Dad of Dedric and K.J. Lawson discusses possibility of duo's return to Memphis

Keelon Lawson, the father of Kansas forward Dedric Lawson and guard K.J. Lawson, said Monday in a Memphis radio interview that in a worst-case scenario regarding the FBI’s investigation into college basketball, the brothers would consider a transfer from KU back to Memphis, where they started their college careers.

“Well, if something goes down with Kansas, if Penny (Hardaway, the new Memphis coach) would open the door for them to come back … if something goes down with Kansas as far as Coach (Bill) Self being fired, I think the boys would entertain it (a return), you know what I’m saying?
