Bangle’s KU coaching links shade Wichita State path
Garden City 6-8 junior Bangle, who orally committed to Wichita State last August, notes KU target Turgeon could stay at WSU but says Turgeon’s past shows why Kansas might pursue him. Turgeon’s résumé includes Kansas ties and a 1986 Final Four run, plus coaching stops at Oregon, Jacksonville State, and the 1990s Philadelphia 76ers stint. Bangle praises Turgeon’s honesty and contact with recruits as he remains bound to the Shockers.
