Sam Gleeson was one of the
approximately 21,500 KU students
living off-campus in 2007. Unlike
the majority of renters in Lawrence,
he lived in a place where he deter-
mined his own rent, as well as how
much it increased the next year.
Gleeson, Lawrence senior, lives
in The Olive House, the oldest
of the three student-led housing
cooperatives in Lawrence.
I like the idea of group housing
and being able to meet new peo-
ple, Gleeson said. And its pretty
cheap.
Aaron Paden, executive direc-
tor of the University of Kansas
Housing Association, said he
expected cooperative housing to
become a popular choice for stu-
dents because of the state of the
economy and the increasing cost
of rent.
Co-ops originally came about
because of the depression, Paden
said. And were nowhere close to
that, but I definitely think at a time
when the economy is down, co-ops
do well.
Tenants are responsible for pay-
ing property taxes, making repairs
and budgeting living expenses
out of a communal fund. Paden

Housing woes
Potential licensing fee plan could be implemented for housing more than 50 years old
BY MIKE BONTRAGER
mbontrager@kansan.com
Students living in old rental
houses and apartments could see
an increase in housing costs if
new legislature passes in Febru-
ary. Lawrences Planning and De-
velopment Services Department
will propose a new licensing plan
to require all rental properties
more than 50 years old to be li-
censed citywide.
Currently, only rental proper-
ties in zoned areas within the city
require licensing. Te proposed
program would add an estimated
2,500 rental properties to the li-
censing grid.
Brian Jimenez, code enforce-
ment manager of Planning and
Development Services, said the
goal of the program was to ensure
safe living standards for rent-
ers and help maintain property
values around the city. Jimenez
said the fee increase would be
used to fund three city positions:
two housing inspectors and one
licensing and inspection coordi-
nator. Each rental property must
be inspected at least once every
three years.
Ryan Keast, Olathe junior, has
had plumbing problems as a ten-
ant before. Keast heard about
many problems in older Law-
rence apartments from others,
including a friend whose apart-
ment burned down because of
electrical problems. Keast said
he didnt think the proposed plan
would cause problems.
It makes sense and its really
not a huge increase assuming the
tenants do pay for it, Keats said.
I mean, they increase our rent 1
to 2 percent every year.
Te fee for licensing will in-
crease from $25 per rental prop-
erty to $60. For rental properties
that dont currently have a license,
they will be required to pay the
new $60 fee. Tis fee increase is
the concern of many local land-
lords, such as Pedi Blevins, who
owns properties on Tennessee.
Its pretty crappy, Blevins
said.
Blevins said she already paid a
licensing fee for her rentals and
thought the state of the economy
put a strain on her expenses.
Candice Davis, another local
landlord, said she supported the
proposed expansion. Davis said
she did not currently license any
of her rental properties but sup-
ported the plan because of her
concern about the safety issues in
older Lawrence apartments.
If you are a landlord, you are
in a business and you have ob-
ligations to meet certain stan-
dards, Davis said.
Landlords price their rent-
als competitively with those of
newer apartment complexes and
fear that a licensing fee increase,
which might not afect newer
apartment complexes for years,
could afect their business.

cut hours

BY AMANDA THOMPSON
athompson@kansan.com
In an efort to conserve energy
and cut spending, the Spencer
Museum of Art and the Natural
History Museum have reduced
their hours of operation.
Te art museum began clos-
ing its galleries an hour ear-
lier each day beginning Jan. 12.
Te Natural History Museum
has been closing its galleries on
Mondays since late December.
Jen Humphrey, communica-
tions director at the Natural His-
tory Museum, said cost was the
driving factor in the decision to
cut hours, but she said museum
administrators also considered
the environment.
Anything that helps us keep
our energy bill low and reduces
the footprint of the University is
welcomed, Humphrey said.
Humphrey estimated the
Natural History Museum would
save $10,000 each year in salary
and utility costs.

City tears down mans
renovation project
DETROIT There are thou-
sands of buildings that should
be demolished in Detroit. Eric
Roslonski said his house wasnt
one of them.
Roslonski fled a lawsuit
against the city Monday, more
than two years after a house
he was restoring suddenly was
destroyed.
He said he put more than
$30,000 into the property on
the east side of Detroit after
buying it for $7,000. One day in
summer 2006, he couldnt fnd
13405 Flanders.
I drove up and down the
street three times where is
my house? Roslonski said.
His lawyer, Jefrey Dworin,
said the house was taken of a
demolition list, then apparent-
ly reinstated without Roslon-
skis knowledge.
Roslonski is suing Detroit for
his losses under a federal civil
rights law. He fxed another
house on the same street and
sold it for $85,000.
I see all these boarded-up
and burned-out houses. Im
trying to make the city a better
place, he said.

For some KU students, Tuesdays
class was just another day from the
syllabus. Yet for a number of others,
instructors opted to clear the class
schedule in order to televise the in-
auguration of Barack Obama, the
nations 44th president.
Stephen Ilardi, associate profes-
sor of psychology, said he decided
to show the inauguration in his
psychology class of more than 300
students because of its historical
magnitude. Te class before Ilardis
was canceled, allowing Ilardi to in-
vite his students to come in early to
watch the entire inauguration.
I am careful not to push my po-
litical opinion on my class, Ilardi
said, but I do think its important
to see historical events and under-
stand them.
Joshua Brown, Longmont, Colo.,
senior, watched the inauguration
in his psychology class. Brown said
being African-American made him
proud to see Obama become presi-
dent. He said he was unsure about
Obama at the beginning of the elec-
tion but ended up voting for him.
In the end he turned into some-
thing better for the country, Brown
said. Its a new chapter in America.
Te KU Honors Program
watched the inauguration at the
Nunemaker Center on its large TV,
welcoming students to stop by to
watch the ceremony on their way to
or from classes. Te center was able
to accommodate students because
technology added since the presi-
dential inauguration following the
2004 election. Sandra Wick, associ-
ate director of the Honors Program,
said she wanted to watch the inau-
guration for its signifcance.
I think all of us as staf and fac-
ulty here are very interested in it,
Wick said.
Celebrations were held through-
out Lawrence for the inaugura-
tion as well, including a show at
the Granada on Tuesday night.

