They also ran a story on Kavanough throwing ice!

Throwing ice that sparked a bar fight where someone ended up in the hospital and someone else went to jail.

Kavanaugh showed his temper and character in his hearing when he started yelling at Democratic senators. Last month, some on this board mocked Serena Williams for being a loser and throwing a tantrum at the US Open when she yelled at an umpire.

Oh wait, that was you. Hmmm...

Guess tantrums are okay for SCOTUS justices, but not for pro tennis players. Noted.

@approxinfinity HAHA OK!! I hope liberal keep doing what they do. Let me know how that works out!

@approxinfinity funny how you just dismiss that picture. There is shit like that all social media from nut job liberals.

I can not believe this is even a discussion. It’s laughable. Last year doesn’t matter. Go look at the schedule of UCF. It’s a joke as is this argument.

@Texas-Hawk-10 You don't think a 1 loss Clemson, OU, Texas, and Washington gets in over a undefeated UCF??!!

Go take a look at UCF's schedule. It is trash.

@Texas-Hawk-10 There are a handful if not more of 1 loss teams that would make it over a undefeated UCF team.

UCF is not even part of the conversation.

It would take a miracle for Bama to be in, but all the other teams could be upset. I wouldn't call them locks. I do think Ohio St is the second most talented team, but they could be tripped up. Before the year started majority had Bama, Ohio St. , and Clemson so this isn't a hug surprise really.

Totally forgot Zeke was back this past weekend for his OV. Anyone hear anything on how it went?

I feel like this topic gets discussed once a year and nothing has changed. KU is not going to switch from Adidas and the $190M contract they have offered. Adidas outfits ALL of our sport teams and no other company is going to do that. I don't think people understand how big of a deal that is. KU is not leaving Adidas unless Nike or Under Armour make a earth shattering offer. Plain and simple.

I think Texas could still get in if they ran the table and finished 12-1. So the Big 12 while it might not look good they still have WVU, OU, and Texas with shots of making the playoff.

Tough day for the Peters fan club. Got burnt and given up 3 touchdowns today.

Little interview article on Hurt here.

@approxinfinity wait.. is your take that CNN is not a talking mouth for the left?

I’d almost best he is fired Sunday or Monday. Think that might have always been the plan.

I’m watching but WTF is there to say. Beaty is a complete and utter embarrassment to KU and football as a whole.

Can’t wait. I’ll be out there. Unfortunately I think the rain is going to hinder what the Chiefs can do on offense. Also will hurt skill players as if they get the amount of rain they are calling for the field will be a mess.

Flipping through the channels and see Louisville and Georgia Tech are on. How would people feel about Paul Johnson as a coaching candidate. Seems he is becoming kind of stale at GT and they could move on. Just curious how people would feel with the brand of football he plays. I think he checks a lot of boxes of a coach we need, and his style doesn’t bother me as we need to try something new.

@Kcmatt7 I looked at his page earlier and saw it showed "warm" next to KU which usually means they are still involved. If I remember right there was only 3 schools listed as warm...

Has anyone read anything lately on Precious Achiuwa? I know he is considered a long shot, but was just wondering if he had cut his list at all... Would be nice if Bill could somehow pull that off.

The Democrats would have thrown a fit over anyone that Trump nominated. That seems to be the new thing for them. The damn NY Times ran a article about Kavanaugh throwing ice at someone! Seriously step back and think about that for a minute. It is laughable that people think if Trump and the Republicans nominated someone else that the Democrats wouldn't have found something else to bitch about.

@DoubleDD don’t forget he threw ice at someone !!

@approxinfinity so your problem with him is that he drank too much in college? Or do you believe Dr. Fords testimony that can’t be backed up by anyone...?

Looks like either Drake and JT no showed or that was some bad information...

Sounds like Clay Cunliffe one of our 2 commits is headed to Wisconsin this weekend and is likely to decomitt and commit to the Badgers. That will leave us with one recruit for 2019. Long needs to cut bait ASAP WITH Beaty.

The key to all of this is if there is proof. If not it is just one mans word versus another. So it means nothing.

And if Creighton is out there offering $100K then EVERYONE is cheating!

@Gorilla72 I am just following it on Twitter. Dan Wetzel and Adam Zagoria are both at the trial...

He was paid $5-$8,000 to have his son play for a Nike AAU team.

Brian Bowen Sr. just said in court that he was offered but did not accept money and benefits from Arizona, Okie St., Texas, Creighton, and oregon.

5* Wendell Moore is announcing Monday. Looks like Duke will get on the board in 2019.

Didn't want to start a new thread, but just read that Memphis is bringing in Drake and Justin Timberlake for their late night. That is some heavy hitting. I guess the demand for tickets was so big that they were able to sell them.

No doubt Penny has created a incredible buzz, but time will tell if he can coach.

Here is a little Q&A with JRE

@Kcmatt7 HAHA! You are right. Shit guess I better sign up then. Fantastic news.

I was all set to sign up for the Athletic as I have been thinking about for a while and then they went and signed Jemele Hill.

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...

@BShark but that’s all we will have is Big Dave. I think at this point we have to assume both Silvio and Doke are gone. I think we need to find a center in this class. I think wouldn’t be surprised if they turn the heat up on Cockburn in the coming months hopefully we can get a visit.

@Kcmatt7 not how realistic but I believe we are still on Kofi Cockburns list.

It’s been done to UNC for awhile. He just loves Carolina.

You sure about that??

Josh Green is announcing tomorrow. KU was on his final list but he never visited. Looks to be UNC or Arizona.

I think they should fire him on Monday. I would love to see what this team has without the noose of Beaty around their neck. I don't see any real positives at this point in keeping him around. He can't recruit, coach, and or anything for that matter.

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

I am not going to pretend to understand how any of this plays out. Sounds like Gatto's lawyer came out guns a blazing.

"NCAA rules were broken. We are not going to waste your time pretending these families did not get funds"

@approxinfinity So because the people of Russia don't like us they are going to nuke us? So is that how this works. We should just go around and poll Americans what countries they like and don't like and then nuke the ones we don't?

If I am reading this correctly Gatto is admitting that he / Adidas paid Silvio 20,000$ to go to Kansas.

Why does anyone care what Russians think of us?

Per Dan Wetzel who is covering the trial for Yahoo. During opening remarks Gatto's attorney said that Oregon offered "an astronomical" amount of money to recruit Brian Bowen. The 100,000$ deal to attend Louisville was to "level the playing field"

Also Under Armor paid $20,000 to De Sousa to sign with Maryland and Arizona offered $150,000 for Nassir Little.

His main goal is to make all of college basketball look corrupt not just Adidas...

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

FarmerJayhawk said:

I don’t think we’ll get all 3 because Silvio should be back. But it sounds like he may pop this weekend so we’ll see! Good problem to have.

Call me crazy, but I would wait until JRE and Hurt decide before I take a commitment from someone that might push them away. Those two have been the centerpieces of this 2019 class for sometime now. Not sure why Self and Co would stray away from that.

KU is so far away from hiring a guy of Gus's stature its funny to even see his named mentioned

Reading different message boards, and discussing with friends / other people it blows my mind at the names being thrown out. I have said multiple times that KU people are going to be very dissapointed at the names on the true target list.
