Fellow EMAW,
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you all to the FIRST ANNUAL go.EMAW.com SIGNING DAY FESTIVAL OF GREATNESS.
Or, mommies'D'FOG as it's called for short (shout out to Kellis for that one! Love ya, bro).
It wasn’t such a long time ago that the mere mention of the phrase “letter of intent” would have sent shivers of ecstasy down an EMAW’ers spine. Well, we here at goEMAW.com aren’t going to let those heady days go without a fight!
We aim to put the magic back into signing day….the wonder, the mystery, the bountiful cup that runneth over with 2 stars…..IT’S ALL BACK! We are sponsoring two contests, and these are open to everyone, to commemorate this event:
1. Essay contest: The theme is "What signing day means to me." WINNER GETS A FREE goEMAW.com T-SHIRT! Reply to this thread with your submission. The Essay must be less than 100 words. Winning entries will be judged by our Moderators. This contest opens immediately, and will close this week at Midnight, Wednesday, Feb. 3rd. I have to be honest, I don't have very high expectations for this event, partly because the posters on this board are barely literate and partly because it's admittedly a stupid idea.....so, fracking surprise me, then. :jerk: Reply to this thread with your essays....don't fracking make me PM your asses, this is a festival. :curse:
EDIT: 1. Poetry Contest: Obviously this board is a HUGE poetry board....pretty rough ridin' insensitive of me not to foresee this. That's on me. Same rules and awards apply as listed for the above, admittedly foolish and outdated, Essay Contest.
2. Photoshop contest: Best Photoshop, MSpaint, etc. job of a photo of one of our signees....in whatever manner you choose. WINNER GETS A FREE goEMAW.com T-SHIRT! We’ll open a separate thread for this effort. Winning entries will be judged by our Moderators. This contest opens immediately, and will close this week at Midnight, Wednesday, Feb. 3rd. ENTER AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE! I actually do have really high hopes for this effort. I put early odds on 'Clams MS Paint abilities and we'd be foolish to rule out Dirty Sanchez...basically this mother fracker is wide open.

Ok, Ok, no more PM's on this...
We WILL accept entries in the form of Haiku and/or dirty limerick.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I understand that those of you working in the Azerbaijian Department of Defense have little time to read a letter from a poor beet farmer such as myself. I have been receiving telegrams from an American named LHC Bill Snyder. He intends to bring me to the United States to play American football, and despite my repeated attempts at denial he continues to contact me. I am merely 5'2" and 140 pounds but this man continues to insist that I am the prototype of an outstanding football player. His continued mention of the words "Signing Day" make me rue the fate of any poor sods that agree to partake in such a horrific ritual. Please deny his continued attempts to obtain a visa to our country, as I do not want to hear from him again!

Dear Heydar,
Get ready to get your crap coached up.
Very Truly Yours,

There once was an athlete named Tate
Who played football, but wasn't so great
His Grampy was coach
And beyond all reproach
This is worse than when my girlfriend was late
-
Snyder and Leno
Both beloved by the senile
And thus both return

Signing day means I get to see threads talking about how KSU got screwed on recruiting rankings, right underneath a thread about how stars don't matter.
Signing day means I get to look up and down a commitment list that once again, for he 10th class in a row under Snyder, won't include an elite..hell an average...Big 12 quarterback.
Signing day means that I get to remember what it felt like to have an assistant that smelled and looked as good as Venzy and reminds me of the awful smelling, terrible looking assistants we currently have scouring Centralia for recruits.
Sigining day should be a day you go get flowers and lay them next to the grave marked "DOD".
I can only imagine that asking a KSU fan what signing day means must be like asking the British what the 4th of July means to them or a Native American what Thanksgiving means to them. It's a day where, if you had forgotten, should be a painful reminder of what was and what will never be again.

Rest easy fellas, Tate has put pen to paper :cool:

What a relief. Time for some coach-em-up.

There's something all you haters seem to be forgetting. So what if the 'cruits suck? OB can coach 'em up, and if that's not enough to get us to NYCpak, we've got a secret weapon...
Remember how dumbass ku fans painted up vanier before last year's sunflower showdown? And it motivated our boys up to a 17-10 ass kicking? (nevermind that we kind of sucked at the beginning of the game when we were all extra-motivated). So here's what we do. If we realize we're deficient on skill or coach-uppedness, we just get some KSU dudes to get some paint in the colors of the opposing team and paint up Vanier ourselves, as if UCLA or whoever sent some fans out early to deface "our house". OB can let our merry band of 2-stars know what happened and proceed to unleash hell on our opponent.
If we plan on this from jump, can probably save some money because many teams use the same colors. Bulk paint discount.

Now that Demarcus Robinson is signed we are in the clear to announce the Bryce Brown transfer, right?

Should be. This why we didn't take the dude from Blinn? OB'z knew all along huh?

So who will win the battle in 2 years between Tate and Arthur? :lol:

I think the d00d from Blinn just sucks.

Have no fear
The Coach'm up Gang is here
The Juco flock they will gather
Because numbers not stars are all that matters
-
I really fight the negative thing. But 11 of our "recruits" so far are grayshirts/transfers that were already here plus two coaches' sons. So, let me make my first :flush:
Also, still can't believe that Robinson and all the DTs didn't decommit to Okie State.
-
This is a very marginal class on paper, with some glimmers of potential.
That really isn't saying much, but I guess we can all :crossfingers:
-
Well, Kansas' "10th ranked in the big 12" (warning this is the talking point; "better than K-State's") class is all signed and delivered as of 10am today.
Looks like years of fun watching K-State and KU battle for 2-3 stars watching Mizzou pull in a top 15 class and OU poaching every good player out of Kansas.
At least you guys actually have had success acclimating Juco players into your system; so you have a chance....meanwhile Kansas hasn't had and impact Juco guy since Mangino's first few seasons. We actually had a good one, but couldn't get his paperwork finished....now he is signed with Tennessee.
Signing day is not quite as exciting when you are poised to land the 55th best class in the country.

Time to buy some Junction City blue in order to get Tate :curse:

Fave talking points:
this list shows that the staff did a tremendous job of getting non-qualifiers and transfers to walk-on last year with the understanding they would get a 'ship this year.
Go ahead. Argue with that. 100% true.

Dead last in the B12. Dead...rough ridin'....last. :grrr:

Transferring tends to motivate good athletes as they are now out of options, in basketball see Curtis Kelly.
Amen to that post -
Mitch Holthus said it the best when he went to the Voices reunion, "KSU is a place that gives you a chance."
Really like this as our recruiting slogan, btw.

I'm counting Brodrick Smith and Chris harper like juco transfers in this class.

I am ALL over it. They love to fellate Crabby when makes his regular appearances. However, somehow this year's rankings are way off. :dunno: We will force their accountability. :angry:

When I first saw his name, I was insanely jealous that Colorado had landed him. Plus, kid is a duel threat, and we last landed one of those in 1933. Now I'm jealous of Cinci.

Kansas State’s class of 2009 also shows how thorough Snyder and his staff were on the recruiting trail as all 28 players hail
from eight different states, including 10 from the state of Kansas, nine coming from the state of Texas, three from Florida and two
from California. Also of note, five student-athletes who were members of K-State’s 2009 squad will count towards the 2010 signing
class.
