Sherron Collins strolled into Self’s office after a hard workout, indicating he’s already shed some weight since weighing in at the Deron Williams Skills Academy in Dallas at 228 pounds.
Former Free State High guard Douglas Compton will be part of ku’s program in some capacity this season. It’s been speculated on the Internet he’ll be a walk-on player. Self said nothing’s been officially decided yet.
“Douglas has come to me and expressed a desire to be a coach and he will be involved in our program in some form or fashion. I really don’t know what the job responsibilities will entail,” said Self, who has known Douglas for several years through friendship with Douglas’ dad, Lawrence businessman AKA BIG-TIME BOOSTER Doug Compton.
“I’m looking forward to having him around like everybody involved in our program — players, managers, office help. We are going to try to figure out a way he can be involved with our program through different duties. I don’t know what they will entail at this time.”

don't even see what the big deal is. a big booster is getting his kid a job/spot (which will probably be a glorified fluffer) with the basketball team. meh. maybe an easier way to funnel money to the current roster, i guess.
Back in the days when schools could have JV teams, ku picked the "rich" kids who couldn't play for a Div. II Juco team for their JV team . . . now they just bring in rich kid walk-ons. Easiest way to funnel money into the scholarship guys . . . Literally thousands of built in "outs" of the NCAA ever sniffs at it.
Damn it Frank, no more walk-ons with real ability, money first, money first!!
I just remember doing a google search on one their previous walk-ons, and Dax told himself that dollars to donuts it's going to turn up that kid comes from a family with money. Sure enough, he was from out in Western Kansas someplace, and there was a website solely dedicated to the kids dad and his penchant for very expensive, rare American Muscle cars . . . like original Plymouth Superbirds which have been auctioned off for up to $800K.

Can you name two or three of those "rich kid" JV players?
(this could get more fun than the disassociated thread) :woohoo:
Notice how none of the stuff 'Pad bitches about is actually against NCAA rules.

No dumbass he said you are bitching about legal activities. reading comprehension buddy
It's always rich when a guy who still doesn't know the difference between "to" and "too" is knocking on someone else's education.
sad . . . really.
Shameless
Pride cometh before the fall

K-State could have easily said no that to that piece in Snyder's contract.
Also, please tell us where the clear conduit to impropriety lies in the Sean Snyder deal, as opposed to a major athletic boosters kid (who couldn't even start for his HS team) being given a walk-on position at ku??

Bitter . . . because I point out all the little ku fanboys that now litter Johnson County??
Fascinating logic . . .
But it's good that I can continuously . . . :jayhook: :jayhook:
All of which is. . . kind of sad really.
"When do you get too old to act and post like a kid?"
Obviously, 50 isn't the answer.
Seff and Compton are investors in a small Lawrence bank together, along with another group of guys who no doubt provide extra "aid and comfort" to the ku basketball team.
Congrats ku . . . you've got your own version of Sam Gilbert on steroids.

That isn't a link StalkerFreakBoy???. . . and once again, Google doesn't have/own links, unless of course it's to their own websites that are hosted on their severs, Google finds links/websites. Just so you know, that link/website is hosted on servers in Ohio owned by Time Warner Cable-Road Runner, Google merely found it, they don't own the servers, nor the domain, nor the bandwidth that is allowing that webpage to be found on the World Wide Web by Google . . . the "search engine". Ask.com, Yahoo and several others ALSO "found" that link.
You've probably heard how the winged cars were banned in DC and Maryland for not having front bumpers. At this time, Dr. Jackson had a specialty body shop fabricate up some front bumpers modified from a 1963 Corvette. In 1973, the car went to Nichels Engineering in Indiana for some mechanical work. The engine was blueprinted, reassembled and dynoed at 450 horsepower. In 1979, the car was sold to Jerry Jueneman in Hays, Kansas. It was cosmetically restored and showed up at the Wing Car National meet in Michigan that year. The car is still owned by Jueneman and is reported to be currently on the market.
Plus, I know it's hard for your extremely small brain to understand but the chances of Google finding a website that may not exist anymore and you don't know the url and other site specifics (it was actually information Jerry Jueneman was originally searched about a year ago or more) is about . . . none.
How many times do I have to go through ALL of this before you diminished mental capacity actually grasps it??
All of which is . . . kind of sad really.

just as cute as a nearly 50 yr old dude acting and playing with college aged guys. What's up with that Pad?
Well if given a choice between here, and gurgling Tom Light's scrotum, I'll chose here.

College Kids?? Doc . . . it's going to be news to quite few of the regulars on this board that they're still in college. Someone is jealous.
Folks . . . it was bound to happen, the Stalksmith was going to go into full blown Stalk mode anyday, and I guess last Friday was that day.
Great weekend though . . . the beach, fresh grilled fish, meanwhile it appears Doc spent the whole weekend plotting responses for this thread.
All of which is . . . Kind of sad really.
Doc . . . you gonna let us know how old you are, or are you going to continue to play the role of mysterious Internet guy from your mom's basement??
lol its a college town bigjohn. same things happen in manhattan not neccessarily shootings but underage drinking.
Sad news there Trim . . . seems like there's a a shooting in Lawrence about every weekend these days.
