A Kansas ticket scandal?

As if Kansas didn't have a bad enough weekend:

Federal authorities are investigating possibly illegal sales of University of Kansas men’s basketball tickets, The Kansas City Star has learned. The probe appears to be focused on whether NCAA Tournament tickets, and perhaps season ticket packages, have been taken illegally from the university, possibly for years, and sold through outside channels. Proceeds could be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

So there's that.

Kansas has also suspended an assistant athletic director, Rodney Jones, who was in charge of the Williams Educational Fund from 2004 up until his suspension this month. It is the primary way Kansas boosters acquire game tickets.

Right now, not much information has come to light publicly, and I doubt it has much relevance to the Jayhawk's basketball program.

But its probably not what Jayhawk fans wanted to hear less than a week after being knocked out of the NCAA Tournament.
