Kansas University football recruiting

Jarred Sample, a wide receiver from Cypress, Texas, committed to play football at Kansas on Sunday evening following an official visit.

Sample is the second player at the position who has shared his decision to play for the Jayhawks in the last two days. Surahz Buncom, a wide receiver from Chula Vista, California, who also visited the university over the weekend, did so on Saturday morning.

He's also the fourth player who has decided to suit up for the Jayhawks in the past seven days and the third in the Class of 2023. Taylor Davis, a safety from Missouri City, Texas, pledged to join the team early last week, and junior college linebacker Tristian Fletcher, who is also from Cypress, Texas, did so as well late Saturday.

A three-star wide receiver according to 247Sports, Sample received a scholarship offer on Nov. 3 and made an unofficial visit to Kansas in late March. He had also received offers from Memphis, Tulsa, Tulane, Army and Navy, among others.

Sample, who is 5-foot-10 and 165 pounds, attends Cypress Ranch High School, just northwest of Houston. He was recruited to Kansas by wide receivers coach Terrance Samuel and defensive backs coach Jordan Peterson.

A unanimous 16-6A all-district wide receiver, Sample has been timed at 4.43 seconds in the 40-yard dash and 10.67 seconds in the 100 meters.

JBP is the greatest gift to humanity Fairview, Alberta could have ever given us. Courage and wisdom are two of the most important human characteristics, both vanishing rapidly. Dr. Peterson is off-the-charts on both. Highly recommend 12 Rules for Life for all late teens and early 20s. Its antidote to what ails their happy, successful, resilient, grateful emergence into adulthood. If you have a 16-18 yr old who is wobbling and youre concerned, please get him or her that book.

I recently missed out on the chance to see him in person in my city. Im still kicking myself.

Thank you, Doc. (Ive been to Fairview three times, hunting waterfowl in the upper Peace River country. No one would believe you came from there if they saw it for themselves. All the more reason your story is so amazing. But having gotten to know rural people in AB, SK, and MB, it does not surprise me in the least those are your roots).

We deserve some respect. You deserve some respect. You are important to other people, as much as to yourself. You have some vital role to play in the unfolding destiny of the world. You are, therefore, morally obliged to take care of yourself. You should take care of, help and be good to yourself the same way you would take care of, help and be good to someone you loved and valued. You may therefore have to conduct yourself habitually in a manner that allows you some respect for your own Beingand fair enough. But every person is deeply flawed. Everyone falls short of the glory of God. If that stark fact meant, however, that we had no responsibility to care, for ourselves as much as others, everyone would be brutally punished all the time. That would not be good. That would make the shortcomings of the world, which can make everyone who thinks honestly question the very propriety of the world, worse in every way. That simply cannot be the proper path forward. Jordan B. Peterson, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos

Here are The Baltimore Suns All-Metro girls lacrosse teams for the 2022 season.

Madison Beale, St. Pauls, senior, defender

The timeless adage that defense wins championships couldnt have been more true this season for St. Pauls, which allowed an average of 7.6 goals per game in its 17 wins and time and again forced opponents into long scoring droughts.

Led by their Duke-bound All-American, who usually marked the oppositions top offensive threat, the Gators won their second straight Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland A Conference title, ending the year ranked No. 1 in The Baltimore Sun Top 15 poll and the nation.

Beales play was crucial, particularly after St. Pauls (17-1) suffered a rash of late-season injuries that threatened to derail its playoff hopes.

First, the Gators lost two defensive starters Olivia Rose (torn ACL) and Kira Balis (shoulder) in their win over McDonogh. Then, junior Grace Schlossberg, who had replaced Rose, suffered an ACL tear of her own in the following game against Roland Park.

The defense was in disarray, particularly during a 20-7 loss to Glenelg Country in which Dragons star Jaclyn Marszal torched the Gators for eight goals and six assists, at times against a unit that included Beale and three freshmen.