WASHINGTON Stepping
into history, Barack Hussein
Obama grasped the reins of power
as Americas frst black president
on Tuesday, declaring the na-
tion must choose hope over fear,
unity of purpose over confict and
discord to overcome the worst
economic crisis since the Great
Depression.
In frigid temperatures, an exu-
berant crowd of more than a mil-
lion packed the National Mall and
parade route to celebrate Obamas
inauguration in a high-noon cer-
emony. Waving and cheering in
jubilation, they stretched from
the inaugural platform at the U.S.
Capitol toward the Lincoln Me-
morial in the distance.
With 11 million Americans out
of work and trillions of dollars
lost in the stock markets tumble,
Obama emphasized that his big-
gest challenge was to repair the
tattered economy lef behind by
outgoing President George W.
Bush.
Our time of standing pat, of
protecting narrow interests and
putting of unpleasant decisions
that time has surely passed,
Obama said. Starting today, we
must pick ourselves up, dust our-
selves of and begin the work of
remaking America.
Obama wove a thread of
personal responsibility and ac-
countability through his inau-
gural address. He spoke of a
new era of responsibility and
alluded to the inability or
unwillingness of Americans
to adjust to the passing of an
industrial-based economy.
Our economy is badly weak-
ened, a consequence of greed
and irresponsibility on the part
of some, but also our collective
failure to make hard choices and
prepare the nation for a new age,
he said.
Obamas election was cheered
around the world as a sign that
America will be more embrac-
ing, more open to change. To the
Muslim world, Obama said, we
seek a new way forward, based
on mutual interest and mutual re-
spect.
Still, he bluntly warned, To
those leaders around the globe
who seek to sow confict, or blame
their societys ills on the West
know that your people will judge
you on what you can build, not
what you destroy.
To those who cling to power
through corruption and deceit
and the silencing of dissent, know
that you are on the wrong side of
history, but that we will extend a
hand if you are willing to unclench
your fst, Obama said in his ad-
dress, which ran 18 minutes.
Te dawn of the new Democrat-
ic era ends eight years of Republi-
can control of the White House by
Bush, who leaves Washington as
one of the nations most unpopu-
lar presidents, the architect of two
unfnished wars and the man in
charge at a time of economic ca-
lamity.
In his speech, Obama said all
Americans had roles in rebuilding
the nation by renewing the tradi-
tions of hard work, honesty and
fair play, tolerance, loyalty and pa-
triotism.
Contradicting the objections
of Ronald Reagan and Bill Clin-
ton to big government, Obama
said, Te question we ask today
is not whether our government is
too big or too small, but whether
it works.
Our nation is at war, against a
far-reaching network of violence
and hatred. Our economy is badly
weakened. ... Homes have been
lost, jobs shed, businesses shut-
tered. Our health care is too costly,
our schools fail too many, and each
day brings further evidence that
the ways we use energy strengthen
our adversaries and threaten our
planet.
Bush following tradition
lef a note for Obama in the top
drawer of his desk in the Oval Of-
fce.
White House press secretary
Dana Perino said the theme of the
message which Bush wrote on
Monday was similar to what he
has said since election night: that
Obama is about to begin a fabu-
lous new chapter in the United
States, and that he wishes him
well.
Just afer noon, Obama stepped
forward on the West Front of the
Capitol to lay his lef hand on the
same Bible that President Abra-
ham Lincoln used at his frst in-
auguration in 1861. Te 35-word
oath of ofce, administered by
Chief Justice John Roberts, has
been uttered by every president
since George Washington.

Tuesday marked the inaugura-
tion of a president whom some KU
veterans of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan see as a critical com-
ponent in framing the future of the
Middle East.
Experiences in the region
brought diferent concerns for
the veterans, but they agreed that
Obamas selection of retired Marine
Gen. James L. Jones as his National
Security Adviser greatly increased
the presidents odds at achieving
stability.
Felix Zacharias, Wichita junior
and Marine Corps sergeant, said
having the retired general behind
the president gave him confdence
the right decisions were being made
on the behalf of the soldiers.
Tough former National Se-
curity Advisers Condoleeza Rice
and Stephen Hadley had plenty of
experience dealing with the diplo-
matic parts of foreign policy issues,
Zacharias said having actual mili-
tary experience in combat would
enable Gen. Jones to make better
decisions concerning the welfare of
troops and to limit casualties on the
ground.
I trust Gen. Jones and how he
thinks, Zacharias said. He under-
stands how it feels to fght and how
it feels to get hurt and how it feels to
be in combat.
Gen. Jones served 40 years in the
Marines, including operations in
Vietnam, the Persian Gulf and the
Balkans before fnishing his career
as the commander of NATO.
Dan Parker, McPherson senior
and former Marine, said Gen. Jones
experience with NATO would play
a key role in repairing bonds with
European countries.
Obamas other cabinet picks,
Hillary Clinton as secretary of state
and Robert Gates as secretary of
defense, also bolstered the conf-
dence of Army Capt. Gates Brown,
Lansing graduate student. Brown
served in Iraq during the second
half of 2006, until an explosion de-
stroyed his Humvee and shattered
his right leg in January 2007.
But while Iraq and its stabil-
ity have been the focus of media
clamor surrounding the Presidents
future foreign policy, both Brown
and Parker agreed that Afghanistan
should be the primary issue on the
Presidents foreign policy plate.
Afghanistan is where the vio-
lence started, Parker said, Right
now there is a lot more potential
for things to go wrong there than
in Iraq.
But on the home front, one
concern of Army veteran William
Stewart, Los Angeles senior, is the
allocation of defense funds through
the next four years.
I think we are wasting money
that could be useful elsewhere,
Stewart said. I think the money
were paying to private contractors
should come back home for veter-
ans programs.
Stewart, a member of Iraq Veter-
ans Against the War, works to help
veterans achieve success outside
the military and educate others on
the policies that directed military
action. Stewart said he wanted to
see more veterans getting the help
they needed afer returning home,
especially with readjusting to life
back home and coping with Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Although there may be a gap in
the amount of returning soldiers
who need help and the amount
who actually receive it, Parker said
shortfalls for veterans programs
werent in funding but in access.
Te Department of Veterans Af-
fairs doesnt have the means to re-
ally put the word out there about
whats available, Parker said.
In terms of marketing, Parker
said reaching the proper audience
would take a countless amount of
funds because of the diversity in
age range and physical demograph-
ics of veterans.
KU veterans said they were con-
fdent in the next administration as
long as Obama listened to his advis-
ers and acted in the best interests of
the men and women of the military
and the people at home who relied
on their service.

Legal battle about
Ledger drug video ends
LOS ANGELES The legal
battle over a video that purport-
edly shows Heath Ledger doing
drugs two years before his death
has ended, an attorney said
Tuesday.
Neville Johnson, an attorney
for the former People magazine
freelancer who briefy appears
on the tape and later sued to
get it destroyed, did not disclose
terms of the arrangement.
He would only say, The matter
has been resolved.
An attorney for Splash News
& Picture Agency, the paparazzi
frm that surreptitiously shot
Ledger in the freelancers hotel
room in 2006, said Tuesday he
could not comment.
The video surfaced after Led-
gers death last January. Enter-
tainment Tonight had plans to air
part of the footage and showed
a teaser, but backed of after
receiving pressure from stars and
publicists.
Another case seeking the
release of Ledgers $10 million
life insurance payout to his
daughter, Matilda Rose, is cur-
rently scheduled to go to trial in
August in Los Angeles Superior
Court.

