Ugly incident in Lawrence as KU basketball and football team brawls on campus

[BleedGopher]

This is UGLY and the entire athletic department in Lawrence is in full crisis mode. I talked a few of my KU SID friends and they indicated that what has gone down is much worse than what is in the media. As of now, three indicdents have been made public, but the show down between the two teams is deeper than these three incidents. The fight on campus was on the most public spot on campus in between class.

It will be fascinating to watch how this plays out and what suspensions come down.

Go Gophers!!

In the words of my coworker "They aren't in a gang, why do they need to battle for turf?"

Good question.

Maybe they were just "jumping in" the Freshmen? To paraphrase one poster on another site "Man, I hope Cole Aldrich didn't hurt anyone"...

Nice facebook updates. I'm happy that he is attending English classes.

Sports radio down here is pretty entertaining right now though!
