Plus, he hadn't practiced at all during the week. So, there's that . . .

If you can't sit on your ass on a bus for 3 hours then you aren't going to be playing football any time soon.

Right.
Either his back is fucked up beyond repair to the point of just being sure he can play football NEXT season or we're coming up with excuses.

Or he just needs that disc to calm down and it hasn't yet. Who knows, maybe he's fine in 2 weeks, maybe he is done forever. Probably somewhere in between.

It's a shame such a marvelous talent is sidelined by this. His skill set and leadership qualities are hard to come by.

i remember seeing jd his freshman season at k-state and said to myself then: this kid is going to be a stud. he was clearly so athletic even then.

It’s a different set of circumstances 100%, but NC State just announced he’s redshirting this year instead of coming back.

Still think such an announcement for JD6 might be eminent. PS- no trusted source, just my gut feeling.

WTF?? You freaking guys? Have you never had a bad back? If you have you know sitting is the worst thing you can do, so riding on a bus to BFE is not probably a good idea. You do know that another school has QB sitting out.
So next year new B12 most likely fav is going to be.......????

Utah who has a QB that maybe could be playing but has decided to sit. They for sure with this QB who has decided he can not play right now going to be the fav next year in the new Big12.

Now remember next year we going to 12 team playoff.

You guys starting to use your brains. What are we 16 Now. But we win out we end up ?????

And next year top 12!!!

Not this year but NEXT year. Oh yea your brains kicking in.

Yeah.

There is a distant conspiracy voice that’s saying Lance and Jalon are on bored with this and get that Jalon can make more money over his college career if he sits the year out and then takes command of the new B12. And Lance and KU are set for the next two years of the new B12.

It doesn’t make much sense but hey, there’s a chance.

this is my conspiracy theory : )

**edit---although, isn't Utah going to be the team to beat in the new Big '12'?

Whose it gonna be on Saturday? Ballard? Bean? Daniels?

50% chance of Bean.
49% chance of Ballard.
1% chance of Daniels.

If it's Ballard, 95% chance at an L.

Daniels releases a video saying the season didn't go as planned with the injury but his goals haven't changed and he's not going anywhere. First off, good on him for squashing all the bullshit. Second off, it really blows that he had to make that video in the first place.

And a statement released through the football team.

https://twitter.com/KU_Football/status/ ... 1866953095

So,will Psych stop his anti-JD rhetoric?

I guess he wasn’t allowed to say KU or wear KU clothes in that video. (Yeah he said rock chalk, I heard)

Wonder who it was produced for. Nice JD6 mercy he was wearing.

Name on the front. Name on the back.

Taken at face value, happy he’ll have two years left at Kansas. This is best possible outcome for him, and KU, assuming no further injury.

So can Ballard theoretically redshirt if he only plays in 3 or less games?

You can play in 4 games and still redshirt. So far, Ballard has played in 3 as has Daniels. Assuming Daniels' statement today is an indicator they are shutting him down to get his back healthy, so he shouldn't lose a year of eligibility for this season. Ballard, hard to say, but it sounds like Bean's going to go on Saturday.
