Let's hear your K-State version of Ain't No Seats.  Can be any sport.  I don't have one so I'll steal blowthewhisle's from another thread.


Deon Murphy once showed up during the 10th week of Geology lab (his first appearance) only to be astounded that he had been dropped from the class. A true  :kstatriot:

When you have tutors who needs class.... Just sayin if the average college student can manage between a 2.0 and 3.0 goin to class say 50-75% of the time. Then why couldnt an athelete with a tutor and mandatory study time go less and still succeed?

plus lets face it as fans who cares if they go to class if they burn people like Sproles did..

Justin Montgomey was in my Geo101 lab in '03. Generally it's a freshman only class. Not for Justin though.

He was in my small group lab. He came in one time 20 minutes late. He sat down next to me, pulled out a magazine and did not look up once the entire class. Me and the other 2 did the work on an in-class project, and when I got up to turn it in at the end of class, Justin looked up from the magazine at me and goes, "Is my name on that?" I of course said yes. I was taking one for the team.

I knew him in college too.  He was kind of meat-heady but was actually pretty cool if you can get past the barbed wire tattoo.  His parents' house in Smith Center burned down.

Joe-Bob was in ENG345 Modern Poetry with me and the instructor didn't know that he was an athlete... he called his name 1st day of class "Joe *pause and look down at the list* Clements". Joe-Bob proceeded to play with the strings on the blinds, play with his watch and sleep the entire semester away - only to get a rough ridin' B in the class - conversely, I got a 70% and I rejoiced... it was a tough class.

Spring semester 1994. Appreciation of Theatre.  Chad May and some skank sitting next to him stand up about 20 minutes into class, walk down the aisle and head out. The prof asks... "Uhh...where are you going?"  Chad, without turning around or looking at the prof just says... "I'm hungry!" and he and his skank were gone for the day.

Took calc over the summer and freems and mastrud were in the class. Freems showed up the first day wearing a wife beater and athletic shorts  :love:, this was in the middle of the "Freemans up to 260, no one will be able to tackle him" days. Saw him maybe 3 more times that summer even though class was everyday, no idea on the grade.

Fall Semester, MWF 8:05, College Algebra, Mike Beasley would come in, with his little Asian educational peon right behind him, promptly sit down and put his head on his desk.  Asian took all the notes and everything.  I probably skipped 20-35% of that class but Mikey was always there.

I was a TA for a couple of semesters and I had two athletes in my lab classes during that time.  Both were girls (basketball and volleyball) and both were very smart (though the girl from Tennessee sounded like a hillbilly).  Meanwhile, I also had a dude that I saw running for office recently - I think he was the only one that actually failed my class.

Don't even remember what class it was, but it was a big "non-ag" class and it was over in the ag buildings across from moore, but I had Joe-Bob in that class. Every day about halfway through the class the instructor would give him a few coins and he'd head out and put them in the parking meter for the instructor.  Pretty sure he was there every day.

Let Michael Bishop borrow my criminal justice notes once.  Was instantly embarrassed about the lame doodles I made in the margins, but he just laughed.

Fall 2002. Ell and I think it was Danny Morris always came late to Mass Comm. usually walking right in front of the class and letting the doors slam behind them. For whatever reason they tried to sneak in early the Monday after destroying Nebraska only to have the prof. start off a standing ovation for them in the lecture hall. Surprisingly a lot of people never even knew who they were or that they were in the class judging by the reactions.

Fall 2009 I think.

Sociology class of some kind. We're taking an in class quiz after a lecture.

I look to my left, and some big ol' Hayseed of a football player (A genuine cracker) is just staring at my quiz answers, doesn't even flinch as I look over at him. Then I look to my right, and Ulla Pomele looks me in the eyes and says "Hey, can I see that?"

I push my quiz over to him, and the Hayseed and Pomele look it over, fill their out, and hand it back.

