      @Texas-Hawk-10 So does that mean they're going to play home games in Lawrence?

        Yes, KU is playing at Booth next season with a reduced capacity.

          Quick question: did KU have a spring practice or a spring game? I never saw one thing about spring ball.

            @stoptheflop yeah they had the normal amount of spring practices and an open practice in lieu of a game.

              Most teams have moved away from a traditional spring game these days.

                    But is low key what KU's program needs to improve fan support and our image to future players. I can't imagine a great athlete seeking out a low key program. I'm afraid KU is satisfied with a mediocre, low key football program. I don't see any excitement about KU football.

                      @stoptheflop Sad, but I have to agree. In the midst of a stadium rebuild, I don't recall ever being as complacent about the football program as I am these days. Little to get excited about.
                      As I have said many times through the years, fans will support a great team in a shi**y facility when they will not support a poor team playing in a great facility.

                        I think they’re doing fine. Focus is on the field not the other stuff.

                        Stadium renovation is going to bring plenty of excitement. A win in London to start the season will get the people going.

                              I'd love to be excited but with no changes in the defensive coaching or conditioning it is hard to see us having a good enough defense to win more than 4 or 5 games

                                I’m excited. There’s more talent (by a good amount) on defense and Andy being back is awesome. Going to be a very interesting fall camp.

                                  Im excited if other people are excited. Hopefully early success will fuel hopes and dreams

                                    Can KU beat Mizzou in Lawrence on Sept 12? Is anyone going to London for the ASU Sept 19 game that's being called the Union Jack Classic? It seems we are back to the days when David Beaty was so uncertain at the QB position that he refused to announce the starting QB until game time. I remember watching the scoreboard in Memorial Stadium before the first game to see who was starting.

                                      @Jayhawk_69 Those are the key concerns!

                                        @stoptheflop I would guess that KU will be a 7+ point underdog at home. Can't see any reason to go all the way to London for a game. England is not what it used to be. Overwhelmed (as we are) with immigrants. And, it could be a LONG ride home.

                                          England is great but only if you don't base your trip around London. Hastings, Bath, Stratford Upon Avon, Durham(NOT Durham NC), Exeter, and Rye are all wonderful.

                                            I may be in minority here, but I love London, great city with incredible vibe.
