We aren't even great at either sport but look at us having fun! Football was fun! Basketball is fun! Baseball will probably be fun! It's great to be at least kinda good at all the sports still!
:Woot:

:Woot:
When was our last not fun season? I guess 08 football but that even ended with coaching search.
so blessed :kstatriot:
-
It's really nice to root for a school who has competitive rebuilding years in all their sports. It's great to be us, guys :emawkid:
-
Yeah, it's like when was the last time we didn't outperform expectations? Prince football years and Jake's Sr. year for sure but that ended up being so much fun!
-
Let's all list a fun moment, I'll start:
Tyler Lockett's 90 yard TD against OU. How fun was that? :Woot:
-
"There is nothing greater on this Earth" - R.I.P Fatty
-
I thought of another fun moment:
When that old grandpa bricked a dunk last night! :lol: :Woot:
-
Jake Waters launching tight spirals all over Michigan's defense
-

09 football wasn't very fun. Neither was 10. In fact I was miserable.
But ya sd, pretty fun so far this year.

Farmageddon's were fun those years! :Woot:
-
We just demolished West Virginia at home a few weeks back. HOW FUN WAS THAT? :ksu: :Woot:
-
we really are living the dream as ksu fans. last year football was great. last year bball was great (until the very end). last year baseball was great. this year football was pretty good. this year basketball is pretty good. i mean that's five seasons in a row with baseball still coming up. wow. what other school would say that?
-
Like every alley oop this year. :love:
-
Sams high stepping at Texas Tech! FUN TOWN USA!!!!! :Woot:
-
The Cantele FG vs TCU was a fun moment. As was Foster's dunk over John Stockton's son in Wichita.
-
When Sean Snyder jumped like a mile up into the air fist pumping on that punt (was it a kickoff? can't 'member) return TD.
FUN PARTY WITH SOME BEACH BOYS TUNES AND COLD BREWS! :Woot:
-
It's been my perhaps my favorite season since ive been a ksu fan which I guess started whenever my brain achieved consciousness which i guess was like age three or four?
-
Gip wore cargo pants to media days! MORE POCKETS = MORE FUN!!!!! :Woot:
-
Guys, it's good to be us.
-
Guys, it's good to be us.
When I woke up, I went and looked in the mirror, and I saw a K-State Wildcat looking back at me. Felt good.
-
I had so much fun last night my wife made me sleep on the couch. :D
-
some fan of a loser school: I can't wait for whatever season my team is playing a sport they are good at!
me: I can't wait for this very moment because I'm a k-state fan and we're good at every single thing in the world of all time
-
i mean there is no end in sight either! baseball this year-we will rock. football next year-we will rock. bball next year-duh, rock. i mean wow!
-
sometimes I wish I could just catch my breath and not be right in the middle of a fun sports season where my alma mater is good at whatever is going on. then I just punch myself right in my stupid face for thinking something so dumb.
-
It must be completely and ridiculously amazing to be a student right now. The boos during the Asbury days were less "you're not gonna beat us" boo and more "omfg we're losing by 40 eff you Tan Tom and geez we have a fishscale powercat at midcourt" boo.
-
i mean there is no end in sight either! baseball this year-we will rock. football next year-we will rock. bball next year-duh, rock. i mean wow!
Then in between games we can just go drive up to the stadium and watch them build more stadium and improve our facilities and stuff. Then we can go log on to forbes.com or whatever and look up "Best Colleges at making piles of cash because of sports" and we'll be the first one listed.
-
The Cantele FG vs TCU was a fun moment. As was Foster's dunk over John Stockton's son in Wichita.
These two really hard
-
oh god, yes. the stadium, campus, city construction projects are amazing and weren't even mentioned. wow, us, wow.
-
We're probably not that good of an academic school, since we're so good at sports. :frown:
-
nbaf :horrorsurprise:
-

GOT YA!
WE RULE AT THAT TOO!!!!!!!!!! :Woot:
-
Something else amazing in the world happens I get excited for it, but then I think about K-State again and I'm like that amazing thing isn't all that great as K-State.
-
what is essentially an international airport with A380s almost :horrorsurprise:
-
Don't forget we're a nike school
-
oh yes, man, nike. IT'S SO EASY TO FORGET WHAT WOULD BE THE SINGLE BEST THING ABOUT ANOTHER SCHOOL BECAUSE WE ARE KSU AND EVERYTHING IS GREAT FOR US ALWAYS!
-
We have so much money, we're just like:
"Hey what should we build next?"
"I dunno, badass rowing facility just for shits and gigs?"
"Sure. We have like enough to build 100 of those if we wanna"
-
Top 50 public research university by 2025 :love:

eff yes I would and I'm 100% serious. The only thing it's missing is a Blue Ribbon trout stream.
-
We've kicked ass at the some sports for so long you start to take them for granted. Crops Judging...yeah we've won the World Championship like 9 of the last 12 years. Or maybe it was soil judging...whatevs, it was probably both.
-
Guys I like how I can watch the Olympics and be like "oh hey there's Erik I had him in class he's a great dude." :D
or you could've just went to the game last night where he and JO were sitting front row together and then rushed the court together and then stuck around for thirty minutes taking pictures and signing autographs. because you know who rushes the court after kstate bball games? olympians medalists. honest to god olympic medalists you guys. wow!
-
would you guys consider retiring with your beautiful wife to manhattan? i think i would totally do it.

