Man, even X was good at KU. (Not great by any means, but a good college player)Selden is not Selfs fault, he's just not that good same with xavier Henry.
Ben Mclemore was good at Kansas.

I'm just dumbfounded at putting Wiggins and McLemore on his list.
Wiggins -- 17.1 PPG, 6 RPG
McLemore -- 15.9 PPG, 5.2 RPG
...but Self screwed them up? C'mon man.
Regarding Wiggins, I agree he never played him at the 4. But, everyone praises Cal for getting the UK guys ready for the NBA, which, I agree, is great.I would agree, on Mclemore, in fact it's clear Self helped him, his BBIQ is horrible and was clearly hidden by selfs simple swing offense.
Wiggins Self def held him back, never played him at Small ball 4, never put him in the post, when they played stanford, didn't play him at 4 and put him at the FT line area.
X was good at KU can't lie...but I felt like he was held back, like he had so much more to show. It's no different than Ben Howlen while he was in Westwood. Some coaches are great coaches but extremely talented players don't flourish under them bc they preach system while I totally agree with. No knock at all.Man, even X was good at KU.

Can't I make the argument that's what Self was doing with Wiggins? He knew Wiggins was a 2/3 in the NBA...so, if he did play him at the 4, he's not "doing his job" and getting him ready for the NBA.
Agree 100% with what you said up top.I've been telling you guys. outside of the top 1-3 prospects, 5-40 are interchangeable.
Scouts don't have enough time to see all these guysnah that explanation doesn't work becuase it's not like he was on the perimeter doing things that NBA perimiter players, do like running multipl screen and rolls.
he was doing things bill selfs wings often do and thats swinging the ball, getting it into the post, waiting to get the ball back with floor un balance and then attacking.
also
Cal is advertising him as an NBA development factory, thats not what Self is doing.
Not a Fan of Cal at all but him getting run woke UK up..The officiating in this UK USCe game is terrible
Briscoe is so bad.
Briscoe is so trash
You right he young and crazy overrated.Briscoe is so bad.
Briscoe is so trash
???
He can't shoot, but other than that he's a hell of a player. He averages like 13, 7, and 4 per 40 mins as our 3rd guard. He's also one of the best on ball defenders and best rebounding guards in the country. Just needs to continue working on his shot and cut down on the TOs.
He's a player with flaws, but he's far from trash.
Chances getting back to the tourney is slowly drifting away
