The rumor mill on social media and reddit is extremely negative for Leach.  Hoping for some good news.
Seems to be the person people are referencing for updates (mostly behind the 247 paywall though).

Weird to see the people with sources and claims of details.  Lile that's fine for finding flight tail numbers and speculating on cruits.  But the I live a block away from the hospital and know people who know people or I know things but HIPPA.... Gmafb.

Surprised you didn't end up as a coordinator somewhere (NFL) already

lol, "just hookers" he was also using his state owned cell phone for booking said hookers iirc. I also think he paid by check.

I don’t put him on the same level as Briles, probably somewhere in the ballpark of Meyer.

For as sloppy as urban was, he had some soccer mom sitting in his lap, he didn't use his state issued cell phone to break the law. I'd compare him to a jesus'y hypocrite version of Bobby Petrino.

Yeah, but if you include his UF days just under the Jesusbow veneer he gets pretty scummy pretty fast.

No offense edn, but people really need to stop reading, posting, and generally paying attention to anything from that dumbfuck. He's no more sourced than jayhawk takeover.

Lol harsh but fair.

I was surprised at how the claim (admittedly reddit rumors) went from contract extension for LL which seems the prudent thing to do, to rumors of a brand new stadium, a convention center attached to the tune of 350M, and reno of practice facilities.

You have to wonder if they actually paid face value for those tickets, or were they sold at a "volume discount", like a buck a ticket.
I always wondered if some of that was card game and the donor got hella whatever their version of Ahearn points or if they have business sponsorship that those ticket buys level out with other financial deals on the sponsorship end.

I don't think a "no comment" in this situation is odd at all. Any comment at this point should be dumb and generic so wgaf
I kinda like the moxie Okie St's pres brought.

I wonder what spiteful things we can do as fans during games against Texas and OU this year.  We need to be the opposite of stoic about this.

Throw Monopoly money on the field, enough to stop play.
I really enjoyed the kick in the ass A&M got on the way out the door.

@MakeItRain I agree 100% there is a vanity process going on here.  When the dust settles from this latest round of chaos I'm sure some intrepid reporter will write another fluff piece for old white bros to retcon a sound reasoning blaming everyone else and not their egos.

I remember talking about pods and high volume posters here said it wouldn't happen.

I'm certain in the context that theory was posted those high volume posters were correct after all that Missouri and A&M joined the conference 10 years ago. I don't know if you can hold on to a lottery ticket for 10-13 years then get to cash it in when your numbers eventually hit.

It was more 8ish years ago when the Big12 had the opportunity to grab st least Florida State, Clemson, and Louisville as the North Carolina basketball schools negotiated a meh ACC TV contract. The Big 12 could have been raiders instead of the prize.  It's always been a march towards pods and still is.  It's easier to graft to a qausi playoff, it's cleaner than BCS and now this current playoff iteration.  But the near universal opinion here was nah, we got that TV money split 10 ways, the GOR, and it's in the way way future time of 2025, surely there will be better times ahead after that too.  Cashing in on nothing but saying the writing was on the walls.  Get to stability or you'll always be on soft footing.  What people need to push for now is stability and safety for K-State more than 8 to 10 years out.  Recall it wasn't Nebraska or a&m that made the first push that started this whole thing over a decade ago

Serious question, what would it take to reach a breaking point to actually drop football? Say the NCAA comes down hard on KU athletics. Say multi year postseason ban, loss of scholarships, recruiting restrictions... the works. Les Miles experiment fails spectacularly, revenue drops in basketball because of the sanctions and football continues being a black hole of suck for another 5 years.

Does the conversation realistically take place?
I bet it's like fielding a losing baseball team in the MLB.  There is so much TV money that you can't lose (but you are also a laughing stock).  I'm sure Dax has some spreadsheets on the breaking point financially.  I mean the only other teams to really talk about it are like, UConn right?  I mean woof, but their conference wasn't doing them any favors like the Big 12 is for KU football.

Probably spot on with the revenue deal but is there still a minimum attendance figure needed to stay in "D1". -- FBS teams also have to meet minimum game attendance requirements (average 15,000 people in actual or paid attendance per home game)

This totally explains why "SELLOUT 2019" was such a monumental goal/achievement for them.

They really needed big bro to come through for them like we did.
that's crazy to think we spotted them 2 games for their 15k average.  Who else would be so kind?
