Henry is sticking with Kansas despite rumors he considered a late switch to Kentucky.
The circus surrounding Xavier Henry finally appears to be over. Tuesday night, Henry reaffirmed his commitment to Kansas by texting a Sports Radio show, “I’m goin to Kansas and that’s final.”
Comments made by Carl Henry, the father of Xavier and C.J. Henry, triggered speculation Xavier was considering backing out of his commitment. His comments also went along way towards making himself and his family look foolish.
Now that the dust has settled, Xavier and C.J. will most likely suit up for the Jayhawks next fall. Despite saying he wanted to play with his brother, there is still a chance C.J. could go elsewhere given the Jayhawks’ crowded backcourt. He’s not better than Sherron Collins, no matter what daddy says.
Kansas is absolutely loaded and is my early pick to win the Final Four next year. Bill Self will need to manage minutes closely to keep everybody happy.

This enrire family is a JOKE. if I were Bill Self I wouldn;t even want him. In fact, I would withdrawal my scholarship offer, he is obviously not 100% on board with Kansas, or daddy’s not, SOMEBODY. And no I’m not saying this because we want him at UK because I don’t particularly care.
