Probably John Wooden, I heard he always wanted to coach there. Seriously though, if they get Huggins, I'll be totally pissed.

Yeah, he would prob. instantly turn their horrible recruiting around. :ohno:

Look what he did with all the white kids at WV in one year. It would be so perfect for him, I'm scared that it will probably happen. Why did Self have to leave?

Who is on ku's short list??

And ku doesn't even have any good recruits to pillage!

Bill Self's most flown routes
* Lawrence, KS KLWC / Oklahoma City, OK KOKC 4 flights
Only a matter of time...

I heard that if Self would have left ku for Oklahoma State, Tom Izzo was ready to pack his bags and move to Lawrence.

Yeah and I heard that you were born with both male and female genetalia. Link?

1988 ku wins tainted title, Brown says he's staying (not going back to UCLA) then bolts for NBA job with Spurs
2008 Memphis gives ku tainted title, Self says he's staying (not going back to Okie State) then ?????
Calipari to ku scares me....
My hopes for ku:
1. Turdgeon
2. Jankovich
3. Stallings

The non-phog.net ku tards, you know, the ones that work in your office and are the "biggest ku fans ever" really like Danny Manning. He'd be a crappier version of Frank Martin.

They need to think of another name. Thunder is just...ahhhh...sounds like a name that a 10 year old would come up with when hes creating a team on College Hoops.

How about the OKC Radical! Could have sponsorship from:

In the future they will move a team to Kansas City.

Manning as a coach is like the worst thing to happen to ku. Dude spends to much time hanging with his kids at their house in Fall Creek Farms or eating dinner out with his wife. They love the Herford House.

Uhh... yeah. K-State was under investigation... they just didn't find any evidence of wrongdoing. Apparently Izzo hinted that he had quite a bit of interest in the ku job if it opened up. That's all I know. Believe what you want.

So.... Lots of people have interest in the uk1 job, including me. Hire me.
Of course lets not forget that the head job mangino got was much more noteworthy....

So will they be the Oklahoma City Thunder or the Oklahoma Thunder. Too many syllables. :runaway:

Oklahoma City

You think someone in OKC would have thought of this before having the team moved. Thunder??? How do you make a logo for that? You either make a lightning bolt even though you aren't the Lightning or you make a really big ominous cloud. That's a winner. Way to plan ahead OKC.

We ascribe to the theory that if you can't be great at it, don't do it. And obviously ku has shwon you can't maintain an upper echelon law school in the Kansas Regents system.

You might want to rethink that statement. Also, if finishing 2nd in the North is so pathetic, what does that say about the team that finished 4th?

"And it's not as though the Jayhawks don't have a few weapons of their own returning in '08. They do return 15 starters from last year's Orange Bowl championship team that tied Missouri for the Big 12 North title. And they have a trophy from the Big 12 Conference to prove it."

and where is it even in top 50? I'm seeing in the 70's on US News and other objective sites. Are they top 50 in "University of Kansas Law School's ranking of law schools"?

Uh, KSU football was a disaster last season. Where was that disputed? KSU does have 4 North trophies that they didn't even have to make for themselves.

Bragging about division titles is very KSU-esque. When your program starts winning National Championships and BCS Bowls, you might understand.

Pretty sure it's top 50 for public schools. Regardless, ku is ranked ahead of K-State overall. I believe you were the last school to make the cut in US News' top 100. Congrats.

This reminds me of a conversation I had with a ku fan at work last week regarding all the championship trophies that they have been WON when they actually tied and technically finished second due to tie breakers. It went something like this...
Rick Daris: Let's think about this for a sec, why do they give a trophy to teams who tie and actually finish second due to tie breakers? Hmm, very interesting.
ku fan: I'm listening.
Rick Daris: Here's how I see it. The Big 12 gives you a trophy 'cause they want you to fell all warm and toasty inside.
ku fan: Yeah, makes a school feel good.
Rick Daris: 'Course it does. Ya think if you leave that trophy under your pillow at night, the Trophy Fairy might come by and leave a quarter.
ku fan: What's your point?
Rick Daris: The point is, how do you know the Trophy Fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Building model airplanes" says the little fairy, but we're not buying it. Next thing you know, there's money missing off the dresser and your daughter's knocked up, I seen it a hundred times.
ku fan: But why did they give us a trophy then?
Rick Daris: Because they know all they gave ya was a piece of crap trophy . That's all it is. Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and call it a trophy, I will. I got spare time. But for right now, for your sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about giving it up and admitting you really didn't win anything.

