What bothers me about all of this is the lack of commitment to it by the A.D. at KU.

Currie would have done the K-State0 thing when it put up the season record and printed off limited edition t-shirts and sold 'em on the A.D.'s website within 24 hours. Zulu needs some serious seasoning if he wants to be a big time A.D. like J.C.

Another KU mistake, down the memory hole:

"It is a snapshot of the page as it appeared on Jul 12, 2013 17:23:59 GMT." It's gone now. I guess they could no longer withstand the embarrassment of their failure in the wake of our stunning, massive, elite, $75 million WSC.

So did KU athletics get hacked or something?

LOL, please roll with this talking point.

It's like fat Joe Davis is the Pinocchio to your Geppetto, steve dave. That is EXACTLY the talking point he rolled with in a twitter discussion with The Manhatter last week!

A cassidy tweet re depth had me curious, went to rivals to look at the depth chart and apparently Ku has gone 3-4

The Prince similarities are striking.

That aside, they have a pre-camp depth chart littered with guys starting who have never practiced

Goodness gracious, its an endless amateur hour over there in lawrentucky

pissclams · « **Reply #129 on:** August 07, 2013, 08:25:48 PM »

well FSD the old saying is that you have to start somewhere

unfortunately for KU they are starting at the absolute bottom of the Division 1 barrel

pissclams · « **Reply #130 on:** August 07, 2013, 08:27:57 PM »

actually probably starting somewhere near the middle of the FCS barrel (forgot about the NDSU loss- sorry KU bros)

That thread is a little creepy, nostalgic in a depressing way and delusional regarding the present. KU fball in a nutshell

From the stuff I've read it seems like KU has pretty much named all of it's starters. I was reading they have two brand new juco kids already penciled in as the starting guards. They moved another kid from tackle to center and named him the starter the next day.

One of Phil Steele's big metrics is the number of returning starts in the O-line. He says a team is potentially in trouble when they have less then 40 combined starts returning in the offensive line. I believe I read that KU has a total of 8 returning starts.

How many of those guys do you think were arrested at some point while playing there? I am betting a lot.

Tradition and all.

I sort of wanted to tear up after the initial post. I truly felt bad for that 'Hawker.

Then I scrolled down a bit and another posted an excerpt from the "Charge of the Light Brigade." I had to stop reading at that point so I wouldn't slit my wrists.
