Did the BCS get it right?

Besides Alabama, who are the other undefeated teams? Let's see...Boise State, Ball State, and Utah. I know, 90 percent of you just puked. Well tell that to OU a couple years ago when BSU beat them in that bowl game. I'm sick of this superior stuff about BCS conferences. And I am a Jayhawk through and through. The truth still stings. Without a system to find the real champ, the BCS is BS. And they got it wrong when OU is number 2 and there are 4 undefeated teams. At least a playoff, if the right teams (read undefeated teams) got included. And that has to include non-BCS schools that prove it on the field. Like I said, you can flame away, but BSU proved it when they got a chance. That was the championship bowl in January of 2007.

Kansas opens exhibition season with 98-79 victory over Washburn

I believe HCBS won't worry about getting set on a starting lineup the first half of the year. In addition with experimenting to learn what works best, I think coach will use playing time and starting as strong motivational tools. What will he look for? In addition to the obvious gametime performance, I expect three things to determine who plays. First, consistency during games. Game film will reveal who takes off during some plays and who goes closest to 100%. Second, who sells out to great intensity on defense. Finally, how is the young man practicing? Again, this will all be balanced against sheer talent. Just some random pre-game thoughts.

Forward commits to women's team

Congratulations Coach Henrickson and the entire Lady Jayhawks program! This is exciting news and shows that the program continues to build to a new level of success. Let's see the Women's program become a national power like the men and make AFH a place where all opponents worry about coming away with a win. Rock Chalk Lady Jayhawks!

Keegan: Rebel returns to town

Thanks Tom, it is good to find out about such KU connections. We probably would never know without this kind of resource. I remember those fights. Still say Hagler beat Leonard!

Hinson to join KU men's basketball staff

To the posters who don't think this is breaking news, I do. Ryan was right. We do care about the makeup of the team, and this position is part of it. Remember the stories about Danny's involvement with individual players when he filled the same position?

This person has direct and personal interaction with the players. Plus, a former head coach at a Missouri Valley university is a coup for Bill. That's a lot of talent and experience coming to help us maintain our excellence.

Guys, if you don't want "Breaking news" about the Hawks, what are you doing cruising this site?

Self prepares for Canada

I wish I could afford to follow the Hawks on this trip. Besides the natural beauty of the area and the warmth of the people, this is the birthplace of James Naismith. His first degree came from McGill. How cool is it for the legacy of what he started to be playing the game he invented where his early years were spent? I hope the players and coaches know about this and take a little extra pride in representing Kansas Basketball.

Woodling: Stadium pretty, imperfect

Wouldn't be the same off campus. I, for one, will trade driving and parking convenience for the atmosphere that makes it unique. Keep it going Fighting Manginos!!

Robisch to be inducted

I met Dave after the KU Legends game at Allen in 1999. He was most gracious and easy-going. I'm glad I had that opportunity. Dave certainly was, and I am sure still is, proud to be a Jayhawk.

Another Invite crown for K.C.

Thanks Ryan! It is so incredible to have this kind of information and service. Growing up in Wichita in the 60's and 70's, I never dreamed of having access to such sources. Now I'm spoiled.

Are we looking at any of the KC guys? Are any of them looking at us?
