      When does he foresee the two remaining scholarships being filled, and is there any specific position he's looking to fill.
      "Lot of people talked about Ohio State or Georgetown or Michigan State or whoever, [or] Maryland in our bracket. When the brackets came out, the first team I looked at was Northern Iowa," Kansas Coach Bill Self.

        I believe there's still 2 scholarships available. Are they planning on finding another high school or juco player for this year, or saving both until next year?

        Also, do they plan on doing Panther Pals again this year? My seven year old son loved it and hopes they keep having it every year!

          What is your preference for the student section? Jake's Jungle or The Panther Pit

            Will Brooks McKowen be used mostly as the PG this year or is there a chance that he will play more SG if one of the new recruits becomes comfortable at the point?

              What kind of player are they looking at to fill the 2007 open scholarship to compliment Brent Barz?

                Could someone help a brother out and post some of his answers to these questions?

                  Chris Foster to Director of Basketball Ops.

                  Schedule is as been reported before. Looking for two games.

                  Brooks will play the 1, sometimes at the 2.

                    Nice job TC. Some good discussion about next year and how Coach Jake sees this year's reserves and incoming recruits fitting in next year. I would be curious to know how attractive an assistant coach job at UNI is. I mean did they receive 50 apps but only10 had the right experience and credentials to be seriously considered. Obviously there are likely some favorites.

                      Is this archived on your website? If so where would I go to listen to it? Thanks

                        I knew about Chris Foster in a roundabout way because his wife told me they were moving down the street, so I knew they couldn't be going far!

                          Great news to hear that Foster is still involved in the program. He is a great guy and deserves a little reward for his hard work. I know that John Little was offered one of the grad assist positions, did Coach Jake say if he had accepted the position?

                            Did this get asked?

                              I don't know if it was asked on the show, but I believe when asked by some of those involved in this, he liked the name Jake's Jungle and thought it was pretty cool... but also said either one is fine and should be up to the students.
