@Crimsonorblue22 I remember coaching kids in a program called CAA. - - different ages 4th , 5th , and 6th -graders. - -coached both football and basketball. - -Got so much enjoyment out of that , the experiences, different happenings crazy. - -I remember had this one boy, he was something else, ha had to always keep track of the little guy for sure - -if he wasn’t playing at the time it was the football you could almost always find him behind the bench playing in the dirt lmao, Come to realize he must have been figuring out - -THE NEXT PLAY lol, or it was classic to be in a time out talking about certain plays to run, and then have a boy speak up so proudly about a play he had made maybe from a quarter before lmao, kinda like ummm HUH lol.
Then of course I had some years had some really good teams, had a team where we hadn’t been scored on all year, and it was like the next to last game of the year and we were just whooping the dog out of this team felt so bad, they were let’say umm not quite as good, and we were up I think like 62-0 - -and some of the parents of the other team were upset- -thought I was running up the score, thought I should be suspended, because of it - -BUT hey what could I do - -Hell I swapped my QB and my starting running backs for 3 of my offensive linemen and BAM the 1st time one of my offensive line touched the ball 80 yds and a TD, BUT you know what? - -I wouldn’t trade those times for anything in the world - -special times. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Liberal arts degree requirements. It’s more difficult than you might think to get one course from 15 different departments. That means you will definitely have to take a few courses you wouldn’t have chosen for yourself. It’s a pretty broad degree.

@drgnslayr said:
Absolutely. Better… get a degree in something you are interested in, regardless of the associated professions around it.
I disagree with this one. If you’re going to get a degree in something you’re interested in, I would highly recommend either double majoring or getting a minor in a useful career field.
This next part addresses another question further up about the difference between a BGS and a BA degree at KU. A BA degree within CLAS mean you took 4 semesters of a foreign language while a BGS required a minor in place of the foreign language requirements. When I graduated in 2010, I got a BGS in History with a minor in Geography. History was what I was interested in, but a history degree by itself isn’t the most praticla degree unless you’re going to grad school which I had no intentions of at the time. I hedged that by getting a minor in Geography with an emphasis in GIS so I could use that to try and get into the oil and gas industry since I planned on moving back to Houston after I graduated and that is one of the biggest job fields here.
-
Good idea to hedge.
-
There is a certain kind of intelligence in just knowing who you are and what you care about. It’s hard to measure, yet might be the most important kind.

@bskeet Self awareness worked for us too. It put food on the table our entire life & no one ever missed a meal. BTW skeet, I remembered you guys in church again today… Keep that faith strong.
-
@Blown Add abt 7 years & the crawdad will become a teen age girl… Till then, those guys are all yours…NOW go out there & git em’ ! After 12 all bets are off !
-
@globaljaybird ha ha! Had to go back and read blowns post.

My wife unfortunately has an English degree KU and unless you wanna teach English, it is completely useless. I went to trade school which is okay in some fields but for me it’s working my tail off just to survive. I always joke I’m the poorest fella on here. Lol.
-
@kjayhawks If she does teach English, I commend her. Language arts is the most needed skill in almost everything students will undertake, and unfortunately there are fewer and fewer dedicated English teachers passing on their mastery each year as kids see it as unimportant and play video games instead of reading.
-
@kjayhawks does your wife want to teach? Wouldn’t take much more to get certified or sub teach. Don’t sell yourself short! plenty of people w/more money and a lot less blessed!
-
@kjayhawks lOL oh my friend I would have to give you a stiff challenge about being the poorest on here. Here I am 63 yrs old on Social Security disability and barely make 1,000 a month lol, so think maybe just a little less then what you have - not sure, but would be willing to take a shot, I know what you mean about trying to survive lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 I consider myself rich, but I don’t have much money. My kids are pure gold (to me).
I always found it amazing when I’ve gone to Jamaica how happpy most of the people are inspite of making on average $2500 per year. Then again they live in paradise…, but instead of focusing on the negative they completely enjoy what they have.
I try to take that approach to KU basketball, but losses still suck!
-
Jamaica in 2 weeks, woohoo!

@jayballer54 Frank’s bidnezz is the scoring bidnezz. He’s got a Masters in it. Just give him the ball, and watch the magic.