T
heres a great mystery in
front of and across from
Watson library this year:
large-scale construction and
larger-scale holes that dont seem
to move. Its a mystery that never
should have been. The construc-
tion next to Bailey Hall was com-
pleted recently, but students and
faculty are sill in the dark about
plans for remaining construction
projects. The University should be
more forthcoming with informa-
tion pertaining to the construc-
tion at Watson and other con-
struction jobs around campus.
The current line of information
about construction comes from
the Department of Construction
Management. University
Relations puts out whatever info
DCM shares with it. University
Relations medium for communi-
cation is a bi-monthly magazine,
The Oread.
From the April 7, 2008, edi-
tion of The Oread, one learns
that the current construction is a
three-phase project that will cost
$8.9 million and last until 2010.
Depending on what phase were
in, different roadways are closed.
Thats about all the information
that has been published, so even
students who are inquisitive and
resourceful cant get the full scoop.
Though DCM plans to provide
University Relations with more
information by the end of January,
some students want to know
whats going on, and they want to
know now. The University isnt
doing enough to keep students
updated.
Heres a late effort
from The Kansan:
The purpose of the
construction is to
repair and modern-
ize steam tunnels that
were built in 1900. DCM Director
Jim Modig described them as
arteries for the university: hous-
ing steam pipes, electrical cords,
and data cables.
Phase one is virtually com-
plete, and all that remains to be
done is to reconstruct the land-
scape. Completion of this phase
has been delayed. Modig said the
contractors waited too long into
autumn to begin this last process,
so now seasonal conditions arent
conducive to replanting the lost
flora.
The other phases deal with
steam tunnels that are
under other parts of
the campus. Phase
two wont come into
effect until the sum-
mer, when its less of
an inconvenience to
close campus roads. Phase three
will come later and will close
the sidewalk between Watkins
Memorial Health Center and
Robinson Center.
The line of communication is
long and filtered, but it doesnt
have to be. If delays occur in
either phase two or three, where
will the information come from?

N
ow that President
Obama has taken
office, one of his big-
gest economic challenges will
be handling the bailout of
the financial industry. He has
indicated that he will continue
the bailout, a program initiated
by the Bush administration.
Though the recovery of financial
markets would help the strug-
gling economy, bailouts are not
the proper means to accomplish
this end.
Bailouts are detrimental to
the economy for a number
of reasons. First, they reward
failure. The United States is a
capitalist country. In capitalism,
if one firm fails it is forced out
of the market and replaced by
another that is able to perform
the function it could not. When
these failed firms are sustained
by bailouts and not forced to exit
the market, failure is rewarded.
As a result, firms are less moti-
vated to succeed because they
face no consequences for failure.
Additionally, because failed
firms are not forced out of the
market, the market as a whole
is weakened and prospects for
future growth are diminished.
Second, bailouts allow firms
to shirk responsible business
practices. A prime example is
Citigroup, a former financial
services giant that was crippled
by the global financial cri-
sis. Citigroup became deeply
involved in high-risk invest-
ments. Though these invest-
ments were successful for a time,
they eventually cost Citigroup
billions. The risk managers at
Citigroup should never have
allowed the company to obtain
such a high stake in risky invest-
ments. However, Citigroups
senior risk officer was a friend
of the man who oversaw the
buildup of these high-risk
investments. As a result, the risk
officers were hesitant to put a
stop to this massive build-up.
This was quite clearly a conflict
of interests. To bail out such
companies is foolish, as it sends
the message that companies will
not be punished for shady busi-
ness practices, but will instead
be saved by bailouts when they
fail.
Next, bailouts create far too
much governmental intervention
in the economy. When the gov-
ernment pours billions of tax-
payer dollars into private firms,
it is going to demand input
on how those funds are used.
Unfortunately, the government is
almost never successful when it
involves itself in the economy, as
evidenced by the current reces-
sion. Simply put, government is
more likely to create additional
problems than it is to solve the
ones that exist.
Finally, bailouts serve to
punish successful companies.
A company that has succeeded,
whether by a wiser allocation
of resources, smarter invest-
ment policies or better business
practices, is effectively punished
when the government bails out
its unsuccessful competitors.
Because bailouts force success-
ful firms to continue competing
with businesses that should be
out of the market, they discour-
age good firms and thereby
inhibit future growth.
Future growth is important to
economic recovery, and because
bailouts inhibit growth they are
not the means to a long-term
solution to our problem. Rather,
what we need is a return to more
capitalist policies. Weaker firms
need to be allowed to exit the
market, to be replaced by stron-
ger companies that will increase
growth prospects and lead the
economy on the road to recov-
ery.

MARIAM SAIFAN
Governor lacks leadership
Why Im rethinking
Barack Obama
As a loyal Democrat, I voted
for Barack Obama; a decision
Ive lately been second-guess-
ing. It began when he picked a
polarizing fgure a man who
misquoted Obama in order to
deny American citizens their
rights to deliver the invoca-
tion at his inauguration. Then
came the revelation that he
sold out gays by supporting
only civil unions for gays and
lesbians, after he once promised
to support nothing other than
marriage for all.
Now the Obamas have hired
an extremely expensive de-
signer to the stars to decorate
his new digs, to the tune of
$100,000. I wonder: was this
decision made before thinking
of the millions of children who
will sleep in shelters tonight?
What about the $10 trillion (and
counting) national debt?
I know that the president is
given money to refurbish the
living quarters of the White
House. Im also aware that this
presidents campaign billed him
as bucking tradition. Would
it have been that hard to say,
Thanks, but no thanks, to
the tax money he is allotted
to redecorate the recently
decorated private portion of the
White House, when Americans
are barely making ends meet?
No, for the Obamas nothing less
than the best will do, at all costs.
What about his campaigns
criticism of Republican ward-
robe expenditures during the
campaigns? And consider this
dismaying observation: Obama
has been championing an $800
billion stimulus package. As
he begs Congress to send us
money, with only a prayer that it
might help the economy, every
penny we dont have to pay in
taxes would help.
Already Obamas arrogance
has cost us. First it was pride,
then peoples very rights, and
now cold hard cash. What will
the Presidents arrogance cost
us in a year or two or eight?

of church and state. Keep
religion out of this, please.
n n n
You cant have it both ways.
Some people are pissed that
early on Obama showed a
lack of religion; now people
are pissed that this event was
religious. No one is ever going
to be happy. Just get over it.

I wish that we hadnt elected
a president just because hes
black. Dont get me wrong, I
love Obama, but I love him for
what he promised us, not the
color of his skin.

