KU is right on par with Notre Dame ... when it comes to adding additional conference revenue

Just spitballin' here, but don't you think the number of Manhattan residents you know is a pretty big factor in your townie status? I think one could argue that it's THE factor of townie status.
Someone could know every Manhattan resident without ever setting foot into town.
what's a more desirable status? townie or non-western kansas native? because you can't be both.

Rick Daris is being a townie as great as it seems?
