At some point last week, Oak Park senior Ochai Agbaji accepted a curfew on his phone. A call after 11 p.m. would be sent to voicemail, and texts would go unanswered. The rule was implemented by his father, designed to put structure inside a chaotic basketball recruitment.
Agbaji silenced the noise in another manner Thursday, when he announced his plans to attend Kansas on a basketball scholarship.
Flanked by family and coaches with the student body sitting behind him, Agbaji, a 6-5 senior wing, made his commitment official Thursday during a ceremony inside the Oak Park High School gym.
