Hall of Fame list

To our anonymous friend with the dynamic IP: Please provide sources that these individuals ever played or coached at KU. I have a media guide from 2003 and none of the individuals you added (except Endacott, who I have inserted into the list) are in there. I know for certain that Suns owner Jerry Colangelo never played here, and the coaches you listed never coached here either. I'm not positive about the other two but I can't find anything verifying them either. I will continue to revert this addition of what appears to be patently false information.

I know for a fact that KU has the most BBall HOFers associated with it of any university... methinks that if you were to look at the HOF banner at AFH you would see all of those names. --Uggh1134 02:37, 26 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, they aren't there. (ESkog)(Talk) 04:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Blow-by-blow description of the 2006-07 season

The detailed paragraphs on each and every game of the basketball season are going to bloat this article with cruft like nothing else. Wikipedia is not sports journalism - in fact, it's not journalism at all. The closest Wikimedia thing which comes close to this is Wikinews, but I don't know that I'd feel good sending this over there either. I'm going to remove the whole section, but thought that such a broad move required an explanation. Take it to a blog or something. (ESkog)(Talk) 04:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Number of National Championships

How should national championships in athletics be counted? A recent update changed it from 9 to 11 along with a change from 2 to 4 in men's basketball. The text reads NCAA Division I championships, but the men's basketball championships in the 1920s pre-dated the NCAA. The NCAA website recognizes championships as early as 1939, not before. [1] As it stands now, the article is technically inaccurate. Should the number reflect NCAA Division I championships or should the text be re-written to refer to "national championships" (or some other form)? I went ahead and reverted it back to 9 and 2 consistent with the Wikipedia entry for NCAA tournament champions and the NCAA Website. Jayhawks71 00:59, 20 March 2007 (UTC)Jayhawks71[reply]

I looked a bit further to try to resolve the discrepancy. Given that the article on the Helms Foundation suggests that NCAA championships were rewarded retroactively, perhaps the number should be 9/2 men's basketball, with a sentence identifying the two additional that technically predated the NCAA. I look forward to input; I don't want this to turn into some sort of battle. Jayhawks71 01:14, 20 March 2007 (UTC)Jayhawks71[reply]

kansas Football

Removed "On November 3rd 2007 the Jayhawks scored 76 points against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The most points scored by a single team in big twelve history." from the end of the football section because it was already mentioned in the cut from the main football article. Looks like that article may need to be cleaned up too. Silly beakers. Jklharris 17:49, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
