LAWRENCE, Kan. – Men’s basketball freshmen Ben McLemore and Jamari Traylor are enrolled at the University of Kansas and have begun going to class, head coach Bill Self announced Thursday.

 “The NCAA and the Big 12 have cleared both Ben and Jamari to enroll and attend class,” Self said. “They (the NCAA) are still reviewing information to determine their final status concerning participation. Both are on scholarship and have been cleared to be here. Now we are just waiting to hear the final status.”

“(It’s) not like Josh’s (Selby) situation last year but there are a few similarities that do take time in responding to academic materials,” Self said.

On KU freshman Braeden Anderson, Self said “We hope to have an answer by the end of the working day tomorrow (Friday).”
