Brady Morningstar delivers open letter to KU fans

Brady,
When I was your age I did the same thing, however, I never had to write an apology to anyone. I did however learn from my mistake and now, 20 years later, still have learned not to repeat it. I can only imagine making this mistake and having the entire world know and talk about it, how much more of a learning experience this is for you than it was for me.
Everyone makes mistakes...there's nothing wrong with that as long as you LEARN and grow as a person from those mistakes, that's called wisdom.

Pierce not the same player?

well said jayhawkdon !! PP was always my favorite Jayhawk since he put on a kansas uniform, but after last season how can you top that? I was so proud of him. having said that, I'd like to see another Jayhawk get a ring... Kurt, Darnell......doesn't matter, as long as the NBA Jayhawks spread the success between them.

Rock Chalk Forever !!

Q&A on the recruitment to KU of Xavier and C.J. Henry

Interesting discussion regarding the coaching styles of Roy and Bill. Some good points have been made, here's my take.

As stated earlier Roy pushed a fast pace and depth while letting the players play, and Bill is a more hands on coach during the game, everyone seems to agree there.

The thing that always got me is how during the regular season our strength with Roy was fast with a depth that simply wore down opponants, but during the tournament that strength was negated by all the TV timeouts giving our opponants a chance to catch their breath, which is why Roy never one the big one at KU. I just couldn't understand why Roy finally won it at UNC.

Both are great recruiters. I think that Bills hands on style of coaching is more conducive to winning it all, and when it's all said and done, I think Bill will have more tittles than Roy. And one last thought....Roy didn't make KU a basketball power, KU made Roy a great coach.

Do you think recruit Xavier Henry will choose Kansas?

Simple Logic 101: A) X said he's a OAD B) X said he wants to play with his brother So...If A and if B then they stay at Memphis

If they come to KU, CJ has to sit and X will have to stay 2 years. Also, X will not be "The Star" of the team, so he won't shine as bright for the NBA. At Memphis, X will be "The Star" AND he gets to play with his brother, so... Lance come on down !!

Henry brothers close to making decision; father says no visit to Kentucky, but later says visit on tap

The Bottom line : A) X said he wants to play with his brother B) X said he's OAD So, If A and B, Then they stay at Memphis. Simple logic !!

Lance, Come on down !!!!

Jayhawks a favorite to win in 2010

What a year we're going to have. The football team should go bowling again, and with the talent leaving fizzou, should/could win the North. the basketball team could/should be a lock for the final four. All the buzz is exciting.

BUT.... last time I remember such lofty expectations was 1997, when we were the national consensus to "win it all" It was such a letdown when it didn't happen. I truely believe FB and BB will both be at the top this next season, but instead of "expecting" it, let's just stay behind them and enjoy the ride, wherever it leads.

Signs of spring

Duggie, yeah, good article EXCEPT for the first line. I'm driving 150 miles to come watch, and I won't be reading anything into the outcome as I realize along with most, that it is really a more glorified practice than a "game" I come to watch with my son just to watch the "practice game" and get into the spirit of KU football, as I've done the last 20 years. It's not a real game it's just a fun afternoon of watching the teams final practice.

Will you attend KU football's spring game?

I live in Mid-Missouri and will be driving 150 miles to go to the spring game. I have always taken my kids to the spring game and a good time is had by all.

Cmill1221, Watch it buddy...The much improved Royals will be competing for the division title this year, not just my opinion, but that of ESPN as well...so don't be quick to diss the Royals, I plan on watching them tonight after getting back from the spring game !!

KU fans: What you post on Facebook could lead to NCAA rules violations for Jayhawks

A lesson to all who think that free speech is at issue here, you all must be young or not very informed regarding the NCAA.

The NCAA is a private organization whose member schools CHOOSE to be a member of. Many schools, people, organizations have tried to sue the NCAA based on Constitutional grounds and every time the courts have ruled that as a private organization, their rules trump the US Constitution, as is the case with any private organization who has members that CHOOSE to belong.

If a member of a private organization doesn't like the rules of the private organization then they have 2 options:

1- Work with other members to change the rules
2- Withdraw membership of the organization (and possibly create a new competing organization with other disgruntled ex members)

Having said that.... To Xavier and Lance: 2 scholorships just opened up, we have room for BOTH of you now !!! (as if they will see this, not)
