Silenced by NCAA rules, Kansas coach Bill Self cannot comment on the oral commitment of Marcus Garrett until the 6-foot-5 Dallas Skyline High School senior combo guard signs his national basketball letter-of-intent on Nov. 9.
Self can, however, discuss the significance of the Aug. 1 pledge by Garrett, rated No. 44 at guard in the Class of 2017 by Rivals.com.
“You’ve got one commitment, which is a nice start, but certainly there’s a lot more to be done. Our thought is to sign six — five or six,” Self said in an interview with The Kansas City Star.
