@ROCKCHALK2025 They sure are taking their time on the East stands. Must be saving $$$ by not paying a lot of overtime.
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.
