That's just one sport.

You can't support a BCS Level athletic program with just basketball.   ku athletics was nearly $9 million in the red last year.

Around $7 million of that was GFTO money paid to Turner and his staff.  I don't think you'll see anything like that for FY2012, especially d/t the nearly $20 million in profit our basketball team generated.

Last I heard only 3m of that 7 has been paid. KU is paying it off in installments, not a lot of spare cash on hand.

Football is KING. There are no ifs ands or buts. It. just. is. Basketball is forever doomed since the NCAA owns the media rights to the post season.

we should fill one of our boss trophies with kittens and one with puppies and then have the titletown fans vote on which one was more adorable. just thinking about some possibilities we can explore since we life in trophy filled titletown

I'm going to take 2 big bottles of Hawaiian Punch and fill each trophy full of Hawaiian Punch, then, I challenge anyone, even you steve dave, to see who can drink the trophy full of Hawaiian Punch the fastest.

And get this part, you can't use your hands or a straw!

Calling Manhattan "Titletown" is absurd. Everyone knows that Titles are National Championship Titles. And unless you call Debate a Title, I don't know of any Titles won by K-State. I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong!!!

ku hasn't won a conference championship in football in #45years.

that's right but KU has 3 bowl wins since your last bowl win...and 1 of those is a BCS win. how's that tase?
Just looked this up.  In head-to-head competition kstate has outscored ku 412-29 on the gridiron since ku's last bowl appearance.  KState has also won 47,000,000% more conference games, been to 3 bowl games and finished a collective 72 spots ahead of them in conf standings.

Totally bro, I've watched about 20 games in the last 4 days. Should we fire up the chat for the game so you and I can watch it together? How many posts should I expect from you during the game on goEMAW.com?
