Others that accomplished the feat of playing in a BCS game and the Final Four in the same academic year include Ohio State (1999), Wisconisn (2000) and Florida (2007).

KU won 11 Big 12 conference games in the last two seasons combined, a total the Jayhawks had recordedinthepreviousfiveyearscombined.

While Minnesota plays three “trophy” games each year, Kansas won both of its “trophy” games this season. The Jayhawks defeated Kansas State for the annual Governor’s Cup and beat Missouri for the Band Drum.

Kansas and Minnesota are involved in the nation’s two most played rivalries. The Gophers have played Wisconsin 118 times for the most played rivalry, while Kansas has met Missouri 117 times for the second-most played rivalry.

In addition, KU’s 103 consecutive games with Ne-braska is the nation’s longest uninterrupted series, while UM’s 102 straight games with Wisconsin ranks second.

While KU does not have any football players from the state of Minnesota, the Jayhawk basketball team features Cole Aldrich from Bloomington.

Sharp has now rushed for 197 yards in his last two games. Not to be overshadowed by Sharp’s performance was the effort of KU’s defense, which held Colorado to 233 yards of total offense, nearly 100 yards shy of its 325 per game average.

Mark Mangino(Youngstown State, 1987)Head Coach7th Year at Kansas

In his seventh year at the University of Kansas, head coach Mark Mangino has taken the Jayhawks to heights never reached before in the program’s history. This season’s trip to the Insight Bowl, helped the Jayhawks set even more program firsts.

Among a number of accomplishments, the 2007 consensus national coach of the year, has guided the Jayhawks to:

• Four bowl games in a six-year span (2003-present). That represents one-third of KU’s bowl appearances in just six years (eight bowl games in the previous 56 years since KU’s first bowl game in 1948).• Bowl games in consecutive years (2007 and 2008) for the first time in school history.• Seven wins in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1960 and 1961.• Nineteen wins in a two-year period, the most in consecutive years in school his-tory (won 18 in 2006-07 and 1904-05).• Six wins in four straight seasons (2005-08) for the first time since 1903-06.• Combined 32-17 record in the last four years tying for the most wins in a four-year period in KU history with a 32-6 mark from 1896-99.• Set home attendance records in each of the last four years.• Returned to the national polls in 2007, the Jayhawks’ first ranking since 1996.• Were ranked in a school-record 19 consecutive Associated Press polls from 2007 through half of 2008.

Mangino did all of this after taking over a program which had not posted a winning record in any of the six seasons prior to his arrival. Already he has become the third-winningest coach in school history with 44 victories, including 32 in the last four years. He has led KU to more bowl games (four) than any previous Jayhawk coach, while his 2-1 bowl-game mark is tied with Glen Mason for most bowl wins at the school.

His players have been recognized not only on the field of play with 73 earning All-Big 12 honors, but 45 Jayhawks have been named to the Academic All-Big 12 First Team as well. In 2007 KU had two players earn First Team and one Second Team All-America honors by the Associated Press. After last season, four Jay-hawks were drafted by NFL teams.

Prior to his arrival in Lawrence, Mangino was one of the primary architects in the rebuilding process at both Oklahoma (1999-2001) and Kansas State (1991-98). As assistant head coach and offensive coordinator under Bob Stoops at OU, Mangino and the Sooner staff took a program that was 5-6 in 1998 and carved out seasons of 7-5 (1999), 13-0 (2000) and 10-2 (2001).

Mangino was the recipient of the 2000 Frank Broyles Award as the top assistant coach in college football in the second of his three seasons as assistant head coach/offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at Oklahoma.

Throughout his career, Mangino has been associated with football programs which have experienced phenomenal success and has been a key ingredient in building that success during that time. He has been in a leadership role with teams that have qualified for bowl games in 12 of the last 15 years, including the 2000 season when the Sooners won the Big 12 Conference championship, finished ranked number one nationally and beat Florida State in the Orange Bowl to win the national title.

During its run to the national championship in 2000, Mangino’s Sooner offense ranked seventh nationally in scoring (39.0) and 13th in pass offense (294.7). In addition, OU averaged more than 427 yards per game in total offense for the sec-ond consecutive season. Under the influence of Mangino as offensive coordinator, the Sooners ranked second in the conference in pass offense at the conclusion of both the 2000 and 2001 seasons.

During his three years on the Sooner staff, the OU offense scored 31 or more points in 26 of 37 games and produced 40 or more points 14 times. The Sooners averaged 34.1 points per game during those three seasons.

At Kansas State, Mangino served as recruiting coordinator, running game coor-dinator and, in 1998, was appointed assistant head coach. The season prior to his arrival in Manhattan, the Wildcats posted a 5-6 record. Over the next eight seasons, K-State went 71-23-1 with six consecutive nine-plus win seasons and played in six straight bowl games.

Overall, Kansas State and Oklahoma were a combined 101-30-1 and ranked in the top 25 nationally in eight of 11 seasons during Mangino’s involvement on the coaching staffs.

Prior to his stint at Kansas State, Mangino worked one season as head football coach at Ellwood City (Pa.) High School. He spent three seasons (1987-89) as offensive line coach and as offensive coordinator at Geneva (Pa.) College, where he helped that program to its three best seasons (combined 24-9) in modern school history. The 1987 Geneva squad reached the NAIA national semifinals.

Mangino also coached two seasons (1985-86) at Youngstown State, including one under current Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel. He was an assistant coach at his alma mater, New Castle (Pa.) High School, for four seasons.

Mangino and his wife, Mary Jane, have a daughter, Samantha, a graduate of the University of Kansas, and a son, Tommy, who is a graduate assistant with the KU football program. Tommy and his wife Danielle, as well as Samantha and her husband, David Hardy, reside in Lawrence. Samantha and David are the parents of Mangino’s granddaughter, Gabriella.

