Moderator: Happy Friday, everybody! Travis just joined us and we’ll go ahead and start taking some questions. |
|
|
Jayhawk Fan, Kansas City: Do you regret not going to a smaller school where you would get more playing time and not have to red shirt like your former high school friend Willie Reed? |
Travis: No, not at all. Because red-shirting has made me a better player and also a better person. And it’s made me hungrier for the game. |
|
Tracy (Wichita, KS): What is your favorite thing to do aside from playing basketball? |
Travis: Just hanging out with my friends. Playing video games. |
|
DeAndre (Miami): How much time do you guys spend lifting during the off-season and how important is it for you personally? |
Travis: It depends. But usually 30 minutes to an hour every day. We probably get one or two days off a week. It’s important to stay strong and be able to keep up with everybody on the court. |
|
Jayson (Minneapolis, MN): If you had to choose one word to describe your game, what would it be? What about one word to describe your personality? |
Travis: My game–explosive. And my personality–comedian. |
|
Daniel (Raymore): Are you planning on staying with KU? And what are your summer plans? |
Travis: No, I am not going anywhere. I’m staying here. Over the summer I just plan on working out and getting ready for next season. |
|
Kye (Wichita): Also wondering if you see yourself playing the 2 or 3 more next year, and if Coach Self has given you any indication where you might see more minutes? |
Travis: I see myself playing both 2 and 3. It just depends on how Coach Self sees his lineup next year. |
|
Mike H. (Leawood, KS): What video game do you spend the most time playing? |
Travis: Call of Duty |
|
Jenny (MO): You are from this area. What do you think the best place to get BBQ is in KC? |
Travis: Gates. |
 |
 |
Moderator: Travis has to take off, but we appreciate him taking the time to answer questions today. And thanks to everyone for joining! Have a great weekend! |
