Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

My ku friends argue strenuously that Harbaugh to ku was a done deal, except that Lew screwed it up by insisting that Harbaugh accept the position during the Stanford season, and commit to 5 years.  Damn that Lew!

Different story on radio today.  They said the only sticking point was that Lew wouldn't let him coach Stanford in their bowl game.

I still fail to see what made KU attractive to Harbaugh.

Why is it so hard to believe that the coach of Stanford was close to taking a better-paying job at KU?  No one is claiming he wouldn't have left a year later for the 49ers job.  You guys are awfully sensitive on this subject for some reason.  I sense a little jealousy, as well as denial.

I believe the story.  It just makes me LOL that much harder that the dumbasses at ku Fitz'd it up, and Fitz'd it up so hard that you're stuck with Turner at 2 Million a year on a 5 year contract.

It's a nice "Perkins Screwed Up" story as well . . . so it's a winner on all counts, we could've had Harbaugh so that gives me hope, and then that darn Perkins  :shakesfist: screwed it all up.  Not quite a feel good, but certainly a feel better, and feel betters are good.

Don't rule out the SEC

I know its not a cultural fit but if push comes to shove and we never receive that invitation to the big 10, we might have an outside shot at sliding into the SEC.

Now with OU and UT in the mix and Mizzou already aboard it makes more sense now then ever before and KU/UK on the basketball side would make it the premier basketball conference as well as football.

It solidifies the KC media market with both KU and MU, gives them another flagship AAU school and another blue blood in basketball to compliment UK, I think the SEC would have more interest then we probably expect them too and it never hurts to reach out to them in case the big 10 offer never comes our way.

Its not my ideal choice but I much rather land in the SEC if we don't get the big 10 offer then to get stuck in a non P4 fallback conference with schools from the AAC and MWC because we set back and did nothing after the fact we knew UT and OU was leaving

Just going to go ahead and point out that since this posts was made, K-State has obtained another conference championship, attended 8 bowl games, beaten 10 top 25 opponents, 4 of which were in the top 10,  and won an additional 75 games.

Missouri is a total afterthought in traditional SEC country.

I believe if the SEC tried to add Kansas SEC SEC SEC world would explode in displeasure.

Even thought I can't stand Sankey's pompous ass, there's no way in hell he follows up bringing in two of the winningest football programs in history, with Kansas.   I can assure everyone that SEC basketball only has one rabid fanbase.   For the rest it's simply a sport to pass the time between the end of football and the start of spring football and baseball, and to talk about in between discussing football recruiting.   If an SEC school not named Kentucky has a good basketball team, that's extra whipped cream and sprinkles, nothing more.

Quote from: Dave Wannstedt

“I was at the Fox meetings in Phoenix a week ago, and we were talking. A lot of the Big Ten people were there," Wannstedt said. "The Big 12, we know that Oklahoma and Texas are gone. For any of our listeners, it sounds like Oklahoma State and Kansas State are going to the Pac-12. So that’s done. It sounds like West Virginia is gonna end up in the ACC, which would make sense with Virginia, Pitt, everybody there. And it sounds like Iowa State and Kansas, they’re the two schools that are gonna probably join the Big Ten here locally.


Quote from: Phog
I am interested in this Dave Wannstedt information.. He may be a drunken fool, but he's an honest drunken fool. He may have misspoke- or even misheard- but it's likely that he didn't misspeak or mishear the KU to the big 10 bit. I told you guys back in the Stone Ages of this thread that my sources absolutely confirmed that Goff/Girod had been in contact with the big 10 and that Goff and Girod had been in contact with Network Executives. Bet dollars to doughnuts that Dave Wannstedt is close with the Network Executives at Fox. And Fox is running the playbook for realignment for the big 10 and the PAC. Dave is more the kind of guy (based on my impression of him) that would be privy to this kind of information, and would remember the headline (KU to the big 10), but jumble up the rest (ISU/KSU/OkSt) in his memory because his brain is filled with malted hops and bong resin.. I'm just saying, I wouldn't completely dismiss it..

I've said since the get-go guys, this is about content and viewership. It's about money. We bring in more than we cost. Period.

How can anyone who has seen their football viewership number claim that they bring in more.

Basketball content is literally dimes upon dimes, dozens upon dozens.   Networks can fill basketball content for days upon days, nights upon nights.   They need football content to deliver on Saturdays in the fall, that's why football drives this ship.

There are thousands of Iowa and Nebraska transplants in Kansas City, it's not like there's no one watching BiG football in Kansas City already.   My goodness, at my parents church of decades in OP, it's like the good lord dumped Iowa and Corn fans upon that good Lutheran congregation (anecdotal, but true).
