ThShiver.com: The sports leader in University of Kansas basketball and football recruiting

The  20 – 1 Kansas Jayhawks head down to the United Spirit Arena in Lubbock, Texas to take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The game will be broadcast at 7pm on ESPNU. Texas Tech is 11-11, 3-4 in the Big 12 this year.

As a team, against ranked opponents this year, the Red Raiders are purely awful.  Check out these numbers:

At number 22 Washington, they lost 108 to 79. Senior Washington Forward, Justin Holiday, 6-6 and 185 pounds, layed down 20 points on them and 9 rebounds to go along with 4-7 from 3-point land. Guard Isaiah Thomas had 16 and 4 assist.  Texas Tech pretty much didn’t guard holiday on his open 3s and jumpers. The Huskies moved the ball and scored at will.

2013 SF Ishmail Wainright (Raytown, MO/Raytown South video) was one of many recruits that had the opportunity to up close and personal as the Kansas Jayhawks put away Kansas State inside Allen Fieldhouse. The short trip west for Wainright wasn’t his first, and it certainly won’t be his last with likely almost two years left before he makes his final college decision. Read the rest of this entry »
