I'm not sure there's one true statement in that post.

Kansas State Football / Official: New Uniforms Dream and Info Thread

You have to be careful when you split KANSAS and STATE above and below the numbers. On TV close ups you only see KANSAS and we do not want that comparison.

Used to happen during Wooly-era hoops and it drove me crazy.

Also, I know I am in the minority here, but love the lavender.

Finally, each Tuesday before the weekly press conference, I got to load up a bag of Arby's (including a cherry turnover) and take it to Coach in his office. He was always watching film and never once saw me, but always thanked me for bringing it in.

Hmm, no MHK Taco Bell yet?
I think we had Taco Bell, but we were pretty devoted to Taco Grande (I think that's the name) back then.  Also, you have to remember K-State wasn't very picky back then.  If you were willing to provide free food for a press conference, it was gratefully accepted.

1993 season I was a senior working in the sports information office and it became clear pretty quick that this team was going to be different. A few memories from that season...

Friday afternoon before the first game, we are putting game programs and game notes in all the suites (brand new press box and suites!) during walk-through and Snyder spots us sitting in one of the suites and promptly sends a low-level staffer to find out who we were. Every game after that, we loaded the suites on Saturday morning.

I got to travel to the Iowa State game (freaking streaker) and I am in the locker room post-game and Chad May just keeps talking and talking with the media. I feel a hand on my shoulder and its LHCBS, who points at May and tells me "Shut him up and get him out of here."  I gave the media a "thank you boys, but Chad has to go" and off we went. Side note, we got to Des Moines and the charter plane wasn't there yet. I was grateful to be in bus #3 because I heard Snyder was chewing people out left and right.

Finally, each Tuesday before the weekly press conference, I got to load up a bag of Arby's (including a cherry turnover) and take it to Coach in his office. He was always watching film and never once saw me, but always thanked me for bringing it in.

Twenty-five years later I still consider that season one of my favorites.

I need to see some cranes and soon. I cannot survive on soccer stadiums and rowing facilities.
