KU's new basketball dormitory facility

[Dr Rick Daris]

it's like ku is the family living in the trailer trying to save up their money so they can get rid of their 2011 escalade and buy a 2014 escalade. just so, so, bizarre on priorities. someone (texas?) needs to sit them down for a chat.

new better analogy- ku is that guy at the gym that has been doing nothing but upper body for five years and his chest and biceps and all are just huge and ripped but he has teeny tiny itty bitty little bird legs and despite everyone trying to convince him how ridiculous he looks he just thinks their haters and keeps bench pressing.

there is a guy who goes to my gym who is absolutely yoked. I mean hes got veins popping out of every muscle in his body. anyways... hes in a wheelchair. cant move his legs one bit. coincidentally, he is also a KU fan (wears KU shirts to the gym- generally they rip by the end of his workout, tho). I think this guy might be the perfect model for the KU AD. wheelchair = football program.

oh and I forgot to mention were best bros. ill see him and give him the chin nod. very TSC.

University officials, and basketball coach Bill Self, have said the apartments are needed to help the school compete for recruits, and to improve security for the basketball players.

  more like help protect the citizens/girlfriends of Lawrence, amiright!?

University spokesman Tim Caboni said Tuesday the decision to withdraw the bonding authority for the $17.5 million apartment project came after a House committee's "disappointing" decision last week to reject it, The Lawrence Journal-World reported.

You can't fire me, I QUIT!

KU isn't KU without the men's basketball team. If KU doesn't keep up with the Jones's then we lose players. Self is a good coach, but he even knows that you need studs to win.
The project is self-funded, and the legislature needs to focus on more important things.

[Emo EMAW]

KU is like the Nelson Muntz Family from the Simpsons.  They have a car and it's sole purpose it to be shot at.  Two more payments and it's theirs!

Building a $17 million basketball dorm and upgrading the football stadium are not mutually exclusive.

Telling that luxury apartments are a higher priority than ripping the track out of Memorial.  I mean the robot car-parking scheme sounds a lot more fully developed an idea than anything proposed for that post-apocalypse-looking football stadium.

maybe if ku is lucky they can get a lawrence land developer to build them a new one over by their new track facility and second walmart.

i bet they weren't right across the street from each other tho 

[sonofdaxjones]

Love how they're not bringing the story full circle in terms of the likely reason why the finance committee was against the bonds.

True, unfortunately private fund raising and Ku are.

Ts and Ps lil tiny baby bro

[KITNfury]

I don't know about you guys, but I love how EMAW and shox own the state government and shut KU out because of spite.

KU has raised over a billion dollars in private funding since 08.  Unlike K-State, we have multiple alums who can afford to donate millions to renovating the stadium.  Cliff Illig and Cerner are heavily Involved in the process, and renderings will be released after bball season concludes.
