A 5th round pick? That guy is slow as ****, he won't be a good NFL player.

His projected 40 time is a 4.7 if you pull up WR rankings he's always in the 20's, explain to me how that puts him that high.

Does it?

I dunno how about get that free degree seeing as he doesn't have much pro potential either way.

He's going to have to shave some serious time off his 40, and learn to run the route tree before anyone considers him a 3rd round pick or better.

:doh!: Shit dude I forgot that ONLY KU players are brainless thugs... What was I thinking?

From what I've heard, he could challenge Vince Young's wonderlic score.

What do you think of DA of mizzou

Agreed, probably not a good move, maybe should of waited to see who they brought in to replace Mangino first....

For everything Briscoe has done at the college level, he's a very marginal pro prospect.

He's basically a shitty version of Adarius Bowman who is still not in the league.

ROFL

That is pretty bad, VY's barely gave him enough brain cells to breath...

I hate to say it but Herm would probably be a damn good college coach. He could be like Pete Carroll. If he could recruit, which I think he probably could with a pro-set offense and Cover 2 defense lots of kids with NFL dreams would bite on that, he could do it. You can get away with lot of his coaching mistakes in college with elite talent.

Scott Wright has him as the 6th best WR, IIRC.

For Alexander, his 40 time will have a ton to do with his draft position. Because of the knee and all of that.

He has size, but being from the gimmicky offense does hurt him.

:cuss:

Lately it kind of seems to be that way. But are you going to really stand behind your comment that "many" Big 12 players are brainless thugs? You would think if it was "many" some Mizzou playmaker or players would be included in that.

Gabbert
Washington
Alexander
Hoch
Gregory
Watherspoon
Smith
Coulter
Baston
Henry
Ressell
Gettis

Name me the brainless thug.

4.7 is being nice. Did you watch the KU game where they had a WIDE OPEN reverse and he gets out ran to the corner by a defensive end?

Kerry Meier could be a nice prospect though.

Not bad, i wouldn't mind the chiefs taking him if he is a mid round guy but his injury history is scary

Yeah i dont know what he'd run, but i think he could be a solid pro if healthy

Gabbert that ****er!

Hey, we bring up basketball. That's our thing! Get your own thing.

I dunno, I could see it going either way at this point... back to irrelevance or back to at least fighting for the North.

I would like KU to atleast be decent, makes the games more fun. It wont matter though if mizzous d is crap, they'll make ku look good even if the team sucks

I don't think Kansas has any legit pro prospects outside of Stuckey who is a solid prospect so anyone declaring early from there is just baffling.

Meier's 40 time isn't much better. 4.65 at best.

The only possible decent NFL prospect at KU is Stuckey, and he'll likely be a 2nd/3rd.

Yes but Meier is an athlete where Briscoe is pretty much all about size.

I can't believe KU fans would be pissed about Herm Edwards, his philosphy is exactly what it will take to beat Big 12 south teams.

Errrrmmmm ok Dez....whatever you say.

I don't think I could name a "brainless thug" on KU's team other than Briscoe, TBH.

Meier will be lucky if he makes the practice squad somewhere

Here's a coaching prospect: Former KU QB Kelly Donahue - Head Coach Blue Springs HS

Good HS coach

That is probably why you didn't say "many" Big 12 players are that way.

They wanted Kelly on as QB coach at Kansas before he got hired at Blue Springs.

Dez Briscoe thinks he's Dez Bryant apparently.

It isn't even a good WR year and Briscoe still will be lucky to have his name called by the 5th round.

I just think Meier would have a better chance at making it to the NFL before Briscoe would. Plus lost in all of this is Briscoe is a risk off the field too.

:rolleyes:

Hence "brainless thug".

ROFL
Don't worry young Ari, there will always be.....

Insert Billy Gillespie and you have the same situation with him at Kentucky only in Basketball....

*******

Herm would be a better fit at Nebraska actually. He could recruit top flight talent there, not so much at KU.

Damn Basketball Jones is over the top. I had never seen that.

The 70's were quite the different time.

Bumb for Reerun

He's not on that list but he goes by the handle |Zach|.

Wait, yes, I went there. I went that lame.

