Inside the Igloo: National Championship Edition

ONE SENTENCE GAME RECAP
Saban rips off his clothes and streaks across a smoke-filled field naked but Colt gets hurt then UT does a dead-on impression of KU by giving Alabama a free TD to end the half then decides to make it close for Vegas but caps the whole thing off by offering up another free TD to Alabama to end the game. Congrats Tide.

Inside the Tent: Is Gill My Man & Perkins Tests the Thin Ice

I didn't have a blog back in 2001-2002 when Mark Mangino was hired, but I readily admit I was not excited about the choice. No, it didn't have anything to do with his weight. I did not want a member of Bill Snyder's coaching tree. I did not want ties to Kansas State. If we had success, I did not want KSU fans holding it over our heads that we had to go within their family to build a program. At the time, I didn't know they had a deep hatred of Mangino as the supposed orchestrator of the great as… Continue

FROM ROW 9, CONCRETE HELL
What a dumb way to lose a game. The real problem with Mangino-gate is that it confuses the issue of the on-the-field performance. It's pretty much always been a given that every KU football coach is literally one home loss to Missouri away from losing his job. The Arrowhead deal has maybe given both Mark Mangino and Gary Pinkel a sense of security in that respect. Still, let me just try to evaluate the football performance minus the political circus.

Around the Big 12: Week #12

1 (A+ 97%) Texas 11-0, 7-0
Smooth sailing at they head into College Station favored by 22-1/2 points.
(HD Weekly Rank: 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1)

2) (B+ 89%) Oklahoma State 9-2, 6-1
Struggled with Colorado in Stillwater but won 31-28 -- that was weird. OSU travels to OU with a shot at a BCS bowl. No line on the game yet.
(HD Weekly Rank: 2-7-6-6-6-5-2-2-3-2-2-2)

3) (B+ 88%) Texas Tech 7-4, 4-3
A really nice rebuilding year for the Red Raiders. Nine wins still possible as they head to Waco for a… Continue

FROM THE BASEMENT
If we didn't have the whole Lew vs Mangino backdrop for the game, I'd be kicking off today's post by stating that this is not where I expect to be in year eight. A six-game losing streak and the fact that we did not look to be in the same league as Texas ... except, we sort of did. Up front, we ran the ball fairly well. At times, Reesing was under heat, but other times our offense was clicking and he seemed to have adequate time to operate. Dezmon Briscoe certainly fit i… Continue

I kinda like having the pics in the corner...not that there is anything wrong with them, but I think it leaves the focus on the banner and people can immediately see the articles and discussions. I think that in the off season it is cool to move it back to center-mass because there may not always be a lot to fill the pages, but during season...it will be hard not to post TOO MUCH stuff.

That sounds excellent to me. I hope I can at least be of some use to the site you've got going here. KU needs more great fans like you guys interested in networks like this!

Hmm, I gotta admit I gotta pretty full plate. I was just chosen as the featured columnist for KU football at bleacher report and am an R.A. at KU in Oliver hall, but what's mine is yours and I will post all of my KU football stuff in the discussions (or am I supposed to use the blog tool?) for you! I just did a preview of fridays game!

Yeah...that's a tough challenge but I'll keep working on him. Site looks great!

Turner Gill confirmed CB Dave Clark, QB Quinn Mecham and the return of LB Vernon Brooks. Good news in three areas of need. http://www2.kusports.com/news/2010/jan/05/ku-coach-gill-officially-announces-two-signings/

That was a pretty easy choice and a nice little result. Of course, playing Navy is pretty much a no-win situation for anyone. Good hearing from you guys ... Happy New Year, looks like I survived the evening.

Our four-star CB is on board. This is much better news than having Parish arrested. http://www2.kusports.com/news/2009/dec/31/ku-lands-four-star-cornerback/

Wow. It kind of felt like a possible shift occurred when ManginoGate was announced ... http://www2.kusports.com/news/2009/dec/28/texas-tech-suspends-leach-university-will-investig/

Grissom to OU would be pretty disappointing -- again, mainly from just a pride/prestige factor of keeping the best KU players in state.

This is really coming together pretty fast ... which is nice.

I agree about timing of the conference contracts -- I think it's just putting pressure on the Big 12 to land that huge TV package. And the disparity isn't as significant as it is played out be, but I still wonder about what happens when we triple or…

I think that if you go back about 2 or 3 years (I haven't had a chance to yet) you will see that the Big 10 and the SEC were pretty much on par with everyone else. People make it sound as if this disparity has been happening for decades...it hasn't.…

A thread on phog brought up the un-equal revenue share in the Big 12. As you can see, KU is actually doing pretty well under the current system: 1. Texas: $10.2 million 2. Oklahoma: $9.8 million 3. Kansas: $9.24 million 4. Texas A&M: $9.22 million…

Yep, KUSports has it this morning as well: http://www2.kusports.com/news/2009/dec/21/gill-adds-mitchell-ku-football-staff/ Man, this looking like a great staff.

Tim Griffin's take: "It's a significant get for the Jayhawks. And it proved that Gill wasn't just providing lip service when he mentioned recruiting four times among his first seven priorities for the program." http://espn.go.com/blog/big12/tag/_/
