I kinda stopped following recruiting after the Adidas thing. I figured we’d be screwed for awhile. Nice pick up though.

Combo guard with good size and decent length. Big-time scorer who can knock down shots from all three levels. Very crafty with ball in his hands and uses handle and footwork to create his own shot. Difficult shot maker with fadeaways and runners in his arsenal. Not just a scorer; has tremendous vision and can facilitate for teammates. Given his vision and scoring ability, can play on and off ball. Has size and feel to defend multiple positions. Trajectory has been extremely impressive. If continues to improve at same rate he is well on NBA path.

He actually left because he's physically unable to play the kind of defense Self wants. However...

�It was the first text I responded to,� Cunliffe told Goodman. �He was really hard on me. Seeing that text from him meant a lot to me. I wouldn�t have been able to do what I dd tonight without Kansas. Coach Self made me tougher.�

In two games with the Purple Aces (2-0), Cunliffe is averaging 17 points and five rebounds in 27 minutes per game off the bench.

After starting his career at Arizona State and transferring to KU after a semester, Cunliffe sat out the second semester of 2016-17 season and the first of the 2017-18 season before appearing in 15 games with the Jayhawks during their run to the Final Four in 2018.

I liked Cunliffe, too. He just couldn't seem to play tough or play defense. Gotta do both of those to play for Self. He may have eventually figured it out, though. Kid was a good player, otherwise.
