2. He brings an obnoxious attitude (in a good way) that Kansas severely lacks.

Let’s face it — Dickinson acts like a jerk on the court. There’s nothing wrong with that. He’s animated, talks trash all game, and embraces the “villain” role.

It is EXACTLY what Kansas needed. KU has never been known for having big personalities, and Dickinson is just that. Not only will Dickinson bring KU more national recognition, but his name also could bring other stars to the program.

While some will not enjoy his antics, players like him make basketball much more fun to watch. His lively attitude will ignite the Allen Fieldhouse crowd dozens of times throughout the season.
