So, not only were you not smart enough to get into a school with an 88% acceptance rate, you aren't smart enough to use google too.

LMAO

Damn, you're right. Women's Golf, 1983

I was wrong

Golf is a team sport?

But because of that, Nike gives them 10% off all products.

Why are you in this thread making a fool of yourself, bro?

Thought for sure TCU could have bought themselves a sneaker...

Get this shit in the Shit Talk thread and out of the KU thread for ****s ****ing sake.

Keep 'em comin

14 tackles in 3 seasons. Nice.

Bowl tix = print em

Meh. But beggars can't be choosers. Get as many as we can and let em duke it out for the starting positions.

Raiders with an absolute steal...

ESPN piece on how Charlie Weis left Kansas football in ruins
 

I got a code for a discount on tickets for the Baylor game if any of you guys are trying to buy tickets

Beaty with another recruit yesterday. Decides to come home after committing to Arizona.

http://247sports.com/Player/Timmy-Ha...titution=23605

As much of a disaster that is Charlie.....Radio was equally pathetic....

Oh, no doubt. Looking back, wished they had gotten Gus Malzahn. Then again, he may have bolted after 1 year. It's gonna take at least a couple years to make this program competitive again and more than likely at least 3-4.

Any word on why he walked away from a scholarship at Arizona to sit out a year and walk on at Kansas?

Hopefully just one to become not embarrassing.

So what are the expectations for this week/season? Anything you're hoping to see from the new regime?

Less anal rape on a weekly basis would be nice.

Don't go O-fer.

In all seriousness, i'd like to see some competitiveness from the team as a whole... Not just individual players. Under Weissass and Radio, you'd have a player here and there that were competitive... but the rest of the team seemed to run in slow motion. As if they were afraid to fail (or succeed for that matter).

I want to see kids playing football, not going through the motions.

In all honesty, this has got to be about the perfect time for a coach to lead a Snyderesque turnaround. You could look at every other coach in the conference save Gary Patterson and make a compelling argument that they won't be there beyond the 2016 season.

Damn was hoping to make a gsme, but my football travel schedule is insane already this year. Will be heading to Rocky top to watch the Sooners and TN.

You've got to find a way to tailgate on a boat. That shit is amazing.

Either going with an auto group or restaurant group. I am sure we will be in suites.

It was being discussed today on the radio that this actually seemed like a good time for a new staff to take over a team like KU.

I think what's going on at Baylor is going to blow up big. That school has simply sold their souls to the devil to win in both football and basketball and I think it's finally going to catch up with them.

What sucks for KU fans is that on Friday night Baylor will be starting a QB that was committed to the Hawks up until the day Turner Gill was fired. My point is that talent on Power 5 programs can swift very quickly and with the right staff in place Beaty could be in a great position to move his program to the middle of the pack sooner than later.

TCU is here to stay. The school and fans are shit but the coach is great. This must frustrate UT and OU to no end but that is not within Kansas' concern this year.

I want a win Saturday. And I want a comfortable win. KU is strong at RB, DE, and TE. The OL has come together better than the staff has originally predicted as has the interior defensive linemen.

I think KU wins 38-17.

From what I've heard this staff is focused on details and preparation unlike the past two head coaches. Could this be BS? Possibly... but at the onset of the season a fan typically gives the benefit of the doubt. As KU fans we want to see a professionally run game with few mistakes and missed assignments...even if that means the most talented players aren't on the field. This is the only way to build a program.

If you look back at the good KU teams 7-10 years ago you saw disciplined line play that rarely got called for holding, false starts, etc. That needs to happen. TG and Weis both ran teams that opted to put the "most talented player" on the field as opposed to insisting that those players follow their assignments to a "t". Those are the types of things I'll be looking for more on Saturday as opposed to the scoreboard.

Regardless it's great to be back and playing ball. For some reason this offseason has felt impossibly long.

Jealous. That sounds awesome

Good post Bambi.

I'm with you but I don't think we are beating anyone 38-17

The spread is 5. The game is at home. SDS has never beat a 1A team. Plus factoring in the point that this is Beaty's first game? I think they come in fast and get out to a lead.

Watch out for Steven Sims. From all accounts KU has a real steal with this kid.

Joshua Stanford brings good size and should be better skilled than anyone on the opposing team's roster.

The running backs are solid.

It will all come down to Montell. I'm willing to cut the kid a break because the past two seasons have been a trainwreck for his development. When Beaty came in he put plenty of pressure on MC and that will include this Saturday. Ryan Willis has a cannon for an arm and is by far the best thrower on the team. It won't take long for the true freshman to get on the field if things aren't working out for MC.

I feel KU has more options than originally thought. Either way it's going to be fun.

Will find out tomorrow if my son and I have tickets to the TCU @ OU game. Not an OU fan on the least. But everyone I fly is. Possibility that I might meet Jerome Bettis soon as another owner and him are best friends. Didn't know that until his HOF induction. And what sucks is I had to pass up the Canton trip as I was Already booked for another trip.

They went to Bettis private party and met him in person. Bettis moved through the crowd quickly to get to the person we flew up there. Cried when he hugged him. Had no idea they were that close.

Still pisses me off that j could of went.

I really don't have expectations in year 1. This sets the baseline. Ask me next season...

We have a pair of season tickets and all I know is that my 5 year old has been talking about Saturday's game for the past 2 weeks.

That's pretty awesome for me.

We have a group from NYC to the Rutgers game in a couple weeks.

If anyone is in the area and wants to go PM me.

