K-State prides itself on providing a great game atmosphere in a safe environment and did successfully execute our barrier plan when we defeated KU last year in Bramlage as well as in 2011.

What a crap statement and exactly what you would expect from ksu.  You aren't actually supposed to put the "wink, wink, nod, nod" in the actual statement.  People are supposed to read between the lines for that.  KU should call out this statement for what it is.

They should do better and accuse our fans of being too simple to read btl, or something.  I mean, posts like that are just lazy.

Yea I love ADJC for his sassy-ness and his money raising abilities.  Not many opposing fan bases hate another school's Athletic Director.  KU fans really hates Schultz too.  How entitled do you have to be to dislike another University's President and Athletic Director?   :lol:

Wildcat Nation,

On behalf of President Schulz and K-State Athletics, I apologize to Athletics Director Sheahon Zenger, Coach Bill Self and the KU basketball team for the unfortunate situation in which they were placed last night at the conclusion of our basketball game.

Our security staff, which in similar past postgame celebrations has, according to our procedures and rehearsals, provided a solid human barrier to allow the teams to conduct a postgame handshake and safely leave the court, was unable to get into proper position quickly enough last night and was overwhelmed by the fans rushing the floor.

K-State prides itself on providing a great game atmosphere in a safe environment and did successfully execute our barrier plan when we defeated KU last year in Bramlage as well as in 2011.  Although no one was hurt last night, we fell short of our expectations for securing the court and escorting KU to its locker room without incident.  We are disappointed that we did not do better for the KU team.

We are reviewing our procedures internally and consulting with our law enforcement partners to determine any steps necessary to improve our gameday security.

Additionally, we are actively reviewing video and working in concert with law enforcement to identify any fan who intentionally touched visiting players or personnel.  We will take appropriate action with such identified persons, including turning over all evidence to law enforcement so that any applicable charges can be filed.

Early this morning I met with Student Governing Association President Reagan Kays and Vice-President for Student Life Pat Bosco who are supportive of these steps.  While we are proud of the incredible atmosphere of Bramlage Coliseum and the passion of K-State students and fans, we are saddened by the insistence of some fans to sully the image of our great institution with audible profane chants.  We will continue to work with our student leadership to provide a better example of sportsmanship for our audiences.

Congratulations are still in order for our coaches and student-athletes for their tremendous effort last night.  We look forward to Saturday’s home finale against Iowa State and thank you for all that you do for K-State.

Go Cats!

Yeah, Katz was making every attempt to make k-state out to be big meanies, Currie did alright, but Holly and Fran defended our honor.  Katz really sucks at pushing a narrative, though.

Currie tricked them into believing that the problem was security being caught completely off guard by the players foregoing center court and standing on the table in an attempt to replicate last year's storm, when that's actually been happening since 2008.

Think so?  She is also a court rushing pro.  Said she's probably been in 50-100 court storms and has never felt endangered or threatened except one, which she wouldn't name but said it was not even close to K-State.

I'm talking specifically about when Katz asked her what she thought about Currie's point that the security breakdown was due to an unexpected emulation of last year's tabletop celebration and she agreed.
