goodness, that photo doesn't give me a positive feeling about how this memorial will turn out. the picture of in-com-plete and underwhelming.

If Goff's Goof has over-extended the KU Athletic Department financially, and restricted their capacity to pay NIL, MEMORIAL is an appropriate moniker.

Remember the old joke "What do you call a Kansas High School Graduate on the Jayhawk Mens Basketball Team?" Ans: Walk On
Geez you can almost say the same thing for KU FB. Only 2 Kansas student athletes, starting.

That has to be frustrating for Kansas high school football coaches, although it seems like KU is at least starting to recruit more in-state now. They probably realize how successful it has been for K-State.

Well, some KU players will tell their bug eyed grand kids they played football on weekends in Arrowhead Stadium in a bygone era of sweaty people who chose to be male gender. Most likely, if not dead from global warming, the grandkids will be more aghast by the name of the Stadium than grandperson playing.

cobbled together comes to mind. weird as hell the way the stands are at different heights to the lights, perhaps this is a reflection of the photo angle?

I believe the lights are supposed to represent "Waving Wheat".
This opens up the whole discussion on the strobe lighting (OU) that are being put in. My personal opinion these light shows can be a step too far and can cause health issues.
What Can Go Wrong?
When using stroboscopic lighting effects, a key concern must be safety.
A proportion of people with photo-sensitive epilepsy may be affected by strobe lighting, and the effect may also produce undesirable sensations amongst the general population if used without due regard.
Certain people with epilepsy and photosensitivity may suffer a seizure if exposed to flashing or strobe lighting
Disturbed vision leading to trips or falls.

This squad suX donk
You can now officially file season under: FIRE, DUMPSTER
Only entertainment value provided by KU football going forward is ***** pleasure to see Leipold squirm over the decision to sink with the JD6 ship...
OR boldly plant his flag on Ballard and lose the locker room in the ensuing face plant(s)
Either way, Leipold put a clown suit on Goff and he's laughing all the way to the bank
Yes, the weasels are closing in...

Special @KU_Football ticket offer
For a limited time, we'll cover the fees on single-game tickets at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium!
The biggest issue when ticket offices do these promotions, the loyal fan that bought early wants to know if they get a refund.