G
overnor Kathleen
Sebelius released her
plan to fix the states
budget woes last week, but unfor-
tunately the governor offered the
Legislature few options. Her plan
has the potential to lead to a $1
billion shortfall next fiscal year if
a serious cut in spending doesnt
happen soon.
The governors budget proposal
does not address the real prob-
lem, which is the excessive spend-
ing, that will continue to plague
the state unless serious cuts are
made. The current Fiscal Year
2009 budget, after the adjust-
ments made by the governors
budget recommendations, is still
a $247 million increase from the
Fiscal Year 2008 budget expendi-
tures. The attitude of unaccount-
able spending needs to end. The
government needs to track each
dollar spent to make sure every
dollar is working for Kansans and
not special interests, which have
been popular with previous bud-
gets. During the last ten years, the
state general fund has ballooned
more than $2 billion according
to the governors budget office
and can no longer be sustained.
With this in mind, the legislature
should keep all parts of the state
budget on the table for cuts.
Unfortunately, education
funding needs to be part of
the discussion. It accounts for
almost 50 percent of all state rev-
enue dollars spent. This means
that the legislature needs to be
accountable for each dollar spent.
Estimates from the Legislative
Research Department of dollars
spent at the state level project
that only about 60 cents of every
dollar make it into the classroom.
An increase in accountability of
our state dollars should not be
a short-term audit, either, but a
permanent part of the budgeting
process. This initiative could pro-
duce large savings for the Kansas
taxpayer.
Another area that needs to be
addressed is spending on trans-
portation. We are fortunate to
have good state highways and
roads, but this has come at a
steep cost to the state. Kansas
spends about $1.4 billion per
year on all aspects of the state
transportation network, the large
majority of which is spent on
roads. This is consistent with the
Comprehensive Transportation
Plan passed by the Legislature
a decade ago. The Long Range
Transportation Plan, the replace-
ment to the CTP that expires
this year, will request spending
increases of more than $1.5 bil-
lion, leaving total spending at
$2.9 billion per year.
With little direction from the
governor, the Legislature will
have many tough budget deci-
sions this year. Programs from
education funding to health care
to transportation will be exposed
to painful cuts, directly influenc-
ing the lives of many Kansans.
The legislature must take the
lead and reduce the size of our
state government to weather the
economic downturn. It will be
important for the state to make
sure the solution is appropriate,
realistic and addresses the real
problem: excessive spending.

Each KU sports team brought a
diferent favor of talent Tuesday
night as they competed for brag-
ging rights in the fourth annual
JayRock, a talent competition for
student-athletes.
Rivalries fared as the teams
performed a total of 14 skits dur-
ing the event, which Te Student
Athlete Advisory Committee, or
SAAC, sponsors.
We just saw how many skits
and all of them couldnt have
been more diferent, but all of
them are fun in their own right,
said Mike Harrity, assistant athlet-
ics director for student-athlete de-
velopment.
Afer winning the best overall
performance in the frst three years
of JayRock, mens track and feld
was the team to beat.
In the end, the swimming and
diving team dethroned mens track
and feld, taking home the best
overall performance.
In its skit, Eat to the Beat, the
swimming and diving team used a
fusion of food-related songs to cre-
ate a skit about a team that loved
food.
Aside from choosing the best
overall performance, three guest
judges also selected winners and
handed out awards for the funniest
skit, most talented skit, and most
entertaining skit.
Te judges included Paul Hef-
feron, former track student-athlete
and two-time JayRock champion,
Gwen Perkins, who is the wife of
Athletics Director Lew Perkins,
and celebrity judge Jennifer Wid-
erstrom, 2005 KU graduate and
former track and feld student-ath-
lete. Widerstrom is now known as
Phoenix on the NBC show Ameri-
can Gladiators.
Although JayRock is open only
to student-athletes, coaches and
administrators, Harrity said he
wouldnt rule out the possibility of
it becoming an event open to cam-
pus in the future.
Te original vision for JayRock
was to eventually get a quality
show that you can open up to the
public, Harrity said. I dont know
if the group is there yet, but this
year is defnitely a big step in that
direction.
Hannah McMacken, diver and
chairwoman of the Big 12 Confer-
ence SAAC, said about 100 people
attended the frst JayRock, but that
more than 300 athletes, coaches,
and administrators attended last
years JayRock.
Its a pretty big event for SAAC,
and each year more people are
coming, McMacken said. Its a
night celebrating hard work, ath-
letics, the talents and relationships
that we build.
Matt Baysinger, chairman for
the NCAA Division I SAAC and
former KU track athlete, said Jay-
Rock was a great opportunity for
student-athletes to spend time out-
side their sports and academics to
relax and have a good time.
We have so much time dedi-
cated to the things we already do
that its really easy to be narrow-
minded as far as what your day
is, Baysinger said. But when you
realize that its all a part of a bigger
picture and that KU Athletics is a
part of a bigger community, then
things like this are really great for
everyone involved.
JayRock began four years ago
when SAAC wanted to create a
camaraderie-building event for all
of the athletic teams.
Harrity was inspired to create
JayRock by a talent competition the
SAAC at the University of Michi-
gan sponsors. Michigan started the
competition, Mock Rock, in 1999
and it has been a hit since.
Michigans SAAC donates the
proceeds from Mock Rock to the
C.S. Mott Childrens Hospital in
Ann Arbor, Mich.
Te KU SAAC, which is known
for participating in community
outreach events such as the Special
Olympics, is aiming to make Jay-
Rock a fundraiser and donate pro-
ceeds to charity in the future.

than 50 years will be required
to have a license for each rental
space. Hampton Court, 1704
W. 24th St., for example, would
reach the 50-year mark next year
and Cedarwood Villa Apart-
ments, 2411 Cedarwood Ave.,
would require a license in five
years.
Landlords could pass the cost
on to tenants by increasing the
price of their rentals. To cover
the cost of the license, landlords
could raise rent $5 per month for
a currently unlicensed property.
Tough a jump from $25 to $60
seems signifcant, the price for
the license is typical compared to
other counties and states.
Te revision of the ordinance
will also ensure there is a local
agent acting as a correspondent
for each rental property, even if
the owner lives outside the city
or state. Tis confrms the ten-
ant is aware of future inspec-
tions and has someone to con-
tact locally about concerns.
If an inspector appears unex-
pectedly, Jimenez said, the tenant
has the right to refuse entry, even
if the landlord is present for the
inspection.
Most reports of code violations,
however, come from the student
population, Jimenez said. Te city
does not actively seek out code vi-
olations other than the inspection
every three years for currently li-
censed rental properties.

