Jerome Tang Coaches Kansas State Basketball / Re: Next to NIL

An investigator uncovers the dirt behind NIL, and the vulnerability it imposes on players.  His description matches what we've known about KU for decades.

Would be happy if we could hang onto Rich, Ames, Jones, and Finister.  Yeah, they dribbled into multiple defenders and turned over the ball, but you'd think Tang will really work on our turnover problem, and we'll see more of their potential.

Will Doug Compton up his game?  Will it matter?

Saw a bunch of flood aggie fans outside T-Mobile Arena yesterday.  They were all wearing shorts and sporting fluorescent white legs.  I think they were checking out K-State to see if they were going to drive back to Iowa in a good mood or a bad mood.

remember when texas had a big lead and thought they were going to win and advance even though they aren't really even in the big 12 and shouldn't be allowed to participate at all?

 :lol:

We sat in the middle of a bunch of Texas fans, who were loud and proud.  I was too polite to laugh out loud when the game was over.

Did they start chanting SEC, SEC, SEC?    Probably just low self esteem a Mizzou thing.

I don't think Texas joining the SEC is a self-esteem thing like it was with Moo.  Texas will try to act like they own the conference within 18 months of joining.   Moo just loves being in the conference, Texas will try to control it.

Went and watched all 4 games yesterday at the T-Mobile center.  What's not getting enough attention is BYU.  They came out and hit like 7 of 8 of their first three pointers, and put UCF down early.  They eventually cooled down, but man that was impressive.  BYU will be a tough out.

Does the Big 12 conference have enough leverage in basketball to throw their weight around in the CFP negotiations.  Big 12 schools refusing to schedule SEC / Big 10 schools in basketball could have an impact.

I think this was addressed during one of their zillion renovations, but in the early 2000s, when A&M would do their swaying thing with the fans, the whole damn press box side of the stadium would shift left and right with the movement - you could literally feel the stands moving back and forth (like being at the top of the Arch, but worse). If you don't know it's coming (I didn't) it's incredibly unnerving.

I wonder if they used the same engineering skills that they used for the '99 bonfire.

I feel bad for our Jayhawk brothers in this prospective conference realignment with 48 super teams:

K-State would be in the SEC Southwest division, our Jayhawk brothers are left out.

The staff shakeup is definitely #2 on the things to watch. #1 is whether Daniels will be healthy for the actual conference portion of the season. He's looked great against inferior teams but despite being there like 3 seasons now he's more of an unknown than Avery is.

Based purely on recruiting rankings, their QB room is pretty bad with the exception of their incoming true freshman. But, even if their next-in-line QB outperforms the rankings, there's nobody near Bean's capabilities to save them if Daniels goes down again.

This may not be the place, but that reminds me to ask about the gameworthiness of Barnett, Knuth, and Simoncic if AJ gets hurt?

I'm not sure if I should mention this, but I have it on good authority that 'clams secretly loves Lawrence. After all, it IS the best town in Kansas. Or Kanza, if you will.

I went to play disc golf at Centennial Park - holy cats!  Homeless people everywhere.  So I scooted over to Riverfront Park to play that course, and what did I find?  Even more homeless people than were at Centennial.   I heard the homeless problem was even worse over at Johnny's by the bridge.  I guess if you go for the seedy vibe, Lawrence is your kind of place.

Good for him. Going over .500 at KU is a monumental achievement and not one to be taken lightly.

He's managed that in one of his three seasons.  That's awesome for KU, but he would be on the hot seat at K-State.

I don't know if RaeQuan Battle has a good shooting % on those jump shots from beyond the arc, but he almost led West Virginia to a win against us with those.  I've never seen a player shoot jump shots from beyond the arc very frequently, but Battle did it consistently and with a high % against us.  Plus, he was pulling down rebounds like crazy.  We need a dude like that.

Refs swallowed their whistles for us at the end, felt good.
they really didn’t let wvu get the bullshit calls they were trying to get

Yeah, Kerr Kriisa was so bad at flopping that you either wanted to laugh, or punch him in the face.

Qatz will win 3 of their remaining 4 games, and will have to win at least 1 game in the Big 12 torn-a-ment to get an invite to the NCAA torn-a-ment.  I think their only loss is to KU at AFH.

17
Between Massa Seff's heart attack and NIL, KU's days of dominating the conference are over.  Houston will be one of many kings in the coming years.

Pete, you and I don't see a lot of these business of college sports issues the same way. This is one where I think we'll find some common ground. This is real bad.

With their expansion of some of college football’s biggest brands, the SEC and Big Ten are expected to seek a bigger cut of the revenue pie as well as a governance structure that grants them more autonomy.

SEC and Big 10 are the uncultured swine of collegiate sports.

Between the turnovers, poor shooting, and crap officiating, this was painful to watch.

Very sad to see Hawk fans trying to ride the Chiefs' coattails:

Quote
In the last 2 calendar years going back from today, KU/Chiefs fans have experienced:
• 3 KU Hoops Big 12 Titles (2 Reg/1 Tourney)
• A KU Hoops National Championship
• 2 Bowl Eligible KU Football Teams (1 Win)
• 2 Chiefs Super Bowl Wins

Even more sad they have to use Missouri so often in telling the world how great they are, kind of exposes epic levels of insecurity.

I assume the PJ Fleck to UCLA is a troll

It depends on whether you'd want to be a Golden Gopher or a Trojan.

Looks like the Gophers are going to lose P.J. Fleck to UCLA

Can't believe you guys didn't know about the Doc.

I know more about Doc than I care to.

Wait, Doc Sadler was at the game?
He’s bill self’s x/o’s a ace in the pocket

I knew he was on Self's staff up to 2013, but quietly left before the end of the season.  Are you saying he's back at KU?
