What was the final point differential? 6 or 8 points? Yeah, hardly a whooping. Try again.

I really haven’t been paying any ateention to the team, so is there any reason to think we will be at least compeditive this year? Meaning not come in last place in the Big 12?

Short answer, yes. I think Reagan should be a big help. And obviously the QB position has not been good for the past 4 or 5 seasons. Need to see some improvement there. I wonder if what's his name has improved his throwing. He was pretty good last year late in the season at running the read option. Also, recruiting seems to be improving.

Obviously, there are reasons to be skeptical, as well. Personally, I'm viewing this season with guarded optimism. I feel the offseason changes have been good moves and should make an impact. But Weis is in his 3rd year. There is no reason why this team shouldn't win 6 games. Anything less is unacceptable, IMO.

I had this idea of Weise, that he had a good ability to evacuate and coach up QBs but, the results have not matched up very well thus far. Hopefully we will see something different this year. Frankly the expectations for the Football program are very modest but we haven’t even met those since they ran the last mean fat guy out of town.

LOL....
Ah....getting your shit pushed in????
Take a gander....Let me know if this qualifies as "getting
your shit pushed in"

Just curious, and not saying you are completely wrong, but where do your 6 wins come from? Playing at Duke is a loss. That's still a damn good team that returns a lot from 2013. You play 5 Roadies in the B12 including, @WVU, @TT, @BU, @ OU and @ K-State. I don't see a win there, except for maybe WVU. That said, WVU is a 50-50 game, best case. Your B12 road record is awful. You play UT, OSU, ISU and TCU at home. ISU is vulnerable and so is TCU. There's 2 wins there, along with SEMO and probably Central Michigan (who is no slouch). That's 4, maybe 5 wins. You don't think 6 wins is asking for a bit much given the current state of the Program?

Cozart named starting QB.


This is great news....IMO.

Good. Hopefully Jake only plays if he gets injured. No more two quarterback rotation.

Lol you're going to be in for a big surprise then. We aren't a playoff team by any means, but bowl eligibility should be a reachable goal.

We took a step back last year after a senior heavy team the year before. The offensive coaching staff didn't deserve to coach at this level(for the most part), and on top of bad coaching there wasn't much experience. Then to top it off big time injury bug.

Mangino has a hell of a lot potential to play with, especially at WR and RB. Nice prospects at OL and QB too. I think we will be in good shape.

What's with MU pollution in this thread?

Do any KU fans even post in the MU thread? I hope not. Seriously stopped caring about that abortion of an athletic department since it left for the SEC.

Saw that on the news. Probably the best option possible and only a sophomore. Should have a solid run

You are the homer to end all homers, man. Your hoops or football team could be wiped out in a plane crash and you'd pop into this thread to let us know that you have an entire campus full of athletes who were just waiting for their chance.

Hell, the 2012 team nearly beat Texas and OSU at home. There is no reason to assume those are losses. Not saying it will happen but I think there should be some accountability if it doesn't.

I thought that would be the case with the HC's comments the other day.

You're calling me a homer for saying 6 wins is a reachable goal?

I could see if I was saying we WILL win 8 or 9 games, but a shot at 6? Come on your standards aren't that bad now are they?

Guys close to the program thought last years team was arguably the most talented team ever to play in Ames from a raw athletic ability standpoint. Not crazy to think better coaching can get a team with some experience to build on now 6 wins. 49ers a few years ago and Chiefs last year seen what coaching changes can do for talented teams.