He could get into just about any architecture program he wanted. Both his brothers go to K-State and he felt that ku's architecture program was much more innovative and modern than K-State's. I'm not saying K-State's architecture and engineering programs aren't excellent, all I'm saying is that they center more around construction science and your cookie-cutter residential housing.

my source, aka , the brother of the mailman that new this guy who was hit by a car driven by some lady who was the aunt of this other dude who once thought about going into architecture said that uk was innovative... so there.
If you saw the work that came out kstate, then you wouldn't think it was "cookie-cutter". When you talk, you really should stick to things you actually understand.

Yep... those construction companies are always looking for someone to design the next cookie-cutter house.

Dude everything you've spewed on this thread is like you just cut and pasted the bilge from threads on the same topics from phog.net.
There's several people on this forum (K-State alums) who are architects, one with one of the most prestigious sports design firms in the world, (several of the Senior Partners there are K-State alums) I wonder if they design "cookie cutter houses" . . . face it, when you get pissy you talk straight out of your ass, and have nothing original.
Now, who is on ku's short list??

Ben, you're utterly clueless.
Considering how selective the program has become and the heightened entrance standards for K-State’s Architecture program, my suspicion is your "friend" didn't get accepted. Some people have to go to UMKC when they don’t get into ku law, it happens.
It's not even debatable, K-State's architecture program is superior to ku's in virtually every facet.
There's a reason it is ranked in the Top 5-10 nationally on an annual basis and THE best in this region. The curiculum is tougher, the faculty is more highly recognized, and the students are more prepared and highly sought after entering the work force according to the top firms in the U.S.
This notion that ku's program is more "modern" and progressive is hilarious. Not only is there a higher emphasis on theoretical design, the curriculum itself is more well rounded with more opportunity for specialization. Yes, K-State offers a construction science degree and many architecture students parlay that with a bachelor of architecture degree by taking an extra two years. We also have an Arch-E program that blows anything ku offers out of the water. Our interior architecture program and landscape architecture program are consistently ranked in the Top 5 in the country, IA is usually one or two.
You want to puff out your chest about the Law School and Med School, great. Don't talk out of your ass about Architecture, Planning and Design because there is no comparison. None.

KSU Pre-Med students have a higher acceptance rate into ku Med than ku Pre-Med students do!!!! LOL!

It shows ku is ranked 73rd. Spin it how you want. ku is no one's first choice and rarely even a 2nd choice. It is definition of "safety school" and really, they should save their money and wrap that thing up.

