Condoms, Viagra and plastic sur-

gery all have one thing in common:

They cash in on penises and mens
relationships to their genitalia.
In Japan, that relationship has
snowballed into a full-blown indus-
try.
Gregory Pflugfelder, an East Asian
language and culture professor at
Columbia University, will address the
body parts history and business impli-
cations in his lecture, Private Parts
and Public Concerns: Erecting the
Modern Japanese Penis, Wednesday,
March 28 at 7:30 p.m. in the Malott
Room of the Kansas Union.
Its not just the body part but
how its perceived and understood
by the Japanese people and how its
been studied, tested, understood and
thought about, said Megan Greene,
director of the Center for East Asian
Studies.
The lecture offers a new look at
the culture of a country that might be
best known to students because of its
contributions to pop culture.
A lot of times we think of contem-
porary Japan as sort of Hello Kitty,
and I think youll get a deeper under-
standing from this, said Leslie Von
Holten, the centers program coor-
dinator.
Another pop culture icon that hails
from Japan is the focus of another
lecture from the center in April the
samurai.
Hitomi Tonomura, a profes-
sor of history and womens studies
at Stanford University, will discuss
the often overlooked aspects of the
familiar cultural figure in her lecture,
Samurai Beyond Tom Cruise: Letters
of a Family Man in the Fourteenth-
century War in the Mallot Room in
the Kansas Union at 7 on Thursday,
April 12.
Greene hopes that the lec-
tures attract both experts from the
University and students who might
not normally be interested in learning
about Japan.
Ben Martin, a sophomore from
Olathe, thinks that its important for
students, especially liberal arts majors,
to take advantage of the opportunities
to learn more about foreign languages
and cultures through both classes and
lectures.
I think they should definitely
advertise those more because theyre
interesting to go to and theyre free,
Martin said. You get to hear influen-
tial people speak, which would prob-
ably cost a lot anywhere else.

A recent study at the University
found women who succeed in
science, technology, engineer-
ing and mathematics, or STEM,
overcome certain psychological
obstacles. Distance from privilege,
or factors such as social status and
educational background, is more
important than demograph-
ics when determining successes
and achieving power in society,
according to Barbara Kerr, pro-
fessor of counseling psychology
at the University and collaborator
on the study.
Additionally, someones per-
ception of himself or herself in
comparison to the rest of society
can affect success and their con-
tinuation in the field.
Research shows that how
people feel about their level of
privilege is more important than
their actual state in understand-
ing their well being, career devel-
opment and other variables, Kerr
said.
Kerr also found that combin-
ing distance from privilege with
the level of attention toward
romantic relationships could pre-
dict persistence in STEM fields.
The more one focuses on rela-
tionships during his or her under-
graduate years, the less likely they
will advance in
the field.
S o m e
things you cant
change, such
as race, gen-
der or age, but
you can change
g e o g r a p h y ,
education and
level of attrac-
tiveness, said
Karen Multon, department chair
of psychology and research in
education and co-collaborator on
the study.
Multon pointed to findings
suggesting that overcoming
those obstacles will actually
help increase persistence and
achievement.
Ally Parfet, a sophomore from
Olathe majoring in chemical
engineering, feels like she has to
work harder as a woman in her
field.
You feel like you have to earn
peoples respect more than if you
were a male, Parfet said. The
difference is
if you want to
have a position,
then you need
to have a desire
to go get it.
Parfet has
held leadership
positions in
student organi-
zations such as
the Biomedical
Engineering Society, Theta Tau
and the Engineering Student
Council.
While Parfet comes from a fam-
ily interested in science, she was
inspired to go into engineering

After nearly a two-hour wait

been waiting for finally arrived.
At 12:45 a.m., the mens basketball
team arrived and took its place on
James Naismith Court in front of
more than 8,000 screaming fans.
Senior guard Tyshawn Taylor
took the microphone first and
thanked the loyal fans. Taylors

Santorum upset over
press changing speech
FRANKSVILLE, Wis. An agitated
Rick Santorum on Sunday called Mitt
Romney the worst Republican in
the country to put up against Barack
Obama even as it appears the
former Massachusetts governor is on
pace to clinch the partys nomination
in June.
Santorum later lashed out at
reporters, using a profane word as
he accused them of distorting his
speech.
Santorum told voters that Romney
is uniquely disqualifed to be the
GOPs presidential pick and urged his
supporters to stand with him even as
he faces an increasingly improbable
pathway to the nomination. Pick any
other Republican in the country. He is
the worst Republican in the country
to put up against Barack Obama,
Santorum said at an evening rally
near Racine.
Santorum later tried to clarify that
he was talking only about Romneys
ability to campaign against the
national health care law championed
by Obama and the Democrats. But
the candidates temper fared when
he was pushed by reporters.

