KU Gets Commit from 2024 PG ��
Labaron Philon has committed to Kansas.
The Jayhawks officially landed the 6’4” point guard out of Branson, Missouri, on Monday evening. Philon is ranked No. 27 nationally by 247Sports and the No. 3 PG in the country.
KU’s 2024 class is shaping up to be a legitimate all-timer for Bill Self. They already landed a commitment from 5-star Flory Bidunga and are all-in on the No. 1 player in the country Cooper Flagg (more updates to come there).
One source compared Philon to a taller, more athletic Dajuan Harris. The source said Philon’s competitiveness and feel for the game reminds them of Harris.
And if you don’t believe the source, just look at what Philon posted on his Instagram.
well get ready to be blown away with your visit to Lawrence buddy :-)

Three of the most decorated college basketball programs in the country, vying for his services for what will likely be just one season. Flagg is projected by some to be the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Flagg’s visit to UConn came with surprisingly little social-media fanfare. There was a video of him arriving at Gampel Pavilion, accompanied by UConn sophomore center and family friend Donovan Clingan, on Friday afternoon. There were several pictures posted on Twitter of Flagg posing with fans at Saturday's UConn football game. At one point, the somewhat sparse student section broke out into a chant of “Coo-per Flagg! Coo-per Flagg!”
Dude gets to witness the greatness of Late Night where he'll be introduced to a rambonxious crowd, then go watch the 5-0 football team kick UCF's arse the following day. [Reply]

I don't know, man. Self has had mixed results with these one and done types. He seems to do much better with guys that are in the program for 3-4 years. [Reply]

Having a mix is best. I think we’ll have plenty of experience returning.
