2 p.m. CST and we will know that Duke is #1 and K-State is #5 (prediction)

Hey, dummy....if they have a graphic that shows Duke, KSU, MSU, and Pitt, then those are the top 4 teams in their poll....so we're not going to be #5.  Common sense, stormy.

I never thought I would see the day when K-State fans decided that a preseason ranking was something worth celebrating.  So very sad.  The transformation to lily-livered KU fans is complete.  

I don't understand how you can all go ahead and cheer for thugball and Frank Martin(ez)'s theatrics, while putting down the greatest coach in KSU's history.  Last I checked it was still football season, our (and I mean our in the loosest sense possible since you don't seem to like football anymore) team is 5-1, and just whooped up on the Sqwaks again.

But don't let me stop you from putting on airs.  When this team collapses in January as usual I will be here to remind you that football drives the bus at this school.

flattered but i'm not drinking the kool aid.  i think what K-State fans are getting a glimpse into, is how these preseason rankings come together.  

one or two respected outlets will release their top 25 and then everyone else just follows suit, maybe moving a few of the teams around.  the snowball just starts rolling down hill.

Texas was preseason #3 last year, UNC and Illinois were preseason top 10. we have a lot of questions to answer going into this season, hopefully Frank isn't too wet behind the ears and doesn't fall into the hype.

Wake me up when Frank Martin(ez) actually beats his rival more than once in 3 years (they have played 8 times already) and wins the conference (or heck anything).  Now that the league is actually going to start calling fouls, the streetball that Frank runs will quickly get abused by teams with strong fundamentals and team play.  Quite frankly it was about time the NCAA tried to clean up the game before it became the little NBA.

Anyone can get ranked highly in the PREseason.  Frank is a media darling (with his "poor immigrant" sob story and minority status) that ESPN loves to highlight to show how "oh so progressive" they are.  Same reason ESPN hyped Ron Princess when he was destroying our football program.  You sheep keep chewing that grass, but soon enough you'll realize they're just fattening you up for the slaughter.

It's interesting that the coaches think so highly of K-State (also considering the Big 12 coaches' pick).  I wonder if Frank is well-respected in the coaching community and this has picked up some votes for K-State.   :dunno:  Of course, at a lot of places, the SID or basketball ops guy is the one who actually fills out the ballot.

I would expect to see us lower in the Big 12 media and AP polls.  KU will get more first place votes, if not be picked to win the Big 12, and it will be closer in the AP poll as well (depending on any new Selby info).

But don't let me stop you from putting on airs.  When this team collapses in January as usual I will be here to remind you that football drives the bus at this school.
 

Just go ahead and let us know when OB has us ranked #3 before the season starts in football sometime...until then stop taking a cac on our parade  :pbj:
Wake me up when Frank Martin(ez) actually beats his rival more than once in 3 years (they have played 8 times already) and wins the conference (or heck anything).  Now that the league is actually going to start calling fouls, the streetball that Frank runs will quickly get abused by teams with strong fundamentals and team play.  Quite frankly it was about time the NCAA tried to clean up the game before it became the little NBA.

Anyone can get ranked highly in the PREseason.  Frank is a media darling (with his "poor immigrant" sob story and minority status) that ESPN loves to highlight to show how "oh so progressive" they are.  Same reason ESPN hyped Ron Princess when he was destroying our football program.  You sheep keep chewing that grass, but soon enough you'll realize they're just fattening you up for the slaughter.

Quote from: Gary Parrish
Let me start by telling you that I love Kansas State as much as the next guy ... as long as the next guy isn't ranking Kansas State ahead of Duke this preseason. I can't get with that next guy, because he's really just a look-at-me-I'm-different guy, which brings me to Dave Jones and Kevin Dunleavy.

(Sorry, Dave. You did this to yourself, buddy.)

Those are the two AP voters who put Kansas State No. 1, and it's the first thing that stood out when I looked at the poll. The reason it stood out is because it can't be intelligently justified. Even those who hate Duke have to acknowledge this roster might be more talented and better equipped than last season's roster to run through the regular season, and last season's roster won the freaking national championship. The Blue Devils have a perfect mix of experience and NBA talent, plus the most accomplished coach in America. So you can like KSU if you want (and I like the Wildcats plenty; I have them in the top five). But what you can't do is have Kansas State ahead of Duke, because, well, that's just silly.

The Poll Attacks

Associated Press poll: The only thing sillier than ranking Kansas State No. 1 in the preseason is dropping KSU after a 75-61 win over James Madison, but that's precisely what Dave Jones and Kevin Dunleavy did this week, presumably because they were worried about being featured in consecutive Poll Attacks. Well now look. Trying to avoid the Poll Attacks has landed them right back in the Poll Attacks, because neither understand how to properly rank and predict. So allow me to offer a lesson, and that lesson is this: Always stick with it until you can't anymore!
