When did Dax become such a conformist lemming for the K-State athletic department?  From "disassociated" to "knee jerk apologist."  Sad, really.

he's not apologizing for the AD.  he, unlike many here, refuse to buy the party line that K-State is in the wrong.  you know, that is one of the boxes available to be checked.


Not releasing an athlete when the coach they were recruited by gets fired is flat-out wrong.  Dax is riding the same train as Fitz and the rest of the K-State herd who buy Currie's excuses hook, line, and sinker.

the thing is, that's your opinion. dax has his.  maybe he just doesn't want to assume judgement without knowledge of the situation, there's nothing particularly wrong with that. the idea that the AD isn't 100% wrong based on anyone here's limited knowledge is no worse than the condemnation on display in this thread.  #highfive

So no one else can decipher what the hell dax is talking about?

Tap out noted.

Thanks for all the "info" on APR though Captain Obvious.

This has nothing to do with APR.  :shakesfist:

Do you understand his ever changing viewpoint on Leti harming our APR? No one else has attempted to decipher for me what he is saying so I'm starting to think he was just full of crap but not wanting to acknowledge that he was called on it.

It is not incredibly dumb for Currie not to grant the release if the player is going to damage the APR scores.  I know no one here has all the facts, in fact, everyone here and ESPN has the absolute bare minimum level of facts . .  but possibly they wanted her to complete the semester and hopefully do well?

It's a simple set of questions.  Why should K-State just automatically give in to her demands if she is part of some package deal for a former K-State coach, and why should K-State just automatically give in if her transfer is going to damage K-State's APR?

The high APR of women's sports is absolutely immaterial to the discussion, why take a hit because some player wants to bail possibly as part of a package deal with a former coach? 


I was fully aware of WBB's APR, I've been following APR, the Federal Graduation Rate  and GSR for years.

Again, the status of the rest of the team is immaterial to this discussion.

I see all your stuff over on the phog Beems.  You're the very definition of a ku propagandist.  You're a walking, talking, typing ku glossy brochure who touts the ku party line at every possible opportunity . . . with thousands of posts on a K-State bulletin board no less.  You're the last effing person to start referencing anybody else as an apologist.   

MIR keeps talking about the team APR score, or individual academic accolades.  All of which is completely irrelevant to this discussion.   Individual student athletes make up the APR composite.   Why should K-State potentially (Possibly, maybe) take an APR hit because one player wanted a transfer (possibly as part of a package deal) 12 minutes after the previous staff got fired?   Reasonable question. 

Why should K-State just immediately acquiesce to the transfer demands of a current player who may have been part of a tampering situation?  Yet another reasonable question.

K-State's PR department has this thing right where they want it. Just waiting for it to snowball just a bit more before unleashing our secret bit of information and making ourselves look like studs probably.

some tampering cat burgler was sneaking into the KSU house but KSU was on red alert and heard them coming. KSU stepped out of bed, winked at the sleeping wife like a complete stud in control of the situation, grabbed their biggest gun stashed in the night stand for this very situation, and confidently blew their own dick off.

She signed a NLI which is binding for one full academic year (two full time semesters). It's a contract binding you to an institution. She signed the contract, K-State paid for a year of her education and for her to play basketball. Completely reasonable for K-State to not release her. She signed the agreement, end of story.

But, apparently Jay Bilas and all these other dumb asses don't think there should be any accountability on the part of the student.
