Both have merit and neither are outstanding positions to be in.
This also...can't believe I'm saying this...sets up as a very big Mitch game. He will not be at any physical disadvantage, and he is a shockingly efficient offensive player.
We are truly in Bizarroland where we are discussing the efficient offensive presence of Mitch Freaking Lightfoot. Hats off to the kid for the work he has put in over the years. He's like a low end Landen Lucas; not who you want to rely on but can be a solid contributor at times.
Is Mitch Lightfoot now top 10 all time in blocks at KU?

Mitch is probably Top 10 in every career category.

Mitch Lightfoot is the ultimate jayhawk. He's become one of my top 3 all time favorite role players.

1. Jamari
2. Mitch Lightfoot

Mitch is tied for 9th all time in blocks.
He is 17 away from Udoka who is at 8th.
Let's hope Mitch gets there.

Always feel nervous against Jay Wright's team, but we pretty much have no excuse not to win this time.

Jay Wright being an amazing coach who game plans well against Self's system is a good enough "excuse" but I still think Kansas can win this game.

KU is 3-5 against Villanova since Self took over.

Over the last 18 years, Villanova and Kansas have met eight times, with a ninth showdown on the horizon Saturday. Wright's Wildcats are 5-3 all-time against Bill Self's Jayhawks.

Should be 4-4 if Dotson didn't Elijah Johnson the end of a game in 2020.

He probably has some 0-1's out there if you count those.