Saralyn Reece Hardy, director of
the art museum, said that the fnan-
cial situation was a primary factor
in reducing hours, but that it was
not the frst time the museum had
considered the well-being of the en-
vironment. Hardy said the museum
began working with the Center for
Sustainability and was making an
efort to think about energy conser-
vation by dimming and turning of
lights whenever possible.
We all in the museum have been
thinking more deeply about con-
serving energy and being respon-
sible citizens, Hardy said.
Jennifer Talbott, assistant to the
director of the art museum, said ad-
ministrators took care in deciding
how they would reduce the gallery
hours.
Talbott said the art museum used
weekly visitor counts to determine
the best time for conserving energy.
She said faculty found that the low-
est amount of people visited the
museum of art between 4 p.m. and
5 p.m.
Tis was not taken lightly, Tal-
bott said. We tried to track our au-
dience.
Although the museum tracks vis-
itors every week, Hardy said it took
about two weeks to put the informa-
tion together and decide when to
cut hours.
Talbott said the Nelson-Atkins
Museum of Art in Kansas City, Mo.,
also shortened its hours, and said
saving energy and cutting costs in
that way was a spreading trend.
Tis is not the exception to the
rule right now, Talbott said.
Tough the gallery hours were
reduced, Talbott said the rest of the
staf at the art museum would con-
tinue to work normal hours. Hardy
said the art museums business of-
fces, classes and library would not
be afected by the change.

said students learned life skills
they couldnt in a normal rental
property. Gleeson, like Paden, said
living in a co-op had been educa-
tional as well as helpful to his own
lifestyle.
Its nice to have a system where
youre not just treating the house
well to get your deposit back, but
youre treating the house well
because its yours, Gleeson said.
Chris Tadlock, a cooperative
housing resident,
moved into The
Sunflower House
last August and said
that although the
duties could seem
daunting, coop-
erative living didnt
require any more
work than tradi-
tional housing.
Most people
could do it, Tadlock said. It takes
adjusting, but then again you need
to take care of a regular home.
Chris Jones, Lawrence graduate,
lived in The Ad Astra House when
it opened in 2005. He said the divi-
sion of responsibilities improved
how his housemates functioned as
roommates as well as friends.
Jones said living with 10 people
was easier because they had a list
of duties they could reference.
There was a lot of diverse and
different kinds of people there,
Jones said. I think it made it an
educational experience.
Gleeson said sharing the space
had its challenges, but the chal-
lenges werent unique to coopera-
tive living.
Living with seven people can
be difficult, Gleeson said. But
the problems Ive run into in a
co-op are the same
problems you
would run into with
everybody else.
Paden said that
as with all liv-
ing arrangements,
cooperative living
wasnt perfect. He
said he thought
cooperative living
would continue to
thrive as well as enrich society.
In a recession, people think
that if they were to pool resources
they would do much better in
general, and I think well see more
of that given the recession, Paden
said. Its an exciting time to be
working with co-ops.

DAILY KANSAN DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD THE UNIVERSITY
BY JAYSON JENKS
jjenks@kansan.com
An alarming trend is taking hold
of coach Bonnie
Henricksons team,
and it has nothing
to do with Kansas
shooting problems.
After losing to
Texas Tech 57-49
and shooting
just 28 percent,
including a few
missed layups
Henrickson said
the most disappointing and inex-
plicable part of Saturdays game
was not only the Jayhawks lack of
ofensive rebounds, but also their
continued lack of efort in that
category.
On a night when they hit just
20 percent of their frst-half shots,
the Jayhawks didnt make things
any easier by grabbing only two
ofensive rebounds.
Weve done that, Henrickson
said. Tats not the frst night its
happened. Weve
got a lot of conf-
dence in the guy
taking the shot...
But were not get-
ting in were not
being tough.
Toughness is
what the Jayhawks
will need tonight,
though, when they
head to Nebraska
for a 7 p.m. game.
No player seemed worried afer
the Texas Tech game about the
Jayhawks poor shooting night.
Kansas entered the matchup
ranked second in the Big 12 in
team feld-goal percentage but,
as junior guard LaChelda Jacobs
said, Youre going to have nights
where you dont shoot the ball
well.
Every player, though, voiced
concern about Kansas perceived
lack of efort on the ofensive
boards. Tat Kansas missed 20
frst-half shots, yet grabbed only
two offensive rebounds, pretty
much tells the story.
Its heart, its a desire, its an
intensity, its a pride factor, junior
guard Kelly Kohn said. It takes a
little bit of skill and athleticism
but, at the same time, you have
to have the mindset of Tats my
ball.

onventional wisdom says
a lot of things, especially
about sports.
One frequently cited truism is
the existence of a freshman wall.
Tis imaginary barrier usually
pops up once freshmen are sub-
jected to the rigors of conference
play. Teir play drops of, and
their inexperience results in more
egregious errors. If conventional
wisdom is correct, then this is the
time of year when Kansas sizable
freshman class ought to run head-
frst into this wall.
But despite the name, con-
ventional wisdom is frequently
misguided.
Take the notion that a freshman
is bound to hit a wall somewhere
during early conference play.
Tyshawn Taylor doesnt seem
to think much of that. In fact, he
seems dead-set on disproving it.
Since Big 12 play began against
Kansas State, Taylor has continued
as the most efective freshman in
the conference.
In those games, Taylor has
played an average of 29 minutes.
Playing time has helped cement
him as a steady force next to pre-
season All-Big 12 guard Sherron
Collins. Taylors ability to handle
the ball has allowed Collins the
freedom to operate in the open
court and fnd his own shot.
Without Taylor playing well at
point guard, Collins would likely
fnd it more difcult to score at the
rate he has. Taylors defense has
also eased the burden on Collins
shoulders.
But Taylors contributions
to the young Jayhwawks go far
beyond the intangible.
Taylor has scored an average of
15 points per game since confer-
ence play began, up fve from his
season average which ranks
third behind Collins and Cole
Aldrich. Were he forcing up shots
outside the natural fow of the
ofense, his scoring average would
be less impressive. But thats not
the case.
Taylor is shooting a ridiculous
75 percent from the foor. Taylor
could probably score more than
he already does if he looked for
his shot more ofen. But his most
important statistic since the team
has begun conference play isnt
his scoring average, assists total or
steals total. No, the most impor-
tant statistic Taylor is partially
responsible for is 3-0. Tat is the
record Kansas has amassed to
begin Big 12 play.
If Taylor were slamming into
some talent-depreciating wall,
Kansas wouldnt have dispatched
Kansas State as easily as it did. Nor
would the Jayhawks have trounced
Colorado, easily walking away
with their frst road victory of the
season. On Monday night, Taylor
scored in the frst half, helping
Kansas distance itself from Texas
A&M. He was quiet in the second
half, in part because he didnt need
to make much noise.
In that, Taylors best attribute
becomes clear. He is perfectly will-
ing and able to do what needs to
be done in order to win.
Its that same selfessness that
has enabled Taylor to tear down
the freshman wall.