Both Coach Mangino and his wife Mary Jane are very involved in the community donating time and resources to a number of organizations.

Playing in itsfifthbowlgameeverandsecondin three years, Kansas dropped a 33-19 decision to Pittsburghinthe41stannualSunBowl.Behindthree100-plus yard rushing performances by All-American halfbackTonyDorsett (142), fullbackElliottWalker(123) and quarterback Robert Haygood (101), thePanthers built a 19-0 halftime lead andmade thatlead hold up in the second half to claim the triumph. Walkeropenedthegame’sscoringwithabrilliant60-yardrunonapitchoutfromHaygood.Thescorecame with 2:11 remaining in the initial quarter after two earlier scoring threats by Kansas had faltered. The failure on those two occasions seemingly gave Pittsburgh themomentum itneeded tocapture thevictory.Thefirstcameonthegame’sthirdplaywhenKU quarterbackNolanCromwell kept for 13 yardsaroundend,thenpitchedtohalfbackBillCampfield,whofleduntouchedtotheendzoneforwhatappearedtobean83-yardscoringplay.Buttheofficialsruleditwasanillegalforwardpitchandtheballwasbroughtback.Thedrivesubse-quentlystalled.Thesecondcamejustinsidethesix-minutemarkinthefirstquarterwhen,facingafourth-and-oneatthePitt17,Cromwellappearedtoeasilymakeafirstdownwithasneak up the middle.

That madeit19-7,butwith12:49remaininginthegameWalkerscoredagainforPittsburgh,thistime from two yards out, to erase all hopes of a KU comeback. Smithlateraddeda17-yardtouchdownrun,whichwasfollowedbya38-yardscoringpass fromquarterbackScottMcMichael tohalfbackSkipSharp to closeout theKansasscoring.

KU Tradition

Campanile HillCampanile Hill forms the picturesque backdrop for Memorial Stadium. On a sunny fall Saturday, the “Hill” is transformed into a congregating place for watching Jayhawk football, sunning and barbequing. Potter Lake, just to the southeast of Memorial Stadium and at the bottom of Campanile Hill, adds to the beauty of the Kansas campus.

The Rock Chalk ChantThe Rock Chalk Chant has been the battle cry of KU fans for more than 80 years. This strange, traditional chant, which is among the most famous of all college cheers, was started by E.H.S. Bailey, a professor of chemis-try. Bailey wanted a cheer for his Science Club. Returning from a conven-tion in Wichita, Bailey and some associates patterned a yell after the rhythmic cadence of their train rolling along the tracks. On May 21, 1886, Bailey submitted the cheer to his club. Even though there was no football team at KU until 1890, the Rock Chalk Chant tradition steadily grew. Before the University adopted the cheer in 1897, it consisted of “Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU” being repeated three times. An English professor soon sug-gested that “Rock Chalk” be substituted for “Rah, Rah” because it rhymed with Jayhawk. “Rock Chalk” was also symbolic of the chalky limestone formations found on Mount Oread. Professor Bailey would be amazed to hear 50,000 Jayhawk football fans shouting the cheer he gave his Science Club in 1886; a cheer that Teddy Roosevelt said was the best he had ever heard.

The Fight SongGeorge “Dumpy” Bowles, a student with the class of 1912, longed to make a great contribution to KU spirit, but wasn’t athletic enough to do historic deeds on the athletic field. He turned to music and produced some out-standing student musical shows. A song in one of these shows was “I’m a Jayhawk.” Written in 1912, it was dormant until 1920 when a growth in school spirit brought out “I’m a Jayhawk” once more. The song contributed to the raising of funds to build both the stadium and union as World War I memorials. The 1926 glee club made it known nationally.

The School ColorsThe University of Kansas colors, crimson and blue, used since the early 1890s, are not the colors originally adopted by the university Board of Regents in the 1860s. The Regents had decided to adopt the Michigan colors, maize and sky blue.

Maize and blue were used at early oratorical meets, and they may have been used when Kansas competed in rowing in the middle 1880s.

However, when football came upon the scene in 1890, the student back-ers wanted to use Harvard crimson as the athletic color in honor of Col. John J. McCook, a Harvard man, who had given money for an athletic field at KU. That field ran east and west in the proximity of where the north bowl of Memorial Stadium stands on the KU campus today.

Until that time, Kansas football games were played at Central Park on Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence. Some Yale men were on the faculty, and they demanded Yale blue be included. The root-ers rallied forth to allow crimson and blue on their team. No one fought to retain the original colors, and the vivid deeper tone crimson and blue became generally used. Finally, in May 1896, the KU Athletic Board adopted crimson and blue as the official team colors for the university.

The Alma MaterIn 1891, professor George Barlow Penny searched for a school song for the Glee and Mandolin Club to sing on its tour through Kansas to Denver and back. No one responded with an original song in answer to his appeals. Just before departure, he thought of the Cornell song “Far Above Cayuga’s Waters.” Hastily changing a few words, he gave it to the glee club men to sing on the trip. He did not expect the song to be used after their return, but “Crimson and the Blue” still goes on. The music is not Cornell’s but an old English folk tune, “Annie Lisle.”

What’s a Jayhawk?The University of Kansas is home of the Jayhawk, a mythical bird with a fascinating history. Its origin is rooted in the historic struggles of Kansas settlers. The term “Jayhawk” was probably coined about 1848. Accounts of its use appeared from Illinois to Texas.

The name combines two birds - the blue jay, a noisy, quarrelsome thing known to rob other nests, and the sparrow hawk, a stealthy hunter. The message here: Don’t turn your back on this bird.
