Those who know KU football coach Mark Mangino know he’s not one to devote a whole lot of time to things other than football.
At his weekly press conference this week, however, he spent five minutes talking about how important it was for his student-athletes to vote. You can see that video on the left of this page.
He said he’d encouraged his students to visit their polling places – or vote absentee if they’re from out of state – and exercise their constitutional right.
He did say, however, that he wouldn’t be encouraging his out-of-state players to be going to vote.
There’s a game to prepare for.
