What if KU stuns Texas?

Agreed jwliddell. Some of the fans here are ridiculous. I could go either way on Mangino though. I do not think that he should go yet, but I would not be totally upset if he did. I think that Mark is a great coach, recruiter, and strategist, but I just don't think he does a good job getting his players pumped and ready to play. This team does have the talent to atop the Big 12 north and possibly be 9-1 right now. We are not because we have been playing uninspired lackluster play. This team has not shown up on game day all year long. In 07 we had Mangino's great coaching mixed with the inspirational leadership of Aqib Talib, James McClinton, Derek Fine, and a few others. After we lost some of those inspirational players this team has not been the same. I just dont feel that Mangino knows how to pump up a team and get them ready emotionally for game day. I think that he deserves more time than this season but if it is not granted I do believe that the talent Mark has brought in will flourish with an inspirational coach. Whatever happens I wish the program the best and hope we can recover from what has been a very bad season on and off the field. Rock Chalk.

FINAL: KU's defense collapses late in 31-17 loss to Nebraska

Wow, well I am now officially done being supportive. I have looked on and hoped and hoped and hoped, but its over. I now have no fuel in that tank. This team is an embarrassment to the university. I thank god we only have two more games. I cannot wait to see some of theses players and coaches gone after this season. This team was never good all season. I am so tired of trying to look on the bright side. There no longer is a bright side. I dont care who comments on this saying I am a fair weather fan bc I have done it and I'm not I have supported this team all season long but this group of individuals no longer deserves the term team. I love this university and I will still love this football team but for now I do not respect them and hate this season. Thank god basketball season is here.

Mangino won’t take date bait

I actually listened to everything that happened at the press conference on tuesday and it was actually quite hilarious at the time. It was a kind of running joke that Keegan could not get too much info for. I was actually hoping on tuesday that Keegan would make an article on this and it was not a fantastic article but knowing the inside of the joke I really liked it.

Mangino: Special teams not up to snuff

I'm a little surprised to hear about Daymond Patterson getting replaced. I really thought he was going to turn out pretty well. He is honestly one of my favorite players on the team. I like to hear about a young freshman getting playing time bc it speaks well for the future but it seems like every year we have a freshman cornerback that looks great as a freshman and then seemingly falls off the map. Anthony Webb, Chris Harris, and now it looks as if Daymond Patterson is doing the same. I hope that DJ can stick around for a while. I also hope very much that Patterson can find his way back into the starting lineup or at least improve for next season to form a very fast but also small secondary.

Stuckey honored

FlaHawk you are so very wrong about Stuckey. He is easily in this class. He is a fantastic safety. He has great size, speed, awareness and everything. He may not be the best in the nation or anything but he is one of them. He cannot do everything himself and sometimes he looks bad but in the end he is still a fantastic safety.

KU to meet Texas Tech at 2:30 on ABC

Come on Frisco. We may not win either game but we have chance in both of them. I really dont think that we will get blown out of either of them.

Dugan Arnett’s KU football notebook

I agree, I do not know why sharp was even in the game let alone getting almost all of the carries. He should have been let back in kind of easy and get a few carries here and there, but not getting the majority of the carries. Toben has been doing a fine job and I hope that he gets more tries next week. He is a fantastic back. I love sharp and think that he has his moments but it was not a good decision to play him saturday. Not only is Toben a better option against colorado but he is also a better pass blocker and we really needed protection last week. I hope we make better decisions this week.

Murphy setting example

Ok I think that Daymond Patterson has plenty of speed for whoever said that noone besides Stuckey has speed. I think that people are taking these comments a little bit to far. Bowen does not need to go. He will be a fine defensive coordinator. We have speed on the benches but they are young. By next season and even more after that KU will have more speed. For this season we dont have the most speed but we have a good amount and plenty of skill and athleticism. At the beginning of this season people on here gushed about this team and now they say we cant even win the North. It's really disappointing. I wish people would accept the fact that we had a bad game. We are changing our schemes and making it easier for how inexperienced this team is. Its still early in the year and they are still developing. Laptad played but did not start all of last season, Max O did not start, NONE of our LB started, Patterson only played for part of the season, Murphey did not play, Davis did not play, even Harris did not play as much as the previous season. This team is still inexperienced. We are only 5 games in. I am hoping for 14 games this season. We have a while to go. Just relax. We are fixing our problems and we will be fine. For now enjoy the fact that we are 5-0 and start acting like fans of a 5-0 team.
