Zuby Ejiofor commits to Kansas

Zuby Ejiofor, the 6-foot-8, 220-pound center from Garland (TX) High School just verbally committed to the University of Kansas. Ejiofor, the No. 58 ranked player in the 2022 class, recently completed a visit to Kansas and had this to say about his experience.

“My visit to Kansas was a great experience,” Zuby Ejiofor told JayhawkSlant.com on Monday evening. “It was my first time in Lawrence so I didn’t know what to expect. That being said, I was far from disappointed. On the first day of my visit, I was greeted with open arms by all the coaches of the basketball staff at breakfast.

"From the start of my trip all the way until the very end, there was a high sense of respect from the coaches to me and vice versa," he added. "It was a crazy feeling.”

During his time on campus, Ejiofor was able to spend some quality time with Kansas head coach Bill Self. Not surprisingly, Ejiofor was impressed with everything Self had to say during his visit.

“In regards to Coach Self, we met at breakfast that first morning and he sat down with us for a little bit,” said Ejiofor. “He was a very genuine man. It made me wonder what it would be like to get coached by him. We also had lunch with Coach Self where we got to know each other a bit more and finally had a 1 on 1 with him at the end of the day. Coach Self is an incredible figure.

“On my visit, the staff seemed super excited to have me there. They even showed me a few different traditions they have there.”
