thought Kentucky was.

I don't know may people in KY that have bad blood toward KU. Not saying you are wrong but Pitino's first year UK was still on or just coming off probation and UK was not very good to say the least. Rupp came from KU so that has to help with any bad blood toward KU.

UK fans hate Duke and that is about all they talk about.

That's beside the point when you intentionally embarrass an inferior opponent to the point of holding them up to ridicule.

Will he qualify for Duke? Last I heard he still hasn't taken his SAT/ACT.

Kansas 2010 looks like a more unstoppable force than North Carolina 2009.

Do what? Teams from the 90s would have trounced these modern day posers. Lack of big men and experience has destroyed the strength in college ball.

Who said anything about the 90s?

I am also not sure about the Kansas 2010 vs UNC 2009 statement.
