Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

Ward in portal too
Why is Ward leaving? Was he promised / expecting significantly more usage than he got this year?

I'm guessing this means Johnson will start the bowl game.

Looking forward to watching him zip lasers to Jayce Brown.

Bummer about Ward. Seemed to pair nicely with AJ. Also a nice 1-2 punch w Giddens.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Seems like he got less touches as the season went on.

I liked ward as our #2 back but as long as giddens is here we are good.

CK is very good at making almost any back look good, remember harry trotter? He averaged almost 4 YPC as our #2/3 when he was here...and I assume in year 6 CK will have a better #2 than him by the time fall rolls around.

I always thought of transferring as a right that players should have. Turns out, it's also been a fun process to watch as a fan. I'm totally into all of this news and curious about how things will shake out.

Last year it seemed like we only lost 5-7 players. Gonna be more this year it appears.

I think that's it on the offense side. Probably will see a few more from defense now.

He wants more carries.

There were times this season where he was more effective than Giddens and still was getting significantly fewer carries.  I don't blame him.

I don't watch receivers unless they catch the ball but Brown seems a lot like Garcia except younger and better. Would like Garcia to stay though.

Also not mad one bit about Howard transferring, but will still not enjoy seeing him in a different uni.
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

Ward's a 1000-yard rusher here or anywhere else he gets the carries. Hate to see him go, but it's hard to keep two feature backs in the stable, especially when their the same age. Maybe it will free up more time for Jackson, whose has the speed to give us a different look.

Garcia would be sad and a surprise. I’m more excited than sad about Howard. From what I’ve seen in social media, most Cats fans feel the same way.

I predicted RJ if it becomes true.  I expected him to have a much bigger role this year, and he barely improved from 2022 season.

If we would have had Ward get a majority of the carries for Farmaggedon this year we would have won the game.
