Taylor donated to the renovated and expanded Taylor Center two decades ago. Has he shown any interest since? Brennan (cable exec) donated for MSU's top notch hoops arena but same question? I agree that there just isn't going to be community and alumni support. While I noted above that...

2023 Drake also lost to NAIA Northwestern although, again to be fair, NAIA offers scholarship dollars.

To be fair, Sioux Falls offers scholarships for FB while UST does not. But the Pioneer model might be the future for a lot of FCS schools.

Bethany doesn't have a FB team.

What's your point?

Being a pre-med major doesn't mean a person will be accepted into med school. Every now and again, we hear about athletes who come out of school pre-med taking their shot in the pros with eventual plans to return to med school. Does anyone know of any examples where this has actually happened...

Agreed. The sightlines suck for the most part. If you're low, the rake is shallow. If you're up high, you're far away.

Anyway, good for KU. I wish KU and the donor all the success and happiness. I give a significant portion of my earnings to charity and no doubt many soft tyrants would second guess the object of my bounty and the same can be said for any charitable giving by any donor. Someone else always...

I think I read $75 million is going towards the stadium/stadium district and the balance to create a revenue stream for KU athletics. For so long, donors were pushed for brick and mortar projects. But the push now is for athletic endowments.

Those are it. Love the rusty maroon. Glad to have finally ditched the eggplant maroon.

Yes. Bring back proper kickoffs and kick returns. Enough with the gimmicks. Its football. Its violent. Let them play.

For those of you eagerly checking in, the UMAC historically does not release its preseason poll until the end of August. By historically, I mean 2024.

Sure. Last year Rypien was the odd man out. Nick Mullens was on the 53 man and Daniel Jones was in the practice squad, but promoted to the active roster for the playoffs. Jaren Hall was cut to make room for Rypien. The Vikings had draft capital in Hall like they do in Howell so anything is...

Having only seen preseason garbage time out of Rypien and Brosmer and taking into account unverifiable scuttlebutt from camp, at this point in camp, the roster could be JJ, Howell, Max. But, keep in mind that KOC likes a veteran project. If there is a Darnold/Daniel Jones type that comes...
