KSU became bowl eligible today, beating Neb. gives them 7 wins.

No they didn't. They played two FCS teams. They are theoretically only 5-4.

That's called bandwagon jumping.

A few hours after dropping one to KSU, KU fan says they don't give a shit.

They've never given a shit. If people gave a shit, people would have been been filling up the stadiums before 2007. But they weren't. Now the KU football program will go back to the hole where it came from unless they give them something to cheer about next year. I don't expect a full crowd next week.

Are you suggesting that KU isn't a basketball school? Or that KU's football program has actual standards of success?

Which one?

Completely agree. Which is why if the Big 12 gets 9 teams eligible, KU will be the odd team out. Especially after the stadium is 1/4 Nebraska fans next week.

LOL give us a ****ing break.

I give a shit, you asshole. That's why I'm still here defending them. I'm just telling you the general sentiment about the football program in Lawrence. It hasn't changed.

And I'm saying...wait until 3 weeks from now and see what ****ing happens. KU may not even get to 6 wins.

Not being able to field a team capable of going .500 in league play?

Tactical Funky · 11-07-2009, 04:50 PM

I'm a hardcore KU football fan but still acknowledge the fact that KU is and always will be a basketball-first university, not only because of success, but heritage - which holds the most weight.

It's the opposite with a school like Texas, for example. Texas is and always will be a football-first school regardless of the success of their basketball program. Now that I think of it, a better comparison may be OU.

Either way, I'll continue to root equally hard for both the football and basketball teams. One may breed a lot more success, but hey, they're both KU so they both matter to me.

WilliamTheIrish · 11-07-2009, 04:51 PM

Also, if KU could do BIG Brother KSU a small solid and just go ahead and beat NU next week, I'd allow you to sit at my Thanksgiving table.

Thanks,

Will

2 years after an Orange Bowl we're just going to fire the guy? Even though he's provided several winning seasons in a row and improved recruiting significantly from where it was when he got here? How is that not a ****ed up idea?

Was going to cross that bridge after the game next week. Just thinking the thought made me gag.

And what do you think about this ridiculous idea of firing Mangino?