Each year, DesignIntelligence and the Design Futures Council conduct a nation-wide survey of leading firms across the United States, in conjunction with the Almanac of Architecture and Design, to determine the top colleges and universities for architecture and design in the U.S. because, in their opinion, quality matters. A cross-section of U.S. firms with a disbursed geographic profile, including firms that are leaders in their market sector and that have won major national, state, local and market-sector awards, were surveyed. They were asked to indicate which accredited programs in the past five years produced graduates most prepared for today’s and tomorrow’s real-world practice.
The survey was targeted to those individuals-directors of design, managing principals and human resource directors-in each firm who have direct experience with the hiring and performance of graduates. Approximately 270 firms and organizations with 568,500 employees participated in this year’s research.
Both K-State’s bachelor’s and master’s programs in landscape architecture have been ranked in the top eight in the four years the survey has covered those programs. The K-State interior architecture/design programs have been in the top eight during all nine years in which the study has been conducted. This is the seventh time K-State’s architecture program has been ranked in the top twelve.
The College of Architecture, Planning and Design is currently transitioning its bachelor’s degree programs into master’s degrees in architecture, interior architecture and product design, and landscape architecture.
The 2008 study also queried participants about what educators they admired, how programs rated in various skill sets, and sustainability.
Employers in the Midwest ranked K-State’s architecture program as the best nationwide and in the Midwest. Southern employers ranked K-State’s architecture program as ninth best nationwide. With respect to skills assessment, employers ranked K-State’s architecture program second in construction methods and materials, third in communication skills, and fourth in analysis and planning. In addition, the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB) reported that 96 percent of K-State architecture graduates have passed the pre-design portion of the Architect Registration Examination (ARE), required in the practice of architecture. This compares to a current aggregate rank of 63 to 77 percent.
K-State’s landscape architecture program was ranked first by employers in the West, eighth by employers in the East, second by employers in the Midwest, and fourth by employers in the South. With respect to skills assessment, employers ranked K-State’s landscape architecture program first in security design principles, first in analysis and planning, first in construction methods and materials, first in design, fourth in sustainable design practices and principles, and fifth in computer applications.
The K-State interior architecture/design programs were ranked fourth by employers in the West and first by employers in the Midwest. With respect to skills assessments, K-State ranked first in cross discipline experience, second in sustainable design practices and principles, and third in quality of graphic presentation.
Although K-State offers separate programs in interior architecture, through the College of Architecture, Planning and Design, and in interior design, through the College of Human Ecology, both programs are combined for survey purposes.
Another survey question asked participants to nominate their most admired and respected educators based on their recent experiences with colleges and universities. Dennis Law, dean of the K-State College of Architecture, Planning and Design, was included in that list of 28 educators.
Finally, this year’s DesignIntelligence surveyed architecture students on quality and value. Of the students who responded regarding Kansas State University, 100 percent said they would recommend K-State to other students and 79 percent rated their education as excellent, the second highest response of schools whose students were asked to participate in this part of the survey.
According to its sponsors, this survey is in its tenth year and can be used, along with other considerations, to help current and future students plan their educational paths.
There are approximately 114 accredited interior architecture/interior design programs, 119 accredited architecture programs, and 45 accredited undergraduate and 30 accredited graduate landscape architecture programs in the U.S .

ku's architecture and engineering programs are much more innovative and modern than K-State's. Your programs are more centered around construction science. I know this because one of my best friends chose ku's architecture program over k-State's for this exact reason.
Ben, you're utterly clueless.
Considering how selective the program has become and the heightened entrance standards for K-State’s Architecture program, my suspicion is your "friend" didn't get accepted. Some people have to go to UMKC when they don’t get into ku law, it happens.
It's not even debatable, K-State's architecture program is superior to ku's in virtually every facet.
There's a reason it is ranked in the Top 5-10 nationally on an annual basis and THE best in this region. The curiculum is tougher, the faculty is more highly recognized, and the students are more prepared and highly sought after entering the work force according to the top firms in the U.S.
This notion that ku's program is more "modern" and progressive is hilarious. Not only is there a higher emphasis on theoretical design, the curriculum itself is more well rounded with more opportunity for specialization. Yes, K-State offers a construction science degree and many architecture students parlay that with a bachelor of architecture degree by taking an extra two years. We also have an Arch-E program that blows anything ku offers out of the water. Our interior architecture program and landscape architecture program are consistently ranked in the Top 5 in the country, IA is usually one or two.
You want to puff out your chest about the Law School and Med School, great. Don't talk out of your ass about Architecture, Planning and Design because there is no comparison. None.
QFT as someone who went through the CAPD program, Ben, you should really shut your mouth. entrance into the program is now set around a 28 ACT and in the top 5-10% of your graduating class. maybe your source is ghey? who knows.....
-
Isn't our Arch program going to a 5yr MS degree now? I thought I heard that they were dropping the undergrad program for a 3yr selective program. That is, you have to qualify to get in as a Soph & when you finish you have an MS degree.