But it didnt take long for Beale and company to regain their footing. With a few days of practice, the senior led a unit that held both Notre Dame Prep and McDonogh to single-digit goals in playoff wins. Then, in a rematch with Glenelg Country for the IAAM championship, the four-year starter who primarily patrolled the midfield for her Sky Walkers club team played perhaps her most dominant game, matching up with Marszal and holding her to a single goal in a 15-7 win.

Madison Beale, in my opinion, is one of the best athletes to ever play at [St. Pauls], coach Mary Gagnon said. All year, we needed Madison to always be at her best. Especially when Olivia went down, all the weight fell upon Madison to really play well, and she did. Without Madison out there, we dont win the IAAM championship or become the No. 1 team.

Beale, who will play in next months Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Game at Johns Hopkins, finished the season with 25 draw controls, five goals and 10 takeaways.

Becky Groves, Century

One of Carroll Countys all-time great athletes guided her team to one of the areas all-time great seasons.

Groves squad finished 19-0, beating seven teams that were ranked at the time in The Baltimore Suns Top 15 poll on its way to the Class 2A state championship.

Milton Wright, and, in the state final, Baltimore County champion Hereford. They ended the season ranked No. 12 in the nation by Inside Lacrosse and No. 15 by USA Lacrosse.

It marked the fourth state title for Groves, who has compiled a 144-32 record in her 12 seasons at the helm.

On the field, Groves then known as Becky Trumbo was a two-time Carroll County Player of the Year and first-team All-Metro midfielder at Liberty, finishing her career in 2002 as the countys all-time leading scorer with 379 points.

Read this thread from a man who had sex-change surgery in an attempt to become female, but who is now detransitioning. If you check it out on Twitter now, there are two posts missing; he says he didnt delete it, but Twitter did because so many pro-trans people complained that this is transphobic. Someone archived the whole thing before Twitters censors got to work; this link includes what was missing. Im going to post photos of the entire thread including the restored censored parts just in case someone else tries to take it down. Ive drawn from both the archived version and shots I took just now from the live thread; this accounts for the different time stamps. What you see below is the content as it first appeared on Twitter::

Here is a link to the existing Twitter thread, with a couple of posts removed.

Here is a link to one of the posts on TullipRs Substack about life as a detransitioner.Excerpts:

To catch you up, I began medical transition at age 26 and had penile inversion with a scrotal graft at 30. If youre wondering what that is and only if you have the stomach for it (You have been warned!),go here to see for yourselfwhat the procedure looks like.

If you want to see the potential outcomes, horrors, and disasters, as well as the butchers that do this,head over to this thread on kiwi farms. I cannot possibly stress enough that these links are not for the faint of heart.

I share this only because this thread has saved some of my detrans friends from doing this. Not all. Some of us have to live with this shit forever. We were too unwell and socially inept to understand what it meant when we went through it.

Detrans people who have been on HRT for only a few months may get off lucky. Some people can get rapid development in a short time frame depending on age and sensitivity to hormone treatment, but many will effectively return to normal. Then you have those who were cut; had their breasts, testicles, genitals inverted, changed, mutilated, amputated, lobotomized whatever term you feel fits but the impact is the same. Its gone forever.

For detrans women who have had mastectomies, there is a promising field of breast reconstruction thanks to the developments in care for breast cancer patients (if you can get funding, that is). Unfortunately, if theyve had a hysterectomy, like detrans men who had their testicles removed, they will be reliant on HRT for the rest of their lives.

Gonads play animportant part in our endocrine system, responsible for more than just reproduction, which is something I didnt learn until I detransitioned. In nearly a decade of medical care, not one medical professional made this clear.

He goes on:

I feel panicked at the thought of being a hairy dude with a front hole. Its a devastating thought, and no disrespect to other detrans men who have found solace in taking testosterone but its not just the physical aspects that scare me, its the psychological ones too.

Like my transition itself, my inverted penis is a caricature of a female body part that despite being dressed up to appear female, is unmistakably male. During surgery, they retain the Kepler gland, which produces seminal fluid. You can produce quite a lot, but only once you climax. Women produce fluid leading up to, during, and after and the difference is unmistakable, which is why I struggle to call it a vagina. Its not. Its a lobotomised penis.

