Haven't seen it yet, I don't think they announced last years until during the week. If I remember correctly they brought in mumble rapper Lil Yachty. Good for the kids.

ya I can't remember when they announced last year , they just need to come up with something that recruits can relate with. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ok , this is getting out of hand. • Sep 24, 2018 04:45 PM

Just read a pretty good article on this whole dam thing written by Kevin Bailard . Brought out some very good points some of what he said :+1:

" The NFL has developed a serious officiating problem " He says people just want something familiar, the version of football America loved and avidly consumed for generations. Now for many players the situation could not be more frustrating , as many of them are just trying to do their jobs. What was once routine plays are now being penalized with 15 yard infractions.

He says and which I agree 100 % The NFL is trying to remove violence from an inherently violent sport , and were sometimes left with a product that is unrecognizable. He says many fans feel Clay Mathews frustration , with some of these calls , it's starting to feel like the officials play a larger role on the outcome of a game then the players themselves. - Clay says he feels that the NFL is trying to take this game and move it in a direction that many don't like. - He says he feels they are getting soft. ( Reference the flag football lol )

What once was a routine sack or hit on a QB is now a 15 yard infraction - -- a fresh set of downs. - - -Last year no one knew what a CATCH was, - - THIS YEAR - no one knows what a legal sack is

Their asking players to change what they have done their entire lives , what your going to have is Coach's are going to get to the point - -players are going to get to a point that they are going to be afraid to call a blitz - or carry out a blitz - these players are getting fined thousands of dollars for trying to do their jobs

definitely more concerned after seeing some social media stuff- in regards to JRE.. Hope its nothing

KU better knock this weekend out of the park with him or I think we lost him to Roy.

To me. - -I'm not really concerned about Arizona , so basically for all intents and purposes well as far as I look at it anyways is , we ARE his last visit. - Like you said we have to just totally hit it out this weekend , which I believe they will. I know UNC is stiff challenge but I still think in the end he still has a lot of connections here to KU right? - I mean countless games he has come to he knows how the fan base is insane - -the atmosphere. UNC has nothing on us in tradition. Ya sure they have won a few more championships - but we are right there as far as development of players , and players in the NBA -I think his mom went here to school didn't she? - -Lester played here , ya he played under ROY but still he played at KU , I'm quite sure JRRE has plenty of friends still here that are in his ear too about playing at KU.

Still we got work to do , I'm nervous but yet I STILL think he will end up here , won't be easy - - So what media stuff have you been seeing that concerns you about JRE & UNC ? -- ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ok so now I'm speaking out. Everyone here knows that I'm a Breen Bay - I caught hell about it people pretty much talking smack and such because yes I happen to like Teams that had glory or won quite a bit in the past. - -Pretty much a cherry picker I guess what people were trying to say - -to which I say in response screw that think what you want I could give a rats ass le give me hell cause I like the Yankees - -give me hell cause I've been a Packer fan since I was a kid - that's ok I'm a big boy I can take it. - But what I'm here for to speak out about has nothing to do with that - what I'm pissed about is this:

This rule that the NFL is trying to enforce this year has become a complete farse - -a fricken joke. - Are you fricken kidding me ? - The call they made today on Clay Matthews was just total bullshit. That was a classic sack nothing more then that - -excellent play and they call roughing the passer - -BULLSHIT. - Now the other two that Clay has had called - -ok maybe possibly , I was pissed at hell at him for the call on him against Minnesota - -he cost us huge in that game - -but TODAY? there is no fricking way that call should be made - this is getting insane. -Clay voiced his opinion on it after the game if you haven't seen it you can watch it on ESPN repay of the play - that was a football hit - nothing intentional about trying to hurt Smith at all. Clay spoke out about how the NFL is trying to change things and he is far from alone as a lot of other players are very unhappy on this.

The way the rule reads as they stated " The defender lands with all or most of the defenders weight on the passer" - -Well what in the hell do you think will happen? - -He is coming in full speed on a bliz - hits him square tackles him and takes him to the ground. - There is no melacious intent there it's a FOOTBALL play. - We all get that they are trying to protect their QB'S, but they are tying the defense hands this crap is crazy - -how is a guy suppose to ease up from a full blitz? - Like Clay saidif he wanted to if he was trying to take him outhe could of went a little different- -says it's confusing.

Clay says our ( Green Bay's QB Aaron gets suflexed earlier in the game by a Washington player and nothing gets called and yet they penalize Clay late? - They asked the referee about the Rodgers hit and he says he couldn't see through 14 players - -get the hell out of here with that shit - your in the same backfield as Clays hit was later wasn't you? - You not in position in the Rodgers hit? - - - Clay says it's really confusing for the defense. He says I've been playing this game for over 20 years and now we have to learn new - -He said I made a football play that's it - -It's a bunch of crap PERIOD

I understand his legal issues had a bearing on his recruitment for 2019; however, people have short memories, with another year gone and if he shots up in the rankings, KU is back in play.

Other than that OU game, KU needs to be able to stay with everyone in conference, and they need to find wins against some of those lower teams, and maybe upset somebody along the way.

KU isn't as high as their current stats suggest, but they should still be in the middle of the pack in terms of defense. They have some playmakers on that side of the ball, which can cover up some things. It also positions them for an upset - a couple key takeaways against a team like TCU or Texas could help swing that game in KU's favor.

I will give Beaty credit for upgrading athleticism on that side of the ball. But he still needs results to back that up.

