so you fix a teams weakness immediately with HS olinemen?

That weakness is a direct result of losing guys to transfer and poor recruiting of high school o-line prospects.  Alesana Alesana doesn't make K-State's o-line any better. 

[cireksu]

It wasn't Prince's fault snyder's guys sucked and or couldn't hack it in his system.  That's what happens when you take over a program. 

[catzacker]

ku's recruiting class is solid and will just keep getting better.  I know K-State fans don't understand the concept of recruiting high school offensive lineman above 2-stars, but ku's got two guys coming in that are 6'5 320 and 6'4 330 respectively.  Tanner Hawkinson and Tim Biere are both big TE's who can come in and contribute at ku right away.  Throw in Kale Pick, the #11 dual-threat QB in the country, along with Daymond Patterson, and ku's recruiting class this season has been a huge success. 

2* players or worse, suck.

Sincerely,
4 of the 5 ku starting OL vs. KSU

 - Cantrell, Rodriguez, Collins, Mayes (all 2*'s)

P.S. JUCO 3*'s are just as terrible.

Sincerely,
Chet Hartley (the 5th ku OL who is a 3*)

KSU's O-Line has given up 5 sacks the entire season.

FWIW.

It comes down to this.  In home visits by coach.  You have Prince visit.  Then you have mangina visit.  While there, they both ask if they may use the restroom.  Question is, how fast can you call the realtor after mangina comes out of there?

I know he's a JUCO...but FOUR STARS (OMG)

 

[sonofdaxjones]

Let me get this straight . . . a staff that's been in place for a year and a half is already suppossed to have a covey of high quality high school offensive lineman in the fold that are already fully prepared for full time D1 action?? 

Damn you are a tard BMW.

Kerry Meier?

[steve dave]

Kerry Meier?

ku's third best WR threat, LMFAO

[cireksu]

What were Kerry's big 12 numbers through 4 games last year?


Pick could be better than both Meier, and Reesing!

[scoopeloo]

If Prince has to have a glossy won/loss record to recruit then he's not the right guy for this job.  There are plenty of examples of fairly new coaches recruiting their asses off with elite players despite having more losses than wins.  and they didn't do it with facilities, either.  I expect ku will recruit a little better with their misrepresented 7-0 record (really it's 2-0).  But that shouldn't keep KSU from improving their recruiting.  I've been concerned about recruiting since Prince arrived and I'm not sure he's shown a consistent ability to recruit well enough to rise in the big 12.  You've got to have some recruiters who can just sign up guys through their relationships and salesmanship.  That's how bad programs become good.

[Sandman]

KSU has had better recruiting classes (according to the ratings) at least 4 out of the last five years (and that one year we were about even).  We have won 3 of the last four games.  That, to me, means more.  I do hope Kansas has higher rated classes here in the future, but we have been playing KSU just fine with lower rated classes.

[BMWJhawk]

Kerry Meier?

Just another guy that signed with Kansas over K-State.  A 6'3 220 lb. QB with 4.5 speed and great hands.  Not bad for a backup QB.

zacker just served you in the face, FWIW.

We kinda backed off, we were after bigger fish (Portis, Robinson)

[BMWJhawk]

Oh, the classic "we didn't really want him anyways" excuse.

Well played.

[cireksu]

Sure we wanted Kerry, just like we wanted Dylan, Webb, and Evridge.  OUr qb recruiting sucked complete, anal wart infested ass since 1999!!!  Until freeman that is.

Kerry was just a part of that.

[SUPERKSUFAN]

Oh, the classic "we didn't really want him anyways" excuse.

Well played.

We did....as a kicker (never QB)

[BMWJhawk]

Right... so you're telling me you'd rather have Carson Coffman as your backup QB than Kerry Meier.

LOL.

[cireksu]

They both suck.

[BMWJhawk]

A healthy Kerry Meier is good.  He wasn't at full strength most of last season.

[leawoodcat]

Oh, the classic "we didn't really want him anyways" excuse.

Well played.

Unfortunately, he left with Snyder but we got Kevin Lopina that year, who was rated higher than KM.  KM is a decent athlete; I wouldn't mind have him as a WR. But holding him out as a uk recruiting coup over K-State is ridiculous when it was obvious he was a plan B for us.

Try again.

[cireksu]

He was only good against crap competition, like someone else who played god like against crap competition and has looked very average in big 12 play.

Either that or Reesing is hurt.

[BMWJhawk]

Reesing has been very good in Big 12 play.  I really see no way you can argue otherwise. 

[SUPERKSUFAN]

LOL.

Yes.  Kerry is an FP

Coffman's throwing shoulder doesn't need constant surgery

[leawoodcat]

Right... so you're telling me you'd rather have Carson Coffman as your backup QB than Kerry Meier.

LOL.

This question makes no sense. Coffman was a class behind Meier. We took Lopina over Meier.

[steve dave]

We took Lopina over Meier.