SANtIAGo, chile A magni-
tude-7.1 earthquake struck central
Chile Sunday night, the strongest
and longest that many people said
they had felt since a huge quake
devastated the area two years ago.
Some people were injured by falling
ceiling material, but there were no
reports of major damage or deaths
due to quake-related accidents.
The quake struck at 7:30 p.m.
about 16 miles north-northwest of
Talca, a city of more than 200,000
people where residents said the
shaking lasted about a minute.
Buildings swayed in Chiles capi-
tal 136 miles to the north, and peo-
ple living along a 480-mile stretch
of Chiles central coast were briefy
warned to head for higher ground.
Panic also struck in Santiago and
other cities, with people running out
of skyscrapers, and many neighbor-
hoods were left partly or totally with-
out electrical power. Phone service
collapsed due to heavy traffc.
The Chilean navys hydrographic
and oceanographic service and the
national emergency offce called
off a tsunami warning for most of
the central coast after an analysis
showed the quake wasnt the type to
provoke killer waves.
Many coastal residents were stay-
ing away from the shore in any case,
remembering how the government
said there would be no tsunami just
before huge waves struck after the
2010 quake, killing 156 of the 524
victims of that disaster.
With aftershocks rattling the
region, many people living inland
didnt want to go back inside their
homes, either.
No deaths after damaging earthquake

ASIA
SEoUL, South Korea The
security summit that began here
Monday was supposed to be an
opportunity for President Barack
Obama and other leaders to fnd
ways to keep nuclear material away
from terrorists. So far, North Korea
has upstaged that agenda.
And that may be just what Pyong-
yang intended.
Several of the heads of state
meeting in Seoul have criticized the
Norths surprise announcement 10
days ago that it plans to blast a sat-
ellite into space next month aboard a
long-range rocket a launch that
Obamas government views as cover
for nuclear missile development.
Obama urged North Korean lead-
ers to abandon their rocket plan
or risk jeopardizing their countrys
future and thwarting a recent U.S.
pledge of food aid in return for nu-
clear and missile test moratoriums
considered a breakthrough af-
ter years of deadlock. South Korean
President Lee Myung-baks govern-
ment warned it might shoot down
parts of the rocket if it violates South
Korean air space.
Meanwhile, a Chinese govern-
ment-backed disarmament expert
said allowing the launch to dominate
discussions at the summit may be
exactly what North Korea wants.
I think North Korea did this to
overshadow our talks about nuclear
security, said China Arms Control
and Disarmament Association head
Li Hong. We shouldnt fall for their
trick.

ASIA
toKYo Another Japanese
nuclear reactor was taken off line
for maintenance on Monday, leaving
the country with only one of its 54
reactors operational following last
years devastating earthquake and
tsunami.
The last reactor is expected to be
shut down by early May, raising the
possibility of power shortages across
the nation as demand increases in
the hot summer months.
The No. 6 reactor at the Kashiwa-
zaki-Kariwa complex was taken off
line early Monday by the Tokyo Elec-
tric Power Co. The utility also runs
the plant in Fukushima, northeast
of Tokyo, that suffered meltdowns,
explosions and radiation leaks after
the March 11 quake and tsunami.
Japanese reactors are taken off
line every 13 months for regular
checks. With concerns over nuclear
safety high following the Fukushima
crisis, none of the reactors that have
been shut down for checks, and none
that were already off line at the time
of the disaster, have been allowed to
restart.
The timing for when any reactors
will be restarted remains unclear.
Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda
has promised to reduce Japans reli-
ance on nuclear power over time and
plans to lay out a new energy policy
by the summer.
In the meantime, Japan has tem-
porarily turned to oil and coal gen-
eration plants to make up for the
shortfall, and businesses have been
required to reduce electricity use to
help with conservation efforts.

JohANNESBURG A team
of rugby players with championship
hopes relished practicing on the
beach, away from their impoverished
township in southeastern South Af-
rica.
But after going for a post-practice
swim on Sunday, team members
were swept away by rough seas and
a strong current. One player drowned
and fve others remained missing
on Monday. John Fletcher, coordina-
tor for the Coastal Water Rescue
Squad, said his volunteers rescued
15 of the players, but were unable to
resuscitate one of the men, and fve
remained missing. He said strong
winds created the rough conditions
on the water.
Capt. Andre Beegte, a police
spokesman, said helicopters were
being used as the search continued
Monday. Searchers patrolled the
coastline on horses and all-terrain
vehicles, and police divers also were
called in, Beegte said.
Mncedisi Mazomba, a player-
manager for the Motherwell Rugby
Football Club, said city offcials have
arranged for counseling for relatives
of the dead man and for those miss-
ing and presumed dead.
He said the team was formed in
1992 as an outlet for boys and young
men from Port Elizabeths Mother-
well Township. It kept them away
from crime and other dangers, he
said. The club had three teams that
played other minor league teams
along South Africas eastern coast,
and even traveled as far as Cape
Town, on the western coast.

