Had not heard he wanted to leave the Cats.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / Adidas activewear

« on: December 26, 2020, 06:29:13 AM »

First world problem here:  Family bought me several articles of Adidas sportswear for Christmas.  They look OK, but wonder, does wearing Adidas carry the stink of cheating?  I mean, decent universities with no record of athletic cheating are sponsored by Adidas, right?  So, should I return these Christmas gifts?

Kansas State Basketball is hard / RIP Billy Tubbs

His story goes back a long time, but may be best remembered as the OU coach that coached the 1988 team that played KU for the national championship.  Always wore double-breasted suits, and had a way to connect to players from a lower income demographic--I think he grew up poor himself.  Made him a fantastic recruiter.

Did we have any coaches outside of Tom Asbury that regularly wore double-breasted suits?

Kansas State Football / Malik Knowles

« on: October 09, 2020, 06:46:44 AM »

Has anyone else noticed that he has suddenly become inconsistent in his pass-catching?  I can think of at least 2 TD's he's dropped that were catchable passes.  I know that he comes through with stud plays, but am wondering if anyone else has noticed (besides NFL scouts)?

Kansas State Football / Shout out if you're going to Memphis...

« on: December 27, 2019, 10:08:17 AM »

Got a rental car and motel room for a trip me and a grad school buddy are making to the Liberty Bowl.  Looking like temps in the 40's-50's, and tix aren't too pricey.  Interested in how many people plan on making this bowl trip.  Also, if I buy tickets off the street before the game, does it hurt KSU ticket sales / attendance stats?

Kansas State Football / Are we going to be competitive @ Norman tomorrow?

« on: October 19, 2018, 08:50:58 AM »

Players-only meeting last week seemed to improve level of play for Qatz.  Will it be enough for K-State to keep within 2 touchdowns at OU tomorrow?

Kansas State Basketball is hard / So, is all the rapey stuff at KU getting overlooked because of Baylor?

Apparently the writer at the Dallas Morning News thinks so.  It happens so often, we're kind of numb to the rapes, assaults, etc. in Lawrentucky, but the guy has a point.

Kansas State Basketball is hard / How do we do in the Big 12 torn-a-ment?

« on: March 06, 2015, 10:51:35 AM »

So, 'Cats have never won the Big 12 Mens BB tournament, and won their last Big 8 conference tournament in 1980.  Everyone says that the only avenue to NCAA tourney is winning he confy tournament.  Odds that we can win it in 2015?

Kansas State Football / Who else can give us production at RB?

« on: October 07, 2013, 11:25:14 AM »

We need more options that Hubert.  Will we see any production from Demarcus Robinson, Robert Rose, or any of the other running backs on the roster?  Saturday showed that we can run the ball, but we'll need more than Sams.

It's about time before more people get hurt like the Wescoe Hall riot.  Brady Morningstar could have gotten hurt!

Kansas State Football / I know it's Bleacher Report, but thought this was interesting

« on: July 09, 2012, 10:32:03 AM »

Of the 77 games to watch in college football in 2012, 5 are K-State matchups:
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1250490-75-best-college-football-matchups-of-the-2012-season/page/75

OU, TCU, WVU, Miami, and CTR are top matchups.

Question:  Is the fact that they are ID'd by Bleacher Report invalidate them as top games to watch in 2012?

Kansas State Football / This will kill little brother's recent pride in the football team's GPA

Moo leads the Big 12 in APR.  All of my ku friends have been bragging/gushing about the improved GPA for their football players, but having Moo come out ahead in APR will just make them wilt.

http://www.firejerrykill.com/2011/10/31/who-is-the-worst-aq-conference-team/

ku judged to be worst BCS AQ team.  Now that 38 point margin of victory doesn't look all that great.

If this has already been discussed, feel free to tell me that I'm a respect.

Question:  What did LHCBS do for the Baylor game?  Bible?  Picture of Jesus?

Berglund was nailed in Colorado, so no Lawrentucky "looking the other way" criminal justice for him.

Sands kicked off the team for failure to appear?

Discipline for DUI charge on Heeney will be handled "internally".

Translation:  ku couldn't control what happened with Berglund, Sands sucked, and Heeney is good enough to cover for.
