I didn't realize that Nick Wright had Berglund on his show yesterday until I just heard a clip from it in a 610 commercial. The little bit I heard wasn't very flattering. Yikes.

Berglund always sounded completely mad dickish. If Kansas wants to piss off Blue Springs HS kids that is fine.

Nick referred to KU's position as "patently, ridiculously, criminally unjust". Berglund found out he had been kicked off the team when he started getting texts from friends who read it in Twitter. The kid's very good on the radio. Sounds like a smart kid, but his history suggests he's a punk. I'm about halfway through the 15 minute interview.

I have to believe there is some reason behind it though. There doesn't appear to be any reason for KU to be a dick about it just to be a dick about it. They've granted release for other players - but this guys doesn't get it? There has to be more to it. And honestly, the hearing for his release isn't until 1/27. I bet KU releases him at that point. So, why go from asking to talk with other coaches (not requesting release) to getting a lawyer and going public with it when the hearing isn't for another week? |

Sounds like you don't read very well. That quote was from the radio host, not Brock.
Brock actually came across as a very mature and intelligent kid. He didn't say anything critical about anyone or anything. He was very up front about his role in the situation and just wants his release to play somewhere else. Kansas needs to just let him go. That 15 minute interview could be very damaging. The last thing I would want would be to have something like that aired about Mizzou. The DUI thing was shitty enough, but I don't get the sense that it really undermined Pinkel on the recruiting trail.

In these kind of situations the people who are doing all the interviews and "coming across" as nice people are usually the ones at fault. That's just how it works. The DUI Pinkel got is huge, you're kidding yourself. |

I'm sure there are reasons for not letting him go, but I don't think they matter. This is a major university and some extremely powerful, extremely wealthy people keeping a kid from playing football. They should wash their hands of this thing before it turns into a bigger PR nightmare than it already is. (Being a Mizzou fan, I'm happy to watch it play out, but I have an agenda that doesn't favor KU.)

The football team isn't thinking about this at all. The hearing is scheduled. It's not a big deal. The only people making an issue of it are mu fans at this point. |
