I can't speak for all KU fans but I think it's mainly Carl just talking to the media. I've never heard one negative word out of Xavier. In all his interviews he's real down to earth, always smiling and a yes sir/no sir young man. Regarding how the fans will react to them is easy. KU fans will love them. The minute they run out of that tunnel the crowd will love them. The minute they get on campus they will love them. Of course all this drama the last few days has people upset...but that will be forgotten. KU fans are passionate (sometimes to a fault) about hoops and their players. A KU hoops players is family...sometimes family has flaws....but still family.
Honestly, this is why you haven't seen me stressed at all with this or going off in threads or anything. I really want X and CJ at KU but if for some odd reason they aren't that's cool. Life goes on and KU has a ton of talent, is in on a ton of talent in the upcoming classes and has, IMO, the best basketball coach in the game. I'm as hardcore and passionate and uptight as they come about KU but I'm really not sweating it anymore. That is how much I believe in Bill Self. And really I feel the exact same way with Jeff Capel. I seriously used to worry about OU getting players or if they missed out on a guy I was upset. Not anymore because I know Capel is going to get someone else that is great. It's a nice feeling to have.
