Lagerald Vick has never played in a Kansas-Missouri basketball game.
Vick, KU’s 6-foot-5 junior combo guard from Memphis, has visited with several ex-Jayhawks about the sheer excitement of the series between the Border War participants, however.
“I heard there’s a lot of history behind it. I heard the games are rough. There’s a lot of rivalry there, so I feel like it will be an exciting game,” Vick said, flashing a wide smile while discussing an upcoming KU-MU exhibition game to benefit hurricane relief set for 3 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 22, at the Sprint Center.
Vick will be pleased to learn the Jayhawks lead the all-time series against the Tigers, 173-95.