We are KSU grads, you can build one on my retirement pad in the flint hills and stock it with trout every year(Assuming you pay my electric bill).
-
In a year or so, I'll come to kstate on a beautiful, Friday fall evening. Check into my hotel room at Bluemont overlooking the prettiest campus on earth and also aggieville. Just finished checking in my room gonna go grab some dinner and drinks with my Bros across the street at Aggie Station and then see where the night takes us. Go have a lovely tailgate tomorrow followed by cheering on the cats from the new club level. After game maybe head downtown for dinner at B&B, or Harry's or 4 Olives, not sure yet so many great options. :love:

Sometimes I wonder if you guys PM these things back and forth to set up good responses. Sock maybe? Telepathy?
-
Do you guys know how good we are at Rugby? I know some of you do, but we are really good, and it is just a club sport! Even things that the university doesn't really care about, but are largely funded directly by the students participating, we are really good!

09 we played for the final game of the season for the division title, 10 had UCF comeback, CCQ's Opus, CK's Texas game and we lost a meaningless bowl game in such a remarkable way even LeBron tweeted about it :Purple Koolaid:
-
i agree with steve dave and others in this thread that fun things are pretty dang fun. :D

Congrats to those living this in MHK. Don't forget those that suffered through some dark days in the Bram...live it up for us. Never got on the court once :(

Not getting on the court was your own fault. Back then, nobody cared enough about bball to stop anybody from wandering around on the court if they felt like it.

LOL true....been lucky enough to have court seats a few times since graduating so I guess I was telling a little lie that I've NEVER been on the court...just not in a rush situation.
-
Yeah, but I bet we suck at debate and turning out Rhodes/Truman scholars
-
John Currie may be the best athletic director of all time.

Since the oscar hire is actually working out better than expected, I'd have to agree.

It is truly great to be a KSU wild Wildcat! :ksu:
-
Guys, what about golf, are we any good at golf?
There's a gorgeous Swedish coed in my studio that plays golf for the Cats. Talked her into "showing me the ropes" when it warms up. Was a 4 year letterman in HS. Gonna have to dumb my game down a bit. Long story short, can confirm the adorableness extends to the women's golf team.
-

I feel ya'h limestone. I mean I love kicking ass at every sport that matters, year after year after year etc etc...but sometime I wonder if our smaller Athletic endeavor's/clubs like Soil Judging or Bass Fishing or Robotics will ever be able to compete at a high level when 90% of our attention goes to the 3maw sports.
-
It's been great
-
It's been great
I love that most of the college kids on gE seem to really appreciate how great it is to be at KSU at this very moment in time.
-
I'm curious how we rate on student happiness and engagement though. I'm worried it may not be the very highest in the entire world....wait, nope, found the numerous well researched studies and articles. we're the best at that as well.
-
Our Alumni Association is probably pretty weak and rarely do former EMAW's get together to celebrate good times.

I bet campus and the town of Manhattan rate pretty damn low though. Not a good place for small businesses or to retire to. I am just saying, there is no way we are owning at absolutely everything their is to own at
-
I met my wife at K-State. She is wonderful. Some of you have met her, and I'm sure your reaction was like "Hey, CF3's wife is pretty cool." Those of you who have not met her would like her too.
Basically all my earthly happiness is because of K-State.
-
One time in college I was going through a rough time. I went and met with my adviser and he helped me through the situation, and helped me get back on track. I doubt that kinda thing even happens at other colleges.

When people ask me what K-State is like, I tell them, "It's a university where people with sleeves, without sleeves, or without undershirts all get along together without incident. It's a real melting pot for adorableness."
-
People who think they'd be better not at K-State make these faces all day because they are miserable and regret leaving.

Pretty good dobber!
Final 4 1983, E8 2011 (lost to a full scholarship varsity side), League champs 2011, 2010, 2008, lots of other old years. Several K-State football players have played, including Moses Manu (playing professionally in Australia now), Alesana Alesana, Steve Robke, and Ty Gray. A few players have played for the US National Team, a couple of EMAW legends were just elected to the KC Blues HOF last week, and another EMAW rugby hero is going to play for Norway's national team next month.

You know what is one of the best feelings in the world? Having a terrible day when nothing goes your way and at the very end of that day looking back and saying "You know, things could be a lot worse, at least I am a ksu cat" Nothing makes me feel more proud.
-
Every day I drive down 17th street on my way to class only to see the limestone gateways to the greatest university on the planet. It makes me smile every day. :driving:

I like the cats and I'm pretty sure they like me too. You know how I know? They win for me, A LOT!

The only downside to being a Kansas State Wildcat is that our campus isn't one of the best in the..........oh my God, are we bad at anything?

yeah, but surely you have to wait in a long security line and pay lots of money to park there, right? I assume it is a long drive, way outside of town too.
