That would be a first, a new coaching staff, and guys from the old regime quitting.

That's never happened at any other program in the history of college football.

Back in 1989, you needed a calculator to add up all the guys that quit under Snyder's methods.

    THE b IS NOT CAPITALIZED
If you signed on to play for Snyder... and he retires... and Prince moves in giving the place the complete opposite feel... would you stick around?
I'm telling you, this is not ANYTHING like the team from the beginning of conference play. You will see no more blowouts like what happened in OOC.  If we lose, it will not because these kids gave up, and it will be at the buzzer. -Rodless, before 97-70

Not if I could be starting at Florida, Florida State, or Miami...


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Is this a possible option for even a single one of your players?

Nine players, including wide receiver Jermaine Moreira, safety Marcus Watts and offensive lineman Greg Wafford, still must pass a conditioning test before they will be allowed to practice with the Kansas State football team, it was announced Monday.

Five players who flunked the first test passed it Sunday: Running back Donnie Anders and offensive linemen Michael Frieson, John Hafferty, Brad Rooker and Gerard Spexarth. The nine who have to pass the test were scheduled to get another crack at it Monday, but results won’t be available until today.

Now that would be extremely flawed logic.

Not sure I follow you, wildcat nation

Coach Prince discussed that he didn't want any of the players who weren't physically ready to particpate in any type of drills, especially here in Kansas, where it reaches well over 100 degrees! Coach Prince wanted to make sure that each player was "battle tested" and could take on the drills head and on, and keep the times he requested. If not, then they were "out of shape", and shouldn't be practicing in drills with this kind of weather. Where do you see the flawed logic?

hate to rain on everyone's piss parade, but it's amazing to me that only 4 players on the entire roster have not been able to pass the test.

i figured 10-12 would be limited by some kind of injury at this point.  worst case is only 4 players are injured right now.  and that's the absolute worst case.

not shabby.

I'm worried about the number of OL and DL guys that were, and still are, on the list. It's cliche but football games are won in the trenches (up front).

At least Prince is trying to make it better. I like the accountability he's making the players have.
