Kansas basketball video coordinator/former Jayhawk guard Jeremy Case checked out the 888 Lofts Building in downtown Lawrence earlier this week after getting recruited by KU coach Bill Self to rappel down the luxury apartment complex at 11 a.m. Saturday.
“It’s actually kind of high. It’s pretty high. It’s about eight stories, man,” Case said with a laugh on Wednesday afternoon.
Case and KU assistant coach Kurtis Townsend on Tuesday agreed to descend the seven-story structure as part of Saturday’s Boys and Girls Club fundraiser with their fearless leader — Self — who had accepted the challenge back in mid-May.
