Baldwin? Ks??

I don't get the butthurt over losing a player to KU. That isn't going to come back and bite us in the ass as long as Snyder is around, he beats KU like a redheaded stepchild every year. If we lose out on a recruit, I'd much rather they go to KU than a place like Oklahoma State or one of the Texas schools - you know, teams that might actually beat us.

Yeah, it is puzzling why anyone in their right mind would choose KU over KSU right now, but hey...better they play for Weis than Gundy if we can't sign them.

Because small Kansas towns have never produced elite Kansas State players...

It's not that we are losing a player to ku (although that only further highlights how shitty our assistants are) it's that we are losing players we want/need.

Eff me! Baldwin is Eudora's rival. I'm not ok with this. Everything from that town is pud.

Pro tip- a kid like that from Baldwin will be a walk-on, and very possibly a grey shirt to boot. The grey shirt system has worked well for us so, if the kid has any sort of upside, there's zero reason to meltdown. Not that you guys need a reason.

I will. I might ask a few players as well.

No. KC. I graduated there in '03. I use to date all the Baldwin girls to piss off the players.

He hasn't committed yet, has he? His twitter comment says he hasn't yet.

Dude, I've been fighting this fight since the inception of goEMAW. You can't win this fight. I gave up long ago. He's a bit of advice- If things are going well, act too cool and find something to bitch about. If things arenkt going well, act too cool and say Itoldyouso. It's really a pretty simple system.

This.

Don't get butthurt about kids announcing they are coming to KSU when you don't know the situation.

If I was a HS kid I'd be ecstatic if LHC Bill Snyder told me he would give me a helmet and some shoulder pads and let me start on the scout squad. I might even say something about how excited I am on Twitter. Then I would probably look at the KSU message boards to see who else is going to be in my class and I would find all you assholes bitching about what a loser I am.

STFU

I've seen nothing in his tweets that lead me to believe Combs is (truly) favoring KU.

Delva is down to two, but I don't know who the second one is (since it's behind the Rivals pay wall).

Nash has us in his final group. He still has a visit to OSU, I think.

Marshall was pretty much down to KSU, Tech, and Indiana. Well, I think our chances look better by the day.

And Waters is down to KSU and Penn State. With late interest from Texas and Alabama.

So, we complain about not going after kids with offers, and when we do, we flip out when they trim their lists and leave us as finalists?

God, this board is just astounding sometimes.

Basing off some of the quotes he gave wally I'd be surprised if he doesn't commit to the cats. Didn't like how far away Oregon State was and how they didn't mention academics once on his visit.
