Kevin Haskin: Beaty talks a great game; coaching it will require patience
DALLAS – In a sense, the uphill climb David Beaty faces at Kansas can be framed by one of the most iconic landscapes on campus.
One the Jayhawks’ new football coach will add to his ever-evolving list of recruiting pitches.
“Coming to the University of Kansas, why wouldn’t I want to be there? Have you ever driven over Campanile Hill? Do it once. You’ll fall in love,’’ Beaty said.
“It’s a magical state and so are the people of that university.’’
Beaty is appealing to any of those KU supporters he can possibly meet and greet. Taking over the worst program in the Big 12, and possibly at the Championship Subdivision level, requires him to do so.
