No worries. I'm sure the next person they hire will also be a "homerun"

Harry just watched that one sail into the upper deck.

Well. Done.

Honestly, now that I think about it, I'm glad "Bubba" isn't KU's next AD. Definitely don't need the

element of KU's fanbase getting too riled up.

I almost fully expect to hear Selby has a horrible case of Mono and out for the year or even worse, completely overrated.

great idea! We know any skanks with mono?

are you happy with this BMW? i've seen some who are pretty "meh" about it, wanting someone from a bigger school.

From what I've gathered, this is a homerun hire for KU. The only possible drawback is that Notre Dame goes after him once their current AD retires.

Other possible drawback, Bubba thinks Lawrence is a cachole. To be fair, he's used to the big-time lifestyle afforded to him in Tulsa.

Tulsa is a LOT better than Lawrence.

Tulsa has a commercial airport.

For those that don't want to read all that crap. In summary, Tulsa Oklahoma is better than Lawrence Kansas.

Fescoe was slated to come on 610am this morning and blast Bernadette for what he is alledging to be her fault in pulling a switcharoo on the contract terms at the last minute.

Anyone catch it? Please report!

A poster on the KU rebel site is saying that a major donor told him that BGL swooped in at the last second and changed the contract terms like Fescoe was reporting. Apparently one of the stipulations regarded who he could and couldn't associate with. It didn't get any more specific than that, but I assume that Lew, Mangino, and anyone involved in the ticket scandal is probably on the "do not talk to" list.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #117 on:** December 17, 2010, 10:35:02 AM »

It just comes down to this: ku ad is not an attractive job right now. Not being allowed to talk to Lew Perkins is the deal breaker? GTFO.

steve dave · « **Reply #118 on:** December 17, 2010, 10:37:34 AM »

Does Camden, NJ have a university? Maybe KU can try to get their AD to come to Lawrence.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #119 on:** December 17, 2010, 10:46:39 AM »

The way they are turning on Biscuits & Gravy is UGLY. I hope this story doesn't get any national attention, the whole Turner Gill treatment already has the stated painted as majorly racist.

Does Bill have any other friendlies that will work for nothing while being told who they can have conversations with?

MadCat · « **Reply #121 on:** December 17, 2010, 10:55:09 AM »

BGL can patch this whole situation up by hiring Christopher Cosh.

Rumblings that Self is pushing for Roger Morningstar and/or the developer who is in jail (when he gets paroled).

Would be more efficient if they just hired the less Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) looking Pump bro.
