I'm going full tilt K-State Sports facebook page comments

Tricia Joshua Murphy
We have to appreciate the unselfish play and the no quit attitude. I still hold my position on foster and he should transfer. At least we r competing and on the road had a chance to win against a top 25 team. I believe weber is doing everything he is capable of. He can't control missed free throws and missed lay ups.


Joe Wilson
marcus foster...please transfer.
*asked why*
Joe Wilson
where would you like me to start?
Joe Wilson
lack of leadership? no defense? lack of offense?


Robert Alan Spencer
Football is whare Kstate is more good at then

Luke Mcvicker
All you haters know nothing whst goes on. Weber has had one bad year give guy a break . Yes its been a bad year if he has another bad year then fine. But come on have some sense. Weber is way better then Altman Wooldridge asbury teams put together


Max Arthur Johnson
I wish Foster and Coach Weber would settle the problem and get him back on the court. We aren't going to any post season at this rate.

Names redacted for people who don't need public shaming

I really don't think that KSU fans are less liberal on balance.  The stupid KSU fans don't understand that there are large segments of wealthy KU fans that are in lock step agreement with them on hating all things liberal....and because of this ignorance they have the false perception that KU supporters are liberal.

I'd argue the KU, Williams Fund donors may be one of the most staunchly homogeneous conservative groups in the country.

That's all very true.  I'm not even arguing which fanbase is more liberal.  I've just noticed that some of the rhetoric from K-State fans has a very hateful, anti-liberal, anti-Lawrence, political element to it.  I don't see the same type of rhetoric from KU fans, but hey, maybe I just haven't noticed it.

And FWIW, Kevin Harlan (stud KU alum) agrees with me when it comes to KU being a sleeping giant.  We're within close proximity to KC, we've got a beautiful campus, a top 50 public research institution, good facilities, and we're located in a pretty great college town.  KU basketball is the 2nd-most valuable basketball program in the country and has a huge, national fanbase.  If the football program ever got its crap together, we'd be top 10 in the country in overall athletic revenue.  We saw it back in 2007/2008.

As for Notre Dame, this isn't 1974.  Every big-time football program is on national television these days.  Notre Dame obviously has a huge fanbase and is more of a hot commodity in realignment because of its status as a traditional football power, but the gap isn't as wide as you would like to believe.  Tim Grunhard has talked about the decline of Notre Dame in detail on 810 radio.  Their status has really taken a significant hit in the past few years by not being tied to a P5 conference, and certain traditions are being questioned due to growing concerns over the program's relevancy.

Quote
Kansas

? Operating revenue: $97.681 million

? Operating expenses: $90.057 million

? Operating profit: $7.625 million

Unlike most athletic departments, KU made more money after expenses from men’s basketball ($9.774 million) than it did from football ($8.333 million) in fiscal year 2014.

I've the heard the words, "sleep giant" and "ku football" used in the same sentence for decades now.   There's a reason why its been 47 years since ku won a conference title in football.

2014 Basketball Revenue:

UNC $20.9 million
Louisville $40.9 million
Kentucky $23.6 million
Syracuse $29.7 million
Kansas $18.2 million
Duke $27 million
Ohio State $21.3 million
Indiana $21.9 million
Wisconsin $19.3 million

2nd most valuable basketball program?

Sleeping Giant implies that it was once an awake giant and then took a nap and could then be awakened. Like, Michigan, Texas, Miami, Florida would be sleeping giants. ku is more like a 90 lb accountant who I guess could be a giant if you gave him like a ton of steroids and muscle transplants and stuff

2. Kansas Jayhawks
Team value: $33 million
One-year change: 0%
Profit: $20 million
Conference: Big 12
Head coach: Bill Self
Kansas wasn't always a top financial power, but the team now bests even Louisville in some categories, such as ticket sales ($12.9 million). The Jayhawks are one of just two Big 12 teams on our list; the other, Texas, is at No. 16.

Oh okay.  Profit $20 million?  Hmm, FY 2014 net revenue after expenses for ku basketball . . .$9.774 million.

The Forbes guy just pulls numbers out of his ass.

Total team value isn't strictly tied to '14 profit levels, 'Pad.  Good grief.

I know and it's an idiotic formula, but if you need it for your glossy brochure world, knock yourself out.

Sad that you cling to such contrived dribble.
