Honest question here fuckers,
Is there any previous KSU players that you think should have their jerseys retired that havn't been yet?

yes, fake wildcatnation. there's no downside.
-
i know beasley only played one year but i mean, that was one hell of a year for a player, i'd get beasley up there with the best of em. also maybe think bout cartier even though he was on some shitty teams, and hell, maybe even denis for leading us to new heights in the modern era of emaw hoops.
-
Obviously Beasley.
-
Beasley.
Maybe Darren Kent. I'm kind of torn on that one.
-
Agreed. Beasley should be up there, how long do you have to be off the team to get it retired?
-
Beasley, Clemente, Cartier
Darren Kent
:confused:
-
Maybe things have changed...but i think Will Spradling has a better chance of getting his jersey up there than Beasley.

FYP. Let's not be crazy.
-
There is nothing I hate about KSU basketball more than the fact that Beasley's number is not retired. Nothing.

That is really saying something.

Honest answer: That one girl who played for the women's team? :dunno:
-
Steve Henson?
-
I would be fine with Clemente
-
I would be fine with Clemente
Yes:
Denis
Mike
Bill
Also tear down all the ones that are currently up there
-
Colon and Energy...architects of the turnaround :woot:
-
No way on Denis and Bill. They won't ever be up there nor should they. Everyone is just high on Denis because we miss him so rough ridin' much and this year sucks so bad.
Bill disappeared for as many games as he was good in.
Beasley I'm ok with. I would want to wait awhile unless they legitimately think it will help with recruiting (I'm not sure it would make a difference).

pretty irrelevant to my wanting them up there though

This is by far the worst post you've ever made.

In fact, if you want to just go ahead and delete it I'll go ahead and delete mine and I'm sure sd will do the same and we'll pretend this never happened.

Beasley, Pullen will.

trim rightfully PI'ing the crap out of elite level poster chicat in this thread. let's see how this turns out..... :dubious:
-
We should retire all of GRCOATS numbers. Even the one's who didn't come here.

a herb pope jersey in the rafters is something i can definitely get behind. right next to the shingler number 00.
-
I love Cartier. Love him. But he ain't jersey retiring worthy. Never was 1st team all conference. Didn't ever win anything ever.
Beasley ------ Hells Yeah
Bill ------------ I'm gonna say no
Denis --------- Yes
-
most kstateos have all the wrong reasons for wanting a jersey in the rafters :dubious:
-
I knew I wouldnt make any friends with that one.
I love love love Denis and miss the crap out of him. But being the main player (wouldve been very debatable if not for this year) behind one tourny appearance and elite 8 run is not enough to get in the rafters. If we want to be a second tier school that makes the elite 8 once every 20 years, then eff it, raise it up. I like to pretend we're better than that :dunno:

Spoken like a guy who wasn't part of an elite group of EMAWs celebrating the crap out of a Q@ win in the middle of the Orleans Casino while draped in the Puerto Rican flag just as Denis and the boys (who would go on to have a great night as instructed) walked by.

I know. It'd have been just fine for the world to ban sports forever immediately after that.

Steve Henson in a lock. Askia Jones will probably make it as will Michael Beasley. Others who may have a chance:
Curtis Redding
Ed Nealy
Norris Coleman (The Sarge)
Cartier Martin
Steve Mitchell
Jeremiah Massey
Denis Clemente

have never heard of or care about curtis, ed, norris, steve....love massey more than most but he shouldn't be there...could get behind ski....don't want any hensons.

Pullen and Beasley. You should at least be first team all conference and sniff all american.
And Beasley shouldn't even require thought. He was nearly player of the year and should be up there already.

For most white shirt tucks who have never left sparsely populated areas of Kansas, yes.
For me, no.
I don't think he should have his number retired.

who the eff is steve henson. convince me by posting why I should care about this guy. :dubious:

Not worth your time to review.

OJ Mayo did more for K-State basketball than Steve Henson ever did.

pffft, this board had some people who hated Denis up until half-way thru his senior year...

Pullen and Beasley, until eventually the tucks get there way and get Sprads up there.

Not sure why all the Henson Hate going on. Let's see now:
- The only player in school history to play in four NCAA Tournaments.
- Broke 21 school records.
- Among K-State's top ten players in 41 statistical categories.
- Still owns school records for career free throw percentage (90%), assists (582), and steals (190).
- Was record holder for career 3-pointers until this season when Jacob Pullen broke it.
- Scored 41 points in a game vs Iowa State.
- Hit 92.5% of this free throws in 1988 (111/120).
- Hit 48 free throws in a row at one point.
- Also spent three years on K-State's track & field team as a decathlete.
- Was a key player when I first started following the Cats.
OK, now you guys list reasons you hate him. Here, let me help:
1. He's white.
2. Shirt-tucks love him.
I would refute those two arguments by pointing out that neither of those things are his fault.

Any recipient that hasn't made an All-American team does not deserve to be up there.
We need to have some level of standards for God's sake.

Lon Kruger was not an All-American. That is unless you count him being an Academic All-American.

Steve Henson = La Flama Blanca's illegitimate father. That alone makes him All Amurrikan.

just did a google search of this henson guy nobody has heard of. oh my :lol:

Did I say that I thought Lon Kruger should be up there?
-
Kruger was 2 time Big 8 POY, no idea how he wasn't AA with that.
-
whats the chances of Jason Bennett making it up there?

This is true. You can almost make an exception of him as well because of the short run of success he had here as a basketball coach.
Kind of an EMAW lifetime achievement award.
However, I maintain, and have always maintained, that you need to have a defined set of criteria for inclusion so it's objective and not subjective.
Kind of like North Carolina: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Carolina_Basketball#Honored_and_retired_jerseys (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Carolina_Basketball#Honored_and_retired_jerseys)
Based on their criteria, Kruger would warrant inclusion. My list might be more inclusive than theirs, but I still think it needs to be defined.
-
I have no problem with anyone that is already up there, but they need to get Beasley up there ASAP.

curtis kelly should get his jersey in the rafters on senior day

Sounds like maybe this guy should have gotten his jersey retired back when he held records that matter. Nobody cares about free throws. I won a Knights of Columbus free throw shooting competition once, and I don't have any jerseys retired.
-
Was he ever an All-American?
Was Darren Kent?

marcus zigler should be up there for consideration
