          Power forward Carlton Bragg (No. 18 in ESPN 100) committed to Kansas on Thursday over finalists Illinois and Kentucky, giving coach Bill Self a five-star prospect and the best senior the state of Ohio has to offer.

          Let's take a look at why Bragg picked the Jayhawks and what he will bring to Lawrence.

          Why he committed: "I really like the way coach Bill Self develops his players," Bragg said. "The atmosphere was crazy when I went on my visit, and I felt the most comfortable around the players. It was brotherly love there and I have the full support of my family and coaches and they think I made a great decision."
