- Woodling: LHS, KU titles similar
- April 22, 2008
- They weren’t feted with a parade up and down Massachusetts Street. Tania Jackson didn’t make the cover of Sports Illustrated. Lawrence High girls state basketball championship paraphernalia isn’t flying off merchants’ shelves.
- Woodling: Hoops dream remains
- April 15, 2008
- Has it really been a week? How many of you woke up last Tuesday morning with a start, wondering if it had all been a dream?
- Woodling: James’ full story untold
- April 1, 2008

- Woodling: Roy still popular topic
- March 25, 2008
- I know many of you are still resentful about Roy Williams’ decision to leave Kansas University men’s basketball for his beloved Carolina in the pines and his perceived destiny along Tobacco Road. But that was nearly five years ago.
- Woodling: Lions define balance
- March 10, 2008
- Something was wrong. Surely what I saw in front of me couldn’t have been true. A couple of months ago, I was reading an e-mail that contained Sunflower League girls basketball statistics, and not a single Lawrence High player was listed among the league’s top scorers.
- Woodling: Green simply the best
- March 7, 2008
- Darren Green held out his cell phone so I could read the words. Earlier in the day, Green had sent a text message to his son Dorian, and he was gracious enough to allow me to read it as he stood outside the Lawrence High locker room in White Auditorium. “Play hard,” the message read. “Leave no doubt who the best guard is.”

- Woodling: Jayhawks’ different shades

- Miracles no slouches
- Supporting cast full of good players
- February 16, 2008
- Two NCAA men’s basketball championships. One common denominator. Both of Kansas University’s national-title teams were regarded as one-man shows — uncannily similar tours de force by Clyde Lovellette in 1952 and Danny Manning in 1988.
- Woodling: Ballplayer remains mystery
- February 13, 2008
- Somehow Bob Edmondson fell through the cracks. For decades, Ralph Houk has been listed as the first Lawrence High product to play baseball in the major leagues. Not true.
- Woodling: Knight’s Lubbock exile ends
- February 6, 2008
- Napoleon Bonaparte had it better than Bob Knight. After being deposed by the French government, Napoleon spent less than a year in exile on the remote island of Elba. Knight spent seven long years in exile on the vast Llano Estacado of west Texas after being deposed by Myles Brand, then the president of Indiana University, because of a “pattern of unacceptable behavior.”
- Woodling: Buffs brought A-game
- February 3, 2008
