WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH KANSAS?: Well, they're desperate to the point of getting their Senators involved. Ultimately I feel like they're worried about nothing--the heart of Kansas athletics is the basketball program, and basketball programs can be competitive no matter what conference they're in. So their most important program cannot be "left out" of major athletics. But--you know--there are financial benefits to being in a BCS league, I suppose. Like say, The Big (The Sun Rises In The) East? If they get Memphis too...jeez. That's a basketball league.
