Two questions. Two grades. Fit measures resemblance to successful KU roles. Impact estimates next-season production in Kansas’s conference context. The impact model passed historical full-season tests; November projections are experimental.

THE PROGRAM, IN PROFILES
Kansas DNA.
Different great Kansas teams won in different ways. These six overlapping roles draw their statistical benchmarks from rotation players on the 2008, 2012, 2018, 2020, and 2022 teams. A player can fit more than one role.
These are descriptive historical profiles, not proven causes of winning. Role definitions are transparent rules; benchmark values come from data. 2018 reflects on-court performance, including subsequently vacated results. 2020 is included despite the canceled tournament.

A complete regulation rotation uses 200 player-minutes. Role coverage is descriptive; you do not need every archetype, and this prototype does not predict team wins. Eligibility remains unverified for every player.
