TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: How many players and coaches does Kansas have in the Basketball Hall of Fame?
A: 17
If basketball ruled conference realignment
MORNING BREW
I know you're all wondering where Kansas will find a home after the conference realignment fiasco has finished.
It looks like it will be in the Big 12, but that's not a done deal. Conferences are al ready messed up with geographic location, so why not shake it up even more?
That's right, I'm proposing a draft of the six major conferences. There will be eight rounds and each conference will have one pick. It will be a snake draft, so a conference can pick first in one round and then sixth in the next. The schools picked are based on who I think have been the best in the last 10 years in basketball. While football is the driving force behind conference realignment, basketball is still important. Schools like Tennessee and Connecticut that have prominent women's basketball teams are also taken into account.
The order has been randomized by me — picked out of a hat — and the order is Pac-12, Big 12, Big Ten, SEC, Big East, ACC.
ROUND ONE
Pac-12 (1) - UCLA
Big 12 (2) - Kansas
Big Ten (3) - Michigan State
SEC (4) - Kentucky
Big East (5) - Connecticut
ACC (6) - Duke
ROUND TWO
ACC (7) - North Carolina
Big East (8) - Syracuse
SEC (9) - Louisville
Big Ten (10) - Ohio State
Big 12 (11) - Arizona
Pac-12 (12) - Texas
ROUND THREE
Pac 12 (13) - Gonzaga
Big 12 (14) - Illinois
Big Ten (15) - Wisconsin
SEC (16) - Florida
Big East (17) - Georgetown
ACC (18) - St. John's
ACC (19) - Pittsburgh
Big East (20) - Temple
SEC (21) - Maryland
Big Ten (22) Notre Dame
ROUND FOUR
Big 12 (23) - Kansas State Pac-12 (24)- Washington
ROUND FIVE
Pac-12 (25) - Oklahoma State
Big 12 (26) - Minnesota
Big Ten (27) - Marquette
SEC (28) - Vanderbilt
Big East (29) - Boston College
ACC (30) - Virginia Tech
ROUND SIX
ACC (31) - Clemson
Big East (32) - Villanova
SEC (33) - Texas A&M
Big Ten (34) - Cincinnati
Big 12 (35) - Indiana
Pac-12 (35) - California
ROUND SEVEN
Pac-12 (37) - Southern California
Big 12 (38) - Missouri
Big Ten (39) - Purdue
SEC (40) - Memphis
Big East (41) - West Virginia
ACC (42) - Tennessee
ROUND EIGHT
ACC (43) - NC State
Big East (44) - Butler
SEC (45) - Xavier
Big Ten (46) - Michigan
Big 12 (47) - Oklahoma
Pac-12 (48) - Stanford
It could have been a geographic cluster, but that wouldn't have made sense. Kansas ended up with Arizona, Illinois, Kansas State, Minnesota, Missouri, Oklahoma and Indiana. Kansas keeps its long standing rivalries with Missouri and Kansas State, while also facing tradition rich teams like Arizona and Illinois. Basketball trumps football in Lawrence and one of the most exciting times for Kansas fans is March Madness.

Offensive line coach inducted to Hall of Honor by alma mater

Kansas Football offensive line coach J.B. Grimes will be inducted into the Reddie Hall of Honor at Henderson State University in Arkadelphia, Ark., on Saturday.
Grimes played on the offensive line at Henderson State from 1973-76. Grimes, who started his career as a walk-on and earned a scholarship by the end, won three Arkansas Intercollegiate Conference titles at Henderson State and advanced to the NAIA national championship game in 1974.
Grimes was named an All-AIC
offensive lineman in 1976.
"This is a huge honor because I played on so many good football teams with so many good players," Grimes said in a press release in July when he learned about his induction. "It is humbling for me because there are a lot of other players who deserve this a lot more than I do. I was not really a
great player. I was not even a really good player, but I was what I like to call a 'try-hard' guy. I took the field, worked hard and helped out the team as best as I could."
Grimes is in his second year as the offensive line coach for Kansas. He coached for the 1987 Division I-AA national champion, Northeast Louisiana. Grimes
coached in the 1990 Cotton Bowl for Arkansas as an assistant. He later coached in consecutive BCS Bowl games under Frank Beamer at Virginia Tech, the 1995 Orange Bowl and 1996 Sugar Bowl. Grimes made his last BCS appearance as an assistant coach for Texas A&M in the 1999 Sugar Bowl.
Grimes will be inducted at 11
a. m. Saturday at the Garrison Center Day Gym on the Henderson State campus.
"It was really a great time that I would have not traded for anything in the world." Grimes said in a press release.
