Bkf, do you follow college bball anymore? I can't remember if it's one of the things you've put on your proverbial ignore list.

I don't read SI, either.

So, does he play for Kansas now?

No, he was drafted #1 overall last year, won NBA Rookie of the Year and was just named unanimous 1st Team All-Rookie. He was also the centerpiece of the trade package that sent Kevin Love to Cleveland.

That's on top of being probably the most hyped high school player since ... Lebron? Definitely in a while. He's been in the public basketball eye for years now. If you haven't heard of him you are either trolling (100%) or simply do not watch basketball of any level at all (also highly likely, to be fair).

Meh, since Harrison Barnes two years prior.
 
ITT: man who disavows college and professional basketball goes out of his way to post on NBA thread that he's not familiar with NBA players.

Not really. I mostly quit following college basketball when Coach Knight retired. I did beat 150 people to win the local newspaper (Asheboro Courier-Tribune) bracket contest this year though...picked Duke to beat Wisconsin in the final game...but even then I didn't watch any of the games and made my picks mostly by just "cramming" with some "cheat sheets". I still like the competition of things like those bracket contests....but not enough to watch any of the games. I checked the scores occasionally on things like "gamecast" on the computer...but the only part of any game in the NCAAT that I watched was the last ten seconds of the Wisconsin-Kentucky game, when I saw on the computer that Kentucky was definitely going to lose and Coach Knight's 1976 team's undefeated record (with a team in which every single player graduated) would hold for a 39th year. At that point I quickly turned on the TV so that I could see the final reactions from the Kentucky players & fans.

He's so dominant at Kansas that they went ahead and threw him on the NBA All-Rookie team. What is becoming of college athletics. It's just all about the money.

How so? Barnes was the first freshman in history to be named preseason All-American. Wiggins was the second. Seems pretty similar to me.

Teams weren't tanking for Barnes while he was in HS.
