Somebody set me straight.... So our ad and complience people error on the side of caution, presumably so their reps are intact and we can claim due diligence and institutional control should the Beasley allegations ever flare up? And jamars last college game is a casualty of currie legal posturing (assuming that snake Malone IS the issue). That would be a crying shame for jamsam to have been such an ill treated pawn in a larger game of greed and politics

don't think the beasley thing has anything to do with Currie's thinking though, otherwise spot on.

Even money says it's Fitz that saw it and reported it so he could have a scoop.

So, if we don't suspend him, and just for shits & giggles, lets say Jamar makes up a 16 point difference (LOL), and we beat 'Cuse...then this week, or next month, whenever it comes to light that Jamar DID have eligibility issues and we forfeit everything...you guys that hate Currie now would have his back then?

The eff kind of question is this? Of course you take the win(s) now.

"It's an eligibility issue that would typically indicate an NCAA issue," Currie said. "We're working to get it resolved as quickly as we can.

"That's our total focus."

Welp, John....guess you might as well take the rest of the weekend off.

this is like 100 times better than just a regular old loss.

I am amazed that we still have any type of athletics at KSU considering how rough ridin' stupid our fans are.

Kat Kid · « **Reply #135 on:** March 17, 2012, 05:16:21 PM »

Can someone find our where Jamar banks? I'll be heading up a picket and boycott.

Frank was quoted after game saying he believed that Jam did nothing wrong, and that all other questions should be directed to the AD....was tweeted by sporting news.

Martin's quote is:

"In my opinion, he's done nothing wrong," said Martin, who also declined to provide details on the nature of the issue. "You always have to err on the side of caution and not do something and look back on it and then regret your decision.''

I believe the "he" in this quote is referring to Currie, not Jamar.

why? not that i disagree.

Mostly because of the second half of the quote about erring on the side of caution (the "side of caution" being the decision to hold JamSam out in case the Malone relationship turns out to be deeper than we know right now). Also, Frank had a second quote that I interpreted as him backing Currie's play:

"As a university, we have to take a stance and protect our university. Unfortunately, it put him in a tough spot."

I agree with Currie and Frank on this; there is no reason to place the university in a position of risk so that we can play JamSam during our run to the round of 32. If we were a 2 seed, my position would be different (as morally grey as that sounds).

Are effing kidding me . . . this was all about a little foldin money?

That's probably the nightly hand out in Doug Compton Jr's room at Jayhawk Towers.

Serious question, are the practice facility and BSFS expansion far enough along that Currie leaving wouldn't derail them significantly? Guessing yes on the first, no on the second. eff Currie.

Kat Kid · « **Reply #146 on:** March 17, 2012, 05:25:00 PM »

For 4th of July I'm going to get a John Currie pinata filled with cash money and invite the bball team over to smash the crap out of it.

I'll try to remember this post later when I'm in a mindset to appreciate it. I think it was pretty good.
