- Brady Morningstar’s name resonates
- March 2, 2011
- The only visible signs of his playing days are the letters of his name on the record board and an 8x11 photo plaque celebrating his all-state season of 2004-05 that hangs outside the gym.
- Seniors on the Free State boys basketball team enjoying turnaround
- February 24, 2011
- There’s just something about a son or daughter’s high school years that makes parents go wild. They take pictures before prom, chronicle accomplishments in scrapbooks and brag non-stop to their friends. That’s what made the 2008-09 Free State High boys basketball season so tough for so many parents and, in turn, what makes this year so special for those same people.
- KU softball’s Hull twins celebrate differences
- February 10, 2011
- For the better part of the first two decades of their lives, Kansas University softball sophomores Maggie and Rosie Hull were known simply as the Hull twins.
- Allen Fieldhouse helps Turner Gill recruit for KU football, too
- February 7, 2011
- “There’s no better place to coach, there’s no better place to go to school, there’s no better place to play.” Those words about Allen Fieldhouse, uttered by former Kansas University basketball coach Larry Brown, have given goosebumps to thousands of Jayhawk fans. Aside from providing one of the biggest home-court advantages in the country, KU’s gym plays another role that, at times, flies under the radar.
- About that name … it’s ZENG-er
- January 4, 2011
- Jayhawk fans worried about nailing down the pronunciation of new Kansas University athletic director Sheahon Zenger’s first name need look no farther than Tom Cross for help.
- Wide-receivers coach Wyatt crucial to KU

- Season in review: Reporter Matt Tait hands out his KU football postseason awards
- December 5, 2010
- Those who preceded me in this position often penned a few paragraphs to put the finishing touches on the football seasons that were. After a two-year hiatus, it’s time to bring that back. There’s no flashy name for the following awards, nor does there need to be since very little about this year’s Kansas University football team had much flash.
- Contract favors Turner Gill
- October 21, 2010
- Antsy fans of Kansas University football already dreaming of a coaching change won’t like the reality of Turner Gill’s contract. It’s as one-sided in Gill’s favor as the recent outcomes have been for KU’s opponents.
- With UT, there is no deadline
- June 8, 2010
- Texas remains king of the Big 12 and any attempt by any other school to force the conference’s hand won’t work. Commissioner Dan Beebe made that clear by setting deadlines for Nebraska and Missouri to declare their intentions. Notice that Beebe didn’t put any such pressure on Texas.

- December 17, 2009

- December 10, 2009
- They bounce around from college town to college town, pregame meal to pregame meal, all in the name of talent.
- Coaching your son not easy
- October 14, 2009
- Whoever coined the phrase, “Hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports,” probably never coached his son.
