Defensive struggles a real concern for third-ranked Kansas | KUsports.com
But it’s not so much the percentages as it is the way the baskets are being scored. Too often, the Kansas defenders let their man drive right by them to the rim. Add to those the missed assignments or trouble following the points of emphasis on the scouting report, and you’ve got arguably the angriest leader of a third-ranked team on a 13-game winning streak in college basketball history.
Once Svi reached the free throw line, where two KSU defenders greeted him and two others trailed closely, it would have been easy for him to (a) decide to throw a lob to Landen Lucas on his left or (b) zip a pass to Josh Jackson on the right for a baseline jumper to win the game.

Kansas Football: Jayhawks Have Blueprint in Recovering From Terrible Seasons | FOX Sports
While 2008 was a great year for Kansas Football, it was an awful year for the Washington Huskies as they finished the season 0-12. While that season was rock bottom, they had finished last or next to last in the last four seasons. That kind of performance may sound all too familiar to Kansas football fans. In fact, Washington was the last Power Five team to go winless until Kansas did it in 2015.

The Unravelling of College Football starts with all these empty stadiums - Bloomberg
Collegiate sports, particularly football, generate revenue in three main ways—media contracts, ticket sales and donations—and falling attendance is a double-whammy to the business model: unsold tickets hurt the bottom line today and deprive schools of alumni donations in the future. Research suggests that when students don't go to games, they're less likely to give money after they graduate.

How Kelly Oubre Jr. infuriated a gym full of strangers in Dallas | 'Hawks in the NBA | KUsports.com
We determined that Kelly Oubre would get the hell out of the way if we just started our game. And that we did. I was on defense and grabbed the first rebound, took the ball up the court, running the wing, passed it to my left as we crossed mid court. Now we had 10 guys running toward Kelly Oubre and his trainer, and what does Kelly Oubre do? He keeps shooting. Doesn’t budge.