Freshman transfer JefWithey will
be watching games fromthe bench in
his suit and tie until next January, when
he become eligible to join the Jayhawks.
Withey, who will sit out for a year after

be able to practice with the Jayhawks
during the rest of this season, but cant
begin playing in games until next year.
BY cASE KEEFEr
ckeefer@kansan.com
Jeff Withey arrived in
Lawrence a week ago without a
coat.
Withey, a 6-foot-10 center
and the newest Jayhawk after
transferring from Arizona,
never needed one growing up
in San Diego or during his first
college semester in Tucson, Ariz.
Luckily for Withey, Adidas pro-
vides student-athletes with free
Kansas winter gear.
Even with the coat, Withey
isnt comfortable with the below-
freezing conditions Kansas
endures this time of year. But
hes not going to let the weather
or anything else temper
his enthusiasm about the oppor-
tunity he has at Kansas.
Im just excited to be here,
Withey said. I just wish I could
play right now.
For now, Withey will have
to settle for practicing with the
Jayhawks and watching games
from the end of the bench in a
shirt and tie. Because he trans-
ferred, Withey will not be eli-
gible to play for the Jayhawks
until the end of the Fall 2009
semester.
Kansas coach Bill Self doesnt
necessarily view the delay as a
negative. When Self looks at
Withey, he sees the same thing
everyone else does a tall, skin-
ny 18-year-old full of potential.
Witheys height isnt going
anywhere, and his potential can
only grow with a years worth of
practices. That leaves Witheys
220-pound size, which Self said
he hoped would increase.
He needs to put on some
weight, Self said. I really believe
we can get 20 pounds on him by
the time hes eligible. I think hes
going to have a chance to impact
our program as one of those big
guys in some capacity.

im Jankovich is accus-
tomed to winning 25
games each year.
When Jankovich was an as-
sistant coach under Bill Self for
fve years one at Illinois and
four at Kansas Self s squads
averaged 26 victories per year.
So it comes as no surprise that
Self s former right-hand man
is guiding Illinois State down
the same path he helped guide
Illinois and
Kansas. Te
Redbirds won
25 games last
season
Jankovichs
frst in charge
and seem
to be on the
same path
this year,
winning 16 of their frst 18.
Tim is not a good coach
Tim is a great coach, Self said.
Hes done a lot of things to help
us here, to help me personally.
Afer inheriting a team that
fnished ninth in the Missouri
Valley Conference the year
before, Jankovich guided the
Redbirds to a second-place con-
ference fnish and an NIT berth.
Tis season Illinois State is 5-2 in
the Valley, trailing only upstart
Northern Iowa.
Jankovich is the second of
Self s assistants to make a splash
on the college basketball scene
in recent years. Kentucky coach
Billy Gillispie lef Self s staf at
Illinois afer the 2002 season, frst
getting his feet wet at UTEP then
moving on to Texas A&M and
eventually, Kentucky.
Gillispie bulldogged his way
into arguably college basketballs
most prestigious job. Jankovich
could be the next Self assistant
coach to jump to power-confer-
ence basketball. He certainly has
the support of his former boss.
Hes creative ofensively, Self
said. Hes got a good way with
people, and hes got his team
guarding. Tem winning is no
surprise to any of us. But the
schedule is going to get tougher.
Im sure he knows that, but hes a
really good basketball coach.

Say what you will about
Landon Donovan, the guy is
the most talented and produc-
tive feld player the United
States has ever produced.
But as much success as Dono-
van has had he is the United
States national teams all-time
leading goal scorer with 37 goals
there has always been one
blemish on his rsum. He just
couldnt seem to cut it in Europe.
Two failed spells at German club
Bayer Leverkusen were chalked
up to immaturity.
Tats why its so exciting to
see Donovan having success at
the beginning of his three-month
loan with Bayern Munich. No,
these arent competitive matches
the German Bundesliga is
on winter break until the end of
January but Donovan looks
as though he belongs alongside
Luca Toni and Miroslav Klose.
He has two goals so far, and
reports suggest Bayern may make
the move a permanent one. U.S.
fans have to be drooling at the
prospect of an on-form and mo-
tivated Donovan as World Cup
qualifying rsums.

PITTSBURGH Larry
Fitzgerald might be the most
scouted player in Pittsburgh
Steelers history. For two years,
they needed only to look out their
ofce windows to watch him.
Fitzgeralds exceptional
hands, his knack for making dif-
fcult catches while heavily cov-
ered and his high jumper-like
leaping ability might pose the
biggest obstacle to the Steelers
beating the Arizona Cardinals
in the Super Bowl on Feb. 1.
As Steelers coach Mike Tom-
lin suggested Tuesday, scouting
and a good game plan alone
arent enough to slow Fitzger-
ald, whose 419 yards receiving
are the most in a single NFL
postseason, with one game re-
maining.
If you get down the feld
one-on-one with him, hes going
to come back with the football,
Tomlin said. He is the best in
the world at that, bar none.
Not that any one needs to re-
mind the Steelers.
Displayed in their Heinz Field
press box, alongside pictures of
former and current Steelers play-
ers, is a large photo of Fitzgerald
leaping above three Texas A&M
defenders to make a touchdown
catch while at Pitt in 2003. He
couldnt have been more covered,
yet it made no diference. Te
football was there, and, in Fitzger-
alds mind, nobody else was going
to get it.
Ask the Philadelphia Eagles
about plays like that.
Fitzgeralds series of three, can-
you-top-this touchdown catches
in the NFC championship game
Sunday prevented an all-Pennsyl-
vania Super Bowl. It also set up an
improbable matchup between the
Cardinals, an old franchise that
could hardly be less successful,
and the Steelers, an old franchise
that could hardly be more success-
ful.
Larry Fitzgerald, is quite sim-
ply, the best receiver in the world
down the feld in one-on-one situ-
ations, Tomlin said. If were to
be successful in Tampa, we need
to limit the number of times were
downfeld with him one-on-one.
Invariably, hes going to come up
with the football. Te (video) tape
tells us that.
Now, Fitzgerald probably needs
to be better than Steelers receiver
Hines Ward if the Cardinals are to
win their frst NFL championship
since 1947 three cities and 61-
plus years ago.
Fitzgerald is one of three Ari-
zona 1,000-yard receivers, along
with Anquan Boldin and former
Pittsburgh high school star Steve
Breaston. But Fitzgerald might be
the toughest matchup problem all
season for the Steelers.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald is the center of the Pittsburgh Steelers
game planning going into the Super Bowl on Feb. 1. Fitzgerald is one of three Cardinals receivers
with 1,000 yards this season, and he has amassed 419 yards in the posteason alone.

