Obviously, Huggins is not having trouble convincing kids to move to Manhattan, Kan. "It's a great town once you get them there," he said. "The ride in between (Kansas City and Manhattan) is not terrific, but once you get there, it's a great town."

decouracy has a point, but if and when Huggins starts winning, that will help recruiting even more and hopefully distance will be outweighed by winning

Agreed.  That asterisk is nothing but bad news for our basketball future.

During a swing through western Kansas, Huggins spoke at several booster club banquets, including one that was held in a large maintenance shed surrounded by dirt. Trucks were taken out, replaced by seats. Hundreds packed the shed. More seats had to be brought outside, along with speakers, for the overflow crowd. The menu: potato salad, beans and bull testicles.

you kidding me?

There is little doubt among those in basketball circles whether Huggins will win at Kansas State or whether his arrival will result in a significant economic boost for the program. The larger question is whether the hire was worth the risk to the university's reputation.

Kansas State President Jon Wefald said Huggins has exceeded all expectations in his first seven months, but when asked whether there was more of a risk hiring Huggins than other coaches, Wefald acknowledged, "I think the fair answer to that is probably."

Was the hire really a risk?  GMFAB, look at ku, going on their second probation in 20 years, OU, Missouri, CU, Georgia, Utah, do people really give a crap anymore? Nope.  MoreCriminalsMore&@#%ingWins.

K-State is a more selective school than Mount Oread Community College.
