Hmmm.... Beems, thoughts? I thought there wasn't a big difference in talent between the two schools? Weird!

You've clearly forgot about their Orange Bowl

You realize this is a preseason list, right? There is no difference in talent between KU and K-State. If anything, KU has more talent.

It's just a fact. K-State won the last few years because of Gill vs. Scheme Doctor. KU's players have more BCS offers and more talent. Sorry. Look up the last few recruiting classes and get back to me.

it's not even fun when you reveal yourself like this.

Name one K-State player with an offer list that compares to this one:

Quote

Kansas   COMMITTED (12/23/2008)
Florida
Nebraska
Notre Dame
Purdue
Texas Tech

Or this one:

Quote

Notre Dame   COMMITTED (04/20/2007)
Florida St.
Iowa
Michigan
Nebraska
Oregon
Stanford
USC

Bottom line is that K-State has a bunch of borderline d-1 players who have been developed by Scheme Doctor and nourished through a Big 12 strength and conditioning program. KU's players didn't have any of those luxuries the past two years. Add the stars up and the offer lists and it's just not even close.

please reveal to us who these superstars are. i'm sure with offer lists like that they would be first team all big12 at least (if not AA's).

One Player
Miami (FL)
Alabama
Kansas St.
LSU
North Carolina

Dwayne Christ and Totem Opruham I think.

Arthur Brown is the best player between either program. After that its probably Malone and then Hawkinson. Klein is good, but he won't be a qb in the NFL. He also gets to carry the ball aout 70 more times than any other player in college football.

yoga-like_abana · « **Reply #16 on:** May 17, 2012, 07:31:53 PM »

oh, so I guess ku is still more talented?

OregonSmock · « **Reply #17 on:** May 17, 2012, 07:34:59 PM »

If Scheme Doctor had KU's roster I think the results would be very similar. KU's talent was considered better out of high school, but it isn't developed like K-State's. You guys should embrace that.

Don't disagree with this. If Weis and staff are any kind of competent KU should win 6 games minimum. Bet Bill would walk into that roster and break off 7 or 8 in season 1.

Strictly talent. Beems isn't far off. Gill and co. were a coaching disaster, but pretty good recruiters. The talent is there to take a significant step forward from God awful to a least average if the new staff has their crap together.

yoga-like_abana · « **Reply #22 on:** May 17, 2012, 07:45:28 PM »

sucks for crist that he couldn't be developed the first time that Weis tried to. 2nd times a charm I hear.

If we judge talent by pro success KU's bball team has had one of the least talented rosters in the conference over the last decade.

OregonSmock · « **Reply #24 on:** May 17, 2012, 07:55:35 PM »

That's another myth perpetuated by K-State fans. Hinrich was on the olympic team. Collison is a solid player for the Thunder. Chalmers is starting for the Heat. Gooden just had a big year for the Bucks. Arthur had a big year for Memphis last year before an injury this season. Rush just had his best NBA season with the Warriors. Aldrich is developing for OKC. Markieff had a really good rookie season with the Suns. Marcus is still setting into his role in Houston. Henry is getting minutes with the Hornets. Julian was kind of a bust. D-Jack has been a role player for a few teams, and Selby is a project with the Grizzlies. Pierce is the only super star, but collectively, that's a pretty good list of NBA talent.

Edit - forgot to mention that T-Rob will be a top 5 pick and Tyshawn will probably be an early 2nd rounder.
