Former KU walk-on Scott Novosel turns experience into book | KUsports.com
“It’s about believing in the power of dreams. It (novel) brings to life the incredible KU tradition. The kid is the Jayhawks’ No. 1 fan. He has this vision of wearing ‘Kansas’ across his chest and befriending these interesting characters. He somehow finds a way to accomplish his dream and ... it’s a true story.”
The list only includes the postseason accomplishments of coaches since the 1984-85 tourney, when the field expanded to 64 teams. Kansas basketball coach Bill Self makes an appearance on the list at No. 11. Self, of course, has guided KU to a pair of Final Fours, in 2008 and 2012, and his ’08 team captured the program’s first national championship in 20 years.

10. Kansas: Only eight years ago, Mark Mangino took Kansas to the Orange Bowl. It seems even more amazing now. The Jayhawks are behind the rest of the league in every area, from attendance to facilities. (Mr. Ed says: I thought our football facilities were supposedly on par with the best of the conference?)

Big 12 title chase just keeps getting better - College Basketball Nation Blog - ESPN
On Wednesday night, No. 19 Baylor won 79-70 at No. 12 Iowa State. In doing so, the Bears handed ISU its first home loss of the season. They solidified their own status as one of the most surprising, impressive and constantly improving teams in the country. They shot the lights out from 3, which is less a noteworthy statistical aberration than an indicator of their chief offensive strength. And the Bears -- however unwittingly -- made it all the more likely Kansas will end the 2014-15 regular season alone atop the Big 12 standings.
Florida St Seminoles vs. Miami (FL) Hurricanes - Recap - February 25, 2015 - ESPN

WATCH: Oregon RHP Josh Graham goes back to catcher roots on pop-up - CBSSports.com
Like many college players, Oregon's Josh Graham is a two-way player, meaning he both pitches and players a position. In his case he's a right-hander and a catcher. In the eighth inning of Friday's game against NMSU, Graham hustled off the mound to catch a pop-up, then his catcher instincts took over and he pulled off his hat as if it was a catcher's face mask.
