• KU, K-State recruiting in college b-ball's gray areas

  By JUSTIN KENDALL ESPN writer Dana O'Neil has a fascinating story on the not-quite-cheating-but-it-looks-bad areas of college basketball recruiting.

Orton's father, Larry Orton, was paid thousands of dollars to give 16 speeches at Kentucky-sponsored summer basketball camps. Even Orton's stepbrother got paid to speak at the Kentucky camps. It's all within the gray

• Snyder feature recalls 10-year-old 'SI' story

  A recent Kansas City Star feature on Bill Snyder's returning to coach football at Kansas State opens with a scene of a house in St. Joseph. The house was chosen because it contains an apartment where Marionetta Snyder, a frail but determined single mother, raised the boy who would one day rescue the K-State program."It's where a mother once took her son when it turned out the world was not an easy place to live," Bill Reiter writes in the December 14 story. "It's where the son learned from his m

• Bill Walker is a dick II

  Maybe Bill Walker isn't a dick after all. Maybe the Boston Celtics rookie forward and former Kansas State Wildcat just gets a bad rap. Walker is at the center of a NBA Developmental League controversy after he was wrongly accused of a foul he didn't commit in a late December game. Did his dickish reputation finally catch up to him? Or was the score keeper out to get him? Refs whistled Walker for a foul with 25.2 seconds left in a tied game between Utah and Colorado. But the foul should only have

  Rod Jetton​The big story of the weekend was the Kansas City Star's look into one of the most powerful men in Missouri politics: political consultant and former lawmaker Rod Jetton. It's a must-read story that looks into campaign donations to Jetton's clients, especially those coming after controversial votes and allegations that Jetton is more of a lobbyist than a consultant, thus skirting ethics laws. The Star reports that the way Jetton "conducts political business has attracted the scrutiny

  The chiefs didn't lose Sunday. They also didn't play. Mercifully for us and them. But the Larry Johnson news didn't stop over the weekend. The Chiefs and LJ agreed on a settlement figure the troubled running back will give up during his suspension: $300,000. So LJ can keep bragging about having money -- but not for long if the Chiefs dump him. Arrowhead Pride compiled a couple of news reports (here and here) surveying NFL general managers, and none seem interested in a back that's nearly 30 and
