Jayhawks !

Kansas - 34
Illinois - 23

Happy for our old Big 8 brothers, the Jayhawks. It's sad for our conference.

What Kansas and its turnaround in football shows us is that, with the right coaching staff, even a woeful football program can be turned around. Here is Kansas, a basketball school where football has been largely an after thought with only a few exceptions (Mangino years, Glenn Mason years, some years in the sixties) going back 70 years, now has a good football program. This same Kansas which over the previous 10 years went through coach after coach and was barely able to win 2 games a year is now playing quality football.

We, obviously, have much, much, much more going for us as we seek to turn this ship around. I think Rhule can do it. I think he will do it. Even if we get boat raced today in Boulder we should keep our eyes on the longer term resurrection of this program.

It’s a 6 month rebuild, tops
