BLASPHEMY!!!!

Would that lead to Kansas in the ACC?
Or the Mountain West?
(If it's the latter, good look turning a big profit by scalping stolen league tournament tickets.)
:lol:

All a lie. They aren't being looked at seriously because of us.

Listen Steve, KU is a basketball blue-blood, an AAU member, a tier 1 suniversity and one of the haves in college athletics. KU is the flagship university in the state of Kansas and carries national brand appeal. Not to mention recent success(2008 Orange Bowl) in football and anyone can see that KU is a sleeping giant. With KSU out of the way and in mid-major land Memorial Stadium will be expanded to 75,000 seats and KU will show true might! But that will never happens because KU is tied to KSU :curse:

KU is the girl who's dad told her she was pretty her whole life. Then the girl goes to college and has no one telling her she is pretty any more other than when she is on the phone with dad.
KU, daddy(JoCo) still loves you. Just remember that.
Who cares that you have no one asking you out. Daddy says if they aren't giving you attention, they aren't good enough anyway.

a school's total revenue really is immaterial to the discussion. i know you think it's important, because it gives you something to believe in but the truth is that an athletic dept's revenue doesn't mean squat. it's television sets that matter here broseph and ku, despite what they've told themselves all these years, is still in kansas.

8th if including Syracuse WITH NYC. Either way, warm up the banner-hanging, motherfuckers!

i don't know man. unless i'm reading it wrong (which i might be because i can't follow the link at work) it looks like syracuse should be up above ku at 65,874,573 WITH NYC or whatever that means. i do agree w/ the bmw premise that if the big10 expands to 20 or 30 teams that ku will probably be one of them.

It's a total added revenue estimate, not the school's athletic revenue. In other words, KU would add ~46 million to the Big 10.

got it- sorry for not reading the link. over at Phog the guys seem to be relying heavily on the AD's revenue as if it matters.

Who can trust ku's athletic revenues anyway . . . nearly everyplace you can go find out about revenues for athletic departments has different numbers for ku . . . they're all over the map, they are also ALWAYS the last BCS conference school to have their DOE Equity in Athletics financial numbers updated. THe USA Today FOIA information doesn't match what they submitted to the DOE for their EADA reports and the respective fiscal years.
-
I know Missourians are a bunch of meth heads that steal TVs rather than watch them, but how does KU generate more cable ad dollars than Missouri?

If anything, KU's athletic revenue is underestimated because of the opportunity cost missed on all of those "complimentary" tickets.

The funny thing is had KU just let basketball slide a bit in the 90s and done something like Snyder did with the Cats, they'd be in most discussions. But they buried their heads in a basketball, and nobody gave a crap.
-
two ku co-workers just asked me if i thought that ku basketball could join the nba and they could just have the rest of their sports play in the mwc. i chuckled and said "good one" and then they got mad and told me that they were being serious and that one of them had already emailed lew about it. wow. just, wow. :lol:

I was kinda surprised to even see Iowa State mentioned on this list, and that they would less than $3 million behind Pitt. Then again, rassling is huge in the Big 10.

Or the money was laundered back through the athletic department since it was cash and never put on any books . . . you don't know, that's why the IRS and the FBI are STILL investigating ku athletics.

Yes, which would make the total revenue look like less than what it actually is.

Did you guys read the Gary Parrish colum about how KU smells and their face smells and their butts smell and nobody wants them in their conference?

Kansas -- home of a top five basketball program by most historical and current measuring sticks -- is no more of a player in the eat-or-be-eaten game of conference realignment than Iowa State or Kansas State. Or even Kennesaw State, really. And though none of this is a grand revelation -- the ACC, remember, didn't worry much about hoops when it raided the Big East back in 2003 -- it is most certainly a reminder that the future of college athletics will be decided without a single thought to how it affects college basketball.
That's actually more of a slam on the K-State and Iowa State's of the world, IMO.

Mods, rename thread to Kansas, Iowa State, Kansas State, Kennesaw State Irrelevant. Mods?

The basketball coach was clear in his preference to keep the Big 12 the way it is, stating the men's basketball coaching job is "not as attractive if we're not a BCS conference."
http://www.wibw.com/sports/headlines/95797584.html
So do you think Self is more likely to take the Oklahoma State job or just jump to the pros?
-
My guess is he goes to whichever offers first. Nail in KU basketball's coffin. They had a pretty nice run despite all the violations and junk.

IMO, he should jump to the pros, earn a fat check and if it doesn't work out, hop back to college, especially since the landscape might have settled by then.

