LOL at a K-State fan bagging on KU's law school when K-State is too poor of a school to have one. Also, Bill James, the creator of sabermetrics and the guy who Moneyball was loosely based on, graduated with an economics degree from KU. It's a very good program.Sorry. Ku's law school is dog crap. It just is. KSU not having one doesn't make ku's better.

That's hilarious coming from a guy who got a law degree from the worst school in the city of Boston. KU's law school is top 100, which isn't bad.

Now back to the topic at hand . . . anybody dig up that Weis contract yet?
The contract for newly named Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis has been finalized, and, like the one drawn up for former KU coach Turner Gill in 2009, it does not include a buyout for early termination.Weis, who has signed on for 5 years, will make $2.5 million per year plus incentives. That’s $12.5 million, guaranteed, whether he coaches one game, one year or all five seasons. The only way Weis would be owed less would be if he were fired for cause.

I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure this is what they announced.You are wrong. If Weis leaves for the NFL, he would actually owe KU money.http://www2.kusports.com/news/2011/dec/14/weis-contract-finalized/

http://www.kansascity.com/2011/12/14/3320363/contract-guarantees-weis-125-million.htmlGuaranteed 5 year, $12.5 contract (unless fired for cause). Will owe KU $2.5 million if he leaves for another job or any other reason by December 31st, 2014.
Nope. Chuck is retiring in two or three years. He all but said so in one of his first interviews. It's why his wife didn't move with him. This is temp and only to get a little more nest egg saved up. Then, it's back to FL for retirement.

Average life expectancy for American men is 75. Snyder is 72.

Death is quickly approaching Old Balls. Bad news for Hayseed Tech fans.
Weis is only 56?!
The day OB dies, Mass street will be flooded with fans rejoicing the day. Sad, really sad.