That's awesome. Sometimes I wish our owners were KU fans. We would travel a lot more. Once OU loses a game they stop watching and caring.

lol, really? That's so dumb.

Neat. I think Bettis is a decent dude IRL.

The news showed some guy working out jumping over cars and shit

I guess he is going to play football at KU for what they were saying

Dude looked like a freak monster

Insane.

Yep. That's a football player dunking a basketball.

Wilson Was trying to make the team.... he worked out with the program in the spring and part of the summer, but never made it.

http://www2.kusports.com/news/2015/a...all-game-week/

Complete workout warrior, that couldn't play football for the life of him.

LMAO

It's tougher to get into TCU than ku. Plus, our fans actually go to our sporting events in multiple sports.

You're right that we're not your concern. We win conference championships in sports that matter. You guys just suck.

TCU was 9th in football attendnace last year in the Big 12.

You pay apparel companies to outfit your sports teams.

I can't think of anything more pathetic.

TCU is a try-hard

Going to the season opener on Saturday. I don't expect much but hope to see improvement in the coaching. KU lost a several good players on that defense. Heck, I think I read the other day that they only have 4 starters (offense and defense) returning from last year. In a way that's good but we lost a lot of experience. Beaty is starting from the ground up.

Lol at KCnutbag for thinking that hoops isn't a sport that matters.

LMAO

Because we have one of the smallest stadiums in the conference.

TCU used 99.4% of its capacity for all of the home games. Oklahoma, Kstate, and Baylor were the only ones higher.

jealous beaker fan is jealous.

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...368318c7a0.jpg

No one cares about college basketball (except ku fans who have nothing else to cheer for). The era of the one and done has made it irrelevant.

Again, you have no clue. College football may be number 1 in ratings and money brought in, but college hoops is definitely second place. Also, you're not the first person to claim that KU fans only care about hoops. In the Mangino years, I posted pics of the filled stadium the first game of the season. Same thing early in Gill's and Weis' tenures. KU fans will support the football program but we won't support ineptitude.

TCU fans show up for their teams:


Football: 9th of 10
Basketball: 10th of 10
Women's basketball: 10th of 10


No wonder they have to pay Nike for gear.

Ugh. This is the stupidest argument and it keeps getting repeated as if it is some sort of truth. Is asinine because it's said by people simply thinking it gets under the skin of KU fans.

It falls in line with those dumb "stupid person is stupid" posts.

Yes they did. They lost more players to the NFL than schools like TCU.

It will be a challenge this year.

I just post revenue numbers and then fans from all the "football" schools flip out.

It's hilarious.

How is that even possible? ROFL

Small private school, obviously.

Their combined basketball and football attendance was only 387,364 last year...lowest in the Big 12. Kansas had significantly more at 467,455.

LMAO

You really are an innumerate idiot.

TCU's stadium holds 45k. Our season tickets are sold out. Individual tickets for our decent home games are pretty much sold out.

Our basketball teams played in a community college gym last year because our basketball stadium was being renovated (another thing that severely constrained capacity).


Oh hey look, here's us playing against weak ass sand aggie (who's still way better than ku) and our stadium is full.

http://cdn.fansided.com/wp-content/b...-christian.jpg


Here's people sitting in GA since our baseball stadium was full.
https://cmgstatesmancollegesports.fi...m-tcu_7_ft.jpg

But hey, you can get a coupon to watch ku play a top-tier bible aggie team. Such awesome attendance.

and here's ku vs. texas tech.

http://worldonline.media.clients.ell...2efdf5419cfee3

TCU played in the Peach Bowl last year.

It was the first time in 17 years the Peach Bowl didn't sell-out.

When your brand is shit, your brand is shit.

TCU sold all of its allotment for the Peach Bowl. It's not our fault that hicks in Georgia and from Ole Miss didn't buy their share of tickets because they didn't want to watch us stomp a mudhole in Ole Miss.

What was your allotment? Like 100?

The same as Ole Miss' allotment (17k).

That was a strange matchup. Big 12 champ against SEC #5.

Just to back up what I said earlier, I found the pics of the home opener in 2012. This was the first game under Weis and it was against South Dakota State.

Big 12 standings:

Football record: KU 9th
Football attendance: TCU 9th


TCU fans performed about like the KU football team.

photo shopped pic is photo shopped.

ROFL

You're gonna have to troll better than that.

Can we please stop inviting this dumbass into our threads?

The realignment thread exists for a reason, dudes.

We could but personally I find him hilarious.

He gets his ass kicked in the realignment thread so that's a tough one.

Let him be hilarious in the realignment thread. **** this shit.

Just got some tickets for Saturday. Not sure what to expect but I love KU football, even in the bad years.

I'll be there, too. You tailgating or just going into the game? 11am is kinda early.

Just going to the game. We usually tailgate but the guy I'm going with had some stomach issues and is in the middle of a two month alcohol free order from his doctor. I have done my fair share of 8 AM tailgating for an 11 am game though.

In games called by Brendan Burke and Ben Leber on Fox Sports KU is 3-0.

Guess who has the call on Saturday?

I have a wedding Saturday, a little upset that in going to miss our home opener.

The fire rises boys...

2001, 2002 High School Conference champs!

I don't know this kid, or if his videos are a facade of his real athletic ability but football really comes down to athleticism. Of any sport there is that I know if, it's the most important thing. If a kid can run a sub 4.5, is at least 5'9'' and has a 38+ vert...he could be on a roster somewhere.

Maybe he can fill in for the dude they just kicked off the team yesterday.