Well, they are on ESPN just about every Monday during basketball season.
-
Looks like we have found why we KU is not getting invited to a conference....KU and KSU are a package deal. No one wants anything to do with KSU
These are the straight up published numbers self-published by each school and to the board of regents.
Living Alumni
...
KU - 305,717
KSU - 158,828
Endowment
KU - $955 mil
KSU - $259.8 mil
Current Student enrollment
KU - 30,004
KSU - 21,570
Athletic dept. net worth
KU - $86,009,257 (2nd in the Big 12 only behind UT and #10 in the nation)
KSU - $48,160,113
Academics
KU
consistently ranks well above KSU in every national ranking of overall
academics. For example in the 2010 US News rankings, KU is #96 and a
tier 1 school, while KSU is unranked and a tier 3 school. KU is an AAU(Association of American Universities) member, while KSU is not.

Well you can lower ku's athletic department numbers by $20 million based on the information they released to USA Today . . . then again, as stated, you can't take what ku reports as fact, because they've been all over the map and who knows how badly Lew has cooked the books . . . their athletic department is currently operating in the red as well per Lew himself in USA today back in April.
Plus nice usage of the Spring Semester enrollment number, which are always lower than the Fall enrollment number which was 23,581. But Tardville has never been very good at doing any actual research.

Look at the actual numbers Ben . . . and should I post Lew's quotes again from this last April about ku athletics operating in the red??
There's a reason the IRS is still auditing ku athletics.

Some highlights from the article:
6. Kansas becomes a LeBron-like free agent.
One of the great mysteries amid the ongoing Pac-16 speculation is what will become of Kansas, which, while not necessarily a football power, has a huge alumni base, sits in a decent TV market and, most notably, boasts one of the nation's most prestigious basketball programs. It's seems hard to believe the Jayhawks will fade into the wilderness.
Kansas has pledged its loyalty to the Big 12, but if the league implodes, who's to say the Big Ten wouldn't couple KU with Missouri? For all we know, Jim Delany prefers the Jayhawks. If not the Big Ten, what about the basketball-centric Big East, which knows no geographic bounds (see: Marquette)? It could be that KU can't go anywhere without K-State, thus diminishing its appeal, but if not, another major program could be changing major conferences.
11. A new conference is born.
For a brief, glorious four-year run in the early '90s, Nick Van Exel (Cincinnati), Penny Hardaway (Memphis) and Tom Kleinschmidt (DePaul) wreaked havoc in the short-lived Great Midwest. Why not bring it back -- only with a different lineup and a football edition?
I hereby propose the following consortium of teams plucked from the potential wreckage of the Big 12 and Big East: Cincinnati, Memphis, Louisville, West Virginia, USF, Connecticut, Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State and Baylor. With a couple of strong years, who's to say this league wouldn't qualify for BCS status?

Would they be more attractive than ksu if teams could actually fly into Lawrence like they can with the Hat?

Butt hurt squawkville has cranked the validation and affirmation up to 11 . . . shooting for 12.

ku fans are not taking this confirmation of their irrelevance very well.

I just checked phog on this stuff for the first time. It seems many are taking solace in the notion that the Pac-10 actually wants to take KU, but is unable to.

only b/c the P10 listens to 810 and also had read Pete's post about the schools being connected. if it weren't for Pete and BITB, KU would already be in the PAC 10 or Conference Elite.

What's the "unable to" part? Is it being in a FBI/IRS investigation thingy; or, that they don't have room for a team from Hickrence, KS?

You know clams the overall power and weight this board carries across the spectrum of sports and world affairs can be a burden at times . . . but I think you'll agree it's worth it.

Exactly. Here's what happened:
1) Pac 10 "bigwig" really really wants Kansas.
2) Bigwig reads Pete's post.
3) Bigwig says, "well, guess we'll take OU/OSU instead. Shucks."

big 10 was a little different though.
1) big 10 wants to expand
2) big 10 studies expansion for like a year
3) big 10 totally wants ku
4) big 10 backs off as soon as they read a quote from BoR member dan lykins online in the topeka capital journal saying that ku and ksu as besties

uk trying to convince everyone they are worthy of a megaconference invite reminds me of the scene in Risky Business, where Joel has the guy from Harvard in for an interview while there is a giant party going on around them.
Big 10/Pac 10 Guy: "Let's see here. A couple of fluky National Championships, multiple Final Four appearances.....ooooh, are those Helms title banners up there? JV Tennis.....You've done some solid work but it's just not BCS Conference now, is it?"
uk: (puts on sunglasses) "Looks like Mountain West to me!!"

