    Weis???

    I won't bore everybody (except Duncan) about what it means to be a Kansas Jayhawk fan. I realize that we each have our own favorite college football team and such, but what are the dynamics of these guys' propensity to win football games. Last year, I was in a quandary. as a father of 2 kids in Northern Illinois, I wanted to see Kansas annihilate the Huskies on the field or I wanted to see NIU win the game. Neither happened. They spent the whole game trading leads and Kansas won in the end, but just barely. I told my Jayhawk fan friends that this, the second game of the season, was the last, and indeed it was. The Jayhawks did not enter another "W" all season long.

    Enter Charlie Weis as Kansas coach. Enter TCU into the Big 12. Enter West Virginia into the Big 12. Exit Missouri from the Big 12. Exit Texas A&M from the Big 12.

    What happens now? Will Weis make a positive change to the Jayhawk winability? Can he bring the wisdom of a perennial winning school to the hills of Lawrence, KS? Will getting rid of Missouri and Texas A&M and replacing them with West Virginia and the TCU horny toads help Kansas to more victories?

    Wife and I have tickets to the football game between Kansas and NIU this year. I am sure Kansas will win this one. I hope it is a better season for the Jayhawks.

    Compare notes. Look to the future. Wonder what will transpire. You have Colorado moving to the Pac 12 and not doing well last year. What are your thoughts on that? Why would that happen? Did the Buffs put themselves in over their heads? Are they not yet ready for prime time?

    EEWWW, Charlie Weis is Kansas coach?

    If he couldn't win at Notre Dame with their national recruiting, what makes him think he can win at Kansas? And, no, it's not an academic standards issue. Notre Dame and Stanford always roll out that nonsense, but they always manage to get the blue chippers into school if they're good enough football players.

    Weis is a great assistant coach and coordinator. He's NOT a good head coach.

    The only thing Kansas is doing is giving Notre Dame an offset on the stupid contract extension they gave Weis.

    Don't expect any miracles, Jerry, because they won't happen.

    Don't make me cry Janet.

    Maybe I should pick a new school to cheer for? Go Texas. Yeah.

    I care very little about this circus of warrior sports.

    The title of the thread is my last name.

    My reaction is, "you called me, what do you want"?

    Sorry Charlie. Only the worst coaches get the nod for Kansas.

    Uh, no. And the intent was not to rain on your parade.

    Let's see, didn't Northern Illinois end Northwestern's record losing streak? I seem to recall something like that.

    I still hold an interest. I think it's more due to my complete and total boredom right now.
