Samuel Lance
Hey everyone! My name is Sam Lance, and I am a recent graduate of the University of Kansas Journalism School. Currently I work for Adam Zagoria over at ZAGSBLOG.com and also run The Hum: A KU Hoops Podcast via the Field of 68. I'm excited to be starting on The Daily this year! Especially with me being an absolute basketball junkie. Some of my other past experiences include covering Kansas for 247Sports and as Sports Editor for the University Daily Kansan. I'm excited for what the future may hold.
The weekend in college hoops
A handful of exhibitions and fan events inched the start of the season closer. Was there anything to learn? Plus: Kansas brought in more 2026 commits, Oregon landed a famous son, more 4-star commitment news, and key injuries to monitor for the Ducks and Hoyas.

A blue blood's fresh start
Kansas revamped its roster after back-to-back underwhelming seasons. Can a freshman-led program that emphasizes defense emerge as a contender? Plus: The Jayhawks inked their PG of the future amid a busy weekend for 2026 commitments, Georgia extended Mike White, the WCC announced its schedule, and much more.
