I suppose they have to hope that Lance falls on his sword and recruits HS kids and tries to develop them even though it will likely get him fired.

I am all for rushing the field court, did you see how happy those kids were? That's what college sports is all about  :love:

Yeah it makes complete and total sense for them to rush the field. Any win this season should be followed by a field rushing.

We rushed the field and tore down goal posts at the start of the HCBS era. I mean only once his first year, but still.

This isn't even remotely true

The last time I remember was Nebraska in 2000 but there were many in the 90's

I think he means we only did it once in his first year, 1989, because of course that season we only won one game.

KU football is going through a rough patch

Yeah. It’s when they put in the insured goalposts that the maker said were indestructible.    We actually got one of those down, first time ever.  People made fun saying we didn’t know how to tear down a goalpost, but the manufacturer had to replace for free. If you looked close there was a 2 inch thick steel plate support angle right at the connection with the cross bar.

I was hanging from the cross bar on that one for a brief time. People were pulling on my legs though and I was about half a second from showing most of the student body everything I was working with so I decided letting go was a good idea.

So I ventured over to Phogistan to get some hot takes.

It appears the fan experience at KU Memorial Stadium is still a total dumpster fire.

when i saw them rush the field, i was reminded they still have chain link fence around their field.  i remember how bad we wanted the limestone field wall but the old railing was 1,000 x's more aesthetically  pleasing than what they have.  probably should have just gave them that.

Coastal Carolina is a 27-point favorite according to Circa Sports despite our fighting Jayhawks winning their last game.

They just can't get any respect.  :shakesfist:

I grew up with hand me downs.  It kind of made me feel important getting my big brother's stuff.

New thought- since ku only apparently plays football on fridays now, we should let them play at bsfs for free. There would already always be a bunch of football fans in town looking for a free-$10 thing to do Friday before a cats game. The stadium would probably attract just as many fans but it would be nicer and maybe ku could make more money off parking and nicer suites/amenities.  :dunno:

I think this is a decent idea, but a few thousand fans may actually be attending high school football on fridays.  Now “just back high school up to Thursday” which would be fine, except that is middle school night.  “Just back that up to wednesday” but then you get the “that’s church night” crowd and here we are with Tuesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday/Monday football weeks?

Wait a second, we may have something here.

maybe we add more days to the week?  take it from 7 to 9?  4 day weekend, companies can keep their 5 day work week?

Let the high school play at BSFS. Manhattan High can accommodate KU.

It's also a ridiculous idea because there are no KU fans in Western Kansas (aka West of Club Orleans).

Breakers has moved into the Club Orleans location.  It's your one stop shop for when you want to play pool but also do that in a place with a slightly dirty vibe.
