10:57 AM ET 06.07 | The Kansas University football team's 2010 commitment list grew by two this week with the addition of three-star prospects Geneo Grissom and Jacoby Walker. Grissom, a 6-foot-4, 230-pound defensive end from Hutchinson, selected the Jayhawks over Colorado State, while Walker, a 6-foot-2, 210-pound dual-threat quarterback out of Texas' Westfield High, also garnered offers from Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Kansas State and Syracuse.

The headline should read: Jayhawks Eat Two More Commitments!

C'mon, Mangino! You could be the new Valerie Bertinelli! Weight Watchers!

That picture of T-Rex Mangino scares me. I can tell he has recipies churning in his head, and I suspect many of them involve Bevo.

Don't you think if he really wanted Bevo, it would have happened by now???

Which is why Ralphie always gets nervous when the Jayhawks visit Boulder.

I don't trust T-Rex. I think he's waiting for us to become complacent and let down our guard.

....... Just for the hell of it, does anyone know anything about either of these kids?

Finally!!! A coach that makes Charlie Weis look like an ad for Slim Fast!

Recruiting to Kansas should be pretty easy considering the gravitational pull that guy has

Initial recruiting is kinda tough, but once a kid actually visits the school, it is damn near impossible for him to generate the necessary escape velocity to break free from Mangino's gravity. I think T-Rex probably has his own weather systems, and that two meteorologists are assigned to him full time.

..... Talkin' trash about T-Rex is fun, but does anybody know a damn thing about either of these kids?

Yes it is, no I don't.

Dude is fat...and the oversized huskey boy clothes don't go far enough to cover his roles...just get it over with t-rex, switch to a moo moo or go the way of the spandex...then we'd really have something to talk about...

Mmmmmm, spandex on fattie fat fatties, really acentuates the positive.

By the By...

Is it me, or does it look like he has a smile on his face...under his mouth? Is that even possible?

I know nothing. Walker is 6"2", 210, duel threat QB, 4.55-4.6 40. Decent athlete, smart kid who will graduate in Dec and report early. Stats were so so but he can play. Kind of like Freeman of K State that just went to TB Bucs but without the size.

On another note Seastrunk was at Texas camp today and so was Darius White of Ft Worth Dunbar. He's the #1 ranked WR in the country and #3 overall recruit behind Henderson and Seastrunk.

That's a 2nd mouth for larger loads.

I am absolutely terrified for Bevo. May need therapy.

"Jayhawks land two more commitments"

It's not like they are big sea fishing catches! Mangino is more like landing a big fish than the recruits are.

I find it funny that the best you folks have to shoot at Mangino are fat jokes....not one negative thing to say about his coaching skills. That says a lot.......I'm sure you guys just love it when a girl laughs at the size of your ****

So do you have any useful info on either of the recruits? Or suggestions as to how I might keep Bevo safe?

Mangino is kinda pudgy, by the way. Has done a pretty damn good job with the KU football team, but, in case you hadn't noticed, he's really fat.

Now we know what the Great Wall of China would look like in blue.

Somehow, I picture a large spider web having something to do with Kansas landing recruits..

A few suggestions for #13 (post 15 above):

"I find it funny that the best you folks have to shoot at Mangino are fat jokes....not one negative thing to say about his coaching skills. That says a lot......." - This was good. You should have left it at that.

"I'm sure you guys just love it when a girl laughs at the size of your ****" - Bloody sophomoric. Discounts everything else. First, it reveals that you have **** anxiety. The only guys who swipe at others' manhood in the manner you did are the one's who believe they themselves are cursed with puny peckers. You've now opened yourself up for a barrage of space for rent jokes.

If his coaching skills were anything but average I might comment on them.
