06:38 AM ET 03.31 | While Lincoln hoops star Lance Stephenson was scheduled scheduled to announce his college commitment Tuesday morning as part of the McDonald's All-American High School basketball game's media day at the BankUnited Center in Coral Gables, Fla., the Daily News has learned he likely will hold off on that announcement a little longer. Sources still strongly expect Stephenson to choose Kansas, one even adding that he's "99.9% sure" the Coney Island product will join the Jayhawks and pass on St. John's and Maryland. Sources believe Stephenson will choose a college if he is academically eligible and not follow prep star Brandon Jennings and play in Europe. Stephenson's father vows his son has taken the SATs and will be eligible to play in college next season.

Don't worry Jayhawks fans. Word on the streeets here is that Born Ready is Kansas bound. Even if it breaks my heart that another top City kid goes elsewhere.

yup-
it sucks that we lose the talent-
but at least it's Kansas...not a ham & egger school
that I can understand-
it's when they go to 'lesser' programs that I get nuts

A lesser program? You wouldn't be talking about UMD would you? In what world is Maryland a lesser program than St. Johns?

St. John's IS the lesser program out of the 3. lol like it or not, New Yorkers. I think they already know that. Anyway, what's the hold up if this guy is sposed to be Kansas bound? He may have changed his mind.

your making a bad decision. Maryland will give just as much support, has a fairly good team, a great history, and Under Armour
