Nice article by Matt Tait talking about the increase in transfer activity over the last few decades.
Tait: Cunliffe the latest Jayhawk to impact growing transfer trend and Kansas basketball

Very interesting data. Of note are the successes former Jayhawks had elsewhere. Shows that they could play, but for whatever reason the fit with KU just wasn't there.

Hope y'all have a great weekend!

Rock Chalk!

Definitely a good read.

As far as transfers go, does leaving the program count? I ask because I thought Zach Peters left for medical reasons (as one commenter noted following the article).

These are other names that come to mind who left the program. The notes in the parentheses are why I thought they left, but I'm definitely not 100% sure. If anyone could add more info, it would be greatly appreciated.

Nick Bahe (sought more playing time)
CJ Henry (disgruntled/Yankees)
Tyrone Appleton (sought more playing time)
Braeden Anderson (NCAA issue–Canadian, never played a game)
Naadir Tharpe (after jr year, conduct issues?)
Jack Whitman (not sure why, but never played a game)
Evan Maxwell (not sure why, but never played a game)
