Beaty’s father was a police officer in Dallas
Jayhawks coach hopes college football can be a positive example for the nation
DALLAS
Kansas coach David Beaty chose to start his talk at Big 12 Media Days with something other than football.
“As many of you know, I am from the Dallas area and my father is a police officer here. My heart hurts for the Dallas communities and for communities across the country that are suffering and in pain right now,” Beaty said, referencing a Dallas shooting that killed five police officers on July 7.
