I hear you man.
It takes a special kind of person to go on message boards and spread toxic negativity at every single turn. In those cases you’re usually dealing with a person that is not happy or lost in life. I’ve always viewed it as a cry for help more than anything.
As the saying goes, how you do one thing is how you do everything.
If you can’t control it, just ignore it.
I don't think it's their best offense, rather it can (and probably should) be a weapon for them. They are adept at running the ball in general and think they will be able to do so against us. Our rushing defensive numbers look really good but we've done that against mostly crap competition. KU is really only the second good offensive team we've played (OSU is rounding in to form but we caught them at the perfect time) and suspect this will be a game where we get gashed on the ground.
I think we will have our opps offensively and think Rocco will have chances to hit big plays. But will he? It's the one area of his game, relative to the rest, that's been somewhat disappointing. I also suspect we will have one of our better (if not the best) rushing performances of the season.
Using a game thread, of all things, as proof? Most posts in the game thread are "negative" and that's not just isolated to myself.
Purchase's effort was really weird. Was he straight up scared to tackle Pendergrass? He usually does not shy away from tackling and I would normally consider him to be strong in run support.
Maybe you should reflect on the bolded, and stop telling everybody else "how it really is".
An example of unwarranted negativity: I mentioned that we switched to a 3-1-7 on 3rd down and long. You responded by saying "as long as the DB isn't Surges"...
You decided to take a shot at one of our players right off the bat instead of addressing the strategy itself.
And that was from a game where we were in the lead for 57 minutes.
Daniels is making a ton on NIL now and will play this year but I don't think it will be this week. He's just not ready yet. I bet it's next week. Leipold is currently making 5 mill and probably will get another raise this year and KU has a very good NIL program LL is taking advantage of. Plus he's had a hand in the new stadium. Unless some monster job that is considered top 10 offers, I don't think he's going anywhere. My pic is ISU on Saturday. KU struggles on the road and ISU is extremely tough at home at night games. Should be a good one, much better than some decades ago when both teams were not good.
Why would daniels not just redshirt? Hes worth more in NIL if he has more eligibility
He already has a year left. He wants to play in the NFL. He needs to have a year that he can stay healthy. Hopefully next year.
Yes but if he redshirts then he has an additional year...
He is not a good enough passer to play in the NFL
He has a 74.7 completion % 5 TD's , 1 pic and a huge arm. If he can stay healthy next year and with almost everyone returning he could put up huge numbers. His problem is he hasn't been able to stay healthy.
Daniels has played his last snap in a jayhawks uniform. If he doesnt come back this year, he will transfer.
Ah, yes. I forgot how all decent college QB's have success in the NFL...
I know folks are hoping for the black uniforms Saturday night, but I'd love to see our guys bust out the Jack Trice uniforms again. This is the Trice anniversary year and it would be great to get some Trice exposure on national TV. Also, I know Mr. Trice would be smiling down upon our guys, so we might get a few favorable bounces.

Simple. Kansas is in the way. Kansas must be destroyed.
