So, $35 off the face value is basically free right? It's be much more convenient for me if they just had a big stack of them on a table at Bob's Diner or something.

It would be a whole lot better if you duct taped a pillow to your gut and tucked in an XXL K-State Polo tucked into your Levi jeans. Then when Henderson starts his antics, slowly stand up and shake your head at him.

Have you tried setting up a DENISE ICE email account and seeing if you can get those tickets?

will we begin to announce attendance by tickets sold instead of actual attendance?
over/under on the attendance tonight?

whatever the attendance is, it would have been about a thousand lower if iowa state was an away game.

Pretty sad commentary on local K-State "fans"

I forgot we even had a game tonight until I saw this thread get bumped.

Also, I got a phone call from someone in the ticket office the other day, a real live person, trying to get me to buy basketball ticket packages. I told her I was busy eating lunch, and asked her to call back another time. I didn't feel like being mean to her....it's not her fault her boss hired oscar.

Nope. Been in the office like 2 min today. Where is that and what is that?

OK, just found/watched the PanJakes vid.
Really mixed emotions. I mean, it was sad and depressing that such awesomeness was like yesterday. Then it was funny when Will's highlight was a three pointer and a close up of him calling to be pulled out.

Was looking forward to it, but now leaning towards a no go. Been a crazy week and that 3.5hr round trip sounds a lot like pulling out fingernails right now.
Would actually really like to see the game live, but that damn drive :shakesfist:

Does this include tickets found in trashcans?
-
If I'm wrong on this, I'll admit to being wrong.
I know this sounds kind of nutty given the fact that the old regime did very little if anything of significance to fill empty seats.
If K-State has sold about 12,000 season tickets than that leaves about 6-800 unsold seats per game. This is better than waiting around hoping for that many walk-ups because there probably isn't going to be that many walk-ups for a lot of those games.
Folks, nothing builds a resume for an AD like sold out sports venues.
You gotta think a little here.
-
Currie will effect the sales as much as possible and more than a normal AD. oscar is his only hire so far and if Currie wants out, he has to have someone to point to as a successful hire. Otherwise, he has to wait until Bill gives up, and Currie doesn't have what it takes to win that battle and come out well thought of.
-
If K-State has sold about 12,000 season tickets
My daily emails/texts/calls from K-State indicate they haven't.

So, those emails say how many season tickets have been sold? Interesting if so.
-
Trim, one day soon you are going to say "yes" then they are going to mush your face and let you know that they never had any tickets since all have been sold out and that they have been baiting you as revenge for that hurtful survey.
They may go as far as putting you on hold once you say yes only to have Currie pick up the phone and do the mushing.

That makes a lot more sense than that they haven't sold out their 12,000 season tickets. Thanks CNS. Sometimes I wish Dax was more straightforward and would cut to the chase.
-
while none of us really know, i think most logical people would pick the under on the whole 12k thing. pretty ridiculous to think they're that high or to even suggest it as a possibility. they aren't.
-
Maybe Cap'n Crap could settle this whole 12k debate.
-
I have a feeling that the athletic dept sold itself a whole bunch of Victory Ticket Plan seats in 24 and 25 at the $99 rate.

He'd say fOOD is sold out, we'd lol, debate would rage on.

you're right dax. nobody should ever speculate on anything, but if we do we should always error on the side that says everything is great.
-
they probably count every single ICat and GA combo pass they sold, then the "Victory Ticket Plan". There is no way (in my opinion) there were that many sold for basketball but ICat and GA Combo passes sold out and that = close to 7k tickets.
-
Where did I say everything is great?
Just because you have a perpetual level of massive butthurt because your no recruiting hero up and bailed on K-State because he wasn't going to be able to mentally handle the downward trajectory that he created . . . and that Currie didn't subsequently hire somebody off of Bleacher Reports list of "up and coming" mid major coaches (while you and others fap it over a list of guys who are never, ever going to be walking the K-State sidelines) doesn't mean you (and others) have to spew forth nothing but pure hate 24/7/365 on this board, and I'm about as far away as you can get from being a Tuck.
-
The list of ppl that will never walk our sideline should be the short list in Currie's pocket in case oscar or Bill die today.
If it isn't, then it should be torn up and thrown away.
Self limitations are the worst.

