Dalonte makes more now as an assistant than Self did in his first year of head coaching. LOL @ Self, he's basically the K-Mart of Koaching.
Bill Self could buy Delonte Hill and his entire family if he wanted to.
ku people are so cute when they brag about other peoples money.
Great work. 
So are you

The architecture firm is being chosen for the additions to Bramlage and a total overhaul of the West Side of the stadium right now.
The new buildings on the West Concourse are going to get moved back to make the west concourse bigger, and all the new buildings will be limestone, they'll also be all knew walkways and a plaza area on the west side (so some west side parking is going to be lost). The next phase will be an addition to the pressbox which will make it stretch from goal line to goal line. Once that's done KSU Stadium will have nearly 100 skyboxes and two club seating areas.
A certain other D1 stadium in the state of Kansas is a drab, dank, ugly building on the outside, with a high school track and amenities on the upper level that make slums look great.

What's taking so long?? Well it's called having a former AD who drug his feet on everything because he was only interested in doing the cheapest projects. We have an AD now who is only interested in doing it right the first time, which is why the desired project has shifted back to the original concepts (vastly superior to what Timid Timmy was watering it down to) and the RFP for architectural services had to be rewritten accordingly.
For example Timid Timmy was watering it down to only building new dressing room for the men's program, and only having 1.5 practice courts. AD Krause wants all new offices and dressing rooms for men's and women's basketball and 2 full basketball practice courts and a new entrance into Bramlage for K-State teams via a tunnel underneath the west side.

There's no need for K-State to consider ku big brother, because in terms of economic impact on the state, impact on the major industries and being set up for future economic impact on the state, the United States and the World. . . there's no comparison between K-State and ku, it's K-State in a landslide. That's why ku whines about K-State's new bio research park in Olathe (and demands to be a part of it) and a whole bunch of other stuff in Topeka.
Seriously . . . you think sports has a huge impact on the state. Like say, the same impact as K-State's agri research which directly impacts BILLIONS of dollars in ag commodities that the state produces??
The Edwards campus is where people go get masters degrees after they leave the office.
The K-State campus in Olathe will be a Bio Research Facility.

ku already has its own bio research facility at the ku med center. It's sad that you actually believe your own bullsh*t. I've never seen someone so unable to accept the truth.
Then why did ku go and whine to legislatures in Topeka and demand to part of K-State's Olathe campus??
It's not BS, it's reality.
If true... probably because ku has much more experience in the field of bio research and actually has its own medical school. Just a guess.
Actually not in this kind of Bio Research . . . btw Ft. Dodge Animal Health is putting in a $40 million dollar research facility on that campus. The Kansas BioScience Authority will also occupy a big chunk of the campus right next to K-State . . . this has the squawks extremely nervous. Thus all the whining in Topeka.
Etc.
