When are they putting Q-Morg, Darren and Jordy up there? Will this be part of the opening of WSC?

quincy is a bit of an outlier there pc96

I'd like to see Darren and Jordy go in together, but that's just me.
Then Collin and Arthur later. :gocho:

I don't think Arthur is eligible (along with Bishop, Morgan, etc.) because of their weird rules.

Love that a program built on jucos makes up rules that keep jucos out of their hall of fame thing. Just love it.

it's sean snyder's fault really
-
i don't think the rules keep jucos out, nor would they keep arthur out. sean was a transfer as well, you know? i do think they make it harder for jucos though and i do think that it's entirely possible that the rules were made up by sean to ensure that he was one of the few to be allowed in.

i don't think the rules keep jucos out. i do think that it's entirely possible that the rules were made up by sean to ensure that he was one of the few to be allowed in.
everyone always said that it was 4 year players that were 1st team AAs. Is that not correct?

that's not correct. i think you just have to have graduated and have been a 1st team AA. sean was a transfer.

Well, I don't even think Darren is technically eligible either, but he'll get in.
Arthur, if he ends up being an All-American, has to go up there. He's a Kansan. There's no way they'd leave out a kid from Wichita if he remotely qualified.

that's why he holds the punting yardage record. garcia has already beaten his punt average career record, but we don't see him in the ring of honor. wonder why?

also, and i know this for a fact...kstate used to heat up footballs in a microwave type thing on their sideline during cold games and then insert those balls into the game right before snyder had to punt. they did not offer this to opposing teams. fact.

Granted, this is the NFL, but probably safe to say that NCAA kickers used doctored balls too.

that's a pretty neat article but it's also pretty different from what kstate was doing at the time.
kstate would supply ball boys for home games and they would all wear bright green big8 t-shirts. the ball boys were all townie highschool fball players. during a very specific and very cold iowa state night game that was on espn and had snow and sleet, etc. one of the ball boys was given a very specific task to put a ball in a heater type thing and then insert it into the game only when kstate had to punt. the espn sideline guy even asked and questioned the townie kid about what he was doing but he no commented the guy. they didn't offer this to iowa state and i'm reasonably sure that this wasn't common at all during that time frame. funny though and i loved bill for it.

Criteria should be: All time best players, who had biggest impact on KSU Football.

yeah, we know. unfortunately the criteria made was:
How can we get Sean up there while keeping most people from being up there?
-
freemaw better be put up there before any other loser mentioned in this thread

yeah daddy claxton. that was clearly the only other alternative. :facepalm:
-
Definitely not saying there weren't dozens of ways to do it. I'm saying the criteria is whatever Bill says it is.
-
So what is keeping Bish out, again?
-
freemaw better be put up there before any other loser mentioned in this thread
Wrong.
-
So what is keeping Bish out, again?
Bishop was 1st Team All-American according to Sporting News and Football News publications. Perhaps it has to be a specific organization like Football Writers Association or something similar.....
edit to say he fumbled.

does bishop have a ksu degree? i think that's one of the criteria. not 100% sure, but that's what i think keeps out people that any normal person would say should be in. will/might keep out freemaw?

The Ring of Honor is designed to recognize those in the football program who have distinguished themselves on and off the field. Among the criteria considered is graduation from Kansas State with a student-athlete having been out of school for at least five years, quality of character, whether the person is an excellent representative of K-State and whether a person has achieved performance that warrents consensus All-America level status at Kansas State University.

Bishop hold up is he has not Graduated for K-State

I'm pretty sure Bishop graduated, actually.

TNew must have gone up there the second he was eligible. They need to get Darren and Jordy up there.
-
So, we need to give Bish an honorary degree on Friday night, then a place in the Ring Sat morning at halftime.

I know for a fact he did not walk or graduate in the class of 98. Could have come back and got his degree after the fact however.

They wait till they have a group to do at once. Of the players not up there yet that I think are eligible I think Jordy and Darren are the only ones left off.

Jordy just graduated 4 years ago

There should be an exception to all the RULEZ that if you are a national award winner and heisman finalist, no other criteria is required...clearly you have done something right.
Others that should be considered:
1. Sproles duh
2. Jeff Kelly
3. Andre Coleman
4. Chris Canty
I'm sure there are some others I forgot about. And I'm sure one or more of the four I mentioned have eligibility issues, but they are all more than adorable enough to be up there.
-
After doing some checking Bishop my now finally have his K-State degree. So Bishiop should be going up in the next class along with Jordy and Darren.
Bishop now lives in his hometown of Willis, Texas, where he is coaching at nearby The Woodlands Christian Academy, plus he is finishing his final three-hour course in philosophy that will complete his K-State degree.
"It's taken too many years (for his degree), but I was busy trying to make a living playing football," said Bishop. "I'm proud that I'm going to finish."

the fact that while at new england bishop taught tom brady everything he knows, often goes overlooked. the reality is brady was riding the pine behind bishop while bishop tutored his apprentice (brady). bishop, realizing he could make more money in the canadian league (no taxes, etc), stepped aside and made it possible for brady to become a serviceable nfl journeyman.
-
I'm just speculated here, but I bet Bish got his degree a few years ago by utilizing our fantastic Second Wind program of continuing education at Kansas State University. The Ring of Honor requirements state a student-athlete must be 5 years removed from graduating.
Let's say he finally stopped playing for the Canadian Geese Argonauts in 2005, went back to Texas and dicked around for awhile, and finally Bishop decided to complete his degree by using the Second Wind Program in 2006. It'll take him a year to finish say May 2008. According to my calculations: Bishop should be scheduled to enter the Ring of Honor during the 2013 KSU Football season.

