(super)Human EcoKat on the front, EcoPakHead on the back; goEMAW.com somewhere on it.
This can happen.

We've saved more money than Lawrence now, but it still says they're in 1st place.

Rumblings that this may be rigged...

The university is completely hiding the fact that this ever happened. Shultzy probably shipped the girl who played EcoKat across the country somewhere. The videos don't work anymore. The announcements have been retracted. EkoKat won't be at power play. EcoKat won't take down a colonel at midfield on Saturday. I'm pretty bummed. We need to make these shirts in her memory.

I mean "make" as in "get designed on cafe press so we can buy them". But I love the design*.

*would love slightly more with a goEMAW mention somewhere

the decision to remove EcoKat from the page was made due to the nature of the tweets and comments being made about her, adding that the recent scrutiny of EcoKat has detracted from her goal to promote K-State in the Take Charge Challenge ... she will lay low before the program is completely halted, and if she becomes a distraction to the institution, the program will be terminated.

Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

If that's true, I don't hate the fans. I blame the jokers at the University that can't recognize an opportunity when it slaps them in their fat faces. They should have doubled down and capitalized on the publicity.

This. To not expect some negative reaction to the release of EcoKat was really dumb. But when you have multiple national sites talking about it (even if it is somewhat negative), turn it around and use it, don't just pull the plug.

when you have tucks bombarding the school with emails like this...she didn't stand a chance.

Quote
Casey,

 I am not mad. I am a Stater and I cannot be mad at a fellow Stater.
 I am just asking you to take a hard look at this Ekocat and think about it. Please for the love of our University. If you end it now, you can do damage control. This is not 1980.
 I live in Kansas City Casey. My pride is wearing a K State shirt all over town and representing our school. I am embarrassed to do this right now. Right before football season.
 Look, don't worry about it, just stop the bleeding. Please. I beg you. Trust me, we all beg you. Thanks

Quote
Katie,

That is not going to do it for me I am sorry. I know that was a nice way of saying "look we know it was a horrible idea and the entire nation has commented on it and it was #8 in twitter buzz so please just let us keep our pride and it will end in a month".

That will not work I am sorry. It is all over. Cut the arm off now, take your loss and stop the bleeding. You have that power. I promise I will buy nicer light bulbs or whatever your trying to do.
So please, I beg you, put down the hummus (I love hummus), hop into your smart car (I actually want to get one), and end this thing. YOU have the power Captain Katie........Please for the love of god.....
Here is the deal katie...If this does not end, I am going to form a group. It will be a large group Katie...The entire month of September we will meet at loose park in Kansas City for 2 hours after work from 6 to 8. This group will be dedicated to spraying hairspray into the air and snapping Styrofoam...
 Our name will be called Exocat...."Destroyers of the ozone"....we will be Ekocat's alter ego.....and it will be associated to you...

The power is in your hands....I have people on my side on this.
Respectfully,

Those letters should be forwarded to Schulz. Whoever wrote them should get the same ban from K-State that Weiser gave Dax.
