All time MBB program rankings
You're right, KState actually had a very good basketball history before they fell off the basketball planet after Kruger left. They went to four Final Fours and lost the NC game to Kentucky in 1951, and won half of the conference titles in the 50's and 60's, and almost half in the 70's. The only...- Bird

ISU - KU prediction
KU 42 ISU 24 I think ISU will score more then some of you think. As a KU fan, your enormous OL scares me, we didn't do well handling Texas Tech's monster OL last year. We're good at limiting opponents running game, but our pass d strategy tends to be keeping everything in front and relying... -

Kansas Game Preview
Reesing's a true senior, Meier a redshirt senior. Meier was QB for half the season in 2006 (his RS Freshman year, he was HS class of 2005) before getting hurt. Reesing took over at halftime of the CU game in 2006 (his true freshman year, he was HS class of 2006), and never let go of the starting... -

Most hated Big 8 or Big 12 players ever
Sutherland is playing minor league football now. As a KU fan, I actually disliked Grimm far more than him. I thought I might see LaFrentz, Collison, and Hinrich on here, but admit I was a little surprised how much you guys dislike KU. Interesting.- Bird

Attendance for KU
I don't think any KU fan (including myself) thinks ISU can't play with us, but I also don't think any KU fan "really hate(s) ISU". I think Hilton and Gallagher-Iba (sp?) are the 2 toughest places KU consistently has to play (and that includes at MU), because of the fans. Honestly, and don't blow...- Bird

Beshears is now KU's
Are you saying he would be less jammed for immediate playing time at KU? Maybe if 2010 is immediate. Next year, KU returns probably 90% of our receiving yards, including BXII honorable mention WR Kerry Meier and BXII second team Dezmon Briscoe. Beshears looks a lot like WR/CB Daymond... -

How do we stop KU?
Jumbo, the lack of a running game is a huge concern, especially with things getting tougher as league starts. The most alarming part is that it's not something that can be easily fixed. It's hard to imagine Reesing continuing to carry the team through league when defenses really key on him... -

How do we stop KU?
Respectful KU fan here, and you're right about this. USF has 2 excellent DE's, but we're starting 2 redshirt freshmen at OT. They've struggled at both pass protection and run blocking. Luckily for us, Reesing is excellent at moving around the pocket while keeping his eyes downfield. excellent at... -

Talent???
Just adding that as a KU fan, I have nothing but respect for Blythe, I think he's awesome. It seemed you guys had a young OL; Meier (sp?) and Blythe seemed to kill everyone a few years back. Aqib Talib (our CB) said Blythe and Sweed (UT) are the two hardest WR to cover in the Big XII. Sorry...- Bird

Talent???
KU fan here, no flaming, I respect ISU fans the most in the Big XII. Anyway, just thought I'd clarify that Henry is not a JuCo. He was an overlooked WR in HS ball in Oklahoma, we happened to catch him in a state all star game. The fatman is excellent in identifying overlooked talent. It took...- Bird
