Title: Looking for some help
Post by: GWatson on March 13, 2011, 10:33:19 PM
Hey there,

My name is Graham Watson and I write college basketball over at Yahoo! One of your former beat writers sent me this way because I'm looking for a way to get in touch with whoever runs the student section at basketball games (if such a person exists). I couldn't really find anything on the Internet. We're looking to do a fan video challenge between K-State and Utah State since both home courts are considered two of the best in college basketball. Also, I know Utah State fans will be traveling well. Wasn't sure about Kansas State.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Graham

You came to the right place. All things innovative and EMAW pretty much originated here. Just a lot of natural leaders here.
And we really miss JMart.

OK. Yeah this -- http://twitter.com/#!/greide -- is me. Not a dude, a female... And yes Jeff Martin told me to come over here because he didn't know much about the student section and said you all could help.

And I don't know if this constitutes proof, but there's this, too - http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/blog/the_dagger?author=Graham+Watson

If no one wants to help me, that's OK. No worries. Just thought I'd give it a try.

"runs the student section" seems a little much, but Trim has for years distributed the Big Heads, newspapers, organized the chants and attended every game even though he graduated.

This is true, but Trim is sort of the spokesperson. The Spartacus among Spartaci if you will.

A yahoo journalist who cannot use search.  It's still leaps beyond Kellis.
