During the week, Charlie Weis continually emphasized his hope to have a packed stadium for Senior Night when the Jayhawks host Iowa State on Saturday.

Now, Weis is doing his part to make sure that happens, tweeting on Thursday night that he'll pay for all student tickets at the game.

Kansas is 1-9 on the year, with the lone win coming in the opener against South Dakota State.

All KU students. Not going to the game because you don't have a ticket? No problem, I'm buying! Send our seniors off the right way!

Go to the student entrance on the northeast side of the stadium on Saturday between 4 and 6pmwith a valid student ID.I'll pick up the tab!

Tickets will be on a first come basis. See you at kickoff!