you didn't. but there also weren't "resident haters think(ing) the absolute worst" and that was my point, dork. we are people on a message board discussing what we think is going on based on the information that is available to us. that's kind of what we do around here. do think they've sold about 12K? also, what is your definition of about? 10.5? 11?

Reality says many guys on the wish list are not coming to K-State. Too many examples of fanbases thinking "they'll be lined up to coach here".
Some guys are just better at mid-majors and oscar may be one of them.
Daris, don't pull the "just people talking on a message board" card now. Ya freakin dork!
-
I definitely don't think that anyone has lined up to coach here other than Gottlieb and Undy in the recent past. That said, our AD sat in a hotel room in Dallas and seems to have made three phone calls: 1. to some buddy consultant and asked him how much money he could pass to him during this process, 2. Gene Keady(sp?). and 3. oscar.
There is a big rough ridin' gap in doing what I say should be done and doing what Currie did. It doesn't take butthurt to think so.

Yep. I will do it on the football side too if he hires Chuck Weiss to replace bill without being told no by a bunch of other coaches because Chuck won some stuff a long time ago.

Nothing more than what you or anyone else has. Just a quick timeline and no leaks what so ever about anyone else being offered the job like you often hear during other school's searches.

That said, our AD sat in a hotel room in Dallas and seems to have made three phone calls: 1. to some buddy consultant and asked him how much money he could pass to him during this process, 2. Gene Keady(sp?). and 3. oscar.
There is a big rough ridin' gap in doing what I say should be done and doing what Currie did. It doesn't take butthurt to think so.
But you're gonna be all butthurt because Currie didn't do what YOU say should have been done :jerk:
Okay
Yep. I will do it on the football side if he hires Chuck Weiss to replace bill without being told no by a bunch of other coaches because Chuck one some stuff a long time ago.
But you don't have any idea if he was told no or not by anyone.
Nothing more than what you or anyone else has. Just a quick timeline and no leaks what so ever about anyone else being offered the job like you often hear during other school's searches.
So in other words . . . nothing. Nothing but what we all in our own minds THINK what happened, or didn't happen.
-
Well, we know that a consultant got paid something like $50k, we know that gene keady was called very early in the process, we know that oscar is gene's guy, and we know that oscar was hired pretty quickly.
I mean, I feel like it is very reasonable to think that if anyone here is making poor assumptions based off of what we do know and the timing, it is ppl that think we offered a bunch of other ppl before we offered oscar.
-
Well generally speaking, where there's no smoke there's no fire.

Hey guys, I still happen to think oscar is going to coach this year's squad to a pretty good season! (Not a parody post.)

they probably count every single ICat and GA combo pass they sold, then the "Victory Ticket Plan". There is no way (in my opinion) there were that many sold for basketball but ICat and GA Combo passes sold out and that = close to 7k tickets.

I recall Currie making a joke at oscar's intro pc that was essentially "you hayseeds wouldn't let me hire Tad Boyd because he was a squawk", did that happen or have I caught the dementia?

