Selby, a 6-foot-2 combo guard, has yet to be cleared by the NCAA, which is reportedly investigating his ties to a business manager for fellow Baltimorean Carmelo Anthony. If Selby does get to play, he'll be regarded as one of the best talents in the Big 12, because he has more power and explosiveness than 99 percent of his peers in college. Taylor (pictured), a 6-3 combo guard, broke his hand throwing a punch before last season and didn't have the breakout sophomore campaign that many expected; he'll be looking to redeem himself while keeping KU atop the Big 12.
