Hannah's absence saddens Jayhawks

I totally agree with you. Maximize your effort, maintain your focus, lead by example, or take a seat.

Please refer to leonard's post above. I think you will find the answer to your question.

Rush's mother knows best

What you say is true jayhawkman. I never stepped on the court, the football field, or the wrestling mat, nor any other athletic venue at the division one college level. Genetics had a lot to do with that (not too many programs hard up enough for a 5'8" 165 pound linebacker that runs the 40 in 5.3 flat). If you think I am trying to give Rush advice, you are incorrect. Are you telling me that all division one athletes need to get a pep talk from their mom to perform come game day? If this is true, why do college athletic programs need coaches? What I truely believe is that the motivation and desire to perform at one's best comes from within. You can't buy it at a store, drink it from a bottle, nor is it likely that all of a sudden you have it because of a conversation you had with your mother.

You're kidding me. Your mom has to get you motivated to play the game how it is supposed to be played. I love my mother dearly, but I didn't have to draw inspiration and motivation from her to step onto the football field or the wrestlinig mat to know what I had to do to competete. That was high school! This is division one men's college basketball we are talking about, playing for one of the most prestigious programs in the country. It's not like he just started playing basketball a few years back. He plays for a great coach, a great University and with great group of teammates. If that doesn't get him motivated to play..... maybe I just don't get it.

Keegan: Wildcats make statement with win

I don't know how good this team really is. I don't know if this team is tough enough mentally to bully their way deep into the tournament. One thing I do know, it takes six wins to cut down the nets in April, and one performance like this, we won't be the ones doing the cutting.

KU shrugs off Beasley's boasts

funnybirds

"In fact, I would not trade a KSU win at Bramlage for KU not suffering another humiliating loss in the tourney."

Wouldn't you even like to know what it feels like to be Big 12 Champions for once? I am sure that your basketball team would. Either way, not much chance of that happening this year either.

KU shrugs off Beasley's boasts

Sorry Mizzou, but you need to get in the back seat. Someone else wants to ride shotgun for a while.

Things have been very quiet on our Western front for some time now. The battle has raged on for many years to our Eastern flank, but it appears that an uprising to the West needs to be quelled before it gets out of control.

Time to take the gloves off KU. Someone wants to play "Rival" again, so let's not dissapoint them. We still have enough in the overflow tank to give them what they are asking for. As for Mizzou, sorry guys, but you can't play this time.

KU grad on a roll on Tour

Contratulations Rhino. I enjoyed bowling against you at Royal Crest, am proud of the fact that you helped KU to a National Championship in bowling, and wish you a lot of success with your professional career. You have made a huge splash on the PBA Tour. Keep up the good work; I look forward to following your career.