I hope you're ready to have your mind blown by the inanity of my rationale! Three words: Past As Precedent. I tend to believe coaches -- with a significantly large enough track record --tend to continue to perform as they have in the past. That's why I thought Kruger would win quickly at OU. Of course, there comes a time when "the game passes a coach by" and winners start to fade, but Weber is too young IMO to fall into that category.
Especially with Chris Lowery on the bench, Weber has been successful. Overall, his lifetime winning percentage is .676 (.637 in conference). Assuming we play 32 games before the NIT/NCAA tournament (that number is not set) the math works out to a record of 22-10 (11-7). That's my prediction. And I'll take that record for my Khatz.
Weber won bigger than that with others' recruits, and he won bigger than that while at SIU. And we know he has lost bigger than that, too. But this seems to be his sweet spot. I look at his last four seasons at Illinois to be our future, repeated over and over, until he leaves. And I'm okay with that. He already coached us to our first title since 1980, so that adds to my level of contentment...
-
i'm all for using data to drive our expectations. but i believe players matter more than coaches. like wvu last year. huggins was still a great coach. but he had fewer talented players than normal, his talent didn't fit together well, and he had little experience. still a great coach, did not have a pretty good season.

in the case of oscar though, you can make the data support whatever side you want.
gosp used last four years and overall record to extrapolate out what he wanted/thinks.
i on the other hand, would use last five years of his conference record to support what i want/think because who cares about non-con and five is more data than four. that record is 41-49 and sucks donkey dicks.
that is what makes this so fun!
-
yes, the last thing we would want to do is use his overall record. instead, it makes way more sense to use arbitrary statistics which fit the agenda of hating oscar. agree 100% go cats.

so weird. i swear to god he said he was just using his last four years at illinois. wow. go to bed daris.
either way, i'd say it's pretty dumb to just use numbers and not allow some kind of human interpretation of those numbers. oh well time will tell. go ksuuuuu.
-
Forecasting generally involves using current trend. How many years back current trend is might be hard to determine, although I would say 3 or 4 years seems right.

ok so he said he expects oscar to repeat his last four illinois seasons over and over again at ksu cats and that he's ok w/ it. why didn't he say five? hell i don't know. maybe because it's because oscar went 5-13 in conference that year.
also, he just went .500 in conference in those last four and missed the tourney twice. oh well gosp doesn't care that much about bball i guess. that's his deal though not mine.

Look I think you realized in your second post that I used his all-time winning percentage, not just any four years, to calculate my prediction for this season. Then I looked at our schedule and thought it was doable.
Longer term, I didn't include the 07-08 season results in my career prediction because it was an outlier. (The only overall losing season in Weber's 15-year career.) But likewise, I'm not predicting Weber wins the Big 12 every year and maintains the new all-time winning percentage record at KSU, even though his most recent season -- and only season at his current school -- statistically indicates he might. Again, last year was a bit of an outlier. So I went with the four seasons right before that as fitting into his mean.
Maybe oscar will go 16-19 (5-13) every year from now on at KSU and suck taints and dongs and all those other things steve dave usually lists. But if so, it would be a major downward deviation from his pattern. (And I wouldn't be okay with that, which is why I didn't say I would be okay with that.)
Am I okay with this career at KSU? Yeah, I guess I said I would be. Maybe that makes me a crappy fan. :dunno:
27-8 (14-4), conference title, NCAA
24-11 (11-7), NCAA
21–15 (10–8), NIT Quarterfinals
20–14 (9–9), NCAA Round of 32
17–15 (6–12)
24–10 (11–7), NCAA
21–15 (10–8), NIT Quarterfinals
20–14 (9–9), NCAA Round of 32
17–15 (6–12)
I think he might actually do better than that, and that's based on big breakout years he's had (28-8, 27-8, 26-7, 24-7, 37-2). But that's more along the lines of wishful thinking. Anyway, go cats.

hey dum-dums: this isn't a "let's argue about oscar for the 16576th time" thread. this is a "let's observe how a terrible sequence of events has now led to plummeting attendance" thread. so keep your pro and anti oscar agitprop out of here
but while we're on the topic, i heard yesterday on NPR that "the plural of anecdotes isn't data." so it's clear here that a bunch of you are using anecdotes (previous season records, wins and losses) to try to predict how oscar is going to do. while in fact, the real actual data is simply that oscar is terrible. ergo, ipso facto, ksu is going to lose more than real cat fans should want them to lose. looks like a lot of not real cat fans in this thread. sad.
