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."

Time will tell, but he sure looked the part. Better than anything we have trotted out there since Reesing...

Not a huge Briles fan, but I don't have a problem with this. I also wouldn't have a problem if he played his starters every single second of the 2nd half to win 104-10. Style points matter for BCS standings.

Got a Commitment this weekend from a Offensive Tackle (Chris Hughes) out of Harker Heights, just north of Austin. He was one of our top targets and is a big get for this year. These are the type of kids that the team HAS to get in here, to provide an injection of talent. As of right now, he's the best commitment for the coming class - on paper.

**Lzen** · 10-12-2015, 12:53 PM

I like the future with Willis at QB. Obviously, we still need a lot more talent at the other positions. This team is very young and not very talented. I'm hoping Beaty can field a somewhat competitive team next year. But in reality that may not happen until at least 2017. Gotta have patience although I'm really tired of having patience. I thought Gill was the biggest disaster but I now realize that Weis was just as bad and possibly worse.

Either him or Maciah Long.

The encouraging thing is that these are our two best recruits and they've come the two most recently.

Keep it rollin.

Apparently bball recruits won't shutup about the new dorms.

When are we building one for the football players?

I want to be upset but he's a juco. I want this program to be done with them for while.

**Saul Good** · 10-17-2015, 01:06 PM

Kansas has a shot at winning this one.

**Saul Good** · 10-17-2015, 01:13 PM

Touchdown Kansas. It's 23-20 Tech. Kansas has missed 3 FGs and an extra point.

Bambi · 10-17-2015, 01:19 PM

Finish Them

Bambi · 10-17-2015, 01:21 PM

lol, that was awesome

**Saul Good** · 10-17-2015, 01:21 PM

Unreal...two Tech players wrestle the ball away from each other in the end zone.

**Saul Good** · 10-17-2015, 01:25 PM

Welp...
