Kansas Football
Gotta love the brutal honesty, especially since the players don't seem to mind.
KU running back Sims confident, motivated as senior | KUsports.com
I hope he keeps getting ignored by the media. It will hopefully lead to a monster season.
KU’s Jake Heaps out to prove he can be a top QB | KUsports.com
I have high hopes for him. Had the same for him at BYU when he started there, and I think we can see a similar or better first year here than he had there.

Count 'Em Down: Indispensable players - Men's College Basketball Nation Blog - ESPN
Makes sense if you think about it, but I still have a hard time classifying a player who has never seen the court for us as indispensable, especially with all the other freshman talent we have.
KU basketball notebook: Morris twins runners-up in Vegas | KUsports.com

How has the NCAA not investigated this yet?
P.J. Hairston legal issues hardly North Carolina Tar Heels' biggest - ESPN
And this still looks like it could be a disaster for them.
Ryan Braun barely apologizes, but Rodriguez still looks worse - MLB - Michael Rosenberg - SI.com
After Braun's antics, I'd have to say he still looks much worse. But A-Rod still looks bad.