http://collegesportsblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2010/06/why-texas-tech-got-the-nod-ahead-of-kans.html
Some people in Kansas City have expressed surprise that Texas Tech was included among the six Big 12 schools getting possible invites to the Pac-10, ahead of Kansas and Baylor.
(Don't take offense, Red Raider fans. It's a fair question).
One person with knowledge of the college football landscape offered an interesting explanation. The Texas political scene might make it difficult for Texas and Texas A&M to exit, leaving Tech in a husk of a conference. Rather than risk losing the Longhorns and Aggies, the Pac-10 opted for Tech, which has been extremely competitive in football and has added capacity to Jones AT&T Stadium. Three members in Texas is not necessarily a bad thing.
Kansas has great basketball tradition and some name value, along with bringing the Kansas City market. But the Pac-10 would probably have to take Kansas State along with KU.
Baylor, despite success in just about every sport except football, was hurt by being a private, church-affiliated school. The Pac-10 consists of large, secular, state schools. Remember the reports of how the conference was not sold on BYU? Baylor may have found itself in the same situation, which is a little bit of a shame given the basketball success this past season.

The Pac 10 wants KU, but they don't want K-State. You guys are like a cancer that won't go away.

Am I the only one not hearing all the swirling rumors of other conferences wanting KU?

Yep it's false, and they are still being passed over. Ouchies.

:bawl:
It's all K-State's fault. It has nothing to do with your fans not showing up to football games, or your football team sucking. Did you know that the BCS bowl last year with the two mid-majors actually drew better ratings than your Orange Bowl victory over Virginia Tech? To make matters worse, you know that everyone with even a curiosity about KU was watching that game because it was probably the last time KU will ever be in that position.
-
Poor kid . . . that post was just an absolute fail on every level.
Sad . . .
-
Ben is just relegated to parrotting Tardville talking points . . . it has literally been weeks since he had anything original . . . so very sad.
-
The Pac-10 wants Texas and anyone else needed to get Texas. That's it. Whether or not KU and KSU are tied together is completely irrelevant.
-
K-State... the hemorrhoid on the tip of KU's ass crack that just won't go away.
:curse:

It's times like these where I wish little brother of the poor would have a "go to" sport besides soil judging.

K-State... the hemorrhoid on the tip of KU's ass crack that just won't go away.

I would probably feel the same way about KU if you guys had a better season than K-State in... well anything, really. But you didn't.

It's funny how scared $hitless ku is at the thought of trying to go it alone.

Prolly wouldn't be that way if KU was good in other sports a la Nub and was not full-o-crooks.
Hemorrhoids don't just develop for no reason...either sittin' on yer ass too much or pushin' too hard to dump excrement. Seems both of which have happened recently with our alma mater wouldenyasay?

Well after 2009-2010 Year of Failure for ku, it's no wonder you guys are lashing out at us so much.
Overall an absolutely pathetic effort by ku athletics in 2009-2010 topped off with FBI/IRS investigations, grand jury inquiries, an AD melting down and a Chancellor begging other schools to stay in the Big 12.
New levels of low self esteem are reached daily by ku and ku fandom at this juncture.
Pathetic and . . . sad.
-
If only K-State had something to show for besides their elite soil judging program.
:curse:

Yeah, with that resume, it's pretty safe to assume the entire world is wrong about no big conferences wanting ku.

Why would another conference care how well your baseball and softball teams performed within the Big 12? How did those teams do in the college ws? Also, don't you guys tell Mizzou fans that only regular season championships count?

Winning the north is no real accomplishment. Not being able to win the north just proves that KU and Iowa State are two of the worst BCS football teams in the country and that they should probably be midmajors.

The expanding conferences don't care about basketball. They want schools with hardcore football fans, the ones who on New Year's Day will get on their rival's chat and post things like "Today is my Christmas. I'm watching fball all day man of taste and distinction".

Yet still couldn't even win the north. It almost sounds impossible to believe, best season EVER and couldn't even win their division, let alon conference? KSU has done that 3 times for crap's sake.
I'd say making the elite 8 is as good as a BCS bowl so, fail. You are just a shell. You can only blame yourself for hopping on the ku football wagon that everyone in the country could see was built on smoke and mirrors and cheating.

