The KU Rayhawks are NOT going through a rough patch. They make Raytown, Missouri proud!

[The Big Train]

it's an interesting recruiting strategy, trying to get local high school coaches to force players to go to KU

i think the coaches are all for it, helps their stock if they send a bunch of kids to a power d1* school

[Dugout DickStone]

GW is scouting high school babes for Beaty to meet

[Jabeez]

Yeah the gw hiring in that capacity was weird because hs coaches don't care for him.  He's very arrogant and aloof.

can confirm. During 7 on 7 games (in summer) that coaches are not allowed to be at, much less coaching, Weir was on the sideline full-on directing plays. Our coach - who I think is actually better - didn't respect him.

Coaches hate other teams coaches that win, if your coach is better why wasn't your team as good??

That was his first season as a hc. But your point stands. A winning record is the ultimate comparison. Regardless, Weir had no problem blatantly breaking that rule in front of officials, parents, and players from multiple teams. It makes me wonder what other rulebreaking mean Jean was also just fine with.

Mostly heard things like known to trade shitty video, show up to camps that his team wasn't participating in.  Not very chummy.  Everyone I've talked to respects the hell out of his ability to coach

I mean he's a total dick, I can confirm that. but he did once set up an ice bath for after I was injured, so that was nice. or creepy.

Did you play with the guy who was just hired at Olathe East?  I grew up with him

Nope.  He started as a coach when i was there, i believe.

[Missouriscribe]

He's kind of a neat story. He was a rough dude in elementary and middle school, but football really channeled his energies into something positive.

This KU fetish over high school coaches is odd, though. After Grunny, they double down with both the HC and GW.

Worst staff ever assembled?

Did we talk about the fact that KU tore up all their turf except for the new Harley Track part?

love mctaits use of an unnamed source to unveil the turfs expected lifespan. must have met deep throat at 2am at rock chak park for that nugget.

[meow meow]

is this phase 2 or 3 of the Make Memorial Stadium Less Ugly Yet Still an Uncomfortable Place to Watch a Football Game Master Plan?

[Trogdor]

Hey, something is better than nothing. Its not near what we are getting, but over there, theyre lossing their rough ridin minds

[Dugout DickStone]

Every time I see the KU football field without the track it stuns me for a second.  Then, I get very sad and start a shame spiral of self loathing.

[slobber]

The 4* running back decided he couldn't stand Lawrence anymore and transferred to washburn

D1ish?


Gonna win 'em all!

[The Big Train]

i think its a good idea they are matching the turf.  i mean you have to stare at it all game long so its kind of a necessity.  you only have to wade through piss and crap like 2 times a game for a total of 4 min.  i think its a very nice and appropriate upgrade.

[Mixed-Nutz]

KU has the worst Recruiting class I have ever seen in a p5 school. I think it would be a bad class at a school like Tulsa. It has bunch of small, unathletic high school over achieving players.

They better make sure the players wipe their feet before they come out on the field.

Iowa State's is pretty terrible too, but ku's is historically awful.

I know why they hired Beatty, but Christ, it's going to take at least another 5 years to get to respectable. Three before they fire him, and two to get a couple of classes in after they hopefully hire a respectable coach.
