Jayhawks travel to Hutchinson tourney underdogs
BY CHRISTIAN LUCERO

Most of the time, seeding teams for a tournament is a pretty accurate depiction of the results. But men's golf coach Kit Grove has seen how seedings can be misleading.
"We were toward the bottom last year and finished fifth, so it was a pretty successful tournament," Grove said.
The Jayhawks will shoot to reprise the underdog role as the No. 10 seed this week, Monday through Wednesday, at the big 12 tournament, which will be played at Prairie Dunes
Country Club in Hutchinson.
The course will host four teams ranked in the Golf World/Nike Golf Coaches' Top 25 Poll. Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas A&M and Texas Tech will headline this week's tournament, a field Grove said was full of big-time programs. The team will rely heavily on senior Walt Koelbel, arguably the most consistent Jaiyhawk this season. Grove said Koelbel played at Prairie Dunes two years ago and came away with a ninth-place finish.
"I know Walt has played well here before so hopefully he'll have some positive mojo going into the
tournament," Grove said. "He has worked his way into being a kid you
watch and look up to and every year he's improved into a better player."
Grove said seniors Andrew Storm and Zach Pederson would also provide veteran leadership.
"Andrew is a gue whose game is well suited for this
course. He keeps it in play and that's what you need here, Grove said.
"it's all in the mind when it comes to weather. "
"Zach has played for three years here and has come on lately, so

hopefully he can build on some of his experience and turn in a low number."

The forecast for the week isn't promising, as thunderstorms are predicted to hover around Hutchinson for the entire tournament.
weather," Grove said. "If you go in hoping it will make the course play
tough and even the playing field, it will be an asset to use to our advantage."
Grove also mentioned his hopes for the tournament and his players.
"Hopefully the seniors will enjoy playing a world-class course in a conference tournament," Grove said. "We just need to play it the way it was designed and accept what the golf course gives you. It's been a struggle all season and wed rather be going in the other direction — going into the conference, but that's why you play the game."

New York Jets trade up Mark Sanchez; other Quarterbacks saved for day two
Associated Press
NEW YORK — If there's an NFL executive Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum hasn't approached with an offer to trade in the draft, he should be ready for a call next year.
BY BARRY WILNER
With Brett Favre retired and Thomas Jones threatening to stay away without a renegotiated contract, Tannenbaum was super active
at the beginning of both days of the draft this weekend. His aggressiveness landed quarterback Mark Sanchez in the fifth overall spot.

T a n n e n b a u m
caught his breath
— his team had no
more picks in the first two rounds — he began Sunday's session by dealing with Detroit to start things off. The Jets filled a potential hole with Iowa running back Shonn Greene.
At least Tannenbaum is consistent. In the last four drafts, he's traded up to get key players: in 2006, quarterback Kellen Clemens; in 2007 cornerback Darrelle Revis and linebacker David Harris; and last year, tight end Dustin Keller.
The Jets sent a third-rounder, a fourth-rounder and a seventhrounder to the Lions to get the All-American Greene.
"I think they really believe in my talent and my potential to trade up and get me," Greene said. "I'm just going to work my hardest to satisfy

... and help the team win."
SHONN GREENE Jets running back
Chicago and Dallas finally made their first picks, in the 68th and 69th slots. The Bears went for defensive tackle Jarron Gilbert of San Jose State, and the Cowboys selected Western Illinois linebacker Jason Williams.
"I know a lot was said about him at the top of the second round." Bears GM Jerry Angelo said of Gilbert. "For whatever reason, it didn't happen. We really didn't
expect him to be there but we felt, as I said, given that we wanted to trade down, given that we had four players that we liked and felt good that one of them would be there, that's what happened."
Williams wasn't even invited to
Quarterbacks pretty much were overlooked until late in the second day. Only four went in the first two rounds, including top overall choice Matthew Stafford of Georgia to Detroit. Through three more
"It probably had something to with being an FCS player," said Williams of his small-college background. "I got overlooked in the process."

rounds Sunday, Stephen McGee of Texas A&M was the top choice in the fourth round, by Dallas. Former Oklahoma QB Rhett Bomar, who transferred to Sam Houston State, was taken by the Giants in the fifth round, followed by Ball State's Nate Davis to San Francisco.
But the sixth round saw Fresno State's Tom Brandstater go to Denver — no, he isn't likely another Jay Cutler — and Rutgers' Mike Teel (to Seattle) go in the first five spots. Two more went that round: Keith Null of West Texas A&M, and Curtis Painter of Purdue.
Several big-time programs accustomed to having multiple players selected waited a lot longer than Chicago and Dallas to be involved. Indeed, the Miami Hurricanes had gone 14 straight drafts with a first-round pick. This year, no Hurricane had gone until linebacker Spencer Adkins went to Atlanta at No. 176.
The first Virginia Tech player taken, DB Victor Harris, was No. 157 to Philadelphia, and the first Nebraska Cornhusker went in the next spot, linebacker Cody Glenn to Washington.
All-American running back Javon Ringer of Michigan State was the final pick of Round 5, leaving Utah kicker Louie Sakoda as the only All-American undrafted.
