KU ***** OFFICIAL 2015 KANSAS FOOTBALL THREAD ***** - Page 47

Let's go...

Rob Likens (Offensive Coordinator)

"Rob has been a major player in some of the best offenses in the history of college football,” Beaty said of his new OC, who enjoyed great success at Louisiana Tech and helped lead Cal's 2013 offense to several school records and put the 2014 version in the Top 10 nationally. “I have always been a fan of Rob's ability to develop players who produce at a high level. Rob has learned from some of the best in the country and is as fine of an offensive mind as I have been around. Rob is a man of integrity and character and I cannot wait for our team to be able to benefit from his wisdom."

Zach Yenser (Offensive Line - Run Game Coordinator)

A source with knowledge of the rest of the Kansas University football coaching staff told The Journal-World on Tuesday night that Cal assistant coach Zach Yenser would join Beaty's staff as the offensive line coach and run game coordinator.

Cal coach Sonny Dykes later confirmed the news via a statement given to Cal's Rivals.com site.

Clint Bowen (Defensive Coordinator)

Je'Ney Jackson (Strength and Conditioning)

"Je'Ney brings a great familiarity with the University of Kansas as well as a wealth of experience in the strength and conditioning world," Beaty said. "His ability to develop and relate to our players will be a large part of our initiative moving forward. He is widely regarded as one of the top coordinators in this field. He is without a doubt, my most important hire and we are honored to have him here."

Kevin Kane (Linebackers)

"I always admired Kevin as a player, but I am even more impressed with his ability to teach and develop young players. He is a tireless recruiter and he is as well thought of in the Kansas City community as anyone I know. He will bring an energy and toughness to our team that we will all benefit from. It has been fun watching his linebackers play over the years and I'm glad that he is now coaching our guys.”

Calvin Thibodeaux (Defensive Line)

"His players exhibit responsibility, toughness and passion and we are looking forward to him bringing those elements to KU. His ability as a coach is only surpassed by his upstanding character and integrity as a man."

Klint Kubiak (Wide Receivers)

"He is as hard of a worker as I have ever seen in our profession. His ability to connect with his players in the NFL and at Texas A&M has been impressive to watch. Our wide receivers will benefit greatly from his experience."

Gene Wier (Director of High School Relations)

"Not only is he fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming a Jayhawk, but he will certainly add a much-needed element to our staff. His long-standing relationships with the great coaches of the state will allow us to better understand and serve our coaches."

My god, what an era. My KSU buddies just choose to ignore that period of time. That said, I don't think there's a single KSU fan out there jealous of anything KU football has ever done. I know that a lot of KU fans like to post the series records, but really, the only thing that matters in sports is what has happened the last 10-15 years.

I'd certainly take what Snyder/KSU has done over that period of time than anything we've done. Yes, the Orange Bowl was nice and shouldn't be slighted, but at some point, "Orange Bowl, Orange Bowl, Orange Bowl" trash talk gets old. Hoping that Beaty can pull off half the job Snyder did at KU.

As for you Rusty, just shut the **** up. You're the dumbest poster on this board and it's not particularly close. You root for a team that hasn't done anything of significance, ever, in any major/relevant sport.

Oh, no doubt. I would gladly take for KU what Snyder has done at KSU. He's a future HOFer without a doubt. I have no problem admitting that.

Who cares what Old Balls Snyder "achieved"? He never won anything of importance outside of that Fiesta Bowl in 1997. He beat OU in 2003 but his team shouldnt have even made that game, promptly got thrashed in their bowl....and OU played for the NC anyway.

Life for any of these regional fanbases - apart from KU - has been mostly garbage. The exception are the CornNubbers but now they're basically KSU or Mizzou in sports now and have been, and will be. Sucks for them!

Not me.

Sports are about achieving greatness and living to see it.

Mangino, Reesing, and the entire KU 2007 Football Team did that which is something no team from Kansas State has ever done.

We won an Orange Bowl. I have a hard time calling that greatness. Was it a good achievement for the program? Absolutely.

Greatness in collegiate sports is National Championships or perhaps even undefeated regular seasons. Winning a BCS bowl game was awesome, but it's certainly not greatness.

When it's only Kansas fans who think I'm the dumbest poster, I'm pretty sure it's just you being butthurt when Iowa State beats you. Especially when it's in "your sport".

My parents still live there so I have seen first hand. Looks like shopping capital of the region with a palace for a high school. Where I went to high school is a junior high now. Crazy.