OKLAHOMA CITY Oklaho-
ma State hired Bill Young on Tues-
day to be its defensive coordinator,
luring him back to his alma mater
from Miami.
Young played at Oklahoma State
from 1965-67 and has had two pre-
vious stints on the coaching staf.
Young, 62, had told a Miami
newspaper earlier this week that
deciding between coaching with
the Hurricanes or Cowboys lef
him very torn.
It means a lot to me to come
back to OSU because I am a gradu-
ate, I played there and now we are
back as part of the Cowboy family,
Young said in a statement. My wife
and I are very excited to get back to
Stillwater and Oklahoma State.
Young flls the last of four va-
cancies on coach Mike Gundys
staf. Te defensive coordinators
job was the most prominent, va-
cated in early December when Tim
Beckman lef afer two seasons to
become the head coach at Toledo.
Oklahoma State fnished 9-4
last season, losing to Oregon in
the Holiday Bowl, and was ranked
No. 16 in the fnal Associated Press
poll. But the Cowboys struggled
defensively.
Tey fnished 93rd among 119
teams in total defense, allowing
405.54 yards per game, and 76th in
scoring defense at 28.1 points per
game.
Miami was 28th in total defense
(317.46) and 56th in scoring de-
fense (24.1) last season.
Young spent one season at Mi-
ami. In 2007, he was defensive co-
ordinator for Kansas and the Jay-
hawks ranked 12th in the country
in yards allowed.
Hes been successful every-
where hes been, Gundy said in
a statement. Its great to have an
OSU graduate and a former player
as an addition to the staf.

ASSociAtEd PRESS
WASHINGTON Muhammad
Ali and Magic Johnson had prime
seats at the Capitol. LeBron James
watched from a hotel room in Los
Angeles with his two sons. Across
the country, coaches rescheduled
practices, and even the Super
Bowl had to take a back seat Tues-
day to the inauguration of Barack
Obama.
Tis day means a lot to inner-
city kids, to African-American
kids, to everyone, said Cleveland
Cavaliers star James, who contrib-
uted $20,000 to Obamas campaign
but couldnt attend the swearing-in
because his team is on a West Coast
road trip.
Tis day will last forever. It will
be in books. It will be in schools.
It will be in classes. It will be on
test questions. It means a lot not
only on this day, but for the rest of
the days to come and the years to
come.
It takes a lot to bring the sports
world to a standstill, but there was
no ignoring the magnitude of the
moment. Pittsburgh Steelers coach
Mike Tomlin pushed back his frst
pre-Super Bowl news conference
one hour so it wouldnt confict
with the inauguration.
What were doing here today
pales with whats going on in our
nations capital, Tomlin said.
Te Boston Celtics, on the way
to Miami for a road game, voted to
change their fight schedule and ar-
rive in time for the players to watch
the ceremony from their hotel,
even though coach Doc Rivers of-
fered to tape it for them.
Tey said, No, we want to see
it live. We think its that impor-
tant, Rivers said. One of them
said, Twenty or 30 years from now,
I want to say I saw him speak live
when he came in. I guess it will be
like JFK in a lot of ways. Im glad
our guys have the awareness of real
life.
Guard Ray Allen upped them all,
attending the inauguration in per-
son with Celtics owner Steve Pagl-
wiuca before rejoining the team in
Florida.
Pagliuca said he was proud to
represent a Celtics team that was
the frst in the NBA to draf a black
player and to hire a black coach.
It was people coming together;
kind of a peaceful feeling came
over the crowd, Pagliuca told Te
Associated Press. Te crowd had
a hope and a joy. For that many
people to be that peaceful was very
moving.
In Fairfax, Va., George Mason
mens basketball coach Jim Lar-
ranaga used Yes, we can! as his
thought for the day when practice
began at 11:30 a.m. He pulled his
players of the court 27 minutes
later and took them to the locker
room to watch the swearing-in and
Obamas speech. Te players broke
out in applause several times, then
returned to fnish practice.
Even ESPN deviated from its
sports programming to broadcast
the swearing-in, and ESPN Classic
followed with a 10-hour Breaking
Barriers marathon featuring Afri-
can-American athletes.

MELBOURNE, Australia Ra-
fael Nadal ditched his trademark
sleeveless top in favor of a more
conservative T-shirt.
His bulging biceps may no longer
be exposed to view, but theyre cer-
tainly still driving the top-ranked
players muscular approach to the
game.
Te 22-year-old Spaniard bullied
Christophe Rochus around Rod
Laver Arena on Tuesday night with
some brutal forehands and 10 aces
in a 6-0, 6-2, 6-2 frst-round win at
the Australian Open.
He hit 47 winners in 22 games
and Rochus, a Belgian who turned
30 last month, could get nowhere
near most of them.
Having the last match of the
opening round had its advantages
for Nadal. Hed already had a chance
to see how Roger Federer, defend-
ing champion Novak Djokovic and
fourth-ranked Andy Murray had
progressed.
He would get another look at
Federer and Djokovic in the sec-
ond round Wednesday. Match two
in Federers quest to tie Pete Sam-
pras record 14th Grand Slam title
is against Russian Evgeny Korolev.
Nadal defected a question about
his intentions with such an aggres-
sive start. He was less interested
in upping the ante on his highly
ranked rivals, he said, than in gaug-
ing himself afer a 1-month layof
for tendinitis in his right knee.
I am no thinking nothing about
this, he said. I just think about try
to play well myself. Roger and No-
vak and Murray, they are far (away)
in the draw.
I just can play with them in
semifnals or fnals, no? I have to
think (only) about next match right
now.
His next match is against 26-year-
old Croatian Roko Karanusic, who
was ranked 92nd and has never
gone past the second round at a
major.
No. 9 James Blake beat Canadian
Frank Dancevic 6-4, 6-3, 7-5 in the
other night match, joining fellow
American men No. 7 Andy Rod-
dick, Mardy Fish and Amer Delic
in the second round. Te other
three are in action Wednesday.
Te Williams sisters navigated
the frst step in the path to a poten-
tial semifnal showdown and, rath-
er than do their own thing on the
days between singles matches, have
decided to team up in the doubles.
Serena Williams opened her
campaign for a 10th major and
to continue her odd-year pattern of
Australian titles that stretches back
to 2003 with a 6-3, 6-2 victory
over 123rd-ranked Yuan Meng.
Te temperature topped 104 de-
grees during the match, prompting
Williams to fnish points quickly,
spend time in the shade and con-
serve fuel.
I was able to just take my time
and play a lot slower, not giving
1,000 percent, she said. I think it
was pretty important for me not to
... go crazy out there.
Te temperature had dropped to
79 degrees for Venus Williams 6-3,
6-3 win over Angelique Kerber of
Germany.
Olympic gold medalist Elena
Dementieva beat Germanys Kris-
tina Barrois to extend her winning
streak to 11 matches. No. 13 Victo-
ria Azarenka of Belarus and 2006
champion Amelie Mauresmo of
France also made it through.
Murray needed only 12 games
and 45 minutes to reach the second
round, advancing when Andrei
Pavel retired while trailing 6-2, 3-1
due to a back problem.
Since his career-best run to the
fnal at the U.S. Open, hes grown
in confdence and is now talking
openly about going one better.
He lost to Federer at the U.S.
Open, but has beaten the Swiss star
three times since then. Hes also
had two wins over Nadal and one
over third-ranked Djokovic.
Te 21-year-old Scotsman is not
the only one encouraged by the
run: British bookmakers are listing
him as co-favorite to win the Aus-
tralian Open.
Nadal didnt say whether the new
white, gray and blue T-shirt he wore
against Rochus was an attempt for a
more mature look, or that it would
be a permanent fxture.

