  @Woodrow There’s more ranked teams on UCF’s schedule than there are on Clemson’s.

  I was reading yesterday that Snyder was getting pretty snippy in his old age at his press conference. Told some “Just write whatever the Hell you want” after dodging several questions about why Thompson isn’t the guy going forward. I honesty wonder if he isn’t starting to lose a step mentally.

  Texas Hawk 10 said: @FarmerJayhawk Les Miles is going to be the biggest name on the list and I believe that’s who Long is maneuvering to try and land with some of these hires that he’s made so far. Vollmer has a long standing relationship with Les Miles. Les Miles is also a pretty known name in college football along with his reputation and quirks so hiring someone to specifically run the PR side of KU Athletics seems like another move to try and get Miles. Beyond Les Miles, I don’t see a realistic candidate out there that’s going to immediately blow people away with his resume. Yep. Miles is gonna be the guy Long really targets. Probably sooner rather than later. Guessing Willie Fritz is plan B. Not sure any of the younger G5 up and comers give serious thought to KU, even at $3m+ per year.

Two of those Tall Boys, and I’m out like a light. Of course, the last time I drank those was when I was sitting in the dark after Hurricane Irma last year. My body can’t hold up to doing that more than about once a year, so I really suck as a drinker. Ya well you know how it goes. - -that FIRST brew , ahhhhh that tastes good - iced cold , I’m only drinking ONE though then here comes the 2nd - -the 3rd - and then they are going down like water lmao

  I think the defense proved today that they are without question better than last year, they gave up a good chunk of yards but only let up 26 points. 17 of which were short fields for Baylor’s offense. As I said on the game thread if you only let 26 on the road in this conference, you should have a chance to win unless your offense sucks.

  stoptheflop said: It’s great what the two wins have done for KU football fans. KU is a 7 and a half point underdog at Baylor. We may actually talk about a W in Waco. Starting QB Bender is going to have to throw the ball some to keep Baylor’s defense honest. What’s up with Sims and his drops? I hope Meacham and Beaty are working hard on the medium level passes, 8-12 yds. Baylor and the rest of the BIG 12 will load the box to stop the rush, so Bender’s passing and our receivers’s catching must improve. I’m actually looking forward to the Baylor challenge rather than dreading it like years’ past. I agree with you about actually looking forward to a game on a Saturday instead of dreading another beating. - -How long has it been since I’ve been able to say that? lol - Now in the end run we may get our butt’s stomped - - AGAIN in Big 12 play but I truly feel we might be a little more competitive this year time will tell , but at least it’s cool to actually have a little something positive to say about KU football. Maybe - -just Maybe we can get this thing to start getting turned around.- -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

  Come in @Texas-Hawk-10…do you read me? I seem to have lost radio contact with you regarding the last transmission regarding chain of command from Girod to Long to Beaty and a possible firing of Beaty. Control tower will retransmit… Does Girod have the authority to fire Long, who has the authority to fire Beaty? Or does Long not even have the authority to fire Beaty? What is the actual chain of command? Over.

  @Lulufulu Don’t worry. I was being tongue in cheek to those obsessing on ramping up KU football.

  @Texas-Hawk-10 No doubt crazier things have happened. I am just saying KU’s schedule and personnel do not lend themselves to crazy things happening. 2-10 seems possible and maybe they can steal one or two games and make it 3-9 or even 4-8 but anything over 3 games would be a big surprise and 4 wins almost a shock…a good one though.

  @justanotherfan Agreed. Any one that thinks the KU football program should be eliminated really does not know much about KU or college sports.
• 

  Football’s accounting surplus has not enabled the KU’s minor sports to be very successful. Why?

  @Crimsonorblue22 So you are citing all these anecdotal cases like KU throwers. Are you saying KU minor sports are being mischaracterized when referred to as not as successful as KSU, or OSU, or ISU?

  BShark said: Aggies are trending up while Texas still sucks. FSU was idiotic for letting Jimbo go. Believe me he burned so many bridges. He quit on the team in October after a 2-5 start, stopped recruiting, started getting into arguments with fans etc. That relationship was toxic. Pissed off boosters which we all know will get you the can. Look at what he left on the Offensive Line. KU’s line might actually be a better unit. Until Taggart get’s rid of Jimbo’s players he’s in survival mode
