Quick!  Get these inspirational DVD's pressed and to the ku bookstore, there's suckers out there with money in their wallets!

LMAO at the cracked facade of Memorial Stadium at the opening.  They could have gotten a better impression if they opened with footage of the Lawrence sewage plant.

Jtksu is correct that there many, many schools that do the "We Are..." thing, but he's wrong on his second point, it was shameful to attempt to adopt that.  Huge black eye on KSU.

Toben Opurum is so good at running back that he plays linebacker.

:users:

I was reserving judgment on Gill until now. This move is so stupid that it makes my eyes pop out of my butt. Opurum was someone who could actually keep KU in games last year when Mangino pulled his head out of his ass and used him instead of Jake "I get knocked down by 15 mph winds" Sharp. KU is absolutely woefully thin at LB, but why not move Angus Quigley back to the position? He at least has experience there, even though he was marginal at it. Opurum could have been their relative equivalent to Daniel Thomas--a ball-control, bruising RB who could keep KU's bad defense off of the field and get a few touchdowns along the way. There's no guarantee that Quigley will be nearly as effective.

There's a big meltdown on the KU rebel bbs about it right now...I don't blame them. If Synds moved Daniel Thomas to LB, I'd crap a brick the size of a small apartment complex.

edit: I get that a power back might be a departure from Gill's planned strategies, whatever they are, but when you've been whisked into a fairly cacophonous situation like KU's roster, you go with the best talent that you've got in your first year and get "your" backups some carries so they can at least have experience for future years. .

Opurum was given an opportunity to earn his starting spot back, but he got beat out by a few of the other backs.  I'll trust Reggie Mitchell's evaluation of running backs over Louis Matsakis and some of the other clowns that were coaching for Mangino.  Just because Opurum was one of our only options at running back last season doesn't mean he's guaranteed anything this year.  He got beat out fair and square by players who performed better in practice and in scrimmages.

You guys are basing everything off of last season's results, which is comical to say the least.  KU quit on Mangino last season, and it showed.  I have no idea why K-State fans think they know everything about KU's personnel, but KU is deep at quite a few positions.  For all of Mangino's flaws, he did bring in some quality talent over the past few seasons.  Guys like Kevin Young, Prinz Kande, Lubbock Smith, Tim Biere, Bradley McDougald, etc, etc. are finally going to have their opportunity to step up.  I would just be cautious about writing anyone off next year, especially since people wrote off K-State last season, and look how close you guys came to winning the North.

Gill's staff is better than Mangino's, and it's really not that close.  Mangino would have killed to have recruiters like Reggie Mitchell and Darrell Wyatt on his staff.  Also, there's no comparison between Clint Bowen and Karl Torbush, especially when it comes to having experience as a defensive coordinator.  Chuck Long is a hell of a coach as well.

Let's have your prediction of how this loaded ku team with amazing coaching is going to do. 

PS.  I predict they will finish behind KSU.


You're obviously basing this prediction on last year, which is completely irrationale.

Those 'clowns' got you to an Orange Bowl. Is Gill's staff better?

No.  Beams understands that the Orange bowl season was a complete fluke.



Gill's staff is better than Mangino's, and it's really not that close.  Mangino would have killed to have recruiters like Reggie Mitchell and Darrell Wyatt on his staff.  Also, there's no comparison between Clint Bowen and Karl Torbush, especially when it comes to having experience as a defensive coordinator.  Chuck Long is a hell of a coach as well.  

Mangino and Bill Young >>>>>>>Any of KU's current coaches and [spoiler]it's not even close[/spoiler]

Mangino was mediocre at best until he finally fired Nick Quartaro and replaced him with Ed Warriner in 2007.  Young's defenses were great at stopping the run, but until Talib came along, his pass defense was crap.  Leave KU football discussion to the people who actually have a clue as to what they're talking about.  TIA.

Torbush was the defensive coordinator for Mack Brown at UNC, and coached guys like Julius Peppers, Dre Bly, Greg Ellis, etc.  His '95, '96, and '97 units led the nation in total defense three years in a row, and were often regarded as the best in the country.  When Mack Brown left for Texas, Torbush took over as head coach for a few years, compiling an overall record of 17-18.  His only losing season as head coach at UNC was in '99, when UNC went 3-8.  Regardless, the guy's got tons of experience, especially at the BCS level.  I'd say he's an upgrade over Clint Bowen.

You guys are basing everything off of last season's results, which is comical to say the least.  KU quit on Mangino last season, and it showed.  I have no idea why K-State fans think they know everything about KU's personnel, but KU is deep at quite a few positions.  For all of Mangino's flaws, he did bring in some quality talent over the past few seasons.  Guys like Kevin Young, Prinz Kande, Lubbock Smith, Tim Biere, Bradley McDougald, etc, etc. are finally going to have their opportunity to step up.  I would just be cautious about writing anyone off next year, especially since people wrote off K-State last season, and look how close you guys came to winning the North.

I was talking to a KU shirt tuck, and he was jizzing over the fact that Gill had the players give the fans a round of applause at the spring game. He said "I don't care if they win another game because they are obviously good people"

OK, but what did you think of the video? Rate it on a scale of 1 - 10.

I took it down once it was disabled.

OT but _33's thing made me think about the person who made (still makes?) the katpak headcover.  Would it be possible to buy just the rights to the stock image of the katpak cover from them? not like the actual covers or the form or anything.  just that one picture.  and, if so, they would sell it to us for basically nothing right?   I mean, we tell them to use the crap out of it forever but if anyone else uses it we sue the crap out of them or something?  they could even just take a new picture and not have to worry about anything.   just spitballing here.

Sounds like a good summer project.

Someone had to have designed it.  A single person.  Probably a chinese person. It would be nice to see if we could discover who was behind the design.

SD, I would assume, basically No.   The photo would be copyrighted - not the pak-cover.   Anyone would be able to purchase a katpak head-cover & photograph it themselves....   Which if anyone asks, that's what YOU did when this web-site was designed.

It would be a different story if you made your own katpak head cover & started marketing it yourself.   You're using the photo, not the katpak head cover.

I have to find out who won the starting QB spot though, about to watch the 3rd ep..

if you don't like the rap song just play this in the background instead...given the lyrics and state of their program it's more apropos.

It doesn't help for being taken seriously, but being done on ku makes it incredibly awesome for us.  It's especially great watching how they positively spin games that we saw ourselves and know how they actually went.  Coming out of the RP experience makes the Gill things fantastic as well.  I hope he really goes all-out this year on whatever game is closest to 9/11.

Bout to watch Ep 7, I was really dissapointed that they literally showed zero of the Baylor game other than to say 'they came up short' and Gill's postgame talk to an obviously dejected locker room..

Hoping they can turn it around, don't ruin the end for me..
