Don’t touch that refears to jeers at Kansas fans over Roy Williams
Kansas Jayhawks fans shifted from mourning Roy Williams departure to warning Williams to leave KU recruits alone. Williams left after 15 seasons marked by NCAA tournaments and multiple Deep runs, including two final appearances, amid mixed reactions from players and fans. Williams praised Kansas in Chapel Hill but ESPN remarks sparked tampering accusations from KU figures and supporters. Despite anger, KU tradition remains strong as fans defend Williams and the program.

The ag budget as a fat easy target in budget fights
The piece argues the ag budget is a prime target amid partisan battles over Bush's 726 billion tax cut and large deficits. It notes House and Senate clashes, looming farm-bill expiry in 2007, and potential annual cuts rising from 1.8 to 3.1 billion by 2008, with broader Medicare and AMT changes looming amid Iraq spending. It cites analysts and an estimate of 220 thousand dollars to keep a soldier in Iraq per year.