Had a soch class with a bumch of athletes. One of which was Curtis Kelly. He only came once every few weeks, but when he did, he was very enthusiastic during class lectures.  I remember one in particular where Curt stated that 'if he saw a bag of groceries lying on the street, then yeah, he would take the bag of groceries', and in the real world, the earth is the bag of groceries, and all humans are him.

Keithen Valentine was also in the class and took more notes than anyone I've ever seen.  :ck:

DT was in my "Israeli-Palestinian Conflict" class (Hist 597 I think) last summer.  He came the first two days and then dropped.  I don't blame him.  Attendence was mandatory, the lectures were dreadfully dull, and each class was 2 and a half hours.  The only reason I survived was due to intense bbs'ing.

They came every day, but Jamar always fell asleep the second he got there (pretty funny since it was in McCain and those chairs are tiny)

Once I asked Jamar how workouts were. Was pretty  :ohno: about talking to him because I was a scared freshman and he was a big bad athlete.

He was pretty nice about it and chatted with me for a few minutes.  :love:

Dylan Meier was in my Business, Government, & Society class spring semester of his senior year.  He lost his starting position to Josh Freeman in the fall.  First day of class Prof. Bloodgood took roll:

Dr. Bloodgood:  [everybody in class but Dylan's name]

Everybody in class but Dylan:  Here

Dr. Bloodgood:  Is there anyone whose name I didn't call?

Dylan: *raises hand*

Dr. Bloodgood:  what's your name?

Whole class:  *holds breath/quiet gasp*

Dylan:  Dylan Meier

Dr. Bloodgood:  who?

Dylan:  DYLAN MEIER

Dr. Bloodgood:  how do you spell your last name?


It was really awkward being in the classroom.  There was only about 35 students in there.  Dylan was unmistakable (to everyone but Dr. Bloodgood) with his long hair.  Was really sad to see him fall so far so quick...

Had some football players in my Human Development class.  I'm not sure who it was because I always sat in the back and they were always in the front row.  The prof was that gal that was pretty fun, but then she got cancer, but then she kicked cancer's ass and came back.  Anyway, those fball players always contributed and made the whole lecture hall laugh.  Actually I think Aaron Lockett was in there, talking about sex and such.  It was fun.

Some riley rat got up to call out all the "trust fund babies" in my sociology class once because he was pissed that he wasn't all :kstategrad: and Nino Williams yelled out "crap JUST REAL!"

This one is my favorite so far. Well, that and anything involving Chad May.

Dylan Meier was in my Business, Government, & Society class spring semester of his senior year.  He lost his starting position to Josh Freeman in the fall.  First day of class Prof. Bloodgood took roll:

Dr. Bloodgood:  [everybody in class but Dylan's name]

Everybody in class but Dylan:  Here

Dr. Bloodgood:  Is there anyone whose name I didn't call?

Dylan: *raises hand*

Dr. Bloodgood:  what's your name?

Whole class:  *holds breath/quiet gasp*

Dylan:  Dylan Meier

Dr. Bloodgood:  who?

Dylan:  DYLAN MEIER

Dr. Bloodgood:  how do you spell your last name?


It was really awkward being in the classroom.  There was only about 35 students in there.  Dylan was unmistakable (to everyone but Dr. Bloodgood) with his long hair.  Was really sad to see him fall so far so quick...

 :lol:

OK, new favorite.

Watched the entire starting 5 from the K-State basketball literally climb over each others shoulders to copy a test, while the rest of the large lecture hall got up to turn theirs in, thus creating a big enough wall of humanity to allow multiple tall to extremely tall african-american males to have a conversation as to what to put on the test at normal voice levels whilst leaning over each others shoulders.

Andrew Shull was in my calc recitation. He was pretty much always there. I think he dominated everyone in calculus

Monty Beisel and Quincy Morgan were in my Intro to Mass Com class. Monty always sported the golf/visor hat with bleached hair.

