I don't blame people who didn't go.  That was an unbelievably boring affair.


It was also the first basketball game of the year, and the best chance to see everyone on the roster get lots of minutes.
It wasn't even a game, it was a "scrimmage." 

Like spring training for basketball.  You know who goes to spring training games?  Freaks.

should've had a carnival  :dunno:

I'm personally proud our fanbase is smart enough not to attend an exhibition scrimmage. 


+1

Our fans didn't show up for the exact same reason Frank felt it appropriate to dress like a caterer....

It was an open scrimmage. 

nailed it!

With at least two important 'cruits at. 

Maybe we should stop bringing 'cruits to scrimmages and bring them to big time games.  Problem solved.

Maybe we should stop swinging and missing on our top recruits.

if you define "missing" as something other than getting a mention, i suggest you need to examine your expectations for this staff.

Upshaw won't commit before this Friday.  

So....  

Maybe it would have been better to schedule his visit for this weekend.  

Ya know, when we're playing a DI bball game on Friday night and an ABC game against a Top 25 team on Saturday.

Signing period starts Wednesday, he probably wanted to complete his visits before then, take his time and take everything into consideration and then decide sometime next week.

Plus, we couldn't take the chance of OB effing this 1 up also.

How do you not understand that Upshaw decided when he was visiting, they aren't rough ridin' slaves dude they have a choice when they travel.

Yeah, I think I'm mostly referring to the guys that we appear to have actually invested in recruiting for a significant length of time and or have been on multiple visits.

Our staff is great at accumulating an impressive amount of completely fruitless mentions, though.

Don't make excuses for the student section.  They are horrible whether it's a non-con or B12 team in the house.   :shakesfist:

You realize that KU is the only other school besides Florida to win a national title and a BCS Bowl in the same year, right?  That's as combo as it gets, bruh.

Huge difference between a KU combo and a K-State combo.  KU combos are humble, yet arrogant, all at the same time.  K-State combos are just pathetic.
