I think they were legit good in like 95 maybe? Maybe even ranked when we played them

They were ranked in the Top 10 in 1995. Lots of talent on that team that went onto success in the NFL. Absolutely loaded in the trenches. I loved hearing the war stories from the KU players about going against the Peters Brothers and the other studs we had on the D Line. Mason had them ranked twice in the 90's and won 2 bowl games.

Yeah I looked back, the Big 8 (and weirdly the future Big 12 north) was absolutely stacked in 1995….

OU just took an offensive tackle from London- have to guess they got tired of waiting on Brix

Someone told me Mike Schaefer said on 1620 today that he thinks Brix may have already committed to us. I didn't hear any context for the comment, but it's interesting.

1992 was a pretty darn good team. That was my freshman year at KU and I was friends with quite a few of the players then. I believe that KU was in the top 10 until a stretch of playing Nebraska, Colorado, and Missouri back-to-back-to-back, where the wheels kind of fell off.

Brix is N at this point maybe not officially but everyone else has clearly given up and he said he doesn't care that we're dookie

Sounds like a pattern that the only decent coaches they get are huge dickheads.

Of course the last decent one we had was a huge dickhead too.

Small world. I know quite a few of the players from the 92 team. Good friends with Keith Loneker, Chris Smith & John Jones. Actually they worked Concert Security for me a few times for fun when I had bigger bands that they liked. Both Lonnie & JJ, along with KU DE Daryl Jones worked a 2 Live Crew Show for me that was crazy. After my brother left the KU Athletic Department he had numerous businesses in Lawrence including quite a few bars. He is still one of the owners of The Hawk, Leroys and Clydes. Also use to be part owner of The Yacht Club, Bullwinkels and Cadillac Ranch along with some others. He owned a Telcom Engineering company that he would hire his good bar employees that were graduating to work for. He'd pick the ones who were smart and hard workers as it was easy to train them plus they made big money. A good percentage of his employees worked as Doormen at the bars which many were football players. At one point he had 65 employees in his Denver Office of which probably 50 were KU grads and at least 15 played football for KU. Numerous other former college football players like Chris Smith's brother Dwayne Castilla who was an All Big 12 Linebacker for Kansas St also worked for him in Denver.

My Live Music Venue was in Vail and my youngest brother ran the Denver Office for him so I'd have all kinds of KU football players coming up on weekends crashing at my house with my brother to party and/or ski. They loved helping out doing security when I had big concerts. Nothing like walking into a bar in Denver or Vail with 5 guys or more guys who are over 6-4+ & 330+ lbs, definitely would turn heads.

Yes, people forget that when the Big 12 formed, the divisions were seen as heavilly tilted... toward the North being the superior divison. The powers of the conference at that time were Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas State.

I was a freshman at UNL in 1994-1995 and in my freshman communications class I gave a speech about how Nebraska was the clearly superior team to undefeated and No. 2 Gaetz State.

That year we beat (according to final rankings):
No. 3 Colorado 24-7 (ranked No. 2 when we played them)
No. 6 Miami 24-17 (No. 3)
No. 19 Kansas State 17-6 (The Turmanator/LP game)

Gaetz State's best wins were against No. 11 Oregon in the bowl (while we beat No. 3 Miami) and No. 12 Michigan.

1995 featured an even tougher schedule, with DONU beating four teams that finished the sason ranked in the top 10 (three of them being future Big 12 North rivals):
No. 2 Florida 62-24
No. 5 Colorado 44-21
No. 7 Kansas State 49-25
No. 9 Kansas 41-3
No doubt.

Our quest to sign a class consisting of a dozen DBs continues.

 

[Snockered69]

So who is getting processed?

With Turner and Charles switching from thin WR room to DB, my guess is without a large jump they’ll be processed.

Not exactly, at least what I heard him say. Yesterday, he said words to the effect of “For all we know, he may have already committed but hasn’t told anyone.”