When you remove outliers at the top (Ivy League, Stanford, Chicago, etc.) these sort of lists are pretty much inversely proportional to the quality of undergraduate education. The more research faculty are doing the more likely a bunch of know-nothing grad students will be 'teaching' the undergrad courses. KSU is an *exceptional* undergraduate teaching institution; grad programs, with a few exceptions, not so much.

Limestone, that link actually shows all of the 1st-tier law schools in the United States. ku is in the top 50 for public schools. K-State obviously doesn't even have a law school.
because if there is anything the world needs, its more lawyers. :flush:

Our law school is top 50. What exactly is K-State great at, by the way? Soil judging?

I think uk finally got accredited a few years ago... basically their architecture school wasn't even recognized.
top 50 is laughable...
ku's architecture and engineering programs are much more innovative and modern than K-State's. Your programs are more centered around construction science. I know this because one of my best friends chose ku's architecture program over k-State's for this exact reason.
Bragging about division titles is very KSU-esque. When your program starts winning National Championships and BCS Bowls, you might understand.
Bragging about a 73rd ranked law school is pretty awesome too.
Pretty sure it's top 50 for public schools. Regardless, ku is ranked ahead of K-State overall. I believe you were the last school to make the cut in US News' top 100. Congrats.

Top 50 is nothing to brag about for law schools. That's even worse than 2nd place in the north.
You might want to rethink that statement. Also, if finishing 2nd in the North is so pathetic, what does that say about the team that finished 4th?

"And it's not as though the Jayhawks don't have a few weapons of their own returning in '08. They do return 15 starters from last year's Orange Bowl championship team that tied Missouri for the Big 12 North title. And they have a trophy from the Big 12 Conference to prove it."
Uh, KSU football was a disaster last season. Where was that disputed? KSU does have 4 North trophies that they didn't even have to make for themselves.
Reading comprehension must not be your strongsuit.

This reminds me of a conversation I had with a ku fan at work last week regarding all the championship trophies that they have been WON when they actually tied and technically finished second due to tie breakers. It went something like this...
Rick Daris: Let's think about this for a sec, why do they give a trophy to teams who tie and actually finish second due to tie breakers? Hmm, very interesting.
ku fan: I'm listening.
Rick Daris: Here's how I see it. The Big 12 gives you a trophy 'cause they want you to fell all warm and toasty inside.
ku fan: Yeah, makes a school feel good.
Rick Daris: 'Course it does. Ya think if you leave that trophy under your pillow at night, the Trophy Fairy might come by and leave a quarter.
ku fan: What's your point?
Rick Daris: The point is, how do you know the Trophy Fairy isn't a crazy glue sniffer? "Building model airplanes" says the little fairy, but we're not buying it. Next thing you know, there's money missing off the dresser and your daughter's knocked up, I seen it a hundred times.
ku fan: But why did they give us a trophy then?
Rick Daris: Because they know all they gave ya was a piece of crap trophy . That's all it is. Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and call it a trophy, I will. I got spare time. But for right now, for your sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about giving it up and admitting you really didn't win anything.

ku's programs aren't more "innovative" nor are they more "modern". In fact, the only non-modern architecture school is Notre Dame's who's focus is on a beaux-arts style of design. The fact you trying to quantify this shows your knowledge of the situation.
As for KSU's architecture program, it's not centered around "construction science" as you like to put it. That's what a construction science degree is for. There are major focuses on construction, though. Considering the most important job for an architect is properly communicating to a contractor how to build whatever is being designed, I'd say major focuses on construction are important. ku seriously lacks in this department, and it shows in the work force. This does not detract from the design focus, though. Despite your best (seriously? this is your best?) assumptions, I can guarantee you there is absolutely no focus on "cookie cutter housing." In terms of professors, I can think of 2 ku professors that would be top notch designers. KSU has 10 that I can think of, not including the handful of new ones from last year. Well, you know what, I'm just going to stop. Pulling third hand opinions out of your ass must have been painful enough.
