Working in golf, I had the opportunity to interact regularly with TV network/production teams. As it applies to Dan Hicks, he was as approachable, professional and respectful as could be. He was always willing to meet the host GC superintendent and appreciative of their role. RIP
It was great to have the Wojciechowski family with roots in the great state of Kansas. @genowoj born in Salina, Kan., when his dad was stationed at Schilling AFB. My guess he had lots of Tony's Pizzas growing up!
A thousand thanks to all those who serve/served in our military. On Veteran's Day I think of my mom, who was an Air Force lieutenant and served in Japan, and my dad--an Air Force lieutenant colonel who served in two wars. Flag flying for all today.
Happy National Basketball Day! Born 11/6/1891, Dr. James Naismith, inventor basketball, born in Almonte, Ontario, Can. Naismith was hired by @UnivOfKansas as an instructor/director of chapel & introduced the game of basketball. KU lost its first game to KC YMCA, 16-5, 2/4/1899.
Industry news—The ACC is hiring Niko Roberts to oversee men's basketball, sources told CBS Sports. A 2014 Kansas grad, Roberts has been with the Mountain West since 2021 and previously worked at the NCAA. He's replacing Paul Brazeau, who returned to the Big East in the same role.