A twitchy stump. A lobotimized penis. A hairy dude with a front hole.

This is what we are doing to people especially to our children! Permissive parents are allowing this. The medical profession celebrates this, as do the media, universities, Democratic politicians, and of course, Woke Capitalism. I used to wonder how in the world all the right-thinking educated people of the early 20th century embraced eugenics. Now I know.

Yesterday I was in Cambridge, giving a couple of talks to people at the university, and meeting others for conversation. It was an amazing day. I learned the extent to which wokeness and soft totalitarianism have captured this, one of the worlds great universities, and I also met some people who, with tremendous courage, are taking and have taken risks to resist it. These are the Live Not By Lies dissidents always few in number, always unspeakably admirable. I can do what I do to tell the truth because I am fortunate enough to write for an independent magazine, and not to have an income dependent on not angering the woke. These people some of them students, which is to say, young people at the most vulnerable time of their adult lives do not.

Im thinking this morning about a young woman Ill call Jane. She might be fine with me using her real name, but Ill exercise caution.

Jane is in her early 20s. She grew up in a working-class family. Both parents and grandparents were atheists. She came to hear me talk about Live Not By Lies, in a speech sponsored by a Christian organization at Cambridge, the Trinity Forum (which is also at Oxford and Edinburgh, as well as in the US), because she has recently converted to Christianity. She said that she used to think she was an atheist, but she came to believe that nobody is truly an atheist that everybody worships something. And what I worshiped was Science, she said.

Anyway, she told me and others in the group that as a teenager, she had fallen deeply into the woke cult, and was starting to succumb to the trans part of it at around age 17. She said she was following the script of uglifying her body, and had begun to wear a breast binder. She was suicidal and deeply depressed; all of these things she was doing to be her authentic self, as the propaganda stated, were only alienating her more profoundly from her body and her soul.

She had dreamed of being an artist from childhood, and had some early success (I looked this up online to confirm it; she was telling the truth); she must be quite talented. She said joining the artistic communities in the UK means having to embrace and affirm all things woke. The details she shared were stunning. It really is a cult.There was an older professional artist in the room listening to this, and she, though only having met Jane a few minutes earlier, confirmed everything she was saying about how utterly hostile the artistic world in the UK is to any traditional standards of beauty, or any traditions at all.

Jane said that one night, she was in her room, and somehow a Jordan Peterson lecture turned up on her social media feed. I thought, oh ho ho, lets have a look at what this Nazi has to say, she said, explaining that Peterson is a total hate figure in those left-wing circles. She really did think he was some sort of fascist, and decided to hate-watch his lecture.

By the end, she said, she was astonished to discover that she agreed with everything JBP said. That began the process of her losing her woke religion. She quit wearing the breast binder. As Jane was telling us about this yesterday, she said that its astonishing to her now to recognize how anti-feminine wokeness is. You have all these extremely woke women who have convinced themselves that men are evil, and that the only way to know freedom and authenticity is to refuse to partner with them or to make yourself attractive in any way to them, and of course to refuse to have children. And yet, to take hormones and have surgeries in an effort to become a man (as if that were possible) is the height of progressive achievement! Its so bizarre.

Jane, who, again, is only in her early twenties, said what a revelation it was to her to discover that she actually likes being a woman, actually wants to have a husband and children, actually wants to be alive, and can actually cope with life without antidepressants. She gives thanks to Jordan Peterson for being the one figure who spoke to her in the darkness, and led her to the light.

But she had her artistic dream shattered. Jane talked about how she has been kicked out of every artistic association for refusing to go along with wokeness. Her silence equals violence. In one example, she said declining to affirm this or that thing got her reported to the authority in charge of the group. The offended students said nothing to her personally. She only learned that they had been offended when the adult in charge of the group called her in and warned her that she had made others feel unsafe. Typical wokesters: sneakily appealing to authority to make disagreement, or just a refusal to be coerced, into an issue of personal security.