On an unrelated note, I once purchased an "athletic supporter" from Terence Newman at Foot Locker when he was 16 and very skinny.

Had Monty, some coach assist named Tyson, and some baseball player in comp II.  Tyson was gone most of the second half of the semester, but baseball guy and Monty were there pretty much all the time.

Justin Montgomey was in my Geo101 lab in '03. Generally it's a freshman only class. Not for Justin though.

He was in my small group lab. He came in one time 20 minutes late. He sat down next to me, pulled out a magazine and did not look up once the entire class. Me and the other 2 did the work on an in-class project, and when I got up to turn it in at the end of class, Justin looked up from the magazine at me and goes, "Is my name on that?" I of course said yes. I was taking one for the team.


 :lynchmob:

Are you sure it wasn't '01 bro, its getting to be a long time ago, but I could have swore Justin Montgomery (if it wasn't Justin Montgomery it was some other large white NW KS O-lineman) was in the Geo lab I taught that year, fall semester.  Him and Rashad Washington (I think).  Rashad (who went by another first name on the FB team) was by far the better student.  Neither talked much, but both were normally there.  I know we went to Top of the World for a field trip and Justin wore flip flop/sandles and complained how cold it was and was tripping all over.  He also was not there for the final...talk about taking one for the team.  I knew he had to pass the class to go to the bowl game (I think players need to pass 6 credits go play or something) and he wasn't there, I asked RW if he knew where Justin was just before I handed out the final and he had no idea.  I told him to tell Justin to get in touch with me that day or fail the class.  So, I was in my office that evening and Justin comes bareling up the stairs panting freaking out begging to take the test.  So I let him, I even did a little review before I handed the test over and intentionally left the notes on the black board.  I think he ended up with a C...

I had David Allen Spring '01 he was a prick.  Never came, had to deal with the athletic department all the time...I know he was "done" with school since he was always gone for camps...but he was the suck.

Oh yeah just read in another thread that someone mentioned Josh Buhl and it reminded me that, it wasn't Rashad Washington with Justin Montgomery, it was Josh Buhl, so replace Josh with Justin in that story...I did have Rashad Washington though too, that would have been Spring '02.  He asked questions and I never had problems with him.  Very polite.

No athletes in this story, but still funny.

Friend of mine in EP2 said the guy that checks for players attendance for the athletic dept was running late one day, walked into his recitation and said

Athletic Dept Guy: "Excuse me, what class is this?"

Teacher: "Engineering Physics 2"

Athletic Dept Guy: "lol nvm" and walked away

Spring semester 1994. Appreciation of Theatre.  Chad May and some skank sitting next to him stand up about 20 minutes into class, walk down the aisle and head out. The prof asks... "Uhh...where are you going?"  Chad, without turning around or looking at the prof just says... "I'm hungry!" and he and his skank were gone for the day.

Forgot one detail.  Deryl Cunningham was also in the class and never missed a day that I am aware of.

I had my first class at K-State  Expos writing (forgot about this until just now) with Gabe Crews.

He never missed a class to my knowledge, but I always ended up revising his papers for him. The man was absolutely the worst writer I have ever seen. I mean, I'm not sure he could even read. I didn't want to piss him off with my literary criticisms so I wrote "good" on all the papers I looked over for him. I'm sure the teacher did the same. No way he would pass a Junior High class if he wasn't an athlete.

Later had him in a Sociology class a year or two later. The teacher told him numerous times to show up on time, but he ALWAYS came in 10-15 minutes late with a bag of chips and a soda. He would just rip them chips open and start nomming down.  The teacher kept holding him after class to discuss his tardiness and chips I assume.

I was saving this because I didn't want to admit that I took women studies, but whatever... I was misled by an advisor. BFD.  My teacher was Ms. Burmeister & a few other guys in the class coined the monikor furmaster... was kind of funny I guess...  Total man-hater.