CRIME
man appears in court on
suspicion of rape
A 49-year-old rural Lawrence man,
who was arrested Sunday morning on
suspicion of rape, had his frst appear-
ance yesterday afternoon before Douglas
County Pro Tem Judge James George.
The defendant appeared from the
Douglas County Jail by video before
Judge George.
The man is suspected of raping his
20-year-old daughter by use of either
force or fear.
Sgt. Steve Lewis, a spokesperson
for the Douglas County Sherriffs De-
partment, said the victim reported she
was raped in the mans home South of
Lawrence Saturday about 8 p.m. He was
questioned at the sheriffs offce and
placed under arrest at about 1:00 a.m.
on Sunday morning.
Judge George set the mans bond at
$100,000 and issued a court-appointed
attorney for him. A no-contact order was
also issued between the man and the
victim.
Gentry Jackson, a legal intern, rep-
resented the Douglas County District
Attorneys offce and told Judge George
more charges are anticipated in the
case because there appears to be more
than one incident in which the victim
was assaulted.
Judge George set a preliminary hear-
ing in the case on Wednesday at 2:00
p.m.

presentation in junior high.
Since there werent a lot of
women in engineering, it made me
want to do it more, Parfet said.
After graduating, Parfet hopes
to go into management , where she
sees a lack of women as well.
Megan Ketchum, a senior from
Ottawa, is also majoring in chemi-
cal engineering but sees being a
woman as an advantage.
The women that are in the field
are your smart ones and confident
ones, Ketchum said. They are the
ones willing to work to achieve their
goals.
She estimates that 20 percent of
engineering students are women
more than in the past but she still
hopes more will go into the field.
More women in the field will bring
greater diversity in skills and talents,
she said.
For women hoping to succeed in
the field, Kerr recommends seeking
mentors, which is more difficult for
women to do than men, she said.
Kerr also recommended focusing
on more academics than on rela-
tionships during their undergradu-
ate years.
Place your career goal on an
equal footing with your relationship
goals, Kerr said. Make sure they
equal out eventually.

Self followed with remarks

port.
They play for each other, they
play for their families, but they
also play for you, Self said.
Self also issued a challenge to
both students and faculty to con-
tinue their support by traveling to
New Orleans this weekend.
Despite the nights excitement
about the Jayhawks advancing to
the Final Four, Self made refer-
ence to the hard work that lies
ahead of the team.

ISLAMABAD Te Indian
James Bond can disarm a bomb
while fying a helicopter, dodge
bullets from deadly assassins
and save his country from nu-
clear disaster. But getting into
cinemas in neighboring Paki-
stan has proved to be an impos-
sible feat.
Pakistan banned the Indian
flm Agent Vinod a few days
before its scheduled release,
likely because of its critical por-
trayal of the countrys generals
and spies. Tey are shown pro-
viding support for the Taliban
in Afghanistan and scheming to
set of a nuclear suitcase bomb
in archenemy Indias capital.
It was our judgment that
it should not be allowed to be
screened, the vice chairman of
Pakistans Film Censor Board,
Muhammad Ashraf Gondal,
told Te Associated Press on
Monday. It falls under the neg-
ative codes of our censor.
Te flm, which was sched-
uled to open last week in Lahore
and Karachi, likely hit too close
to home because it echoes real
criticism of Pakistan admit-
tedly, in the exaggerated style of
Indias popular Bollywood flm
industry.
Although Pakistan has never
been accused of trying to deto-
nate a nuclear weapon in India,
it has sponsored Islamist mili-
tant groups who have carried
out attacks in the country. It
helped the Taliban seize power
in Afghanistan in the 1990s to
counter Indian infuence, and
many believe support for the
group has continued despite
Pakistans denials.
Agent Vinod is for Indians,
but it is not against Pakistanis,
said the movies lead actor and
co-producer, Saif Ali Khan, in
an interview with the Indo-
Asian News Service. But I
understand if they get upset
because we are beating them up
quite ofen in the flm.
Te Indian flm shows Paki-
stani ofcials encouraging
terrorist attacks in India and
fnancing Lashkar-e-Taiba, a
militant group founded with
the ISIs support in the 1990s
focused on pressuring India to
give up Kashmir.
If you feel this is unreason-
able or not true, then it is fair
enough, said Khan, the actor-
producer. I think it is all quite
true.
Agent Vinod is certainly
not the frst Bollywood flm to
be prohibited in Pakistan. Te
government imposed a blan-
ket ban on all Indian movies in
1965, following a bloody war
between the two countries.

