KU was going to be loaded with or without Henry as Stephenson was likely to play at KU had Henry stayed at Memphis or went on to Kentucky. The upside for KU is Henry's older brother who will probably be around until his eligibility runs out although I would be very surprised if he will be eligible to play next year. The NCAA have been sticklers for the rules with a lot of transfers who have had pretty good reason to transfer (K. Lawrence had to sit out a year when he transfered to Seton Hall even after having a brother die and wanting to move closer to his family as a result). I don't think having sat out last year will make any difference; he still practiced with the team although he did not compete, the same could essentially be said for Thomas and Appleton as their competition was extremely limited and they will have to sit out next year. Sweet deal for KU having the Yankees pay for Henry's education though. Is Henry still considered a baseball prospect?kcmetro wrote: '09/'10 KU roster. This team will be LOADED.

Not sure if CJ Henry will be eligible to play or not since he's transferring from Memphis.
What KU will have next year that they did not have this year is a lot more depth. I think it's safe to say the younger Henry will most likely be a freshman that makes an impact.
