Ames, Iowa
Hickory Park. Go and order a half a chicken, and save some room for their awesome desserts. Might be the best restaurant in the Big 12.

College Station, Texas
Not sure why but this was one of my favorite trips for football. You MUST go to Dixie Chicken and drink the night away. Fun place. When you wake up at noon, absorb all that alcohol in your system at FreeBirds burrito.
You could also stay at Dixie Chicken Friday night until about 11:30 and walk over to Kyle Field and watch the midnight rally. Even if you're a fan of the enemy, it's cool to see.
The stadium is a sight. It may not seat as many as Texas or Nebraska, but it's absolutely enormous.

Lubbock, Texas
The 50-Yard Line Steakhouse is a great place for a steak, though it's crowded on the weekends. There's also a bar off Broadway next to the Tech campus called Crickets. It's not a bad option.

Football recruits, look up
Andrew Steinberg is indeed the marketing director, so this idea is right up the alley of him and his staff, 5DecadeHawk. So...Tom is right.
I also like the idea. Those of you who went to the Orange Bowl might have remembered a school doing something similar to this along southbound I-95 in Miami. I want to say it was Rutgers? Anyway, it's a clever idea. It wouldn't sell season tickets but that's not the point. The point is to get the best Texas recruits thinking about KU as an option, and that's worth spending billboard money on for sure.
Nice column Keegan. I think it should seriously be considered.

Frederick, a friend, will be missed by all
Nice article, GB. I can only agree that I was shocked upon hearing the news and then saddened. I ran into Frederick several times over the years, including a particularly tough interview in 2006 when allegations of NCAA violations surfaced. Frederick was a true gentleman in every situation and I never forgot that. Everybody that was lucky enough to know him was crushed by Friday's news, which says a lot about what kind of person he was.

Sawin' Wood: A bobblehead gone wrong
Collodial silver? Awesome, but I've never swigged it in my life. I think it's just a weird tint on the photo.And chuck, any youth-laden team who trades for Matt Morris, then releases him six months later and eats $10 million is staring at the Royals' rear in this race.

Sawin' Wood: NFL Draft running blog...
Have not Greene. I imagined he'd have a shot at a free-agent deal, but if you think Aqib Talib has character concers.....holy moly.
