Wow, great thread. They attacked EMAW for being sexist, apparently disregarding the fact that they are the cowBOYS. Then laughed because we have only won the Big 12 once in football, disregarding that they've never even made it to the Big 12 Championship. Those fans are delusional. Hope they can stay attached to OU or they're screwed.

We don't necessarily have to take ALL of K-State to the SEC.

[Emo EMAW]

Colleague from U of Florida just told me his Dad was golfing with the AD yesterday and he had to leave the course to discuss something "K-State related."

[Trim]

Kind of makes all the Populous butthurt last month seem ridiculous.  Obviously, wheels were in motion.

[Stevesie60]

It's threads like these that make me feel worthless for not knowing any higher-ups at any school.

Know how you feel, bro.  I just feel good knowing people who know people who know people.

FWIW, there are a few of us who get almost everything from one person, BigshotAttorneyCat....but believe me, that's more than enough.

[Pete]

Could someone confrim how close Eric Stonestreet REALLY is with Ben Sherwood?  PM if needed, TIA.  Trying not to get my hopes up, here, but exciting none the less.

[Pete]

OK, first, thanks for the PM's guys.  We appreciate it.

BUT, some of this stuff is coming so fast that it can be a bit overwhelming, and frankly hard to believe.  So, we are NOT going to post everything you send us.

Having said that, our attention has been called to something that hits pretty darn close to home.  As some of you in the educational community know, there is a new scholarship program called the "Pat Roberts Intelligence Scholars Program."  It's program recently initiated to recruit and train members of the intelligence community by extending lucrative and prestigious scholarships to undergrads and grad students.

Additionally, as most of you know, aTm would like to think it's our Nation's premier source for non-academy collegiate officer and enlistee candidates for the Armed Forces and National Security related positions.

No one seems willing to state this overtly, but there is reason to believe that a harmony between KSU and aTm is in the best interest of scholarship seeking institutions.

Take that for what it's worth, folks.

I'll be making my first SEC gameday trip this fall to see Auburn @ LSU.  Should be a good taste of what is to come in the near future.  Let me know if they want to open up a suite for a few cat fans in Baton Rouge for the game so they can get to know their new SEC bretheren.

i'm a little slow getting going today, but i got some good info last night out on the ponies.  so anyways, i guess i was a little off yesterday, the sec rumors people have been hearing so much about are legit.  the sec is a very important option for kstate.

but, don't buy your oxfords just yet.  it's not the only option, and as i tried to explain yesterday, it's definitely not everyone's preferred option.  zenger has been working the phones night and day, and has the right people in manhattan and in the acc listening to everything he's saying.  the acc is now looking at bringing in kstate and ku as well as a third school to bookend the best bball conference in america.

kstate is more interested than some of you might be willing to believe, but as you might imagine, the third school is the sticking point.  there are several options, but so far, not a one that everyone can agree on.

those of you that know who i was with last night know how solid this info is, so i won't waste anyone's time talking about where i heard this.

I don't like the idea of KU coming with us, but I know better than to doubt your info.  As always, thanks Sys!

[WillieWatanabe]

OK, just got in touch with some of my sources in some select SEC IT depts. Apparently there have been some pretty interesting email conversations going back a forth between University Presidents.

 Now, he wouldn't divulge everything, but he did say that the latest US News College Rankings HAVE come up. Take it for what its worth. But i believe Shulzy is working the Academic angle on this deal as well. More to come when i know more.

[Trim]

OK, who the eff is Jason Yellin from Knoxville and why is he sending me vague e-mails about this to my personal e-mail but calling me "Trim"?

[Rage Against the McKee]

Guys, this thread is getting too big. The OSU guys have caught wind of it, and I just hope we haven't "Fitz'd" ourselves.

Take lots of pictures and some video so we know what to do.

I want our new confy mates to accept us right off.

All I know is dress in a suit and fry peanuts. There must be more.

[sys]

thanks pete.  and keep it mind, the sec option is alive and well, i'm just pointing out that there are a lot of voices at kstate that want to be heard, and not everybody wants the same things.

oh, and everyone might think of currie as an sec guy, but he was born in carolina.

Had a big video conf meeting this morning with a guy (We'll call him Van) and once our business was done he asked me to stay on and we talked some college sports.  He flat out said that KSU will not get a formal SEC invite if thethered to ku.  KU's lack of any viable Arch or Eng program (or any hard science program worth crap) is simply not acceptable to Van.  He admitted that his school does not pay the freight sportswise in the SEC but it is an academice institution with some pretty important folks calling shots.

I like and respect this guy so this was a pretty bad piece of info for me to hear.