But anyway, Buhl, I think.... don't remember if it was him or not...   was apparently in another class of hers and one day she was returing graded work assignments and a paper I had wrote, mistakenly had his paper clipped along with mine.  I don't remember the topic, but it was something along the lines of: how an "ideal" woman should fit in today's society.   Where the obvious discussion should have been avoiding barefoot, pregnant & in the kitchen, Mr. Buhl listed attributes of his ideal mate and went as far as listing bra & waist size.   Some other favorable qualities entailed that she be white as well as having a sense of humor, etc. etc.   Basic grammar & spelling along the lines of a grade school-er - probably 5th grade level or so.

I do recall that the grade he received was a "D"  I wish like hell I still had this paper; would be rough ridin' hilarious to read again, but I thought I would be doing the football team a service by destroying it.

Surprised you mouth breathing hayseeds don't know about the actual story behind Ain't No Seats, considering your unhealthy obsession with all things KU athletics.  As legend has it, Sherron Collins showed up a few minutes late to one of his final exams, only to find out that the only seats left were located in rows at the front of the classroom.  In order to prevent cheating, the teacher made all of the students spread out and keep an empty seat between them as they took the test.  In a blatant act of defiance, Sherron went over to where the other athletes were sitting and sat in one of the empty seats next to them.  After that, Ain't No Seats was born.

Also, at the University of Kansas (an official AAU member international research institution), athletes are required to attend class.  As a KU alum who had multiple classes with athletes, I can tell you that there are academic supervisors who stand outside of the classroom every day and take attendance specifically for each athlete in that class.  If someone misses class, it's an automatic in-house punishment or suspension.  I had Darrell Stuckey, Kerry Meier, and several others in my Finance 305 class at Summerfield, and those guys were always in class.  Not sure how they do it at Little Ag School on the Prairie, but KU actually has integrity when it comes to things like that.

no there aren't



Yes there are, you fat-faced hayseed clown.  An academic supervisor stood outside the classroom at Summerfield every day before my Finance 305 class and took attendance of every athlete in that class.  

You act like they don't do that everywhere.


It sounds like they don't do that at Butthurt State.

Every class I've ever taken with an athlete has had someone outside taking attendance.

I've never taken a non-remedial with an athlete so you're probably right.

You're a rough ridin' idiot.  My sister (former KU athlete) took notes and quizzes and exams for KU basketball players (Darnell Jackson, Chalmers, and one other).  You know that guy in the wheelchair that's responsible for keeping them eligible?  His name is "Scooter."  And through no fault of his own (I personally believe him to be a genuinely nice and moral person), he's forced to cheat on behalf of KU basketball.  He goes through a LOT to keep them eligible.  Everything from making sure the smart non-men's-basketball athletes are on board to help him cheat, to personally driving to bball player's residences and laying on the horn to get them out of bed to go to class. 

Furthermore, my sister got in trouble once for showing up to a chowder puff class.  Her coach told her not to go the first day, and she thought "well that can't be right," so she went, and then she got in trouble for going.  The idea being that now everyone in the class knew an athlete was in the class and might get suspicious if she was always gone.  The prof was in the AD's pocket just to write in A's.

I was simply going to LOL at the "in house punishment" line, but this is much more hilarious.  Especially the "scooter" part.  I mean, have a guy that cheats for you.  Have the guy be handicapped.  All fine and good, but to call some poor bastard in a wheel chair, that you are just using, a nickname like "scooter" is really funny.

at k-state there were guys in the AD who would check in on athletes and their teachers to ensure the athlete's compliance with the attendance rules that the coach had.  they would pop into classes from time to time and check to see that the guys were in the room.

i'm guessing this didn't happen in Sorghum 450 and Macro-Tractorology 302 though, so a lot of you seeds might not be aware of this.

I've got an accounting class with Robert Rose who makes it more than I do. He takes good notes too. Also stares at the ass of our very attractive teacher non stop with his friends, often high fiving and nodding.

