KU ATHLETICS

✦ KU MEN'S HOOPS -
No real news this morning.

✦ KUFB -
No real news here, either, except that as the high school recruiting fades it looks as if KU will be hitting the portal harder than anticipated to cover some still open position holes (e.g., need more wide receivers, the HS guys are choosing other schools).

ELSEWHERE -
• ESPN.com: Who should coach USMNT next? 16 replacements for Berhalter
• And for all the Chiefs fans out there...
ESPN.com - Adam Teicher: QB Carson Wentz embracing new role as Patrick Mahomes' backup

The Lawrence forecast from Accuweather.com:
Today: Mostly cloudy. Hi: 87° F (30.6° C)
Tonight: Partly cloudy but for a thunderstorm in spots this evening. Lo: 62° F (17.2° C)
Chance of precipitation: 1% during the day, 40% overnight.

That is all for now.

Hope you have a GREAT day!

ROCK CHALK!

✦ Thought for the Day
"Two things people throughout history have had in common are hatred and humor. I am proud that I have been able to use humor to lessen people's hatred."
- Richard Pryor

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain "Innocents Abroad"

I can't help it.

Every time -- EVERY time, ANYWHERE -- I see "Phog" or " KU" and "88" on the same line I break out into a huge, happy, goofy grin.

ROCK CHALK, JAYHAWKS!
