Journal-World review finds Kansas Athletics Inc. needs about $6 million in extra ticket sales after Memorial Stadium posted its lowest sales in over a decade. The piece questions whether new facilities can reverse the decline and restore revenue momentum for KU football.
The Journal World obtained annual ticket sale totals from 2006 to 2017, revealing a spike after KU’s 2007 season and 2008 Orange Bowl win, a plateau post 2009 Mangino ouster, then a sharp decline to 3.4 million in 2017. The university’s 350 million facility plan marked a major financial bet amid these trends.
Lawmakers wrapped up 99 calendar days at the State house approving a school finance plan adding over 500 million dollars annually for K 12, higher education, and social services. They enacted a domestic violence gun ban and left tax cuts and a concealed carry age change for later. House Speaker Ron Ryckman Jr. cited record funding for KPERS social services and schools.
Lawrence officials vote to defer finalizing a revamped Community Police Review Board and revisit its ability to review bias investigations. Commissioner Ananda urged access to full investigation files, arguing it would show commitment to equitable policing, while police unions warn of potential issues.