HONOLULU Director
James Cameron has begun his
solo journey to explore a place
only two men have gone before
to the Earths deepest point.
Te director of Titanic, Ava-
tar and other flms is using a
specially designed submarine to
descend nearly seven miles to the
bottom of the Mariana Trench, an
area 200 miles southwest of the
Pacifc island of Guam.
He began the dive Monday at
approximately 5:15 a.m. local time,
according Stephanie Montgomery
of the National Geographic
Society, where Cameron is an
explorer-in-residence.
Te scale of the trench is hard to
grasp its 120 times larger than
the Grand Canyon and more than
a mile deeper than Mount Ever-
est is tall. It was expected to take
Cameron 90 minutes to reach the
bottom aboard his 12-ton, lime-
green sub called Deepsea Chal-
lenger. Once there, Cameron
planned to spend six hours col-
lecting samples for biologists and
geologists to study. Te return
trip to the surface was forecast to
take 70 minutes.

M
any of us have heard
that when starting a
new exercise routine
you need it to take it slow. But
when we dont find out exactly
why we tend to fall into the
same patterns that keep us from
our exercise goals.
One of the most effective
ways to understand what moti-
vates our exercise behavior is
through the field of Applied
Behavior Analysis (Applied
Behavioral Science at KU).
The simple principles of rein-
forcement and punishment
can explain and even predict
when we engage in a particular
behavior more (reinforcement)
or less (punishment). There are
varieties of reinforcement and
punishment but in the context
of exercise we often punish
ourselves unknowingly.
When starting a new routine
for instance, we often apply a
lot of pressure and set too many
goals too quickly. If we fail to
meet these goals its likely we
feel disappointed and a high
pressure experience at the gym
is in it of itself unpleasant.
Both instances are indicative of
punishing our own behavior of
attending the gym.
Therefore, give yourself
small and achievable goals so
that when you meet them you
feel satisfied and likely to con-
tinue. Also make your work-
outs as enjoyable as possible
while still getting a workout.
Bringing a friend is a great way
to take your attention off of
the unpleasant aspects of the
workout.
Second, give yourself a
nudge, literally. The authors
of a bestselling behavioral eco-
nomics book Nudge reference
various gym strategies to moti-
vate their clients on their blog
(www.nudges.org). One gym
gives $50 of credit for every
10 visits per member that can
be applied to future gym dues.
Another gym in Boston worked
with Behavioral Economics
students at Harvard to give
members free memberships for
a month contingent on them
working out at least four times
a week. If they failed to do this
for a week, they paid $25, and if
they quit altogether, they paid
$75. Almost everyone stayed in
their routine and became con-
sistent gym-goers.
These simple principles from
Behavior Analysis give you a
framework to achieve workout
goals in conjunction with other
specialized info. In this case for
instance, reading information
about exercise and nutrition is
equally important to making
sure youre working effectively
towards your goals. Drinking
heavily and eating poorly for
example reduces the effective-
ness of your exercise routine
and weight loss program. This
makes your gym efforts less
reinforcing for future behavior
and from a nutritional perspec-
tive reduces performance and
long term health.
So start small and go with
a friend, find nudges to give
yourself, and supplement your
program with good-quality
information.

S
tudents should not be
allowed to carry guns on
campus, conceal-carry
license or not. However, stu-
dents may soon be allowed to
bring guns on campus if pend-
ing legislation in the Kansas
legislature is passed.
On March 12, the Kansas
House of Representatives
passed House Bill 2353 by a
vote of 70-54, which would
allow people with conceal-carry
permits to take guns into gov-
ernment buildings, including
buildings on the campuses of
state universities, such as the
University of Kansas. While
the bill was well received in the
House, there is not such a favor-
able outlook in the Senate. The
State Senate leader Steve Morris
(R-Hugoton) said I think its a
bad idea.
The House
bill allows
weapons to
be brought
into govern-
ment facilities
unless the buildings have ade-
quate security measures, which
are defined as electronic equip-
ment and personnel at public
entrances to detect and prevent
people from carrying weapons
into the facility. Therefore,
a security checkpoint similar
to those used in courthouses
would be necessary to prevent
carrying guns into campus
buildings.
Supporters of the legislation
have said allowing students to
carry guns on campus could
make campuses safer. The
Bills sponsor Rep. Forrest
Know (R-Altoona) said the bill
is about safety. Rep. Owen
Donahoe (R-Shawnee), a sup-
porter of the bill, said people
feel they have to take means to
protect them-
selves. Thats
what the
constitution
supports, and
thats why I
supported it.
Detractors
believe col-
lege cam-
puses do not
need weap-
ons on them,
arguing campus police can pro-
vide sufficient safety on campus.
Dr. Jerry Wolfskill, the Associate
Vice President of Public Safety
at Johnson County Community
College, said it would be pretty
tough on students because
theyd be forced to go through
metal detectors to go to class.
Rep. Valdenia Winn (D-Kansas
City) said I dont think it cre-
ates the environment you want
to promote and Rep. Barbara
Ballard (D-Lawrence) has said
that college campuses do not
need weapons.
The debate about whether
weapons should be allowed on
campus has been highly con-
tested. Ill admit that both sides
have worthy points and deter-
mining what side of this issue
I came down on was difficult.
On one hand, guns on campus
could help promote safety in
some cases. Generally, shoot-
ings on college campuses are
not stopped by the University
police and because they happen
so quickly, there is limited time
to respond. Shootings continue
until they are stopped by pro-
fessors or students, or by the
person with the gun. Guns on
campus could potentially stop
a shooting from going as far as
they have in the past. In some
cases, it may be better to have a
shootout than a massacre.
However,
there is also
risk associated
with guns on
campus. The
more guns, the
more likely
someone will
use a gun. College students
actions are especially unpredict-
able based on emotions, stress,
relationships, and life changes
they experience. Most students
will not use guns violently but
allowing them to carry them
on campus increases the prob-
ability some may. The State has
a duty to try to protect students
on campus from any increased
threats of violence.
The difficulty is that students
who want to bring guns on
campus still could. Rep. Forrest
Knox (R-Altoona) asks a valid
question: Youre not afraid of
illegal guns that are already
there, but youre afraid of law-
abiding citizens who are carry-
ing guns? Knoxs point shows
further measures are necessary
to ensure
students are
unable to
carry guns
on campus,
legal or not.
It either
needs to be
all or noth-
ing. Either
all people
should be
allowed to
carry guns on campus, both
those who carry them ille-
gally or with a concealed carry
license, or no one should be
allowed to carry guns on cam-
pus. For the sake of the safety
of students and the cautions that
should be taken after shootings
have devastated the nation the
wiser choice would be the latter.