Nobody at K-State is claiming it was the "Best year ever" Ben . . . that's the point dumbass.
Again 2009-2010 KU: Season of Fail has you lashing out even more lately.
Actually, the point is that even in a "season of fail," KU has more Big 12 titles to show for than K-State. Pretty sad, really.
You do realize that those Big 12 titles are about to become just as relevant as your Helms titles, right?

All those Big 12 titles and nobody wants ku . . . poor Tardville.
Cue . . . more Bentard "perception is reality" . . . in 3, 2, 1 . . .

It's not K-State per se', it's just that there are 2 D1 programs in a rural state. Same can be said that KU is holding K-State back. Fact is, KU fans won't really watch KU games and vice versa, so the # of TV's KU or KSU could sell is limited. Amazing that you haven't figured that out yet, maybe you should listen more to what Seff has said the past few days.

If by plenty of conferences, you mean Mountain West, Missouri Valley, Ohio Valley, etc. then yes.

:lol: just face it, dude....KU is just as screwed as KSU in this whole thing. The quicker you realize that, the easier it'll be on you. Realignment is all about the # of tvs in the viewing area, and nobody gives a crap about Wichita/Topeka/Kansas City. Neither school has anything to offer.

Seriously, am I the only one not hearing the rumors about conferences wanting KU?
I don't know what is more entertaining, the crap made up in Lawrence lately, or the panic that is causing them to make the crap up. Either way, it is entertaining as hell to watch.

Seriously. Some dude jumped off the Oread he was so upset that the nation thinks so little of ku. Getting mighty tense in Lawrence.

When this is all over the Big East relevant as the Big 12.

Had to start killing themselves since all the homeless moved to Lincoln and Columbia. The good part is is that homeless leaving does not affect our state TV #'s.

Kietz just said that K-State's best chance of getting into a BCS conference, after everything shakes out, is to attach itself to KU. He said that KU would most likely get interest from conferences like the Big East and ACC. This is basically what I've been trying to tell you guys for the past week.
:dunno:

Actually, you've been trying to tell us that we are already attached. This would imply that we are not.

We're already in a BCS conference. :dunno:

Kietzman: "I think Kansas and Missouri have a really good chance of catching on somewhere, but K-State might be on the bubble. Their best bet is to attach themselves to Kansas."
:surprised:

Yeah kk said the opposite of what beems has been saying

If the perception is that KSU is a package deal with ku, wouldn't they also believe that we run the same kind of corrupt program?
Perception is reality, am I right?

you would get absolutely destroyed every year in the acc.

So tardville makes fun of everything that Keitzman says . . . then Keitzman (who doesn't really know $hit when it comes to K-State) says that about K-State's "best bet" and Tardville's chief parrot runs over here with it.
Classic.

I thought all you Tardville guys hated Kietzman. Now you're listening to his show, believing everything he says, and quoting him on a KSU message board?? This, my friends is exactly why Kietz is the BITB.

let KU go to the Big East/ACC 1 Ben will be able to move on with his life and not have to spend all of his free time reminding us that we are not rivals besides....
MWC > ACC imo
football is driving all of this remember nobody gives a hullabaloo about hoops (talking to you ACC/Big East)
TCU
Houston
Boise
Utah
BYU
KSU
Colorado (when PAC 10 takes baylor to get the tejas sisterhood)
CSU
Nevada
these teams as a football core would be just as strong as anything offered by Big East/ACC

who cares less about their credibility BMWJhawk or BITB? mods should change BMWJhawk's handle to BITBJhawk.
love ya beems. you and royalswild

So how does it feel to be the dingleberry attached to KU's ass crack?
:confused:
-
if KU moves to the ACC or Big East, do they get to take the big XII basketball refs with them? We've seen how they do without them.

The last time KU played an ACC team in the tournament, they won by 18 points (UNC in '08 Final Four).

add KU, Missou and ISU and keep the big 12 name.

Def would rather be dangling from OSU or Baylor, much better options than what KU has to offer. Seff is wishing he were dangling from OSU, too.

No kidding. For a "flagship school" that has to carry K-State's load, KU sure does a shitty job.

Man, everything #KU touches these days turns to hell. Glad I never picked up my degree. Thing would probably catch on fire

K-State's best chance of making it to a BCS conference is to cling to KU's nut sack and hold on for dear life.

What basketball coach wouldn't want to go to the Pac 10 right now? That conference is so bad at bball it's not even funny.

Kevin Keitzman . . . least knowledgable of all that's been quoted . . . best drama though, thus BITB.

i've heard that too. just would have been a cleaner move back then than having to push out Travis Ford now.
