Rock Chalk, Jayhawks!

It was a great weekend.  Went to Manhattan and saw my beloved Hawks beat K-state 30-24 and secure a top 25 ranking for the first time in 11 years.

Having worked for the team during th 2002 season and sitting through an 2-10 mess, it was an awesome feeling to know that KU has now turned the corner and is a competitive team wherever they go.

It toook about six years, but Mangino’s goal has finally started to become reality.  It shows me how hard work really can get the job done.  You may not see results right away, but I think it’s important to recognize what you have accomplished every now and then.

Next week, KU takes on Baylor at home.  With a win KU will start 6-0 for the first time ever and be bowl eligible.  Making holiday travel arrangements in the middle of October is a problem that I would like to get used to.
