Who would win in an exhibition, KU's recruiting class or the West squad from the shrine game? The answer is uncertain enough that it's apparent ku should conserve resources (like they did with that crap hire) and just recruit the shrine team (well, the players the other D1 schools don't want).
I'm sure there's lots of other ways ku can save money to fully capitalize on the conference subsidies they get for being in a FBS (as in football) conference.
