More on tickets

From now until Feb. 14, fans who purchase season tickets online will get a priority points bonus.

For every season-ticket purchase, fans will receive 10 points for their Williams Fund account, instead of the usual five. There’s no limit on the number of points that can be earned.

Public season tickets for eight games are $275. There’s also the Family Zone packages, which include two adult and two student tickets in the north bowl, for $350. Faculty-staff ($220) and recent graduates ($200) also have reduced rates.

Season tickets offer a significant discount considering the spike in price for “premium” games on the 2007 schedule. Single-game tickets for the Nebraska contest are $75, while Iowa State and Baylor tickets are $45. The four nonconference games – Central Michigan, Southeast Louisiana, Toledo and Florida International – are $35 apiece.

The Missouri game, which has been moved to Arrowhead, will have ticket prices ranging from $35 to $65.

Wrapping up

Signing day is less than a week away, and KU is about done with its incoming class.

The Jayhawks currently are awaiting word on two known players – William Cole, a

cornerback/receiver out of Cedar Hill, Texas; and Trey Baysinger, an offensive lineman out of Carter High in Dallas.

Cole, an electric talent that led Cedar Hill to a state title, is believed to be considering Kansas, Arkansas and Oklahoma State. Baysinger, who told Rivals.com this week that Kansas is his leader, still is weighing KU, Iowa State, Baylor and Tulsa.

Former Jayhawk retires

Former KU linebacker and assistant coach Mike Sweatman retired from coaching earlier this week.

Sweatman was most recently the special teams coordinator for the New York Giants. He played at KU from 1965-67, and coached at KU from 1978-82.
