Quick KU Hoops Update:

I continue to Hear former Northern Illinois PG David Coit will be a Jayhawk this season. I’m expecting this to happen soon.

I think we’ll get an announcement by the end of the week here.

On Wednesday, Coit won a championship in an NCAA sanctioned pro-am league… scoring 56 points in the title game.

Check out his highlights from last season below.

A friend of mine was back home in Kansas this weekend and sent a text gave me an idea. He found an old newspaper clip from when Darrell Arthur committed to KU.

New Booth Stadium in CFB25 Video Game

KU’s new stadium is now in the college football video game after being released in an online update.

This confirms a Hearing from July 15, when I wrote:

I’m Hearing the new stadium will be patched into the game in a downloadable online update. The hope was this will be available before the start of the college football season.

Check out the video game renderings of the new stadium.

What'd you think of today's Hearing?

I’m working on some Hearings around what the David Coit addition means for the rest of the basketball roster.

I think it signals something fairly notable.

I’ll share that with VIP soon.