That was assumed.

I think Perkins will find a good candidate to replace Mangino. At least I hope so. I plan on buying season tickets for next season.

I think it will be a rough season though, for KU. Losing Reesing and Briscoe, that's significant. You still got Quigley.

I think it will be rough is that the new coach will come in, and probably implement his own offensive/defensive scheme and the players having to re-learn the differnet termonology and such.

I could be wrong but I think Kale Pick will be a good QB. And I think that McDougald will be a good WR.

What an unfortunate name for a QB.

Haha..yeah, most definitely.

You gotta understand. For people like Mecca, there are a few power programs and anyone that is not those, they don't mean jack to him. It's also why he whines about other programs that run spread offenses. You know, because USC runs a pro style.

Kale says perhaps not.

Sportscaster: And the Jayhawks marched right down the field for the TD. Most of the yards were gained through the air as Kale picked apart the defense. ;)

It will go both ways.

Newfeed during the Big 12 Champy says KU is interviewing Turner Gill.

Report: Turner Gill to interview for Kansas opening

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By J. Brady McCollough - Posted on 05 December 2009

Buffalo coach Turner Gill will interview for the Kansas head coaching vacancy on Sunday, CBS' Tony Barnhardt said during the SEC Championship pregame show.

Gill, a former quarterback and assistant coach at Nebraska, led the Bulls to the 2008 MAC championship and their first bowl game in 50 years. Gill was a candidate for the Nebraska opening two years ago, but the school hired Bo Pelini instead.

Gill's daughter, Jordan, attends Kansas.

Gill's contract with Buffalo was extended after last season and runs through 2013.

More on Gill.

Reports are starting to surface that Buffalo head coach Turner Gill will interview for the vacancy at Kansas.

Gill, the former Nebraska quarterback and assistant coach, hasn't confirmed it, but this isn't a surprise. His daughter attends Kansas, and a return to the Midwest would be an attraction.

http://www.omaha.com/article/2009120...ED02/912059968

crap...

Yeah, why in the hell would we want a 5-7 MAC coach.

At 14-18, his conference winning percentage is a monumental upgrade from Mangino.

:banghead:

And now Kusports.com is reporting it.

Buffalo’s Gill reportedly interviewing for KU vacancy

Buffalo head coach Turner Gill

According to a report from CBS prior to Saturday's SEC championship game, Buffalo football coach Turner Gill will interview Sunday for the Kansas University head coaching position.

Gill, one of a handful of coaches mentioned as possible replacements for the recently resigned Mark Mangino, is in his fourth season as Buffalo's head coach, having led the program to the 2008 MAC championship and their first bowl game in half a century.

Despite recent comments stating he was comfortable at Buffalo, meanwhile, Gill has multiple ties to both the Big 12 and KU. Two years ago, he interviewed for the Nebraska head coaching job that eventually went to Bo Pelini, while his daughter, Jordan, is a sophomore at KU.

Interestingly, Mark Mangino's daughter, Samantha, was also a sophomore at KU when Mangino was hired as KU's coach in 2001.

A Buffalo sports information director could not be reached for comment.

Mangino moved Quigley to LB. Not sure why, I thought he could do well at RB if he would have held the ball high and tight and quit ****ing fumbling. He may have been too ****ing stupid to learn the offense, but I liked what I saw last year.

I fully expect KU football to blow ass.

Well, Buffalo had won 4 games in the previous 4 years in conference, which is a pretty good turnaround considering they had at least 3 wins (in 2007) for the first time since 2001, won at least 5 games (total, from 07-09) three years in a row for the first time since '82-84, and had a winning record (last year) for the first time since '96.

Do the colleges have a Rooney Rule?

Your new hc

so will KU be the only Big 12 team with a black head coach?

Could be. Shouldn't make a difference, though. Get the best coach they can get, and if he happens to be a man of color (Gill, Sumlin), then so be it.

I just hope the new coach keeps the same or similar style offense. KU's personnel is built around that and I would hate to see a Herm Edwards Chiefs style regression. That's why Houston's coach would be a good hire, IMO. Not sure what Gill runs at Buffalo.

In any case, I'm with Braincase. I just want the best coach (duh).
