He's lost a lot of weight.

Two commitments in two days. Holani would be Beaty's second highest ranked recruit to date.

WOW KU got six 3 stars and the rest all 2 stars.

I guess you have to go with what you can get. Look at the Iowa Hawkeyes, they've recruited about as bad as KU has the last 4-5 years, and they are the #5 in the country. It can be done. I would think it would be easiest to do so in the Big 12 because nobody is actually any good.

Up.

That site has TCU with the 21st ranked class in the nation after 4 years in the Big 12. #neaterdeal

I don't know why, but I'm tagging to follow the thread.

Pretty poor for NFL U.

Don't be prison bitch and bambi.

That's the highest ranking we've had from a national service. HCGMFP has done awesome with our classes so far and they're only getting better.

You should respect the fact that we seem to be the only Big 12 team that consistently shows up against out-of-conference P5 opponents.

Nobody watches your games. You get terrible TV ratings. Your big "New Years 6" game vs Ole Miss drew about 1/2 the audience as KU's 2nd round game vs Wich State. TCU sports = irrelevant

ROFL

****ing owned

The rats continue abandoning ship.

Kansas head coach David Beaty is shaking things up on his staff this season by declaring he will take on the responsibility for calling offensive plays and coaching the quarterbacks. That essentially strips offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Rob Likens of any defined responsibility on the staff, although he remains a member of Beaty’s assistant coaching staff.

“Rob is still going to carry the same title,” Beaty said earlier this week, according to KUSports.com. “But I’m gonna call the offense, and I’m gonna coach the quarterbacks this year. And that doesn’t have anything to do with Rob. It has to do with me. I want to be more actively involved with the QBs and what we do offensively.”

Beaty last called plays for an offense in 2011 as a co-offensive coordinator and receivers coach. He also called the shots at Rice as offensive coordinator in 2010. The last time Beaty coached quarterbacks was 2006 and 2007 as a passing game coordinator with Rice. With Beaty taking on the lead role of calling the offense, Likens will be used as an extra coach where needed despite holding the same title, officially.

“He’s a little bit more of a walk-around guy right now,” Beaty said. “It allows him to help me a little bit. Rob can go address some of the running-back stuff, some of the O-line stuff, and we get a chance to come back and make sure we’re really doing everything efficient.”

Kansas ranked 10th in the 10-team Big 12 in total offense with an average of 331.5 ypg (115th nationally). Kansas quarterbacks (led by freshman Ryan Willis with junior Montell Cozart appearing in five games) completed 53.8 percent of their passes with 12 touchdowns thrown and 14 intercepted passes. Part of the problem for Kansas was simply a lack of talent to produce much with the offense, but Beaty is looking to set a tone and that was never satisfied last season with the anemic Kansas offense. How much that will change in 2016 is probably minimal, but taking authoritative control just put more of the bulk of the responsibility on Beaty for better or worse.

It is also worth mentioning Willis is continuing to recover from an injured right wrist, which will leave more reps in spring for Cozart, Deondre Ford, Keaton Perry and Carter Stanley.

I saw that the other day. I'm gonna guess that this will improve the offense. Or at least I hope it does.

It can't be any worse, can it?
