Kansas is headed to Italy for four exhibition games in Rome and Milan. The trip allowed by the NCAA every four years comes at an opportune time as the Jayhawks attempt to replace four key contributors from last year’s Big 12 champions, and welcome six new faces that will be heavily counted upon in years to come.(AP Photo/Charlie Riedel, File)