E
ver since I discovered
George A. Romeros 1968
film Night of the Living
Dead, I was intrigued by the
idea of a zombie infested apoca-
lyptic world. Naturally when I
heard that AMC was making
the series The Walking Dead
(TWD), based on the graphic
novel by Robert Kirkman and
Tony Moore, I had to see it.
What interests me about
zombie stories is seeing how
the characters strive to survive
and what they will do in order
to live and see another day.
The difference with TWD is
that they have longer than an
hour and a half to tell the story;
therefore, it gives the writers
a lot more time to develop the
characters.
My zom-
bie enter-
tainment
has all come
from movies,
so far, and
while watch-
ing TWD, I
realized that
with a series,
the writers
have a lot
more issues
that the
characters can
deal with, rather than just striv-
ing to survive the apocalypse.
The movies seem to never cover
the idea of the characters cre-
ating a new society. The only
concern they have in the movies
is to survive.
For the second season of
TWD, they begin to broaden
the dialogue into more relat-
able topics, such as choosing a
leader of the group and how to
act as a civilized society. There
are still a lot of cheesy and slow
dramatic scenarios that occur
in the series, but I try to ignore
that part of the show.
The difference is it doesnt
only depict the characters as
only trying to survive. Since
the series is set over a span
of months, the show is able
to show the development of a
society and the formation of a
government
in which
they try to
create a civi-
lized society
despite the
flesh-eating
walkers
that are
hunting
them down.
As time
continues,
the show
begins to
depict how their democratic
society tends to unravel under
the circumstances. What is
intriguing is when they begin
to discuss the ethics of murder-
ing a human, someone who is
not a walker. The group holds
hostage a young man named
Randall and Rick, the groups
leader, comes to the conclusion
that for the safety of the group,
they have to kill him.
Another member of the
group, Dale, cannot believe that
this is a viable option that they
are considering to take. Dale
comes to the conclusion that
if they kill this man, the world
that they once lived in and
knew would be dead.
With all this said, it brings up
the idea of how in nature there
is no moral construct to live
by. For example, Jean-Jacques
Rousseau in his Discourse on
the Origin of Inequality states
that in a state of nature, there
is no need for moral virtues,
because there is no set form of
society or community.
The cast of characters in
The Walking Dead seem to
be heading back to this idea of
nature. The only major differ-
ence is that somewhere in their
world, they are being hunted
by the flesh-eating walking
dead. When Dale is killed off
by a walker, it proves to show
that their moral center and the
world that they knew is also
dead. Rousseau claims that,
in a state of nature, there is
no morality because there is
no civilized society revolving
around it in order to create
moral codes for what is good
and bad.
It seems that the cast of
TWD is beginning to distance
themselves from a civilized
democracy. They are return-
ing to a world of nature with
instincts that revolve only
around surviving; they are one
step closer to completely lack-
ing a moral civilized society.

creased on Monday.
David Cloninger posted on his

approximately 10:30 a.m. [EDT] on
Tuesday ... to discuss the mens bas-

streamed live on gamecocksonline.

