Jayhawks reinstate PG Taylor

Kansas point guard Tyshawn Taylor's suspension has been lifted after two games.

Coach Bill Self said the junior would be in uniform Wednesday night when the second-ranked Jayhawks host No. 24 Texas A&M in their final home game of the season. It's not clear whether he will play.

Taylor was suspended for an unspecified violation of team rules. Self has declined to say what the infraction was.

Sophomore Elijah Johnson has started in Taylor's place and has done well. Self indicated he was growing impatient with Taylor, who has struggled at times trying to replace departed All-Big 12 point guard Sherron Collins.

Self said earlier in the week that Johnson would start if the NCAA tournament were this week.
