Should Mangino be Fired?

286 days ago by Allison Boyer | Comment

Mark Mangino isn’t known for being a nice guy. People may have put up with his rants in the past, but with new allegations from players who say that the Kansas coach was abusive during practices, some people are, of course, calling for his head on a platter.
Says Mangino of … More »

325 days ago by Allison Boyer | Comment

We’re about at the mid-season point for college football. I always think it’s interesting to see which teams have gone undefeated so far and which teams have yet to win a game. By this time, most teams have had at least ONE tough opponent and at least ONE game where … More »

No one can dispute that the Big 12 has talent this year. With quarterbacks like Chase Daniel and defensive players like Auston English and Nic Harris, we should be seeing good things from this conference this year. Maybe not SEC level play, overall, but definitely good things.
