A study of the winning percentages of black quarterbacks at 40 major-conference schools since 1970 found them to cumulatively be 31 points higher than other quarterbacks at the same schools. With the exception of former Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, the most dominant offensive players of the past two decades have arguably all been black quarterbacks: Florida State's Charlie Ward, Virginia Tech's Michael Vick, Texas's Vince Young and Mr. Newton.
You stay classy, Nebraska fans.
We try you puke.
How is that for classy.
Go on back to your "Go Purple Pussies" board child
Coming from a KSUcks fan. You girls get more and more pathetic everyday.

Niles seems to be in a very bad spiral right now. The urinating charge, the public complaints, the multiple drops, and now this. He just seems like a Callahan guy to me - guys used to care more about the name on the back of the jersey than the front of the jersey. My thought is the less guys you have like this on a team, the better off you are.
There is no need for him to go to the media all the damn time. That's what ticks me off. There is no need for yelling expletive's at players, but there is also no need for Niles to go to a reporter and tell him that people were yelling at him and that he "sucked". When you go out of your way and complain about not getting the ball your going to have a large target on your back. Be a man about it and move on.
Hey, why don't you rednecks boo your own players some more?
Why don't you get off the computer and go nail your daughter like you do every other night you knuckle dragger.
The most classless, most dangerous thing I've ever seen was a drunk loser at a KU game in Lawrence chuck his empty whiskey bottle straight up in the crowd, luckily it didnt' knock anyone in the head and landed in the small space between someone's knees and another's back. And that guy was wearing red, not blue.
What the hell does "But I've got to realize I'm not playing for the fans. I'm playing for my coaches and the team. I was more upset I let down my team.” THIS mean? Not playing for the fans? Who do you think fills that stadium every home game? Who do you think travels to all of the games, buys the stupid $39.95 PPV against South Dakota State, and who do you think is ultimately paying for your free ride to college? I'm sorry, but that quote really pissed me off.
I'd bet Niles Paul wasn't the only player to take some crap from a handful of idiot fans but is anyone shocked that he'd be the one blabbing about it to the press?
This latest article will without a doubt have UK fans referencing Arthur's grade change in Dallas. However, as has been documented, Arthur was able to qualify despite what that grade was, Bledsoe would not have qualified without the alleged grade change.
Arthur would have gotten his high school diploma regardless of the math grade change, it only allegedly made him eligible for high school basketball, so he would have earned his degree, but not been eligible to play college basketball.
So yeah, I have no problem with a kid from a very tough background leaning on the only thing that he has ever gotten support for and giving him a little leeway on his academics particularly as long as the NBA won't allow them to come in right away.
My main problem is that there should be some sort of way a kid who is getting say a 2.0, which would be good enough to graduate from high school, but has no intention of ever being in college longer than a couple of years, if that, can get maybe a probationary status, like they can't play the first semester unless they get at least a 2.5 in college.
To say the education system got "compromised" when Arthur received a scholarship is to infer, among other things, that he took an opportunity away from a deserving candidate. Maybe KU would have instead signed a player with a more deserving academic background (if I remember correctly, it was likely the scholarship would have gone unused had Arthur gone elsewhere), but that hypothetical individual would have received an opportunity elsewhere.
But I think it's far from the worst thing in the world (and far from the educational system being "compromised") that a kid like Arthur, who by all accounts didn't receive much early influence to concentrate on academics, left Kansas in good academic standing (IIRC) with a base of credits that he could add to later on in his life.
Just because a student athletic fails out or enters with dubious credentials doesn't mean there aren't other widespread academic issues among the general populous of his college.
And finally, his issue was that it was determined that he shouldn't have been eligible to play in his high school basketball district based on their determined standards. I think additional investigation would have been needed to determine if he wouldn't have been eligible for the NCAA had the grades been what they were supposed to have been.
James McGill in D.C. asks: So, did K-State kicker Anthony Cantele set a record when he missed the PAT on his own TD run? I'm pretty sure nobody's done that.
DU: That has to be some kind of record. I almost named that my worst play of the week, but Brandon Weeden's fumbled snap in the Victory formation beat him out. Though, give Cantele a break, he's a walk-on sophomore who doesn't have a ton of experience. It doesn't sound like his misses over the weekend inspired much confidence, though.
why kansas st wont amount to much
is because they only have 200 plus wins in football history.hows it feel to be in a position that the only thing you bring to the big 12-2 is paying texas to toss you some scraps from its table.you guys beat us five times in like a hundred years of football.by the way snyder showed how scared of texas they are by begging to keep the north intact.snyders new name needs to be mr wrinkles or old fart,because he smells like one
A cool thing about Daniel Thomas you probably didn’t know … Thomas can really cook, and not just in the slang variation of the word. The young man is very comfortable around the kitchen. He’s especially skilled with seafood, like Alaskan salmon and crab cakes, bakes mouth-watering cookies, and is the resident breakfast chef when he’s back home with his family in Florida.
