Man, I've never seen so many things said about me by so many people. Guess I got upgraded to premium. A bargain at twice the price.

The guy didn't have anything else to do while sitting in JCCC library on a Saturday doing homework, than to try and cause a riff on gE
I was budgetlessly ballin out at ZRH waiting to catch my flight to AMS while riffin' on gE, as a point of fact. And I never did homework on a Saturday whilst at JCCC, much less in the library. Lulz.

Been trying to post for awhile. My friend is a ref who ref's practices of the 3 local teams. Here is his comments he shared with me.

As you know I go to practices at Mizzou, K-State, and KU.

Snyder runs a tight, on schedule ship at K-State. They say they are going to work on on-side kick recovery from 4:12p-4:18p – that is what they do without fail. All day long like that- specific objectives covered. Players and coaches move quickly.

Mizzou is getting better- clearly this new coach knows how to run and plan a practice. They fly around with purpose and are getting better. Coaches coach, players play, everyone is on point.

Now on to KU…….They ask us to be on-site at 3:45, ready to go at 4:00pm. We are ready to go. If we are lucky, they stop putzing around/stretching/throwing deep bombs/jacking aroud about 4:20p. Oh yes, usually at this point Beatty or a couple of his assistants start asking us about what wasn’t called last Saturday- this can be 3 minutes or 20 minutes. Around 4:20-4:30 then they chose to focus on pass routes in the end zone, and inefficiently at that. We do that for 10-20 minutes until Doug Meachem & Kenny Perry almost get into a fistfight over who is supposed to be doing what. HC Beatty told us that #3 Chase Harrell is the next Randy Moss-Jerry Rice……well…..I will let his stats speak for themselves. We then usually kick a variety of field goals and extra points. This process is like surgery at K-State and Mizzou, …..KU…well…..you can guess- struggle to get the right players in the right position. Joe DeForest looks out of his depth at a D-1 program. I’m not sure how Oklahoma State and West Virginia hired him. More about him later. We then typically then run some sort of Team O ….maybe 1’s versus 2’s or some variation of that. This continues the trend of pass routes to Harrell #3, and Sims #11. Sometimes it’s a successful play, sometimes not. Trick plays are smattered in there as well.

Oh and I forgot to mention something…..this staff does not have contact practices. At least not on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays. I find this odd. Do you think the MAC schools go zero contact? Trick question…..they go full contact 2x a week. I would be remiss if I didn’t point out that zero attention is paid to OL & DL players. Read that last sentence again. They just kinda loiter around and drink Gatorade.

Back to practice…..we typically continue to work 7 on 7. QB’s and WR’s running routes if you don’t know what that is. And they will run that for 20-30 minutes. At this point usually someone bitches at the kid running the drone filming practice, and they have on occasion took the controls from him and flown it instead of coaching. I will not name names, but it is highly paid coaches doing this. If I was Dr. Doug Girod and saw this I would fire them on the spot.

Back to “practice” - at this point, usually around 5:15 or so there is a water break, and everyone moves from the practice field to Kivisto Field. Usually music is blasting, and the hangers on show up- various alumni, boosters, etc. This is when HC Beatty and STC DeForest really shine. Kickoff and Kickoff return. An absolute disaster. 10-20 minutes into this session, maybe get a kick off in , maybe not. We all watch this trainwreck for seemingly hours…..this is time no one will ever get back. Assuming they do 3-4 regular kickoffs, 2-3 onside kicks, and 3-4 mock kick returns (remember- no contact- zero)- at this point we go back to 11 on 11 and you guessed it, passing game- deep routes and trick plays. This is typically where Kenny Perry bitches at us for not calling offensive pass interference on #3 Harrell and #11 Sims. His poor D-Backs don’t stand a chance per him. It would be a foul if the QB put the ball anywhere near either player, which is not a certainty. Practice usually ends unceremoniously on a completed pass & we are dismissed. We get our money and hit the road.

Also of note, when Haskell Indian Nation University football went tits up, you would think that would adversely effect some people, right?. Negative, they just walked up the street to KU and were put to work. Various people of various skills, mental aptitude, and physical abilities doing various things. Water, Balls, equipment. You name it, they are doing it. This might be the best thing happening at KU Football right now- putting special needs people to work. I am all for that.

And we only beat this clusterfuck by 10, with a kick return TD. How freaking sad is that?!

Sad enough to think that the Qatz are no longer a dynamic program making progress, but a declining program seeking equilibrium with KU.

A decided home field advantage like the one in Lawrence is said to be worth at least a field goal.. so, like, we kind of won by at least 13.

The good 'ol bait and switch.  Seems like an effective way to nail down recruiting visits.

I wouldn't call it an effective way, but it's probably the best they have to work with.
