Jerome Tang Coaches Kansas State Basketball / Re: Best K-State basketball transfer since you've been alive

Mitch Richmond hands down unless JUCO's don't count.  Then it's easily Key.

Was in Allen Field House in early 88 to see Mitch, Bledsoe and Co break the 55 game home winning streak. Mitch had a slam in that game that looked like Jordan from the free throw line.

Never forget it.

Yup. Jack was the coach when Sarge came to town. And he missed two late game FT’s against KU that led to OT and an eventual loss.

And I thought the light purple 3/4 zip was nice. That black one with the old Cat logo on it was beautiful.

Ashli Babbitt’s mother caught some bracelets in DC today. Was with some small crowd. Had no permit to protest. Went into the street. Was asked multiple times by the capitol police to  “Use the sidewalk. Use the sidewalk. Not in the street today. Sidewalk or you’ll be arrested”.

The mother refuses and then puts her hands behind her back to accept her cuffs. Then gets a touch incredulous and tries take her arms back. The next voice you hear is a person saying:

YOU’RE ARRESTING ASHLI BABBITT’s MOTHER”???

rough ridin' idiot.

I feel like I've truly rounded out my Louisiana experience bc I am now sitting on westbound I10 bc some bad person got in a wreck on this 20 mile long bridge where you shut the whole rough ridin' thing down if you get in a wreck. We're at mile marker 125.7 in case any other gE'rs wanna shoot the crap since we aren't going anywhere for a while

Back in the day, prior to the 97 Fiesta Bowl, black ice shut down I-10 for hours. There was a highway party for hours amongst the EMAW folks. totally forgot about it until now.

Kansas State Football / Re: What's your K-State FB outlook?

Definitely need an upgrade at CB and WR. I was surprised how well we held up in the trenches. Usually that's where you see an immediate discrepancy but it was not there today.

We are not exactly the healthiest in our secondary, but we have continuously been exposed when our corners are one on one.

Klandy puts a LOT of pressure on the CB’s when rushing 3. I’m just not sure you can recruit for any DB, much less 4 or 5 DB’s to hold the line for 4.5/5.0 seconds. The secondary got hit over the top a lot this year. (IMO).

Can definitely recruit better, faster stronger. But that’s just a huge ask to cover that long.

A great season. A flag will fly for the B12 Title.

My biggest fear was not that Bama's offense would be that good. My fear was their DLine would kill us. To my surprise, our line acquitted themselves well.


Outlook is sunny with a breeze at my back.

Yea, their receiver(s) are pretty good. Plus, that deep cross, you gotta get pressure or the DB covers for 4.5 seconds. Kinda tough.

But, I think the Cats are still in a good spot. They've moved the ball well. Broke a huge run. Then they creeped closer with the safeties. I think CK has something up his sleeve for this half if they can continue to run the ball and draw them up again.

If you’re walking from the French Quarter side, walk past the main ground floor entrance of Champions Square, about 40 yards further to Gate A. Quicker line. You’ll go up a big ramp.

Be aware of all the Bama scooters. They'll need that ramp to get to the nosebleed sections.

Was hoping we'd see that middle screen to DV for 6 in that last drive. (Just to hear Wyatt call it like did in 03).

I think the KSU D warmed up to that QB destruction idea by giving JDaniels all he could handle.

That pass to Davin Dennis(?) to close out the Marshall game. ugh.

But what a rough ridin' ride that season was.

Arrowhead with my son and it was cold. 11th row, parallel with the goal line in the lower bowl. Sims tipped away a sure OU TD. McGill's EZ pick. And the cherry on top. That Ted Sims pick6. I was a much younger man then.
