Xavier Booker on being offered by Kansas: "I know a lot about Kansas. I really like their coaching style and I could see myself at Kansas most definitely. Coach Roberts and I facetimed and asked to give the phone to my dad. I guess they were talking for a bit and my dad eventually gave the phone back to me and coach was still on the phone and he offered me a scholarship to play for Kansas. I was excited like I am for all my offers, but I've been watching Kansas for a while. I used to watch guys like Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embiid, so it just meant a lot to me that they offered me a scholarship and are taking the time to really recruit me." -- Xavier Booker
