LAWRENCE — So, where were you at 11:15 a.m. Tuesday?
Actually by that time, Kansas basketball fans were rejoicing.
Andrew Wiggins declared himself a Jayhawk six minutes earlier than his scheduled announcement. Me? I was in the bathroom. Thought I timed the break perfectly. Turns out I didn’t, but I learned of the decision soon enough.
Used to be we were on pins and needles over this sort of thing. Now, we’re on Twitter.
In the case of Wiggins, the nation’s top recruit kept his announcement so secretive, even KU coach Bill Self learned the news monitoring tweets.
