@AsadZ Looks 👀 like 🌪DM & Yost are playing several guys at multiple positions to enhance trade value. Obviously that’s the case with Merrifield. Still terribly amazing that Dozier isn’t on the roster- He must’ve really 😤 pissed off the wrong person. I’m not sure if DM has a clue how to rebuild this team. Is really hard to watch them lose like this when their path seems so uncertain.

@chriz Thanks for the correction 810 is not an Entercom station. Union Broadcasting is the parent. Still very bias vs anything KU. KK style has always been so patronizing I never listened to him.

I really think what bilas said in his final quote from the interview sincerely calls a spade, a spade …

" The NCAA is basically saying, “Nobody gets to exploit the players until we’re done doing it.” That’s what they are about. It’s great. They treat the kids well and they are all nice people but that’s really what they are saying: “Nobody gets to exploit them until we’re done. Then you can have them. We get to exploit them first, nobody else, then when we’re done with em you can have whatever you want.”

@Kcmatt7 Back in the late 80’s I knew a couple kids that played D-1 ball & if they came to our house for dinner which they often did, without the other members of the team, then by feeding only them, it was deemed impermissible benefits. These were great kids. One of them I helped with his masters thesis for several months. So if just feeding them is not a complete 2AA crock then I don’t know what is. Hell I starved when I went to school. Some nights there were 3 guys one box of mac & cheese & others it was a lone can of whole kernel corn. Tell us how in the hell a program could be expected to monitor something so trivial as food??. And like Bilas says, how can a University be held accountable for a kid getting perks at AAU or HS levels, or his parents getting a dinner tab picked up or whatever? It’s absolutely not possible to go on anything other than what the kid declares about his status when he signs the LOI. beyond that statement, the 2AA ain’t got nothing other than an assurance from any kid in any sport, period. How they could be a victim with all the tax free money they haul in, is completely & totally incomprehensible IMO. The Universities maybe, but sure as hell not the 2AA.

The Honorable R Lee Ermey, Marine Drill Sargent, critically acclaimed actor with many movie credits & 2 History Channel tv 📺 shows, and Emporia Kansas native passed away Sunday at 74 years young. God Speed Sargent Ermey & well done.

@mayjay www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2012/01/ncaa_adopts_cecil_newton_rule.html

This may be the eventual kicker in all this “three blind mice” spiel. There’s a ton of info out there on this rule if you google a few keywords.

@mayjay FWIW this is the first (contract) year that any KU sports coverage has been broadcasted on a clearly KSU & MU biased Entercom station & to be quite frank, Zenger is the first place anyone should look for a trail, whether it be blood, paper, or just the ever-so-subtle (HA!) shoe co tracks …

@BShark

I believe the show is called between the lines and goes from 2 to 6 in the afternoon and is led by Kietzman.

The little turd 💩 Kietzman should really call the show “Between the Sheets” when the discussion is about a topic involving KU for a couple of reasons.

1. Former KSTATE assistant AD & FB recruiting coordinator Shane Zenger is currently greasing the wheels at KU & with the way he’s spearheaded our FB team disfunction & successfully negotiated a gazillion dollar 💵 deal with filthy ass Adidas to take our HOF coach & the BB program to the stratosphere, it goes without saying that he could possibly be a stinky fish 🐠 in the live well. Surely someone’s giving him the eye (nose) test. Let’s hope the wheels don’t just fall off.

2. KK & many of the KSU graduate proprietors at Entercom Broadcasting literally hate everything KU plain & simple. And back to reason #1, surely SZ doesn’t fall in category 2 also. Nah, no way … Trust me, there’s an assload of people out there that see the house on fire 🔥 & are more than happy to throw on more ⛽️ gasoline.

@Fightsongwriter Like Oakville (Tony B ) Hawk says on kusports.com. If in fact, KU did use an ineligible player, then Big 12 Tournament Championship, Sweet 16, Regional Championship, FF, title #14, plus everything else involving Silvio on the roster will be gone. Maybe sooner or later-but gone. Whether we like it or lump it, that’s the way it will eventually go if we played an ineligible player, which in all appearance we most likely did. And it supremely pisses me off like just as much or maybe even more than others, but this is most likely the way the effin’ cookie will crumble. Here’s a link to his post. Is one of the last comments on the page but I think he nailed the crap out of it.

@HighEliteMajor Regarding Mitch & possible change. In light of the recent investigation into Silvios guardians possible impropriety with 👞 co money 💰, it’s now possible that Mitch might not need redshirt next fall. Doke is a wildcard in this plot now for sure. It’s also possible he may graduate in less than 4 years & be an eligible transfer himself. Yes he is crazy about KU, but he also is an extremely brilliant young man who happens to be a PDG athlete, and wants to play too & knows those days in the 🌞 Sun won’t last forever. There really are a couple of scenarios where he might either be forced out or maybe move on himself- One of which might be if he were asked to give up the scholarship & walk on. At that point Dad & Mom get involved & all bets are off. I’m not aware that HCBS has ever done that before but certainly there are others who have. For sure Billy does recruit over kids all the time & Mitch is still a kid just wants to play while he still can. He knows his clock is ticking. Just my nickels worth.