Just waiting on Bishop. What a fantastic human being.
Not many 'Cats (not named Arthur Brown) have put their mark on a team the way ol' #7 did.

Seriously, could we come up with some ideas for this besides the traditional....ribbon boards are coming too as stated.

True story
Also the defensive side...Darren Howard, Damien McIntosh, etc.
-
Terry Pierce would definitely need to make it if he stayed for his senior year. I still think he merits getting in.

it's pretty disgusting that our own university treats our athletes worse than the heisman voters did

Bish is probably the most unselfish person you'll ever know.

Four real (consensus) All-Americans are not on the Ring:
Chris Canty (x2 + unanimous AA)
Jeff Kelly
Bish
Jordy
Also, four guys who were not consensus AAs are already on the Ring.
-
Concensus All-Americans I tracked down...
1992 Some punter guy
1995-96 *Chris Canty (not sure why the * in '96)
1997 Automatica
1998 Bishop, Allen, Kelly
1999 Marky mark...what happened to his kstatehd.tv career?
2002 Newman
2007 Jordy
2012 Predator, Judge, Junior, whatev
Also, I realize there are a few from pre '88 but I'm not doing the research
-
2012 Predator, The Judge, Junior, whatev
-
tim colston should get in imo as well. such an underrated wild wild cat & he still lives in manhattan :soblessed:
-
Also, I realize there are a few from pre '88 but I'm not doing the research
The only one from before 1988 is Collin Klein's father-in-law.

1st team AA or get the hell out. That being said, we should get every 1st team AA up there so we look really damn elite.

What's your criteria then? Those guys are All Americans, K-State grads, NFL players...more deserving than some that are up there already (certainly Sean). Not saying they SHOULD be up there, but they should be considered if we're going to start throwing out names, and his point about o-linemen was valid.

If an O lineman is up there, they should have been dominant, like Orlando Pace dominant. Like Outland Trophy winning dominant. Sean Snyder being up there should have no bearing on who follows.

It's sad that Kevin Lockett can't be considered. Not only is he our #1 receiver of all time, with him coming to K-State and playing so well we were blessed with Aaron and now Baby Lockett.

Lockett can be considered. We already have 4 non-consensus-AAs on the wall: Lynn Dickey, Steve Grogan, Veryl Switzer and Mr. Essence Atkins (Jamie Mendez).
Meanwhile, KSU's only two-time consensus-AA, and unanimous All-American, Chris Canty isn't up there. Maybe he hasn't graduated. Or maybe it's because he got a DUI and had to surrender his Thorpe award, and was hung over (dehydrated) at the Cotton Bowl against BYU. Dunno.

bishop is/was the most important player in school history, for eff's sake. his name should have been up there the day after he left school.

this is really the point..........the rules are not clear....or at least not to the public......do we have a super spy who can get an offical athletic department statement on this ?

He came from a historical all black town in western Kansas (Nicodemus). It barely exists at this point, but even with its small size was home to many great athletes alongside Veryl, although I can't think of anyone that did more in the pro athletic realm.

I just spent the better part of my lunch break reading about Nicodemus, KS. I'd never even heard about it or knew that it existed. Thanks for sharing.

I fell down the Nicodemus rabbit hole over the weekend, myself. Fascinating stuff.

Great write up from D Scott. Includes some brief history of Nicodemus.

The move at 1:36 is my favorite. In space 1v1 with the USC defender and just depants him with one cut.

I think I’m most excited about having Ell Roberson inducted into the ring of honor. I think it sucks the way Snyder treated him at the end. I hope they buried the hatchet.

Damn HugeCat, I spent quite a while listening to this video. Also, TY for posting this delightful presentation as I really enjoyed it. :cheers:

They messed up the font for the new guys. It’s too thin. I doesn’t look right with the other lettering on the WSC. I hope they realize it looks terrible & redo it.

Da nada, catpappy. Jordy looks different with his hair grown out.

Saw this in another thread but thought it would be fun to add here. Who goes to the Ring of Honor from the current team?
1. Deuce
2. King Felix
3. Beebe??
4. Possibly QB18 (depending on results next season).
-
Beebe will need to do some work to get in there, there's quite a queue of offensive lineman before him.
-
Rekindling this discussion from one year ago. Beebe seems to have garnered some pretty good accolades. NGL, I felt at times this season that if we truly had an elite Kansas Beef Line, we should be able to churn out 3 - 5 yd runs at will which was not always the case. Anyway, great recognition for #50 regardless of if he makes the RoH.

I think you have to have been out of the program for 5 years before you can be put in the ROH. If he doesn't get in when he's eligible, we riot.

We needed that spot to put KU Assistant Sean Snyder up there

Didn’t Bebe like not give up a sack the whole season or something like that? It’s usually hard to tell from the eye test whether one guy is doing a great job but I thought just statistically Bebe was off the charts.

According to Pro Football Focus, Beebe has allowed only five sacks among his 1,450 career pass blocking snaps with four of those coming in his redshirt freshman season of 2020, and he has surrendered only one sack in his last 41 games.

That seems really good!

I'm not sure in which game he surrendered a sack, but I'm pretty sure it was this year. The only site that seems to track this info is pff.com (Pro Football Focus) but it's hidden behind a paywall for 'premium stats'.
