Remembering Dr. Scott “Scooter” Ward with Tyrel Reed
Friday, 9 January, 2026
In this episode of The Jayhawker Podcast, hosted by Nate Bukaty, we mourn the passing of beloved KU Athletics administrator Dr. Scott Ward affectionately known as “Scooter.” Nate is joined by former KU men’s basketball standout Tyrel Reed, who shares personal stories from his long relationship with Scooter. Together, they reflect on who Scooter was as a person, the profound impact he had on countless student-athletes, and how Tyrel viewed him as a father figure both on and off the court. The conversation also highlights how Scooter’s disability never slowed him down or kept him from doing what he loved. The episode closes with a discussion of KU men’s basketball’s thrilling overtime comeback win against TCU, and how Tyrel felt Scooter’s presence during that magical night in Allen Fieldhouse.
