http://www.kansascity.com/sports/college/big-12/university-of-kansas/article26908306.htmlKansas football coach David Beaty faces numbers crisis in first seasonAmong the penalties: scholarship reductions. According to the sanctions, which came down in 2012, Penn State could only offer 15 football scholarships per year — 10 fewer than the maximum allowed. By the 2014 season, the program would be limited to just 65 total scholarships — 20 fewer than the NCAA maximum of 85 for football.The NCAA would ultimately lessen the punishment, but in the short term, the Nittany Lions felt the pain. In 2013, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, they began the season with just 66 scholarship players — an unheard of number at the Division I level.“This really is (like) a six-year sanction,” said then Penn State coach Bill O’Brien, when discussing the scholarship reductions.Two years later, another college football program is approaching the fall with fewer than 66 scholarship players. This program is not under any NCAA sanctions. This program has not run afoul of the NCAA rule book — at least not in the last decade.This program is Kansas, and it counts 64 scholarship players on the roster this summer, a stunningly low number for those who follow college football.

But what about #dreamteam2013 ?!?!It's probably because your typical juco recruit only gets to play 2 seasons.
KU is right on par with Notre Dame ... when it comes to adding additional conference revenue
Beer pro tip: never drink anything other than BL, coors, pbr, maybe a few others that I'm forgetting
How is it the best decision? Is it because you only have to worry about them being distracted during one sports season?