Jane will not be able to become the artist she wanted to be. That is clear now. That world is closed to her. But she has her freedom, and her integrity. She lives not by lies. Me, I could hardly believe that someone so young and vulnerable-seeming could be so brave and so self-assured. Listening to her tell her story, I thought that I am looking at the 2022 equivalent of Havels Greengrocer. Just to be around someone who is willing to suffer bravely for the truth, as Jane has, is incredibly inspiring. If you meet her, you might not realize at first the kind of courage you are seeing, because she is so modest. But this woman is a lioness!

In fact, I have met a surprising number of people young people both at Oxford and Cambridge, who understand exactly whats happening, and who are looking for ways to resist. They know that they are a minority, but their Christian faith, and their personal integrity, makes them conclude that they have no choice. Thank God they have older figures like the Cambridge philosopher of religion James Orr, who runs Trinity Forum at this university, to rely on for advice. Im finding out that there is a quiet but effective network of older resisters operating in the UK. Later this morning, I will meet with some who are working above ground, and will report back.

So, I will leave you with hope. The atrocity story that TullipR tells is infuriating, especially when you realize that all the institutions in our culture have lined up to draw troubled people like him into this meat grinder, and to destroy anyone who dares to resist. But people like Jordan Peterson, who has been living not by lies since that day years ago at his university, when he refused to be coerced into using pseudo-pronouns, are inspiring resistance from others and even, in Janes case, saving a young persons life.

The fight is going to get more intense. Read the latest Substack newsletter from the invaluable Abigail Shrier. Excerpt:

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis earned uncommon rebuke from conservative pundits last week, when he indicatedhe might sic child protective services on parents who take their children to drag shows.

Im a very big fan of DeSantis and very not a fan of kids at drag shows, writerBethany Mandel wrote on Twitter. But conservatives have to recognize the Pandoras box were opening by involving CPS in judgment call parenting decisions. Its not abuse.

Mandel is right: Child Protective Services should not be sent after these families. Parents ought to be free to make all kinds of decisions regarding what ideas to expose their children to, how and whenespecially with regard to matters that we typically consider private and deeply personal: Religion is one. Sexuality, another.

But heres the hitch: as with so many of our institutions, CPS has already become thoroughly politicized and weaponized by the Left. Dozens and dozens of loving parents have told me over the last two years that CPS showed up at their homes or threatened their custody or even testified against them in court, all for the sin of failing to affirm their minor childs newly-announced gender identity or vetoing the kids immediate medical transition.

In California, matters head from bad to worse: anew billaspires to transform California into a sanctuary state for gender-swapping youth, making it possible for even a non-custodial parent who wishes to transition her child against her spouses (or ex-spouses) wishes, to run to California and proceed.

Here, then, is the question: If our ultimate goal is return to a normalcy in which government agencies and corporations treat all Americans fairly regardless of viewpoint, how are we to achieve this? First, acknowledge that they are already weaponized and the artillery points only in one direction: against the opponents of the Left. Acknowledge that an ever-increasing tyranny is ratcheted upon those who dare criticize the indefatigable encroachment of gender ideology. The playing field is about as level as San Franciscos Filbert Street.

Read it all. This once again confirms my belief that Viktor Orban is one of the only major politicians in the West who understands whats really happening, and how to fight it. The old paradigm, the one under which so many conservatives still live, is not enough to fight this David and Goliath battle.

Join the Rebel Alliance! You meet the best people, and its invigorating to be fighting for truth, beauty, and goodness.

Finally, I just had a conversation this morning, over coffee, with a young criminologist who is keen on studying civilizational decline. Im going to interview him later about his latest paper (hes about to be finished with it). Using statistical analysis, he talks about how the collapse of the normative family, and normative gender relations, means that we really are living through the fall of civilization right now. He explained this to me, but Im going to save it all for the interview Ill do with him when he completes his paper.

He has not read The Benedict Option, but when I told him the thesis, he said, Thats exactly right meaning that the only reasonable thing to do now is to build arks within which to ride out the tempest.

The twitchy stump really is a sign of the times. I know many of you are tired of hearing me say it, but once again: Prepare.