Last year had a class with Payton Kirk, which was funny because we were in the same group and I never knew he was a football player (only knew him as payton). He never wore typical athlete attire, also is the nicest softest most polite dude in the world. Didn't know till he said he was missing a presentation cuz he had a game (nebraska). Also there's no way he's 6'5" 265 or w/e they list him at.

Freshman year I had english comp with bill walker but he rarely showed up. When he did it was always with a girl or two that weren't in the class.

Sounds like a Disney movie where the big quiet kid (never went out for football) who sits in the back of the room roughs up said players in the hall after class and demands they respect Ms. Larson (while the varsity coach played by a slimmed Matt LeBlanc can't help but notice the kids obvious strength, later convinces him to tryout for the team).

Last spring Chris Harper (likely on his way to class) would always point and wink at Javonta Boyd, who usually sat behind me, so it kind of looked like CHarp was winking at me.  At least that is what I dreamt about.

That is a story that PW can appreciate.

I had P Chem with Darrell Arthur.  His attendance was just pretty ok.  Not great.

Darrell Arthur did not take p chem.

Lies.

physical chemistry? there are pre-reqs for that class.

Strange. and lol@ baby tears being a chemistry major.

Ask SD.  He knows the truth about me.  I'll chemistry your ass right under the table.  You better believe!!

Question: Which of the following is a non-electrolyte

a)ch3ooh
b)ch3nh2
c)nh3

rn't they all weak electrolytes?:
Title: Re: Athletes are so bad at going to class thread
Post by: babytears on September 13, 2011, 08:00:18 PM
a- carboxylic acid, don't think that would be
b- amine, yes
d- ammonia, yes weak

oops.  Read that as 'which are electrolytes?'

really? physics is much more difficult imo.

babytears, the question was which was a non-electrolyte. frustrating because all of those would disassociate in water.


something like glucose is a non=electroyte

Only if the grade is on it.


One of my major regrets of college is not having classes with athletes and therefore not having the oppo to help them cheat.  Bummer.

I had countless student-athletes in my coures during my time teaching at KSU.  I can say without hesitation, that DEON MURPHY was the only one that ever worked my nerves.   What an obnoxious jack-wagon.

Deon Murphy is a dick, the spring when he was kicked off the team, he was running some routes with some guys at Old Stadium, when we asked him to move over because our sport club had practice there.  He was all like  :chainsaw: and we were like  :comeatme: but it never got to be more than some yelling and shoving.

Haha, Deon!

Once showered with him at the rec.  I asked if I could borrow some body wash and he was all  :comeatme:.  So when he wasn't looking I grabbed it and tossed it to my buddy and he was shaving.  He came after us with half a face of shaving cream.  High-larious.  We filled our pooftas and gave it back and he was cool then.

Had Expos 1 with Justin McKinney.  We had to exchange rough drafts of papers and give each other editing tips etc.  He took one look at my paper and said "it's good I guess" and was kinda  :dunno:.  His paper was maybe 1 paragraph of random sentences that made no sense at all.  I looked at it and said, "you might want to make it a little longer"  and he just shrugged.

Had natural disasters with Cartier Martin, he came the first day and on any day when the AD attendance takers were there.  When he was there he would just sit in the back and play video games on his phone.  And now he plays in the NBA.

Had Monty Beisel in Mass Comm, he was rarely there, and when he was, he sat in the back surrounded by very hot ladies.

Had Terence Newman in Sociology his freshman year. Didn't see him much, and when he was there, you knew it because he was always chatting it up/kissing ass/brownnosing with the teacher after class. Funny thing is, he was so skinny that most people didn't know he was a football player until the end of the semester.

Had many classes with Andrew Shull. Smart guy that was always in class, just didn't care to work very hard. Loved hearing him bitch and moan in class about how hard Sproles was to tackle.
