Kansas State Basketball is hard / Wildcats in the pro's?

« on: July 18, 2015, 10:52:03 AM »

Could someone less lazy than me put together info on former wildcats who are playing pro (NBA or overseas)? Or if there is already a thread, point me in the right direction...

Thanks.

I am going to assume that if he goes to Creighton, not only did Zags, LSU, and Cincy all take a pass, but so did every other P5 school.

Pretty rough ridin' weird assumption, do you watch college basketball? Creighton is a better program than half of the Big 12, half of the Big 10, and 8/10 of the Pac 12 and the SEC. Cinci is in the AA and Creighton is a better than every program in that conference but one. It would suck playing in front of 17,000 fans every night and competing for conference championships in a program producing NBA draft picks.

Where are you getting your information from? Creighton has produced 4 NBA draft picks in the last 15 years. Both Cincy and LSU have produced more. Creighton also now plays in the Big East, and were completely exposed now that Dougie McBuckets graduated to the NBA. (14-19 I think) They have a great fan base in Omaha, but many fair weather fans who were used to seeing their team dominate in the Missouri Valley. I can't argue with better program (McDermott is a pretty darn good coach) but the situation there now is not good.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / Mediocre in Manhattan

« on: February 12, 2015, 07:30:09 AM »

MEDIOCRE
adjective me·di·o·cre \?m?-d?-??-k?r\
of moderate or low quality, value, ability, or performance: ordinary, so-so

Am I the only one that isn't surprised that we are so rough ridin' mediocre? We have a roster full of mediocre recruits playing for a mediocre coach. My question for all of you is: Will we ever actually be good? Or does the location of our school and size of our city deter us?

Basically, does the problem lie with Manhattan itself being in the "middle of nowhere"? I think I was privileged to have been a part of the Huggins and Martin era...because I don't see us repeating the successes that we had.

Adjust your fandom accordingly...we are forever destined to be mediocre.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / A place to rant about the teams we hate...mostly KU

« on: February 03, 2015, 08:44:22 AM »

KU beat Iowa State last night and everyone had the "revelation" that the Big 12 Title still goes through Lawrence. What grinds my gears about the whole situation is that people are surprised by this. I'm sick of hearing about how KU will have a 'down' year, and they have too many young players. YOU COULD PUT oscar WEBER AS THEIR COACH AND THEY WOULD STILL WIN THE TITLE. Why, you ask? It is hella easy to win games when you have an entire roster of 5 and 4 star recruits (sans walk ons). Bill Self is a good coach, but it doesn't matter who is in place there. It is a tradition rich basketball program and kids want to go there, and I hate it. Quit talking about the amazing coaching job going on there. Roy did it before him, and whoever comes in next will continue doing it. Hell, they should always win the title with the players coming in...everyone quit calling it the most amazing thing ever. eff.

We played like absolute crap, but we should have been blown out by 20+. We are riding the express train to struggletown. I think we miss all tournaments and have at least 2 players transfer. This season has been a joke. Screw oscar, screw these players, I have officially given up.

Dirty Mike and the boys.

Well whoever thought we were going to show any backbone, spine, or balls was gravely mistaken. What a rough ridin' load of hot garbage.

I'm feeling sentimental. What is the worst game you have ever witnessed while cheering on the Cats?

Texas Southern this year and tonight are flying up my list.

1 FG in last 8 minutes of the game. Great effort, but damn, our lack of scorers/offense got us again.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / Perimeter defense?

« on: January 20, 2015, 07:18:32 PM »

I haven't got to watch many games this season, but has our perimeter defense been this bad? Every single guy for Iowa State seems to be getting to the lane off the dribble at will. Drive and dish is killing us.

Otherwise, can't be unhappy with this game so far.

Should he even be included in this lawsuit? How is he liable for the actions (outside of practice and school) of the idiots he recruits? Thoughts?

Geez…I was excited we were adding some size to the lineup. But we don't use (or he does it himself) Hurt in anyway that resembles a post player. He is a chubby, goggle-toting, glorified 3 guard.

To summarize everyone…we suck.
