Kansas’ Taylor bounces back from ‘freak night’

Even after a year of prep school, BRush wasn't built as well as X. I'm not sure BRush looks as stacked as X now.

Documents show what it looks like when Mangino loses his temper

Getting high level talent to come to Kansas is hard enough without dealing with the fact they are signing on to play for a morbidly obese man who is absolutely disagreeable. TA was too soft, Mangino is apparently too hard. I didn't realize you could be too hard to be a football coach, but a five game losing streak in a down year with the best talent we've put together yet proves it. They've quit on him. And I don't see how anyone else would want to play for the guy.

Investigation of Mangino launched after player complains coach poked him

I don't want to hear that soft schedule crap anymore. In 2007, we didn't play OU or Texas. But OK State was every bit as good as Tech that year. In fact, the Pokes beat Tech in 07. But we beat the crap out of every team in the north except Mizzou. Now, we are two year laters with talent that is just as good and we are the worst team in the North. Something is very wrong. Orange Bowl to conference doormat in so little time. And players aren't responding to Mangino anymore. How sad.

Title IX suit targets KU men’s athletics

I like it. How often do men actually win these kind of cases? I remember when they did away with men's swimming and tennis. There was a lot of pain, anxiety. KU put these guys out like they were nothing. What would you do if you were told your scholarship is gone and the doors at this school are closed to you unless you pay for an education that is really not so cheap. Back then, the KUAC was suffering for money. They are doing just fine now, they can afford to bring back men's swimming, tennis. Even gymnastics or wrestling. This state is too talent rich not to have a wrestling team at KU.

Little to red-shirt this season, Self says

Our backup at the wing is Doug Funny or Zac Efron. I think it'd be best for someone to else to back X. So redshirting Releford doesn't look likely. f it isn't going to be Mario Little, then it will be either Marcus Morris or Travis Releford. I'm sorry, but Morningstar and Teahan are not good options to have in a game any longer than five minutes tops. Putting them in is a major drop off from all the talent that Bill Self has brought in.

Reed a leader for Kansas men

Everyone thought Jeff Boshee was something great. And we gave a North Dakota kid, an opportunity to play D-I ball. I think he may have even been the first North Dakota guy to play at this level. Don't tell me that Reed isn't as good as him. All Boshee did was shoot threes. He wasn't a great defender, he wasn't really a scorer. I think Tyrel Reed is passed him as a basketball player. He's already shot a better overall percentage. He's turn the ball over a lot less. Tyrel has shot threes only one percentage point less with a line extended from when Boshee played.

Reed may not play a lot, but I think we can agree that Jeff Boshee would be hard pressed to find minutes on this team as well.

Reed a leader for Kansas men

We won't ever have to hear about Tyrell getting in a fight or getting a DUI. I'm quite sure of that. He comes from a very good upbringing. And he has always done everything he is supposed to and nothing that he is not. He loves Kansas, and I'm glad he has gotten the opportunity to play here that so many Jayhawk loving kids from Kansas haven't.

Holt's promotion means 6 former Jayhawks are on active NFL rosters

This should make you appreciate how special that 07 team was. Hardly any of its guys were deemed pro material, yet they just went out there and beat the crap out of everyone they played. No letdowns to guys like Iowa State or Colorado. They played with a chip on their shoulder. And this year, we just aren't.

Former KU basketball player Billy Thomas picked up by D-League expansion team

I'll never understand how NBA minds work. Surely a seasoned ball player has more to offer to a team than some wet behind the ears 20 year old who has barely done anything at even the college level.

Meier could be answer

If Todd Reesing throws "wobbly", what do you call it when Kerry Meier throws? His ball comes out like a retarded torpedo. And his accuracy sucks. Its obvious that he wasn't a pass first QB back in Pittsburg. Meier can't play two positions at once. He moves to QB, and we lose not only a capable gunslinger but an all conference WR as well.

K-State is still a joke for resurrecting a has been coach who runs the QB option read offense. And he still doesn't know how to defend the spread offense. This team gave up 66 to Texas Tech. Nebraska still has no offense, and Mizzou is still Mizzou. Now get it together. There is no excuse for losing to any of these teams. We are supposed to be the best team in the North, its time to start acting like it.
