FERENTZ JOINS CHALLENGE

mentors.
For three years, Kansas and Nebraska have competed in a
Coaches Mentoring Challenge, with Bo Pelini (Nebraksa),
Bill Snyder (Kansas State) and Turner Gill (Kansas) taking
part in the competition. Ferentz and Rhoads have joined the
competition this season.
According to The National Mentoring Partnership, there
