Poll Watch: Bye bye, Big 12 North

KSU leading the B-12 north? The numbers don't lie but just the thought makes me want to hurl. Stay out of the rankings, we (collectively in the B-12 north) stink big time.

Rodriguez brothers arrested

Unfortunately this puts us on the scoreboard for the Fulmer cup for the 1st time. Now only Baylor from the B-12 hasn't had at least one football player arrested during the off season in the 4 years or so this "award" has existed.

Jayhawk Flashback: Missouri, 3/5/2000

I'd forgotten about Hafer. He was a thug just like Jason Sutherland. Even the announcers commented about it. 2 intentional fouls in one game....what a loser! He probably cost his team the game by doing those.

Xavier Henry announces he's coming to KU

LJW is a print medium, not a broadcaster. I appreciate the fact that they tried on the press conference even if it didn't work out.

3 steps to ruling Big 12 and contending for No. 1 seed

Plus Brady's dad has already gone public with a statement that he'd pay his son's tuition if the scholarship was needed for someone else.

Aldrich, Taylor cleared to practice after sustaining minor injuries at Texas Tech

I agree with starting the seniors. In the grand scheme of things, this game doesn't matter that much. We'll get a 1st round bye in the B-12 tournament regardless, and we'll still get a higher seed in the NCAA than anyone expected at the beginning of the season. We've done better this year than anyone thought we would - in fact I can remember some discussions at the beginning of the season wondering if we'd even make the NCAA! There's no doubt about that now.

Sometimes you do things in life because they're the right thing to do, and to h*** with the consequences. If you don't live your life that way, your priorities are seriously messed up. Brennan & Matt have given their time, sweat & bodies to this program for 4-5 years now and they've earned the recognition. Both of them could've gone elsewhere and been starters, but instead they came here and mainly just played in practice, helping out the scholarship players. Bravo to them! Anyway if things start to go bad, and I'm sure they won't, HCBS can take a timeout & pull them in favor of the regular starters.

Sign creators ‘motivated to do something huge’

I would love to see this poster on a wall in AFH somewhere. Have the students offered to donate it to the Athletic Dept, or has the Athletic Dept attempted to get it?

City Commission will take up renaming Missouri Street north of Memorial Stadium

Change it! Even though Lawrence has a bunch of other state-named streets, I think it's an obscenity to have one named "Missouri", especially in light of Quantrill's "urban renewal" efforts. And nobody deserves to have the honor more than Coach Fam.

Jayhawks hurt by something they can't control

A particularly enjoyable statistic regarding Mizzery and the NCAA tournament is contained in the link below - 23 appearances, ZERO final fours. Only BYU ranks higher than Mizzery on the list of tourney appearances without a final four. OTOH, KU has been to the final four 13 times and ranks 4th on the list of MOST F-4 trips!

Feast or famine?

"four-star prospects, generally the highest-rated a recruit a school like Kansas will sign"At least Dugie didn't point out that Mizzery signed a 5-star. But he still finds ways to (perhaps unconsciously) show his bias.
