Title: best/favorite kstate athlete of all time
Post by: Dr Rick Daris on January 30, 2016, 04:30:52 PM: bish was at the game today and it got me thinking. couldn't figure out whether he or pullen was #1. finally decided that it's close and maybe a tie and then a very dramatic drop off after those two. thoughts?

Post by: Dr Rick Daris on January 30, 2016, 04:41:07 PM: this board is a double edged sword. the plus is that joke and pranksters abound. the flip side of the sword is that people don't take conversations like this seriously and throw out guys other than bishop and/or pullen when talk about best ever comes up. i guess you just have to take the good with the bad around here.

of course it's subjective. that's why there is a poll. you can chose either bishop OR pullen as your favorite kstate athelete of all time/ever.

Post by: The Big Train on January 30, 2016, 05:02:32 PM: Probably Pullen. I was in school at the same time Pullen was and living through that on campus and stuff was amazing. I get chills thinking about all the games in the student section during Pullens career and how awesome it was.

It was sad we only got Bishop for 2 seasons, but he in K-State lore is responsible for getting us on the most realistic verge of winning a national title. And we would have won it had the end of that one game not happened. I say all that, and I love Jacob Pullen.

Title: Re: best/favorite kstate athelete of all time
Post by: chum1 on January 31, 2016, 07:14:56 AM: I don't think Pullen was on Bishop's level compared to the rest of the field. Bishop was definitely one of the top few QBs in the nation. Pullen was something more like maybe a top 10ish guard.

Over half the games his freshman season.

Also, Pullen's 28 minute, 20 point, and 4 assist night when we beat KU was followed by 8 minutes, 3 points, and 0 assists against Missouri.

this is why it is jake for me.

Bishop was at least as big of a badass, but Jake had so much joy. Also the end of his career was a disappointing loss, but capped by his taking over the all-time scoring spot and Bish's end was so painful. These are not fair things and Bishop is equally deserving, it is just my feelings of living through both.

Who would have ever thought of a cat on the cover of the TV Guide, probably the most widely distributed publication at the time

It wasn't but we'll keep that secret between us.

I don't really like gramatica because all accounts have him being a jerk vs my guy bish who everyone says is possibly the nicest human being ever.

Post by: DQ12 on February 01, 2016, 02:49:58 PM: Now that I think about it, Sproles and Jordy are probably 1 and 2. Bish is 3. Pullen is 4. Klein is 5 and Ell is 6.

1. Sproles
2. Jordy
3. Bishop
4. Pullen.
5. Klein
6. Ell

the difference is that gramatica is fake nice and bishop is actually nice. now is this a subtle difference that only I and a few other people care about? maybe, but it's my list and gramatica's fake ass nice to your face stuff but actually a bad person does not float with me. sorry gramatica lovers, you were duped.

Listen, I'm very happy for what Jake has accomplished, but IMO if you're not successful in the NBA, its hard for me to consider you as a great pro basketball player. And as a QB, Bishop was a backup in the NFL before going on to a good career in the CFL and indoor leagues. That's all very good, but for me to consider a career as a pro QB great, it would have to take place as a starter on an NFL team

True.

If you go by the NFL, the greatest K-State QBs are...
1. Grogan
2. Dickey
3. Freeman
