Despite the emotional hurdle, Hunter Dickinson iterated that he completely stands by his decision to suit up for Kansas. He also confidently added that had he transferred to the Kentucky Wildcats, he would have had similar national success as the Jayhawks.
From the opening tip, Colorado had no answers for Dickinson’s presence inside. He bullied defenders in the paint, showcased his footwork, and finished at an elite level around the rim. No matter what the Buffaloes tried, Dickinson continued to impose his will.
If the Jayhawks can string together a couple of wins before March Madness in the Big 12 tourney, it will help them build confidence. Remember, KU is the team with the most Division I experience in college basketball. The Jayhawks are dangerous if they play close to their ceiling.
