@crimsonblu22 I guess we're the only ones!
-
I think hot streak for the basketball team temporarily cancels interest in football.
-
There’s just not a lot going on. Winter conditioning doesn’t give us a lot to talk about lol
-
@FarmerJayhawk guess if nothing else can always talk about the progression of the East side renovation
-
@ROCKCHALK2025 Got any news?
-
@JoJoAndMe Not really, just know you go to the Phog under Gridiron talk and go to page 14 and scroll and it has the live camera's you can see the progress
-
@ROCKCHALK2025 They sure are taking their time on the East stands. Must be saving $$$ by not paying a lot of overtime.
-
@JoJoAndMe I dunno for sure but I have read where it will not be ready for the upcoming season but all games will be at Booth stadium

KU already announced they're only expecting the lower section of the stands to be ready for next season and the upper level in 2027.

@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.

@FarmerJayhawk weren't they at Lawerence hi?
-
@crimsonblu22 yep. I went for a bit, it was pretty low key.

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'm excited for KU fb!
