This week, TSN associate editor Jeff D'Alessio talks life with the Missouri sophomore, named to TSN's preconference All-America team, about hair and his brother's early departure from UCLA.

TSN: What's your brother, JaRon, up to these days?

KR: My brother's in L.A., playing for the ABA 2000 team out there.

TSN: After what he went through--leaving UCLA after his sophomore year and then not getting drafted--would you consider going pro this year?

KR: I've already said I'm coming back for another go-round. We're going to be really, really good next year. I want to see if we can get to the Final Four.

TSN: Are you prepared to get asked that question 1,000 times the next three months?

KR: Yeah. It's an honor to be mentioned as someone that could go in the NBA Draft but I've got a lot of things to work on. I'm not ready--mentally, physically or socially--to deal with that stuff.
