JHaWk Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Now that the Jayhawks have one the NC in BBall, I can't wait for football season. I'm sorry I just can't get into baseball season, too much steroid usage (Allegedly), not as exciting as football or basketball, but I am hearing a lot of optimism about the NU program. It is good to know that the Husker tradition is still live and well, but will the team be alive and well this season? I truly am skeptical as to whether my jayhawks can repeat the success of last year, but I was just wondering, is it the tradition that is giving you guys optimism, Bo's attitude, or just blind faith? We shall see... see you in Lincoln, I will be there, always have a good time in Lincoln Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty sure theres a kid from my school going on a full ride to play baseball at kansas Quote Link to comment
austinhusker Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 hey JHawk. An o-lineman i played with this year at Westwood High in austin, TX committed to KU. Perhaps you know him. His name is Trevor Marrongeli. He sure will impress people. Sorry if i kind of thread highjacked. Quote Link to comment
JHaWk Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Yes, he will be coached well by Mangino, just take care of our native boy Blake Lawrence, or so help me... Quote Link to comment

I'm pretty sure theres a kid from my school going on a full ride to play baseball at kansas not saying you're wrong... but are you sure its not just a scholarship? full rides in baseball for freshman are VERY unlikely.. i wouldnt say it'd never happen, but it would be VERY unlikely....

huskernation20 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I like watching Husker Baseball, they are pretty consistent in being a top teir team. I am also anxious to see if the Jayhawks last season wasn't a fluke. I will say they WILL NOT win in Lincoln! GBR!!! Quote Link to comment

Full rides in baseball dont really exist. Its almost all 1/3 rides. Thats the price you pay for being able to jump teams without losing any eligibility. Quote Link to comment

I think KU wins that one. Beating VT in the Orange Bowl should have dispelled the speed thing. And Texas wont shut anyone out this year. Quote Link to comment

The other 4 losses I can agree with, but expect them to play tough against Texas and maybe pull out a W, especially after they were screwed a few years ago. Quote Link to comment
JHaWk Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 We won't lose to USF, and I am picking NU to win against Va TEch so have some faith and dont call our last season a fluke. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 We won't lose to USF, and I am picking NU to win against Va TEch so have some faith and dont call our last season a fluke. I won't call your last season a fluke (or Mizzou's) until this fall when we'll all find out. Quote Link to comment
strigori Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 We won't lose to USF, and I am picking NU to win against Va TEch so have some faith and dont call our last season a fluke. KU wont drop back to 6-6, but I dont think 12-1 is going to happen again either. Quote Link to comment
nufootball06 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I don't see how that season of Kansas was a fluke?? Mangino is a really good coach but i don't think they'll have a better season then last year Quote Link to comment
BOBELIEVER Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 last season wasn't a fluke for Kansas.... it was an easy schedule and they took care of business, plain and simple.. they had a very good team last year, and they proved it with the Orange Bowl win this year's schedule will be much more difficult Quote Link to comment
