Kansas puts full-court press on SOC's Arthur
Kansas coach Bill Self and assistant Kurtis Townsend made a beeline for South Oak Cliff after beating Baylor last night. They were wooing SOC star Darrell "Slim Shady" Arthur when I stopped by the school this morning.
It's the second time I've seen Townsend at SOC in the last week. The 6-9 Arthur, who is considering Kansas and a handful of other schools, is ranked as the nation's top unsigned recruit by Rivals.com.
I can't spot a big-time coach in a high school gym without beating them down with conversation, so I chatted with Self about the time I covered his Tulsa team's rout of North Texas. We shared a few chuckles about former UNT coach Vic Trilli, who was canned at the end of that season.
