This is great news and a win-win for both parties.

Jesse gets a much bigger stage to pursue his craft, while the KC Star gets one of the best up-and-coming sports writers out there. And a guy who isn't afraid to work hard, probe deeper, ask tough questions, and go way beyond the box score.

Really happy to see this.

“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”

Finally a KCStar KU beat writer with a real eye and mind for sports whose motives we won't have to question!

Thanks for the news!
