HawkTrax - Kerry Meier

Keegan: Meier mature, classy

With all the mud-slinging flying through the eight years of Mark Mangino’s soon-to-end reign as coach of the Kansas University football team hogging the headlines, it ought to come as no surprise that one man standing above the fray is a guy who always has managed to sound a voice of reason and conduct himself with class and maturity.

Dynamic duo: KU’s Briscoe, Meier pack quite a punch

They try everything. Three-man rushes. Eight-man drops. Two-deep zones. Cover fours. Stunts. Double teams. Blitz after blitz after blitz.

Mangino: As of now, no players will serve suspensions

Up until two days ago, the biggest problem facing Kansas University football coach Mark Mangino was how to defend against Southern Mississippi’s quirky “Wildcat” formation.

KU’s Meier, Reesing reflect on ex-quarterback’s career

While the murder-suicide that claimed the life of former NFL quarterback Steve McNair continues to send shockwaves across the nation, it appears that the ripples of such a tragedy have traveled all the way to Lawrence.

Keegan: Reesing, Meier draw winning play in sand

A platoon of coaches on both sides watching two solid weeks of football game film from sunup to way past sundown. Memorizing formations. Devising schemes. Constantly studying. Boiling it down and drilling it into the heads of the players.

Mangino offers no excuses

Kansas University football coach Mark Mangino does not like talking about the past - or, for that matter, the future.

A new deep threat

Meier becoming long-distance target, too

Without a doubt, Kansas University junior Todd Reesing has changed the complexion of the football program. Before the 5-foot-11, 200-pound quarterback arrived in Lawrence, the Jayhawks were a lesson in mediocrity, a team that - in a good year - could hope to make a middle-of-the road bowl.

Meier rises to occasion

When the opportunity presented itself for Kansas University to leave its field-goal team on the sidelines and go for a touchdown instead, Kerry Meier knew his name would be called. And as he usually does, the Jayhawks’ most sure-handed football receiver delivered on a challenging fourth-and-seven with Kansas trailing Iowa State on the road in the third quarter. Talk about a crowd silencer.

Meier leads nation in receptions

The first time Kerry Meier ever took the football field as a wide receiver at any level was last year for Mark Mangino. Now, the Jayhawks former starting QB is the nation’s top receiver.

Keegan: Keegan: Meier faithful receiver

Ed Warinner, the mastermind behind the Kansas University football team’s no-huddle, spread offense, gets high grades for innovative thinking. An offensive coordinator’s job can grow pretty complicated, but Warinner’s most brilliant move to date was right in front of his face.
