Lew Perkins Makes Almost As Much As Mack Brown
Perkins is the Kansas Athletics Director, and the Kansas City Stars reports that thanks to a one-time retention bonus, Pekins made 4.4 million in 2009. Most of the bonus came from Kansas Athletics Inc a non-profit corporation that oversees University Athletics. Only about $200,000 of his 2009...
KU Football Job Search
KU has completed their interviews and I'd expect them to make a move within the next three weeks. Our friends at Oread Boom Kings have the skinny on the replacement for the Fat Man. According to the estimable HipHop, the preferential public pecking order appears to be: Harbaugh Holtz Gill I like...
Mangino resigns
Teh link. The AD told the players at a meeting last night, and at least one player was, for lack of a better word, sad. "There's definitely a little sadness in it," Kansas defensive back Justin Thornton said. "When I get old and I'm telling stories about my KU football career, I'm going to be...
2009 Kansas Post-Mortem
This was a methodical win, a great celebration of our seniors and Colt’s place in history; and I saw some encouraging things, particularly on offense. I’m less interested in breaking down every aspect of this game than in using this game as a basis for evaluating some of the good and bad things we...
Texas - KU Open Thread
Watch as the Reesing Shi Tzu is thrown into a wolf's den and lay odds as to whether Mark Mangino may be fired during the halftime sideline reporter interview. Enjoy.
Musings on Mangino: Part II

Musings on Mangino: The Future of KU Football
Our KU friend Hiphopopotamus free-styled some brilliance on this subject yesterday and it's an absolute must-read if you want to understand why Mangino's days are numbered. KU AD Lew Perkins (himself a former 400 pounder - what is the Jayhawk fascination with gluttony?) is making a paper trail...
Looking @ KU
Before I get into the matchups on the field, here's an exchange from Mangino's presser: On whether he has had any discussions with KU AD Lew Perkins pertaining to the meeting: "Yes, I had a brief meeting with him. If you want to know what was said, I’m not disclosing it. He’s...
Kansas Jayhawks Football Players Meet with AD — Without Mark Mangino
Seems there is a little unrest up in Kansas as the Jayhawks get ready to visit Austin. Some of the players met with the Athletics Director Monday night, and they didn't invite Head Coach Mark Mangino to tag along. KU Athletics Director Lew Perkins has issued a release, stating: I can confirm an...
How badly does the $EC want an undefeated team?
Apparently bad enough that conference officials are deciding the outcomes of games. During undefeated LSU's game against Georgia on October 3rd, the officials incorrectly flagged Georgia with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after they took the lead with a little over a minute to play. LSU got...
