Wright’s role clarified

Phoenixhawk and okiedave you both hit the nail on the head. Lew and the new Chancelor have returned us to the dregs of football. I will be giving up my season ticket that I have held for 12 years and will be telling Lew why I am. I encourage others to do the same. We need to get rid of this overbearing money sucking -------.

What if KU stuns Texas?

Saidtoomuch, your name is appropiate. I have played football, been in the military, etc. and although I didn't have any coaches that would get in my face (I wish they had, I would have been a better player) I guarantee the discipline in the military can be pretty damn rough. I have always stated that thou the military would have been a poor career for me, I thank god I spent 3 years in the Army. It helped me become a better person and if MM's dicipline is helping the players grow up, which I think it probably is, then more power to him. I am just sick as to what Lew has done to our football program. He needs to be fired and I will give up the 5 hour drive one way and my season tickets until he is.

Drama takes away from game

If Mangino did comment on the player's family life that was totally out of line. I still feel there are too many wimps out there. I like Kerry Meiers quote. But at this point Lew and the media have totally ruined the KU football program. If the disrespecting of the players families went on Mangino should be severly disciplined. But no matter which way it goes, KU football goes south. Too bad that Lew didn't have the professionalism to keep it in house until the final decision was made. And how is having a member of Lew's athletic department doing the investigation considered "independent". I have usually defended Bill Mayer against his naysayers but I sure can't this article. I agree with KUbsee69, please retire

Harris voices his support for coach

I don't trust Lew any further than I could throw him and that is about as far as I could throw MM. The only difference in their eating habits are that Lew spreads it over a 6'5 frame. Some of you must want to bring back Terry Allen. He for sure didn't yell at any one or poke them. I have only seen rumors on here that there were several parent complaining about MM. Lew has totaling screwed the future of this football program by going public. All he is good for is kissing a-- of the big money people. And he may not even be that good at that had to bring in John Hadl and Gale Sayers to do it for him.

Mangino wins games, not friends

You naysayers make me sick. Damn liberals oh sorry that's what I am. Too bad some of you don't have the opportunity to coach. I'd love to be a fly on the wall and see you sqirm

Some of you people crapping about MM should go cheer for MU. Unless MM actually hit a player Fast trigger Lew should get off of it. I remember when a lot of you wanted to get rid of Bill Self. These are college football players not preschool children

Investigation of Mangino launched after player complains coach poked him

As I wrote and told Lew a few years ago, get rid of Mangino you get rid of this season ticket holder who was loyal enough to suffer through the Terry teams. Maybe LEW is the one who should go. As far a mM never taking the blame, I hear him taking the blame every time they lose on the post game show. It's not the coach who fumbles, throws bad passes, throws interceptions, drops passes, don't get down the field and tackle on kickoff and punt returns or kickoff to the 5 yrd line when lucky.
Get off Mangino's back, get on Lews back He is the world's biggest ass kisser.

Mangino likes new-look offensive line

I know a lot of people thought I was crazy in stating that Bo Pellini ran the score up. I still do. My definition of running the score up is scoring when it is not needed. We could get beat by 40 and I wouldn't complain because I realize that the players have to keep playing and if during the course of the game they stomp you, too bad. But when the game is won with 29 secounds left and you can take a knee to run out the clock but instead you run a play to score, that is running up the score. Our coach would not have tried to score, he would have taken a kneee as would have Bob Stoops. Our basketball team and most basketball teams generally do it when leading by an insurmountable amount in the last few secounds pull the ball out and hold it. So to those who thought I am crazy, bunk.