According to the website for the
University of South Carolina Board
of Trustees a meeting will take place
today at 10 a.m. EDT.
Andy Shain, a reporter and editor
for Te State, a South Carolina news-
paper, posted on his Twitter Monday
that the USC Board of Trustees meet-
ing for tomorrow has been moved to a
suite at Colonial Life Arena.
Cloninger wrote the ofcial press-
er will begin afer the BOT meeting,
which is set for 10 a.m., on his Twit-
ter afer the press conference was an-
nounced.
Te University of South Carolina is
looking to replace Darrin Horn, who
fnished his last season as head coach
of the Gamecocks with only 10 wins
and in last place in the Southeastern
Conference standings.
Cloningers Twitter also said a
source with insight to the negotiations
told him that Martins contract is
supposed to be worth between $1.75
and $2 million in his frst year, with
increments throughout the deal.
Te source told Cloninger that the
contract is either fve or six years.
Robert Cassidy, however, wrote in
an article Monday on GoPowercat.
com Kansas State basketball coach
Frank Martin will become the bas-
ketball coach at South Carolina, ac-
cording to media reports, but a source
close to the negotiations denies that
the deal is done. Cassidy continued
by quoting sources close to Martin
that said an agreement between USC
and Martin were close to complete.
Shakey Rodriguez, Martins mentor
and former high school coach, con-
frmed to Cassidy the inklings that
the reasons behind Martins interest in
USC come from a damaged relation-
ship with K-States Athletics Director
John Currie.
Recruiting could also be afected if
Martin accepts the job.
Tere is speculation among the me-
dia that Robert Upshaw, the Wildcats
top recruit, may decide to re-open his
recruitment. Cassidy said in his ar-
ticle that the family of Upshaw had no
knowledge of Martin leaving when he
contacted them by phone.
If Martin does leave K-State, he will
have led the Wildcats to three con-
secutive NCAA tournament bids and
recording at least 20 wins in each of
his fve seasons as head coach.

foul TRouble
could be Key
Both Ohio and
Kansas have relatively small rota-
tions and neither team has had
much room for error when it
comes to foul trouble. Te Jay-
hawks have only two legitimate
big men and the Buckeyes have
three. Afer that, things get tricky
for both squads. Ohio State didnt
have a single of the bench play
more than nine minutes in their
Elite 8 victory over Syracuse while
Kansas best forward of the bench
is Kevin Young, whos known more
for his hustle than post defense. If
either team gets in early foul trou-
ble, it could become disastrous.

W
hen I arrived on campus four
years ago, it was on the tails
of the 2008 National Cham-
pionship. Te basketball team was opti-
mistic even though it was about to lose
all fve starters from the team that won
the championship. I didnt know when,
but I was sure that sometime during my
four years of college, Kansas would make
it to the Final Four.
Tat frst year, they had an unfortu-
nate matchup in the Sweet 16 with even-
tual National Championship runner-up
Michigan State. Not even a 20-point ef-
fort from Sherron Collins could lif the
team to victory.
Tis was followed by the back-to-back
disappointing losses that linger in the
minds of all Jayhawk fans. Last years loss
to VCU in the Elite Eight was especially
hard, because I thought the Jayhawks
were the most talented team lef in the
tournament.
It was also hard, because with the
departure of four starters, the Jayhawk
line-up did not look on paper like a team
that would be able make a deep tourna-
ment run.
As the season went on, although I was
always on alert for a stomach-punch
game, the way the team was playing
made the hope I thought had died begin
to return. Te key was not getting my
hopes too high, but the thought still lin-
gered in the back of my mind.
When the game began yesterday, but-
terfies bounced around in my stomach.
But when the Jayhawks played well early
on, the nerves disappeared. For the frst
time all tournament, the Jayhawks
didnt start sloppy. Actually, the quick
pace was exciting. It was fun watching
the Jayhawks and Tar Heels go back
and forth.
But as the clock started to wind down,
foul trouble piled up, and I wondered
to myself, Could the Jayhawks snatch
defeat from the jaws of victory? Would
foul trouble derail the Jayhawks and end
my time as a student fan in disappoint-
ment?
Te heartbreak of the past two seasons
entered my mind. Te Jayhawks went on
a run and my fears were squashed.
As Jayhawk fans, we are spoiled. We
expect our team to win it all every year,
and everything less is viewed as a disap-
pointment. Eight straight conference ti-
tles is an amazing achievement, yet every
year weve come to expect the Jayhawks
to come out on top.
Most schools rarely make it to the Fi-
nal Four, but this is Kansas second ap-
pearance in fve years. But the sustained
success is why the expectations are so
high. Most students would be thrilled
to make multiple trips to the Sweet Six-
teen during their time in school, or even
making the tournament every year.
At smaller schools, a birth simply
making the tournament is an achieve-
ment in itself.
But then again, Kansas isnt most
places, and when a school is competing
for the title of the most storied program,
sustained success isnt good enough; its
greatness that counts. And greatness is
measured by making it to, and winning,
in the fnal weekend.

