Title: wondering why it took 45 years?
Post by: ksudrew on February 28, 2009, 11:53:16 PM
to hang willie's number from the rafters . . .

only player in ksu history to ave a double double  :skillz: (even shalee didn't do that) 

played on last team to make the final 4  :ksu:

thoughts?

maybe every1 that should remember him is dead or alzheimered? maybe a kruger/venables skeleton that people finally forgot about? maybe hartman treated players from the former regime the same way prince did?  maybe it just took the ath dept this long to implement huggie's hang some banners speach?  :dunno:

whatever, here's to willie  :cheers: :kstatriot:

and the other five were?

my frank up - should have said ave double double, All-American in both seasons, a pair of Big Eight titles, and appearance in the Final 4

question remains - why 45 years? :kstatriot:

richmond said he would obligate his children to attend ksu.  maybe spani could be taken down and replaced?

I don't think we've been in the business of retiring numbers all that long.

was wondering why Murrell wasn't retired in order like all the others?  was it cause he was only a 2 year guy?  just kinda odd he was skipped over.

Great question.  On the women's side of things, you simply have to go four years without crapping your shorts on the floor and/or without getting knocked up and you get it as soon as you walk out the door.

We are going to have build new rafters if Deb and gang don't slow down the honors.

 :crazy:
