    Is the new Kansas Governor a WSU Alumni? If so, is it possible he will use his influence to get the Shockers scheduled with K-State and KU? I anticipate a few "I don't care if we play them" responses. Keep in mind that playing them would completely solve our scheduling problems.
    It won't happen. Legislation shouldn't have to be used and there are too many from the other schools who wouldn't allow its passage anyway.

      By influencing, I didn't necessarily mean by way of legislation.

        I don't think it'll happen with anything less than legislation. I know Iowa does it with the threat of legislation, but I don't think that kind of influence is around Topeka. No matter who is running things.

          Nope.

          Brownback went to KSU and law school at KU.

          I believe former Governor Mark Parkinson is the first (and only) Kansas governor who is an alumni of WSU. He earned his JD from KU.