COMMENTARY
K
ansas prides itself on hav-
ing one of the best if not
the best fans in the na-
tion, and the student body will get
its chance to prove it this weekend in
New Orleans.
Te Kansas Athletics ofce sent
an email to the All-Sports Combo
holders about the opportunity to see
the Final Four for just $25. Tis ofer
includes both semifnals and the title
game, and the seats are on the foor.
Although it may sound too good to
be true, this is a legitimate deal that
students should take advantage of.
Te 2009 Final Four in Detroit
was the frst time this student-seat-
ing model was used, and while North
Carolina cruised to an 89-72 victory
over Michigan State, the packed stu-
dent sections were rocking the entire
game.
When Mario Chalmers hit his mi-
raculous game tying three-pointer
in 2008, Lawrence was the center
of the Kansas championship festivi-
ties as thousands of people fooded
Massachusetts Street in celebration.
As students, we see the images of
the raucous celebration during the
basketball introduction video, with
dreams of recreating the scene in the
streets.
Just four years removed from the
2008 title, downtown Lawrence may
very well relive that monumental
night, but I sincerely hope that Kan-
sas fans purchase and fll those 700
student section seats.
Last years Final Four is the per-
fect example of whats at stake for the
Kansas students. Te Connecticut
Huskies, winners of three national
championships, are one of the na-
tions elite basketball programs. Te
school has a proud history of success
in both the mens and womens game,
but their students absence in Hous-
ton was embarrassing.
Te students from Kentucky, But-
ler and Virginia Commonwealth
were are well-represented in Hous-
ton, but Connecticut was so bad
that the NCAA gave away tickets to
students at local Rice University and
University of Houston, so basketball
fans across the world didnt have to
see an empty student section for the
national championship.
Te Kansas student section was
named as the Naismith Student Sec-
tion of the Year, but a poor showing
in New Orleans would make it ap-
pear undeserving of the award.
Playing with fellow basketball
powers Kentucky, Louisville and
Ohio State joining the Jayhawks in
New Orleans, this weekend will be
the ultimate measuring stick of stu-
dent passion.
I know that Kansas students take
basketball passion to a new level, but
a strong majority of the country does
not get to watch the Jayhawks on a
consistent basis. Tis is the time to
prove it. Allen Fieldhouse gives the
basketball team a tremendous home-
court advantage, but the Jayhawks
will need a Phog atmosphere
brought to the Mercedes-Benz Su-
perdome to help them succeed.
I hope that fans can resist the
temptation to stay in Lawrence solely
to celebrate on Massachusetts Street.
And besides, Bourbon Street is not a
bad alternative.

The Baylor Bears swept the
Kansas Jayhawks baseball team
this weekend, winning all three
games of the weekend while
outscoring Kansas 27-8.
Tonight, the Jayhawks will
travel to Springfield, Mo., to take
on more Bears the Missouri
State Bears. Things wont get any
easier for Kansas: Missouri State
enters the game ranked No. 29
in the country by the Collegiate
Baseball Newspaper Baseball
Poll. Its the first time Missouri
State has been ranked in the top
30 since 2009.
Team captain and red-shirt
junior first baseman Jake
Marasco said Kansas travels to
Missouri State looking to make
a statement.
We have to make sure we
bounce back tomorrow after
this disappointing weekend,
Marasco said. You never want
to start off your conference sea-
son 0-3, but its a long season
and we just have
to stay positive.
The Jayhawks
have put a lot of
runners on base
all season, but
struggle to find
the clutch hit. In
the three games
against Baylor,
Kansas left 30
runners on base.
We just need to have a good
approach, Marasco said. Dont
try and do too much and hit the
ball hard somewhere.
The Bears come into Tuesdays
game on a seven-game winning
streak and a 19-6 record on the
season. Theyve beaten Big 12
schools Oklahoma State twice
and Texas
Tech once.
The Jay-
hawks enter
the game
sput t er i ng.
The team
sits at 10-13
on the sea-
son and have
lost six of its last eight games.
Playing at Missouri State
gives Kansas another away
game to learn from. In 10 home
games, the Bears have lost only
twice this season. The Jayhawks
are 8-12 in 20 games away from
Lawrence this season.
Weve played a lot of games
on the road to prepare us for
our conference schedule, said
coach Ritch Price after Sundays
loss. We need to get comfort-
able playing in a hostile envi-
ronment.
The two teams match up well
offensively. Kansas has scored
103 runs to Missouri States 128.
Kansas is hitting .262 this sea-
son while Missouri State is hit-
ting .264. Both teams are also
pretty even in the homerun de-
partment; Kansas has hit 12 to
Missouri States 11.
Pitching is the area Missouri
State has found its success this
season. The Bears pitching staff
has posted a 2.35 ERA this sea-
son. The Jayhawks pitching staff
is far from dominant, posting a
4.26 ERA on the season.
Kansas will send freshman
starter Drew Morovick,(2-1,
5.09 ERA), to the mound to try
and stop the losing streak. He
will face Missouri State junior
starter Cody Schumacher, (2-0,
5.46), at 6:30 p.m.

