I saw him working with the O-lineman in the warmup at the Insight Bowl.

Man I could getr very excited about the prospect of he and John Williams as KU's OG's for the next 3 years.

Both are 6-4 and over 325 lbs.

Add Spikes and Hatch to the situation and I would fell great about the future of the O-line.

Parish possibly moving to offense would be one reason KU recruited the DT out of Blinn JC.

I have to be realistic here. I really am not sure that KU can keep this game under three touchdowns.

Because of the unbelieveable team speed of OU, KU does not match up well with OU.

OU comes out every game like Mike Tyson in his hayday. They start throwing knockout punches all over the place. If KU can withstand the early onslaught then maybe they can stay in this game and make it close.

I'm not thinking of KU pre-07 I just think OU is by far the most talented team in the country. I think they are 15-20 points better than MU as well.

Hope I'm wrong.

Chet Hartley is in no danger of losing his job. He is an above average Big 12 OG. At least a 2nd or 3rd team all-league pick.

Also Thorsen will be the starting center next season wioth Lueken at RT and Hatch at one of the guard spots.

Thorsen had already ascended to 2nd team at Wisconsin before being asked to leave the team after a couple of problems with the coaching staff. Hopefully he has matured since then.
