With less than two weeks to go until opening night and just three days until KU's first exhibition game against Louisville, we're due for another player profile. It's time to highlight No. 1 overall prospect in the land (according to 247Sports), Darryn Peterson.
The 6-foot-5 combo guard from Canton, Ohio, is the highest-rated freshman to play at Kansas since Andrew Wiggins back in the 2013-14 season. According to Bill Self, "Darryn's the best player we've recruited since we've been here." Those words alone are enough for many to take heed of what's brewing in Lawrence.