Kansas signs former
nebraska lineman
Just as Kansas gave Charlie Weis a
second chance, the Jayhawks are giving
former Nebraska defensive end Josh Wil-
liams one, too.
On Monday, Kansas Athletics con-
frmed the signing of Williams, who
played in a total of 29 games on the
Cornhuskers defensive line. Williams
completed his degree at Nebraska and
will transfer to Kansas in June to be eli-
gible for the 2012 season.
Williams, a 6-foot-4, 260-pound line-
man from Denton, Texas, was dismissed
from Nebraska in February due to a viola-
tion of team rules. Weis has given Wil-
liams another chance though, and the
timing is crucial because Kansas defen-
sive line needs reinforcements.
Assuming Williams is able to take
care of business off the feld, it wouldnt
be surprising to see him make an imme-
diate impact on Dave Campos defense,
an article on turfburner.com said. At the
very least, he should help provide depth
for a unit that was severely lacking in it
last year.
The trouble that Williams got in at
Nebraska wasnt his frst time, either. He
was accused of robbing a man in 2008,
according to journalstar.com. The charg-
es were later dropped and Williams pled
to lesser charges, including assault.
Regardless of his past, Williams is
now with Kansas and could play a big
role for the Jayhawks defense in the
2012-2013 season. He had 27 tackles in
his three seasons with Nebraska, three
quarterback hurries, one tackle for a loss,
one forced fumble and one blocked kick.
Williams had scholarship offers from
Kansas, Arkansas, Missouri, Texas, and
Texas A&M, among others, out of high
school.

max rothman
mrothman@kansan.com
What happens on the hard-
wood gleams, and for good rea-
son, but often doesnt say it all.
The rapid ascension of junior
forward Thomas Robinson,
the timely sea change of senior
guard Tyshawn Taylor and the
mental and physical growth of
junior center Jeff Withey have
been well documented. So have
their highlights. The players did
their part, and theyre at the
forefront of the reality that is a
ticket to the Final Four in New
Orleans. But on Sunday in St.
Louis, where Kansas turned a
dream into an actuality, there
was something else in play, and
it steamed from the sidelines.
There was coach Bill Self vs.
coach Roy Williams.
When theres enough big-
engine columnists tooting as
they do, youve got predeter-
mined sentiments. Self, some
say, is a young but accomplished
winner who may or may not
have a questionable track record
in March. Williams, some say, is
a living legend who may or may
not have lost a step.
Lets allow Sundays game to
decide how much these senti-
ments reallymatter.
Self ran a zone defensive
scheme called the triangle-and-
two to disrupt North Carolinas
interior scoring and force deep
shots. He had seen enough scor-
ing from forwards John Henson,
Tyler Zeller and James Michael
McAdoo, who tallied a collec-
tive 24 points in the first half.
Self said after the game that
he consistently operated this
scheme in the final eight or nine
minutes of the game.
Williams had his own take on
the scheme.
I know they did for one pos-
session, and they may have for a
second possession. Im not sure
about that, he said. We got a
very good shot. It just didnt go
in the first time, and then again,
Im not sure if they were actually
in it the second time. But we had
J. Watts on the left wing, we had
Reggie in the corner and we had
John eight feet away. And we
had some good shots. They just
didnt go in.
Perhaps Williams saw these
looks by guards Justin Watts and
Reggie Bullock as his best bet.
However the Tar Heels scored
47 points in the first half, the
most points Kansas allowed in a
first half all season.
They did so by finding
Henson, Zeller and Michael
McAdoo. They either aban-
doned this plan in the second
half, which may seem odd
because were told not to mess
with success, or quite possibly,
Self s scheme worked exactly
how he planned it.
Sometimes, Self said, when
you get an open look, you dont
knock it down, you think a little
bit.
In the final 8:34 of the game,
the Tar Heels missed 12 of 13
shots. In the final four minutes,
when the Jayhawks snatched the
game with a 12-0 run, the Tar
Heels missed all seven of their
shots. Freshman guard Stilman
White, Williams replacement
for the injured Kendall Marshall,
took two of those seven shots.
We were able to keep the
ball out of their bigs hands and
take away their two shooters,
Self said. And the thing about
it is, you got to rebound out of
it. And you know, theyre a great
rebounding team, but I thought
we rebounded the ball as well as
we have in a long time.
Rebounding had been Self s
gripe for much of the season,
but Kansas outrebounded North
Carolina 41-35.
The big-engine columnists
may give Williams a pass. One
game will probably never rav-
age a legacy. However, Williams
own words about this one par-
ticular game say enough.
He thought the triangle-and-
two lasted one, maybe two pos-
sessions. He also had another
thought.
I think, Williams said, that
the emotions the last four min-
utes, or something like that, I
think that took over a little bit,
too.
Or something like that.
