Current, former KU football players among three arrested in connection with home invasion

I, too, am confident that when Coach Weis has enough information, he will act appropriately. And I --for one-- am relieved that he is investigating before acting. Although --based upon this and other reports of the same incident-- Mr. Martin's life is suddenly bereft of its once abundant opportunities, there are reasons that we first have the trial, and only then the hanging.

This does sound like the archtypical "home invasion" -- some kids trying to take down a drug house.

KU's Self, others not fans of college basketball transfer rule

I have unconditional love for Coach Self, but he is wrong on this.

College basketball players are not chattel. Once they graduate, they have honored the terms of their indentured servitude and should be able to bargain freely. Not to say they should be free to engage an agent yet continue to play college ball or anything like that. They should be able to talk to other colleges and go where they want and play where and when they want.

KU assistant Joe Dooley hired as head coach at Florida Gulf Coast

We've lost a lot of top notch coaches to Division 1 Head Coaching jobs recently.

This one hurts (meaning the loss of Dooley weakens KU).

But every KU fan wishes him well.

He truly gave us all he had to give.

Self not worried by McLemore’s scoring slump

ESPN thinks Michigan wins on Friday. The New York times gives us less than a 25% chance of making the Final Four. They seem to have us confused with Gonzaga.

What's a Number One seed worth? (Apparently its not worth respect.)

Health care providers oppose Republican resolution to not expand Medicaid

Apparently if you're not livin' it, you can't see it.

Especially if you have a Republican bent.

But better to see it late than never.

Welcome to the Brownback hellscape, heath care providers.

Elijah Johnson is a winner.

Opinion: Bill Self not happy with team's guard play

KU loses the rebound battle 41–45 at home against San José State. There is a frontcourt problem, too.

Jamari, Justin, and Perry totaled 7 rebounds in 27 minutes. Kevin had 8 rebounds in 20 minutes. This was an altogether deficient rebounding game. But the rebounds/minute statistic —measured against a disturbing overall team rebounding deficiency— does explain why Kevin plays the most among the four.
