Bill is looking like a genius so far. Sam's minutes at Louisville are shrinking as they enter conference play.

@BShark

Sam will be fine.

But Braun certainly looks like the right guy for KU

@BeddieKU23 Definitely. I just remember the meltdowns (not necessarily here) when this all happened. This less :helicopter: parents the better imo.

I get why there were meltdowns, recruiting was down in the dumps and Sam was someone the fanbase was really familiar with. Then you watch him go to Louisville and become an All-American etc etc.

Braun is rapidly improving in the heart of the schedule. It's a great thing to watch.

@BeddieKU23 When I watch them play I can really tell why the staff preferred Braun. He's more athletic and more of a playmaker.

Sam is a guy I thought was very intriguing when he was basically unranked and KU was his only real offer but he is going to need time and improvement to be good at this level. So far he's been a negative offensively based on stats. Maybe not playing within the framework of the team? Idk as I don't watch a ton of Louisville but he is a bit of a chucker.

I thought it would take longer for Braun too, but I am hopeful that he has turned a corner. He looked lost before and now he looks very confident.

Honestly forgot about him after Ochai went supernova early last year. I like Braun more as a guard, Sam is a pure wing. And we got Grant-Foster anyway who's going to be really good. Bill knows what he's doing
