Can't argue with anything he says, seems pretty well informed and in tune with most K-State fans feelings about Prince and our program.
+100 cool points for mentioning both this website and the Power Towel video.  I only wish he had included one of Chum1's video's from youtube.

He picks us 4th in the divison, yet in the ISU write up he says the KSU - ISU game is the battle for last place. 

Otherwise, a good write up.

&@#%, I hate Ron.

A good independent site is KSUFans.com.

Where Wildcat fans congregate: A good independent site is KSUFans.com. For Wildcat fans interested in the dynamic recruiting machine that is Ron Prince, check out GoPowercat.com. More dedicated fans should log onto the Kansas City Star site. There’s a lot of anti-Nebraska vitriol at these sites, which all hardcore K-State fans love.

F-ing tits, they didn't even get our rival right. :hornsdown

Prince would tell you our only rival is Texas.

Can't argue with anything he says,

How about the idea that "JUCO route" is a two year issue.  Year one with seven wasn't abnormal.  Year two is abnormal, but it might be just what we needed.

How about lumping the Prince years with the .243 winning percentage Pre-Snyder.  Prince right now is batting .480. Not good, but nowhere near Pre-Snyder.

Actually, only the last 4 games of 2007 could be considered a disaster. Win one and we are bowl eligible, not on the verge of fan implosion. :cheers:

Famous alumni (non-football related):
Both Senators from Kansas, Sam Brownback and Pat Roberts; the botanist David Fairchild; the actress Kirstie Alley.

No Granny from the Beverly Hillbillies? Arguably our most famous alum.

Why will Nebraska be improved? Where did that come from?

The offensive line will be led by the all-Big 12 left tackle Alesana Alesana

God help us all.

From the #85 LaTech page, hinting at who #84 was going to be:

"Who is No. 84?: This program had only four winning seasons between 1935-90."

It's like a slap to the face of LA Tech knowing that whoever that horrible team was they were still ranked ahead of them!

Alesana led the whole &@#%ing offense all last season...by about half a snap count.

I fully expect him to build on that this year.
