The Big 12 Conference on Monday afternoon announced its league schedule for women's basketball games, including the 18 contests that await Kansas this winter. As was announced in June, over the course of that schedule the Jayhawks face Kansas State, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech both home and away; host BYU, Cincinnati, Colorado, Houston, Utah and West Virginia; and travel to face Arizona, Arizona State, ...
When Lance Leipold was a graduate assistant at Wisconsin in 1993, the Badgers faced Michigan State in Tokyo in the Coca-Coca Classic; when Leipold was head coach at Buffalo in 2019, the Bulls took on Charlotte in the Bahamas Bowl. “Guys on that team talk about those experiences for the rest of their lives,” Leipold said on Monday.
