@DoubleDD Every demand?

Let's see, producing documents of work he did as hatchet man for Starr?...no.

More time to review the documents produced the night before the first scheduled vote?...barely, only because of other issues.

Subpoenaing other witnesses involved in the alleged behavior?...no.

Comprehensive investigation by the FBI before having Ford and Kavanaugh testify?...no.

Comprehensive FBI investigation after the hearing, including direct interviewing of F and K, and interviewing dozens of people who contacted the FBI with info?....no.

Releasing those prior FBI investigations about which there is a dispute as to how absolving they are?...no.

Releasing this investigation, or even the directive the FBI was given in conducting it?...no.

Yep, the Republucans have bent over backwards to bring transparency to the process.

Looks like no answers for this one...

@DoubleDD You probably watch her more than I do since my sum total of viewing Maddow over, say, the past 3 years is literally at most 20 minutes, but thanks for proving you are making up straw arguments.

As to law schools being captured by some left wing educational conspiracy, you will find that law professors are largely not part of that. And the signers of the letter range widely in political orientation. Good job ignoring Stevens.

I am curious: how did the evil liberal conspirators manage to find Ford, convince her to bring a charge that raises wild drunkenness allegations against someone whose own later-produced materials describe himself and others as an obnovious drunk, manufacture 2 therapists' 5 year old notes, train her to pass a polygraph, and successfully coach her in testifying convincingly, all in a 6 week period of time?

More importantly, why is lying at a Senate hearing not important?

They even set up psychology sessions many years ago because they have a time machine and knew this nomination was coming. Very ingenious, poor Republicans never stood a chance with the Democrats having a time machine.

@Woodrow I have a problem with him lying under oath. To me that's a disqualifier from taking a lifetime seat on the highest court in the country.. i also believe that as a blackout drunk which has been confirmed by many people It is easy to believe three women that are accusing him with nothing to gain and everything to lose from doing so. If you want to turn a blind eye to all of that then I guess that's your prerogative.

He can't even resist lying in a fake apology.

@mayjay

Lets face it the Dem party and Libs were never going to be happy with the Kavanaugh confirmation. It was just going to be one endless investigation after another.
At some point you just have to say enough is enough.

Have a good day.

Funny, I don't see Democrats penalizing their caucus members that would confirm him unlike what happened with Merrick Garland. Weird.

@Bwag your definition of "good man" differs from mine

I had a lot typed on this subject but kept backspacing to be civil. I couldn't really make it work. Suffice to say I agree with you.

STATUS OF BRETT KAVANAUGH PERJURIES

Perjury ("Devil's Triangle"): CONFIRMED

Perjury ("FFFF"): CONFIRMED

Perjury ("boofing"): CONFIRMED

Perjury ("Bart"): CONFIRMED

Perjury (no groping): CONFIRMED

@mayjay We are supposed to believe one entitled plutocrat with everything to lose over tons of women with no reason to lie. :thinking:

Scott Chasen did a video chat that included some stuff on McBride.

Some good nuggets are that he actually visited KU on his own two years ago just to check out KU. Also had decided to come to KU long before the late night visit.

Sitting Billy was pretty smart...

100k AND a job offer from Creighton. Yeaaaah.

There are worse time frames this investigation could have hit for KU, that's for sure.

Sexton LITERALLY ON THE PAYROLL AT BAMA.

With their football program being what it is, you think they'd be better at cheating.

Oh just watch JRE end up at Zona. Talk about a meltdown.

STOP IT

@Kcmatt7 I mean...money talks. LOL

@Kcmatt7 He's Australian

Josh Green to Arizona as expected.

Yea I bit the bullet and got a subscription awhile ago. It's quality content with quality commenters. People don't typically troll at a place where they pay for the material.

Yep. The pay wall really cuts the riff raff.

Woodrow said:

Oh I agree that if you get Hurt and JRE it is a moot point. I agree the game has changed and true centers are becoming extinct but I still think someone like Doke is extremely valuable. I also think Self prefers to have a true center on his team...

I'd agree with that, I just think McCormack qualifies (he's 265 pounds), you don't really need two.

Who? lol

Kinda old news now but he is writing for the Athletic now. Covering KU and some other school. First couple articles have been excellent.