I agree with you buddy. I was thinking the same thing. I mean now that we have reached conference ,I just don't feel that we are going to continue to get the take aways at the same rate. - - I'm worried about our secondary and match up with receivers like Baylor has - -I feel things are going to go up. - -BUT even so if we can at least say be in the middle of the pack to say even third or 4th ya know. I DO NOT believe we will be at the very bottom in defense. - -Dineen is really good , Lee is pretty decent. The big thing I think is - -we have JUST GOT TO get -- sacks more pressure on the other teams QB"S We can not afford to allow them to stand back there and pick us apart. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I know it's still early guys but ? • Sep 20, 2018 12:10 PM

Guys I know , I fully understand it's early and we really haven't played any true competition , well for us in the past it would of been but with the improvement it's been a different story sooo my question is:

Has our Defense gotten that much better? - -Has Clint Bowen finally really gotten these guys to come together/play better or is it that these teams we played just that bad - just suck?

I read an article and throwing out some stats for you to look at How we compare with other BIG12 teams so far:
Total Defense: - - 294.3 yards per - - - # 1
Scoring Defense: - - 15.7- -- # 2
Passing Defense:- - 147.7- - # 1
Interceptions:- - - - - - 7 (next closest ) 3- - # 1
Fumbles Rec : - - - 6 ( next closest ) 3- - # 1
Total takeaways : - - 13 ( next closest )- 5
4th down defense : - - 0 - 1st downs given up ( however only 2 chances taken by opp ) - -# 1

Now on a little less favorable note: Against the run we are 6th in the league.
Recording Sacks:- - - - We are 8th in the league ( we just have to get more pressure or we going to be ate alive )
3rd down effeciency :- - We are 6th in the league - ( got to improve )

KU currently sits # 2 in conference in time of possession
KU currently sits # 1 in fewest TO'S
KU currently sits # 5 in punting ( could use improvement )

Like I say guys - -very true & the competition has been umm to say the least - not the best BUT for a team of ours that has struggles over the years like we have I just have to think that yes this defense has improved and I think quite a lot and we bask Clint quite abit - -so in return I think he deserves a little credit at the same time -this door swings both ways ya know? I like the way they ballhawk seem to be a pretty aggressive unit this year - - After two weeks Pro Football Focus has KU graded out as the 2nd best defense. I realize against better competition going to be a lot harder but I do see improvement - -we shall see how they stand up - -hoping for the best. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well here we are , the prelims are over - -it's test time. the big question will be answered or at least a pretty good idea , Has KU improved any ? - -OR did our Non Con just really suck? - -Myself personally , I think a little of both , we are showing signs of some improvement - I think we can all agree Pooka is the real deal - -now it's time to text that next step.

Having said that , and I'm hoping for a win yet I think some how Baylor will probably be fired up after their display last Saturday - -their fans NOT HAPPY and many think or are worried about this game with us, BUT I'm afraid our secondary is gonna have matchup problems with their receivers. Their QB is the backup QB that came in last year and ate us alive Sooo

My prediction is: - --Baylor 34 - - KU 21 - - -hope I'm wrong - --ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

stoptheflop said:

It's great what the two wins have done for KU football fans. KU is a 7 and a half point underdog at Baylor. We may actually talk about a W in Waco. Starting QB Bender is going to have to throw the ball some to keep Baylor's defense honest. What's up with Sims and his drops? I hope Meacham and Beaty are working hard on the medium level passes, 8-12 yds. Baylor and the rest of the BIG 12 will load the box to stop the rush, so Bender's passing and our receivers's catching must improve. I'm actually looking forward to the Baylor challenge rather than dreading it like years' past.

I agree with you about actually looking forward to a game on a Saturday instead of dreading another beating. - -How long has it been since I've been able to say that? lol - Now in the end run we may get our butt's stomped - - AGAIN in Big 12 play but I truly feel we might be a little more competitive this year time will tell , but at least it's cool to actually have a little something positive to say about KU football.

Plus this kid is fast and man does he like to get out and drive the ball to the hole - not afraid of contact at the rim , great court vison - -that's my boy lol - -I think like I said it's going to be really hard to keep him out of that starting role. Thing is though like has been said before , doesn't matter who really starts - - it's who is on the floor at crunch time - -that critical part of a game. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Well I won't be mad adding a developmental PG. Perfect time to add one if we don't think Dotson is going to be here 4 years.

There is almost no chance Dotson is a 4 year guy.

Scenario: open scholarship, Vick graduates, Dedric, Grimes, Doke and Silvio all leave early.

Dream class: Braun, McBride, Stanley, Chandler, JRE, Hurt.

And feel free to sub Kai Jones for JRE or Hurt.

McBride, Braun and Stanley is a nice group for the perimeter. Stanley comes in and starts at the 2G replacing Grimes while McBride and Braun don't mess up the minutes for incumbent playes and can take time to develop. I really really like McBride assuming he keeps developing.

I don't think Devon is here for 4 years - - -more like 3 - I don't see him as a 2 yr player but neither 4. Man wouldn't that be a sweet haul the one's you mentioned?- - - -Like others say if we could get Silvio to come back for a JR year - and then have either or Hurt or Robinson Earle -- I'll take the JR DeSousa over 2 5 star freshman - -and if it came to that - I personally as much as I like JRE'S game - -I still almost think I'd rather take Hurt & DeSousa - other then JRE & Silvio - - - Would be nice to pick up McBride as a solid 4 year pg also. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I just don't see how you keep him out of the starting line up for very long - -very long at all. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
