In order for Kobe Baynes to play football for Kansas this season after his transfer from Louisville, he has to apply for, and be granted, a run-off waiver.
You may ask what that is. In principle, it’s not complicated — but it can be. #kufball

More on this storyline
After listening to 11 days of at times graphic testimony, a group of nine federal jurors deliberated for approximately three and a half hours before reaching their decision. -via CNN / August 24, 2022
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on Wednesday honored the legendary Kobe Bryant by praising a game statistic that usually would not be celebrated. The NBA icon Abdul-Jabbar, 75, posted a tribute to the late, beloved Bryant on his Substack newsletter to remember his fellow Los Angeles Laker on 8/24, aka Kobe Bryant Day. -via People / August 24, 2022
To honor his friend on this year’s 8/24 (Bryant’s two NBA numbers), Abdul-Jabbar noted that others would likely focus on the obvious accolades and awards, but he wanted to highlight something different that Abdul-Jabbar found most impressive: “Kobe Bryant missed the most career field goals in NBA history. He missed 14,481 times.” Calling that stat “the foundation of his greatness as an athlete,” Abdul-Jabbar said what would otherwise be perceived as a negative flew in the face of what most athletes fear most: Losing. -via People / August 24, 2022
