Quote From Petro Applies to KU Football


During the lunch drive yesterday, I was listening to Soren Petro on 810 talk about the Kansas basketball team and questions about their heart. I thought he had a quote that applied to the football team:

"Are you just out there wearing the uniform or are you a player? Because players go out and win games."


For the 6-6 football team, there was a lot of talk last year about coaching errors and mistakes by young, inexperienced players. A lot of that is valid, but I'd sure like to move beyond the "excuses" stage next year and just flat out win the games. We've been talking about breaking through since 2004. It's time to be players and get it done.
