LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -Kansas officials are still trying to determine what happened to spark fights between members of the football and basketball teams this week.
The teams fought at least twice midweek, with a football player apparently getting shoved down a few stairs and basketball player Tyshawn Taylor injuring his thumb.
Kansas athletic director Lew Perkins spoke before Saturday’s football game against Southern Miss, saying he is embarrassed and hurt by the altercations. He called the issue the most complicated he’s dealt with in more than 40 years as a college administrator.
Perkins said he will let the coaches discipline the players, but will step in if the situation escalates.
