Men's basketball team be mine
For Valentine's Day, I thought I would share my valentine's messages for the basketball team with you. So read on and see what valentine the players received from me.
Jeremy Case: Thanks for sticking around when Roy Williams divorced us. Also, thanks for not jumping ship with the rest of your recruiting class — David Padgett and J.R. Giddens. At least you're on a good team.
Darnell Jackson: You're the electricity that charges this team.
However, I'm not sure how well your King Kong chest-pounding routine is going over. If you're going to keep doing it, you should go all out and scream really loud and then flex as you run down the court.
Hugs and kisses.
Russell Robinson: You're the first of three point guards. You should watch some Steve Nash highlights and learn some new tricks. You'll
Sasha Kaun: Dunk it.
have some athletes around you, take advantage of that and get 10 assists a game.
Rodrick Stewart: I admire your willingness to step into a game and fire up a three as if you were good at them. However, you know that isn't what the fans want to see. They know you have some Vince Carter in your dunking ability. Next time, make a poster out of somebody.
Mario Chalmers: You've been the most consistent player all season long. I'm glad you left the paradise of Alaska for little 'Kansas. Make sure you throttle Colorado tonight.
Christian Moody alive. Be mine.
Matt Kleinmann: Thank you for helping to keep the spirit of
Brandon Rush: You've finally arrived! You're kind to like the guy who was too cool to show up on time to prom. But once you got there, you owned the dance floor.
Julian Wright: You're like "Where's Waldo?" Sometimes people look for you during a game, and it's hard to find you. Then you put up 33 points and 12 points and everyone says, "Oh duh, there he is." You should just be awesome every game.
Darrell Arthur: Remember Greg Ostertag? He wore your number too. You know what he didn't do before he left? Win a championship. You know what you should do before you leave?
C. J. Giles: Whoops, this is an old list.
Brennan Bechard: Your dad's the volleyball coach — shouldn't you have to wear spandex when you play?
Sherron Collins: WOW, Everyone
knew you'd be good, but damn.
What amakes me is not only are you fast and make everything, but your neck is more muscular than every other player's arms.
Brad Witherspoon: Hey, you tried out and made the team. You're kind of like Mark Wahlberg from "Invincible," or that hobbit in "Rudy." Now all you need to do is make some amazing play and Disney will make a movie about you.
Bill Self: Keep these guys on fire.
Fans have a better time when you do. They'll keep rooting for you too, as long as you don't lose in the first round again.
Brady Morningstar: You have a pretty sweet last name.
Love, Eric Jorgensen XOXO

With the regular season in the books Kansas continued tapering down its training in preparation for the championship season. The process involves lowering the intensity of workouts toward the end of the season as the Big 12 and NCAA Championships grow closer.
Lee R. Bittenbender, M.D.
"It's so they can have the opportunity for all the work they did all season to bubble up and lead to peak performances," coach Clark Campbell said.
The lowered workload also gave swimmers and divers a chance to catch their breath before heading into championship competition.
"it's almost like Christmas for swimmers," junior Lauren Bonte
said. "We know how many yards we've put behind us and what the end goal is."
The layhawks will take the first step in realizing that end goal today. Preliminaries begin at 10 a.m. and finals start at 6 p.m. with subsequent days of the competition following the same schedule.
Fans can catch the finals for each event streamed live on www. AggieAthletics.com. Fox Sports Net Midwest will also broadcast two-hour specials on tape delay at 11 a.m. on both Thursday, Feb. 22 and Saturday, Feb. 24.
