Most diehard college football fans started peeking at Street and Smith’s, Athlon and the other annual preview yearbooks in June. I read them all too. Now just days before the Kansas football season opener, I took a closer look at Lindy’s Sports College Football periodical. It bills itself as America’s leading football authority. Street and Smith’s uses a similar banner.
David Beaty’s Jayhawks get little credit in Lindy’s section on Big 12 football. On recruiting, Brian Perroni admits the Jayhawks filled needs despite the lowest-rated class in the conference. He does include a mention of talented freshman running back Dom Williams.
