Kansas State Football / Re: New Defensive Coordinator

« on: February 15, 2018, 04:16:03 PM »

I am not trying to infer that Norwood is guilty of any wrongdoing, but I feel that Ryan Wallace is a bit off on his dismissal of Norwood's past. Sandusky had access to the Penn State facilities in 2002, which is when Mike McQueary saw him abusing a child and when Sandusky's keys were taken away to the facility soon after. Norwood began his stint as the Penn State safeties coach in 2001, so there is some time overlap there. The chance Norwood saw anything or knew anything about Penn State is small, but still, some overlap exists.

However, with Baylor all of the alleged 52 rapes occurred between 2011-2014, which was completely within the timeframe Norwood was there as an assistant head coach. The culture with that program in that timeframe was very toxic and rape enabling, and while that doesn't make him guilty I personally wouldn't touch anything from that timeframe in Waco with a 10 foot pole.

If anyone is interested, college football reddit has been simulating the college football season week by week based on user voting and random number generation. Each new week comes out every MWF from what I have seen. If you have a google account feel free to participate. So far we are 4-1 with a loss to Texas.

Kansas State Football / 2017 pre-spring starting lineup guesses

« on: January 08, 2017, 09:54:50 PM »

Here is a guess for next year's starters on offense and defense before the spring game. Players that had at least one start last year are in bold.

LT S. Frantz
LG A. Beecham
C R. Najvar
RG T. Mitchell
RT D. Risner
QB J. Ertz
RB J. Silmon
FB W. Dimel
TE D. Valentine
WR B. Pringle
WR D. Heath

DE T. Wood
DT W. Geary
DT T. Dishon
DE R. Walker
LB T. Tanking
LB S. Sizelove
CB D.J. Reed
CB D. Shelley
NB C. Moore
S K. Adams
S E. Walker (three-star recruit, third ranked safety in the country)

I am most unsure about guessing for the linebacker positions and the safety spot Barnett vacates. Elijah Sullivan and Justin Hughes could also start, and maybe someone like Goolsby could make a run at safety. Also, Barnes should see a decent amount of playing time, I just have Silmon starting because Silmon recorded a start this year and Silmon is a year ahead of Barnes.
