KU ***** OFFICIAL 2015 KANSAS FOOTBALL THREAD ***** - Page 42

Mr_Tomahawk · 08:15 AM

Let's go...

Rob Likens (Offensive Coordinator)

"Rob has been a major player in some of the best offenses in the history of college football,” Beaty said of his new OC, who enjoyed great success at Louisiana Tech and helped lead Cal's 2013 offense to several school records and put the 2014 version in the Top 10 nationally. “I have always been a fan of Rob's ability to develop players who produce at a high level. Rob has learned from some of the best in the country and is as fine of an offensive mind as I have been around. Rob is a man of integrity and character and I cannot wait for our team to be able to benefit from his wisdom."

Zach Yenser (Offensive Line - Run Game Coordinator)

A source with knowledge of the rest of the Kansas University football coaching staff told The Journal-World on Tuesday night that Cal assistant coach Zach Yenser would join Beaty's staff as the offensive line coach and run game coordinator.

Cal coach Sonny Dykes later confirmed the news via a statement given to Cal's Rivals.com site.

Clint Bowen (Defensive Coordinator)

Je'Ney Jackson (Strength and Conditioning)

"Je'Ney brings a great familiarity with the University of Kansas as well as a wealth of experience in the strength and conditioning world," Beaty said. "His ability to develop and relate to our players will be a large part of our initiative moving forward. He is widely regarded as one of the top coordinators in this field. He is without a doubt, my most important hire and we are honored to have him here."

Kevin Kane (Linebackers)

"I always admired Kevin as a player, but I am even more impressed with his ability to teach and develop young players. He is a tireless recruiter and he is as well thought of in the Kansas City community as anyone I know. He will bring an energy and toughness to our team that we will all benefit from. It has been fun watching his linebackers play over the years and I'm glad that he is now coaching our guys.”

Calvin Thibodeaux (Defensive Line)

"His players exhibit responsibility, toughness and passion and we are looking forward to him bringing those elements to KU. His ability as a coach is only surpassed by his upstanding character and integrity as a man."

Klint Kubiak (Wide Receivers)

"He is as hard of a worker as I have ever seen in our profession. His ability to connect with his players in the NFL and at Texas A&M has been impressive to watch. Our wide receivers will benefit greatly from his experience."

Gene Wier (Director of High School Relations)

"Not only is he fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming a Jayhawk, but he will certainly add a much-needed element to our staff. His long-standing relationships with the great coaches of the state will allow us to better understand and serve our coaches."

Why do this to yourself? The BPI currently gives us a 4% chance to win. It's in Austin and we haven't won a road game in 5 years. We lost to a FCS team....at home.

We are not winning that game or any other and maybe none next year. When the final #s come in we will potentially compete for worst team ever - not just at KU but ever. We may be saved from that by teams benching guys at halftime out of pity.

Oh. I know we are shit. There is no question.

But it is funny UT is also trash. They take their football FAR more seriously than I do.

I think I might bet on that game. I'm sure it will be about -17 Texas, but I would bet on Texas to cover because Strong will be fighting for his job and he would like nothing more than to beat the piss out of somebody to silence at least a few critics and boosters.

KU football has become what Chiefs football is to me anymore. I just honestly don't care if I miss the games. I watched one half of KU football this year, and completely forget about the games on Saturdays. This past Sunday I ran some errands and did work around the house instead of watching the Chiefs.

Reerun_KC · 10-06-2015, 11:23 AM

How much lower can this program get? Are we to KState pre Snyder levels yet? I am not sure this thing could ever get turned around unless you get a big name coach that just wants to F with people to come here....

That's about the only way it will probably happen if it ever does... Fasten up the seat belts. Gonna be a long long ride...

You're worse than K-State, or anyone else ever has been. Worst team in history.

I hate to agree, but it's true.

Cozart is out indefinitely. Willis will get the start against Baylor.

I'm much more interested in watching KU than the Chiefs.

Believe me...this is a true battle of attrition.

You root for a team that has had a head coach in place for 7 years.

In every year the winning total has gone down.

You are truly the Bizzaro World fan base.

Probably. But, hey, how many BCS Bowl wins do you guys have?

That's right.

Beaty has a lot of recruiting to do. KU lost a ton of players. Wies went all in on the JUCOs and it didn't pan out, unfortunately. It will take another year or two most likely before KU starts to look competitive, I'm afraid. So far and despite the losing, it appears that DB is an upgrade. How much is TBD. Gotta give him time as he was left with a mess. I know KU fans don't want to hear that but it's the truth. It wouldn't matter if Urban Meyer was KU's coach this year. He would be losing just the same.
