Lance will bail IMO based on “lack of fan support”. JD needs to become a RB or WR. Ballard to QB? Defense - how do you fix something that broken?

Now 1-3. This season held such promise. Another 4th qtr collapse.
Up to the D now.
Gotta admit, I have pretty low expectations. JD throws the ball very hard, making it hard to catch. Run game has to work. D has to stop WV run game.
Expectations were so high…. Daniels is lost. Why can’t KU football have nice things?
Just saw a Tweet that said 6 turnovers by Jalon Daniel’s in the last 100 minutes of football. What’s going on?
Same stupid stuff before the half.
Listening via KU Athletics. It’s a play ahead of ESPN+. At least I know what’s going to happen and can watch for it. Announcers are better too!
Two turnovers already.
Looks like the angry Jayhawk on the sleeve. Love it!
Also, per CBS Sports, Bean “injured his shoulder on his one-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter of the Colts' preseason finale against the Bengals on Thursday. If he clears waivers, Bean could be invited back by Indianapolis to be on the practice squad, or he could look to take his talents elsewhere.”
Per CBS Sports, “ If the tight end clears waivers, his most likely next move will be joining the practice squad with New Orleans.”
@wissox - interesting find! Can you link the tweet or at least who posted it?
@mayjay - Yogi’s biography is a great read!
@Jhawk69 - Actually yesterday for soccer and a few others started yesterday and today. Already a big issue on one soccer game. Friday night is the the big parade.
@approxinfinity - assumed name of Furry Jonphy?
@FarmerJayhawk - IIRC, that “beating up on MIAA schools” gave them most of the money for their athletic department budgets. That will be hard to replace if discontinued.
@jayballer67 - It appears 3 of their best 5 players are centers. How do they all of them on the floor at once? I suppose one could play the “4” but Big12 caliber 4’s are generally pretty fast. It will be interesting to see what Tang does with these guys when the conference season rolls around.
@rockchalkwyo - he was born 2006, so he’s 18 now. I assume this year’s class not next. No idea regarding the pro issue.
Horrible news about EJ! Hope he duly recovers!
Any chance Noah Shelby drops his redshirt (or does he play off ball)?
So no Furphy. I heard Jaxson Robinson stayed in the draft. Most draft withdrawals are either returning to their school or looking for starter minutes, IMHO.
I wonder what HCBS is planning?
Apparently he stuttered as a child. Paraphrasing , he once said, “My greatest accomplishment was learning to speak - and your greatest nightmare.” RIP, Bill.
Storr has withdrawn from the NBA draft and is coming to KU.

@Crimsonorblue22 - That is a great response! Why can’t more people respond like this instead of denigrating the man because they have a different belief? Sheesh.
@patoh3 - Oh. Oops.
Furphy has been invited to the NBA draft combine along with Jalen Wilson.
@BeddieKU23 - ‘Splain please
How do we feel about rebounding next year?
@FarmerJayhawk said in Portal/transfer , now THIS would P - - - me off if true.:
It was more nobody on our squad transferred
But he already had a spot didn’t he?
Just curious, but has Philon officially been granted his release from the LOI?
Maybe I missed it. Is Jordan Quintance on the KU radar? He’s only 16 (?) so he had 2 years NCAA ball at a minimum. 6’9” 4 or 5. He was committed to Kentucky. 5*
@BeddieKU23 - Roach is the guy Hunter Dickinson was “recruiting” via X. HD posted a picture under his name and stated “Jayhawk”. Was Roach contacted byKU?
@mayjay - I’m of the opinion most FedEx trucks are lost which is why you see them driving around so much. Timely deliveries aren’t their forte in my experience.
“ FedEx has announced a massive $25 million name, image and likeness investment in Memphis athletics that will fund $5 million in NIL contracts over each of the next five years in key sports while promoting the company. The deal is believed to be the biggest corporate NIL partnership of its type in college athletics.” Coupled with other NIL funds, Memphis is now a bigger player.
Also, “On Thursday, safety Akili Hubbard entered the portal and on Friday defensive end Davion Westmoreland and running back Red Martel went into the portal, sources tell 247Sports.” Is there that much depth at these positions? I know RB is good.
Red Martel, freshman RB entering the portal? He’s been there 3 months.
@jayballer67 - 9 hours ago, Kugel reposted Bossi’s Tweet about Storr commiting. Lots of KU stuff on his X account.
We hardly knew ye, Johnny…
So Furph declared for the draft while maintaining his college eligibility. Said some very nice things about KU. I can’t link via the apps.
@JAYHAWKFAN214 - can you just tell us what it said? I don’t follow him on Instagram.
@Woodrow - Thanks. I just looked it up too. Getting lazy. 😢
But UK is THE dream job. Their fans must be beside themselves.
Have the rules changed? It used to be when you hired an agent, you had to stay in the draft.
@dylans - I’m aware of that. Just saying Kansas was well and truly screwed but he is now free to attend another school and may do well. I wonder what their fans will say. I don’t know if he is truly guilty or not. It’s now played out and he has no charges against him.
Maybe NLI can get Furphy big bucks when KU plays out of the country! HA!
@Texas-Hawk-10 - Yes it can be interpreted in many ways. Most on here considered him guilty.
@benshawks08 said in Arterio Morris:
@Gorilla72 could be interpreted but definitely does not MEAN innocent.
I understand and agree. Although, I wonder if he’ll show back up in Div 1 somewhere now. Good player some coach might take a flyer on.
Read a couple of articles today saying Furphy may drop to early 2nd round and McCullar to late first. Furphy dropped because of his late season woes and McCullar due to injury.
😖 Hawks could have used him last year and now to hear he wouldn’t have been charged. Insufficient evidence can be interpreted as “innocent”.