The
Tose assets are intangibles
something each player must change
and decide to instill on her own.
But Kansas does have a more tan-
gible and physical approach
for working on rebounding.
In practice the Jayhawks place
a plastic bubble, or lid, over the
rim so every shot is a missed shot.
Ten, players work on blocking out
and, at the same time, attacking
the basket in search of an ofensive
rebound.
We do a lot of drills with that,
but its all about efort, Jacobs said.
When you try to go to get ofen-
sive rebounds, its all about efort.
Tats an attitude the Jayhawks
must reshape quickly.
Kansas takes on the struggling
Cornhuskers tonight, who at 0-3
constitute the bottom of the Big
12.
And Kansas, 1-2 in the confer-
ence, cant aford another loss with
consecutive games against ranked
teams looming on the schedule.
Still, regardless of how the
Jayhawks shoot against the
Cornhuskers, they must be able to
create other scoring opportunities
through ofensive rebounds.
When we are struggling from
the feld, we just have to have
another solution, another answer,
Jacobs said. Weve got to ofensive
rebound or something like that to
pick up the slack.
StruggleS aSide
from rebounding
A lack of ofensive rebounding
highlighted Kansas loss to Texas
Tech, but it wasnt the only prob-
lem the Jayhawks had.
Junior forward Danielle McCray
struggled for the third consecutive
game, making just seven of 24 shots
and turning the ball over seven
times. In the past three games,
McCray has made just 29 percent
of her shots and has 14 turnovers.
Shes in the worst funk of her
career, Henrickson said. And I
cant tell you shes practiced any
diferently. She looks just like that
in practice.
Afer the loss to Texas Tech,
Henrickson also noted Kansas lack
of an inside presence. For much of
the game, the Jayhawks settled for
outside jump shots.
Sophomore center Krysten
Boogaard had just four feld-goal
attempts and scored eight points.
I didnt think Krysten worked
and gave us numbers. I saw her
jersey number once and I saw
Porschas (Weddingtons) jersey
number once as far as low-post
presences, Henrickson said. She
kept trying to hide behind and
have us lob it over the top.

Fans will have to take Self s
word for it, because its going to be
a while before anyone sees Withey
compete.
By most accounts, Withey plays
like a traditional center.
Withey says he likes to face up,
shoot the ball, drop-step, dunk the
ball.
As you can physically see, hes
very tall and hes very long, Self
said. And hes a very good shot-
blocker and can alter shots and run,
and he has great touch.
During his senior year at Horizon
High School in San Diego, Withey
averaged 21 points, 13 rebounds,
seven blocks and four assists. His
productivity made him a highly
sought-after recruit out of high
school. Rivals.com ranked Withey
as the No. 36 pros-
pect and eighth-
best center in the
nation last year.
Thats how
his topsy-turvy
recruiting tale
began. Withey
took an unofficial
visit to Kansas for
Late Night in the
Phog in 2006.
The Jayhawks were one of the
finalists to get Witheys commitment
before he decided on Louisville.
Temporarily.
Withey changed his mind
before signing a letter of intent and
instead committed to
Arizona and coach
Lute Olson. Then,
Olson announced his
retirement before the
season.
Withey and his
parents said they felt
betrayed. He asked
to be released from
his letter of intent.
Eventually, Arizona
obliged.
Withey re-opened his recruit-
ment and schools such as Kansas,
Texas, Cincinnati and San Diego
State courted him. Kansas stuck
out because of Witheys relationship
with the coaches and the develop-
ment of sophomore center Cole
Aldrich.
The coaches are a great group of
guys, Withey said. And you can see
how great of coaches they are by the
way Cole has gotten so much better
in the last year.
Withey first met Aldrich in 2006
while they both were visiting Kansas
for Late Night. Now, the two are fac-
ing off daily in practice. Witheys
recruiting journey has come full
circle.
Withey said he knew Aldrich
would help him improve.
Aldrich is similarly joyful to have
another near 7-footer to practice
against.
Hes a great kid, great athlete
and great in the classroom all-
around, Aldrich said. Its exciting
to get another big body down there
to bang.
Weather be darned, Withey said
he believed he wound up in the per-
fect situation.
I just looked at it and decided
this was the best place for me to get
better and hopefully go to the NBA,
Withey said.

Tipof scheduled for 7:05 p.m. at Devaney Center in Lincoln, Neb.
Who to watch out for...
Junior forward Cory Montgomery. She isnt the fashiest or most talented player in the Big 12 North, but she can score buckets in bunches. She averages
13 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. But with just 13 assists in 16 games, its apparent that when she gets a touch inside, shes going up.
What Kansas can expect...
A cold shooting night from the Jayhawks still could hang with the Huskers output on the scoreboard. The Huskers average just 65.9 points per game
compared to the Jayhawks 71.8 per game.
Why Kansas will win...
With Big 12 powers Kansas State and Texas A&M on the schedule in the next week, the Jayhawks will seize an opportunity to even their conference record
against a team winless in the Big 12.
How is the game important...
Kansas did not win on the road last season, and a road victory early in the season would give the team confdence outside Allen Fieldhouse.
magic number...
40 The number of steals in 16 games for Husker junior Yvonne Turner. With Sade Morris still recovering from a hit to the head, the Jayhawks will have
to handle the ball to avoid giving up easy layups to Turner and her teammates.

kerry locklin to join
coach Manginos staf
Coach Mark Mangino
completed his 2009 staf
Tuesday upon hiring Fresno
State defensive line coach
Kerry Locklin to hold the
same
position at
Kansas.
The
move
comes
a week
after Bill
Miller was
added as
lineback-
ers coach and co-defensive
coordinator.
The job became available
in December when Joe Bob
Clements announced he was
leaving the Jayhawks to join
new Kansas State coach Bill
Snyders coaching staf.
Locklin joins Kansas
having spent the previ-
ous nine seasons with the
Bulldogs. Under his tute-
lage, two linemen became
Western Athletic Conference
Defensive Players of the Year
and three currently rank in
Fresno States top fve for
career sacks.
Kerry is an outstanding
fundamental football coach
who has done a tremendous
job coaching the defensive
line at Fresno State, Mangi-
no said in a statement. We
are excited to have him as
part of our coaching staf.
Locklin inherits a Kansas
defensive line that returns
three starters, including
sophomore Jake Laptad,
who fnished second on the
team with seven sacks and
earned honorable mention
All-Big 12 honors at seasons
end.
I feel this is a school with
a rich tradition and is an
up-and-coming program,
Locklin said.
Kansas is very similar to
