BOULDER — The Colorado men’s basketball program does not anticipate signing any high school players during the eight-day early signing period that began Wednesday. But the Buffs may add a transfer.

As early as later this week, Colorado is expected to get a visit from former Kansas guard Conner Frankamp, who announced on Oct. 31 that he will leave KU and transfer to another school.

Last weekend, Frankamp took a visit to his hometown school, Wichita State.

A sophomore in eligibility, Frankamp (6-foot, 165 pounds) was a four-star recruit coming out of Wichita (Kan.) North. Rivals.com ranked Frankamp as the nation’s No. 34 overall prospect for the class of 2013 that included notable KU signees Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embid.

“This was disappointing to us,” Kansas coach Bill Self said of Frankamp’s announcement that he will transfer. “Conner is a fine young man, a very good basketball player, and he was certainly part of what we envisioned, not only for the future but also as an impact guy (this season).”

Known as a sharpshooter from long range, Frankamp played sparingly last season as a freshman at Kansas, averaging 2.2 points per game. He did average 11 points during the NCAA Tournament, going 7-for-14 from 3-point range.

“I’ve been thinking about (transferring) for a while,” Frankamp told reporters last month. “I love KU and I love the Jayhawks … but I just don’t feel like it’s the right fit for me. I want to be at a place where I can play a bigger role.”

Frankamp is taking classes at Kansas this semester but no longer is a member of the Jayhawks basketball program. If Frankamp transfers prior to the beginning of the spring semester in January, he could be eligible to play for his new school in December 2015, immediately at the conclusion of the 2015 fall semester.

Colorado has only one scholarship to offer during this recruiting cycle, with guard Askia Booker being the only current senior on scholarship.

Last spring, the Buffs signed Josh Fortune, a guard who transferred from Providence. Fortune, a 6-5 junior, is sitting out this season per NCAA transfer rules but has impressed coaches during Buffs practices.
