"Playing in the Big 12 is going to make us recruit harder," Waugh said. "We have a lot of good players in our conference, and they can't all go to a Texas school, so in the future we'll expect to get some good players from within the conference."
Conference golf powers unite
New competition could strengthen Jayhawks' game
With collegiate sports heading into a new era of super-conferences, traditional powers from foreign conferences have become allies to ensure a wealth of success.
By Tommy Gallagher Kansan sportswriter
Waugh agreed. The process will be tough but worthwhile, he said.
New super-conferences, modeled after the expanded Southeastern Conference, continue to form as lucrative television deals increase. The Big 12 and the Western Athletic Conference, which expanded to a national high of 16 teams, could not only strengthen major sports, but
Last year the Big Eight Conference and the Western Athletic Conference were strong golf conferences, while the Southeastern and Southwest Conferences stood at center stage.
smaller ones such as golf as well.
What a difference a year makes. The Big 12 combined top-five teams Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas, as well as top-25 teams Texas A&M, Texas Tech and Kansas, and became one of golf's premier conferences. The addition of the Texas schools to an already strong conference cannot be overstated in the Big 12's lofty expectations, said women's golf head coach Jerry Waugh.
Unfortunately for the Big 12, assembling the teams will be difficult. Because each school invites whomever it wants to attend their invitational, not all conference schools will be granted an invitation by their Big 12 comrades.
What a difference a year makes.
As for the WAC, they accepted UNLV, San Jose State and former-SWC teams Texas Christian and Southern Methodist this year. They will compete with New Mexico and Brigham Young, making it a strong golf conference, much like the other two super-conferences in America; the Big 12 and the SEC.
"Playing against strong schools will do nothing but make you better," Waugh said. "Having to compete at a higher level is preferred over playing a lesser opponent, because you always want to
improve on the quality of your play."
Because these new super-conferences have all but diminished regional boundaries, coaches now have access to a larger recruiting base. Despite this, men's head coach Ross Randall believes that snagging a top recruit from another region will take some time.
Senior golfer Kit Grove said he was, prepared for the season's challenge.
"It will take a while before Texas kids will take a long, hard look at KU," Randall said. "For now our recruiting base is the same, but there will be more interconference competition (for recruits) somewhere in the future."
"The fall season will be an interesting one to say the least." Grove said. "Although we won't necessarily play, the southern schools all too much because of our schedules, we'll need to find out who can play for us when we play better competition."
New Hornet rips Knicks' logic
Mason says exchange was foolish decision
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Anthony Mason joined the Charlotte Hornets yesterday and wasted no time in delivering a blunt message to his employers, the New York Knicks: You've been had.
"I think the organization up there is really fooling themselves," Mason said after being introduced by the Hornets, who acquired him in a trade last month for Larry Johnson.
Besides unloading the remaining nine years of Johnson's 12-year, $84-million contract, the Hornets, Mason said, gave up a solid offensive player for one who is strong on both ends of the floor.
Mason said the Knicks' defense likely would suffer as a result.
"I think everybody — press, basketball people, coaches, fans — knows defense wins games," said the 6-foot-7, 250-pound Mason, who has built a reputation as one of the NBA's better defenders. "Any time that you start going the offensive
route and start fooling yourself into thinking that you made the team better because you think you got more scoring or whatever, I think you lost a little bit."
"Larry played good offense," Mason said. "That's what he was here to do: score. I'm not saying that his defense wasn't great or whatever. It's not a knock on Larry."
Mason, who averaged a careerhigh 14.6 points last season compared with Johnson's 20.5, said his remarks shouldn't be taken as criticism of Johnson.
Mason said he hoped the Knicks were happy with the trade because he was sure the Hornets would be pleased.
"God has blessed me with a lot of ability to be very versatile. And any time you can get a versatile player as opposed to somebody who can do one or two things, I don't think you really lose."
Mason would not comment on his
"Larry shot — what — 500, 600 more shots than I did and averaged five more points?" he said. "I bring defense, I bring the ability to pass, I bring the ability that a team can't trap us, because I can break a press.
"I think everybody press,basketball people,coaches,fans knows defense wins games."
Anthony Mason new Charlotte Hornets forward
Mason, who is fond of having messages shaved into his hair, showed up yesterday with a new one: rebirth of a star.
pending felony assault case in New York. Authorities have set an Oct. 11 court date — seven days after training camp opens — to discuss Mason's alleged role in an altercation with New York police. Mason's lawyers have said they were confident the charges would be reduced to misdemeanors and resolved.
"That was meant as a collective thing," he said. "Charlotte's always had a lot of talent but never reached where they wanted to get."
