Didn't go after a DT in portal because they have a lot of numbers back.

He said if one "fell in their lap" it doesn't mean they wouldn't take one, but most likely staying with what they have.

LAWRENCE, Kan. – The University of Kansas and Les Miles have mutually agreed to part ways effective immediately. Terms of the agreement will be released in the coming days. While a national search for a new head coach begins immediately, Mike DeBord will continue to serve as the acting head coach until an interim head coach is determined.

Statement from Director of Athletics Jeff Long:

“I am extremely disappointed for our university, fans and everyone involved with our football program. There is a lot of young talent on this football team, and I have no doubt we will identify the right individual to lead this program. We will begin the search for a new head coach immediately with an outside firm to assist in this process. We need to win football games, and that is exactly what we’re going to do.”

Statement from Former Head Football Coach Les Miles:

“This is certainly a difficult day for me and for my family. I love this university and the young men in our football program. I have truly enjoyed being the head coach at KU and know that it is in a better place now than when I arrived. To our student-athletes, I want you to remember that you came to play for KU and earn a degree here. So, I implore you to stay and build on what we started and do all of the things we talked about doing together. There is a bright future for all of you and for KU Football.”

The refs were great.

I say they sucked.

Is practicing. Word was he returned on Saturday.

Anyone here the comment on postgame?
Didn't hear it all, but something about many eyes on Braun, but he needs to return for another year in same fashion as Och.

I honestly thought this was a George Brett biopic but I guess not. I’m going to see it today and hope it gets close to “Joker” with Joaquin Phoenix.

My question: should I wear a Joker face mask? Yay or nah?

Will he be a one legger for the rest of the year or could this heal with rest?

On Tuesday afternoon, Bill Self and Ochai Agbaji met with the media to preview the Big 12 tournament and more.

Has 5/9 in championship game. Early second half they up 1. Still pull for him.

So I learned today about a website called Opendorse and that the University of Oregon is using it for a platform for their athletes to be contacted by a third-party for NIL transactions. I went to a link I was provided https://app.opendorse.com/shop/oregon-ducks. If you click on it, you get a listing of athletes at University of Oregon. I then searched the site in general and went to other universities. Some, if you select them, the option "professional athletes" is also added automatically, which suggests no current student athletes for that institution are available. I then entered KU, and no "professional athletes" was added to my selection. The page then populated with all kinds of KU folks from the past, as well as current student athletes such as Dujuan Harris, Devin Neal, etc. However, there is no separate link that gets you just KU student athletes like it does for Oregon. I am told that universities are looking at setting up arrangements just like Oregon to have all of their student athletes listed as a separate group for persons looking to contract with student athletes for their NIL. Kentucky and UNC also have student athletes listed with their professional and retired alumni but they do not have a separate student athlete listing.

I believe this player is visiting today. Really like his size for Strong Safety.

Adding a Boy Hawk to the roster in September! 💙

Talked to him tonight making more calls to players who visited this week.

If there was one player I felt the best about it would be him.

He likes KU a lot.
