For any Kansas fans who were in The Backyard this afternoon, what was your experience like?

[Jason L. Franklin @SportsFanJF]

@M_Vernon @tq1219 @neald_93 Hopefully, @tgoff11 is taking notice along with @KUAthletics to handle this situation, if and when it happens again?? Plus, to the Ticket Representatives that look over the Donors and Season Ticket Holders of other sports 🤔

[Jason L. Franklin @SportsFanJF]

@M_Vernon @tq1219 @neald_93 I’m not sure it’s a boring take. I’m a donor and season ticket holder for Football and Basketball. I wasn’t able to secure tickets. Definitely wasn’t going to play $35 for “Backyard” and not able to see anything. Let’s see how the next couple days go…

[👉M-Û-R-Č-H👈 @TheEXECUTlONER_]

This tiny New York City apartment, 80 x 150, goes for $650 a month! 🤯

She has no oven and her bed is up a ladder and there is about two to three feet of space from the bed to the ceiling.

Her bathroom is actually outside the apartment down the hall. She has to walk past her neighbors to get to it.

She goes up on the roof outside to get some space, do some work and maybe a little yoga.

But get this, she has a dog! She said she sometimes leaves the dog in the apartment or she takes him to daycare. 🤔

I could not live like that. I could not sleep like that and I could not shower like that. And, I could not have a dog in such a small space.

Many, many people said that she should not have a dog and should not be allowed to have a dog in such a tiny apartment.

Do you think it is cruel to have the dog with her? Or , do you think that if the dog is getting love and fed, cares for and taken out, that’s her business? Have you ever seen a smaller apartment than this? Could you ever live like this?

[Aaron 'AJ' England @TracksideAJ]

Beautiful tribute from NASCAR.

[cllct @cllctMedia]

Never forget when Kyle Busch spotted this fan wearing his hat while driving next to her in traffic 🥹

This is one of the most wholesome interactions you'll ever see.

[Jayhawk Report @jayhawks_report]

Kansas commit Christian Reeves will undergo a procedure for his Labrum injury from last season per Jeff Goodman.

The severity is unknown, but it could be a recovery time of 4 to 6 months.

[Steven Taranto @STaranto92]

Here's what Ryan Preece was so mad at Ty Gibbs about. Gibbs charged the entry to T1 on his inside and slid up towards Preece's left front and cost him spots. Got on the mic immediately.

"What a fucking idiot that kid is! He is SO lucky his car is so fucking fast!!"

You can also see how close Preece got to Gibbs' bumper when Gibbs spun. Preece said he didn't touch him and it's inconclusive as to whether he did or if Gibbs just lost it on his own.

Bill Self just landed Tyran Stokes 👀

What are your thoughts on the Jayhawks’ roster? 🤔⬇️

[Jeff Goodman @GoodmanHoops]

Even with Tyran Stokes, this Kansas roster is still underwhelming by KU standards:

G: Taylen Kinney
G: Leroy Blyden/Kohl Rosario
F: Tyran Stokes
F: Keanu Dawes
C: Christian Reeves/Paul Mbiya

We discuss KU's roster:
