“This Nonsense Needs to Stop”: Fans React As Timberwolves’ Draftee Signs for Bill Self’s Kansas
Bill Self has made good use of the offseason, adding 10 new players to Kansas’ roster. Their headline addition was freshman Tyran Stokes on April 28, as the No.
Fans have expressed their disapproval over Kansas' decision to sign Trey Kaufman-Renn, a former Purdue player, with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The decision came about after weeks of uncertainty, following the injury to freshman Grant Mordini. Kaufman-Renn, who spent the previous season with Purdue, was selected as the 59th pick in the 2026 NBA draft.
However, he never signed a professional contract, allowing him to return to college for a sixth year, as per the court ruling. Despite playing in the Summer League, Kaufman-Renn has faced backlash from fans. One fan commented, "I said I didn’t like this when other programs do this. In the name of keeping that same energy, I do not like this.
Rock chalk, but this nonsense needs to stop." Kansas made 10 new additions to their roster this offseason, with Kaufman-Renn being the latest, joining the team on April 28 as the No. 1 overall recruit from high school.