In case there was anyone still on the fence.

NCAA already declared him eligible. :shrug:

@Woodrow Disagree. The game has changed. Doke was unplayable against Villanova. McCormack is a bit more mobile than Doke but we will have to see how he progresses. I don't see needing another bulky center. I'd much prefer to see flexible bigs added. We should find out if KU is really involved when Kofi sets up his OVs. KU is the best program left on his list for sure. I do like that KU stayed involved though. If KU misses on Hurt and JRE (not as crazy as it sounds, imo) then adding Nnaji and Kofi would be a hell of a rebound. I would still much prefer JRE and Hurt since they have much more polished games at this point.

Kcmatt7 said:

We are 100% out on all other C prospects right?

Nnaji can definitely play the 5, he's 6'11''. Don't really NEED to take a true center with McCormack around. He will be good enough in that role when needed next year.

@KUSTEVE Correct. KU feels like they are in it just to be a big name here.

If I'm wrong I'll still be here to eat crow. Heh.

@KUSTEVE A national writer for 24/7. He can only report what he is told, but Wiseman isn't really considering KU. This smells like when the Maryland people were leaked that Dotson would pick Maryland.

Lol, Ryan shutting that shit down.

Evan Daniels sure thinks KU is a threat.

I had to fan off after reading that tweet.

@Kcmatt7 Plans to visit UCLA and Oregon still.

There are more quotes in that article that bode very well for KU, in my biased opinion.

VIP article on 247 about Stanley's visit. Sounds like KU did everything they could to position themselves well in this.

Scott gave out this quote for free so I feel okay copy pasting it

"It was an extremely warm, supportive family environment. They take very good care of the student-athletes there. They are very supportive and that’s why they thrive. The whole University community seems to embrace their basketball team. It’s just a great place for anybody who is a high-level basketball player and wants to go to a major college program. I can’t think of a better place than Kansas from what I’ve seen."

Edit: There are more reaaaally good quotes so if you have 247 premium I recommend reading the article.

Yeah, KU fell off there for w/e reason.

@chriz Duke didn't have to vacate anything for Maggette lol

Woodrow said:

5 guard Scottie Lewis just committed to Florida. Mark white is doing some work there. Second 5 recruit in this class.

Plus their 4* post commit Omar Payne is a BEAST.

@1JayhawkLifer Yep. Benny Falmagne for anyone wondering.

Nice to see you here, Lifer.

This tweet just about sums up my thoughts on the matter.

John Broward @ACCRecruitingXP

If Smith Sr was employed by Adidas as an AAU coach just like Bagley Jr @ Duke who cares? Obvious loop hole but everybody did it . UNC paid Tyler Hansbros mother $200,000 for a bogus job while she gave blowjobs on a University private plane .

He is a bad bad man! That was a fun ass game to watch!

Broncos got ELWAYED. Ahahahahaha.

MAHOOOOOOOOOOOOMES.

LEFT HANDED FLIP PASS.

TWO TOUCHDOWNS IN THE LAST 7 MINUTES.

Lecque to NC State as expected.

"Code, Dawkins and Gatto are each charged with five felony counts related to wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud; Gatto faces a sixth felony related to a pay-for-play scheme involving Kansas recruits."

Not great. Just have to hope nothing comes back to the school or Self.

@BeddieKU23 Girod and some lower level guys.

@BeddieKU23 The same reason 4 KU people are on the witness list. Preston and De Sousa are involved.

Interesting from Papa Lawson on Chandler...

“I know he likes Kansas, Ole Miss, South Carolina, Georgia Tech and Oregon. We’re going to take visits and from there make a decision,” Keelon said of Chandler Lawson, who is ranked No. 87 in the recruiting Class of 2019 by Rivals.com after playing for state title teams the past three seasons at Memphis East.

Mahomes is so good. Fisher got whipped all game and lost Watkins early.

Admittedly a stupid holding penalty killed the last drive.

Denver D stifling KC. Missing Watkins. Robinson and Conley are not great WRs.

Girod and some other people are on the witness list. I still think nothing really comes of this.

KSU added a couple unranked commits.

Damerius Wash a SG going to Sunrise in Wichita and Antonio Gordon a post player out of Oklahoma.
