Kansas alum David Booth purchased the original Naismith basketball rules with the expressed intention of displaying them on the KU campus.

“The university and athletics and everybody — endowment, alumni, the Booths — we’re all going to get together and work this out and come up with a great plan,” said Jim Marchiony, an associate athletics director for Kansas Athletics Inc.

The Booths are expected to convene with the University sometime in the next few weeks to start formal discussions about creating an appropriate venue for the documents.

Naismith's rules were purchased for $4.33 million, a sports memorabilia record.
