Kansas will honor University of Missouri coaching legend Norm Stewart before Monday’s game against Texas.
KU will recognize Stewart for his 30-plus years of coaching in the Big Eight/Big 12 and recognize his work with Coaches V. Cancer.
The Jayhawks were not able to recognize Stewart during the 1998-99 season, Stewart’s final year at Mizzou. The coach resigned after the season had ended.
KU, you might recall, presented former Kansas State coach Jack Hartman with a golf bag in ceremonies before the KU-KSU game during the 1985-86 season, Hartman’s final year in Manhattan.
Also Monday, ex-Jayhawk coach Ted Owens will be on hand for Jo Jo White’s jersey retirement ceremony, to take place at halftime.
