Regarding the 'Spri announcement (which may or may not be imminent)....pssssst you've had hints in the past on how this thing would play out from other media types on this board, best to listen to them, Fitz and crew are now in a pickle.
We're in a strange spot. We were given some information for the basketball preview magazine of Powercat Illustrated that mails and hits newsstands today, but the source we quote in print has asked that we still not post a story on GoPowercat til K-State makes an official announcement, which he and we expected yesterday. (Thus, why he gave us quotes right before we printed the bball preview magazine so the info was included.) We've been sitting on this for five days but there's nothing to be done if someone reads it in PI and posts a thread here. We just won't comment quite yet out of respect to our source.
I, for one, do NOT believe that GPC has a source on the 'Spri recruitment. If this is true, then they are clearly liars and not worthy to be called journalists.
However, if the "source" is real then what do you want to bet that the source wasn't informed of the "print magazine" option for breaking the news to the world, despite the request not to do this? LOL, "you never said we couldn't print it and circulate it via the mail, you just said we couldn't 'post it' on GPC." If the do have a "source," then they are liars and not worthy to be called journalists.
I'd submit that this isn't a "strange spot" at all. In fact, I'd argue that this is a VERY, VERY familiar spot.
