- Keegan: Kansas defense passive
- October 6, 2008
- The Kansas University football team’s offense was its bold, brash self in the second half of a 35-33 comeback victory Saturday at Iowa State. The Jayhawks went for it on fourth down and with the lead kept throwing the ball, instead of milking the clock. “We have to,” coach Mark Mangino said. “It’s part of the makeup of our football team. We tell the kids all the time we need to be aggressive. … You can’t get in your play calling and say, ‘We’re going to sit on this.’

- Woodling: It’s time to honor Houk
- September 30, 2008
- Now is the time for Lawrence to do something to recognize a nearly forgotten native son. I’m talking about Ralph Houk, a man who did nothing but distinguish himself in major-league baseball and, more important, as a combat soldier in World War II.

- Mayer: KU duo must earn it
- October 2, 2008
- A couple ex-Kansas basketball players who went astray got off reasonably cheap — if you’re rich enough to consider a $20,000 fine cheap. They may think they’ve escaped the woodshed of public displeasure since they got no NBA suspensions. But the jury is still out for Darrell Arthur and Mario Chalmers with members of a very special fraternity of which they’re a part: Former players who are justifiably covetous of the prestige of the program and their school.

- September 2, 2008
- Here are some of my first impressions of the 2008-09 Kansas Jayhawks, based on the squad’s Labor Day weekend trip to Canada. KU defeated McGill, 72-67, and Carleton, 84-83, on Saturday before pounding Ottawa, 95-60, on Sunday.

- February 16, 2008
- The phone rang for a man I presumed to be Lincoln Minor, the former Kansas University basketball player who played 34 games in the 1987-88 season. “Hello?” the man on the other end answered. “Hi, is this Lincoln?” I asked. “Yes,” he said. “The Lincoln who played basketball for the Kansas Jayhawks?” “No,” the man replied. “This is his father.” Hey, that’s progress.

- Tait: Priceless gesture inspiring
- October 3, 2008
- The votes have not been counted, the crowns not yet placed on heads. Yet Free State High senior Taylor Stuart already has proved that he is worthy of a title like “king.” Tonight is Homecoming at FSHS, a time when students and faculty, past and present, gather to celebrate what being a Firebird is all about.

- Star won’t play in Kansas City tonight, but his presence will be felt
- September 27, 2007
- So here it is, the day many soccer fans have waited for since January. The Los Angeles Galaxy come to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Kansas City Wizards in Major League Soccer.
