Imagine the ridicule K-State would receive if K-State unveiled drawings for 2 major facilities projects, one of which had a press conference and full blown press releases. Only to turn around and have neither of them built? What if K-State went and put up a giant banner and announced to the world that it was going to build a big fancy project and even go so far as to tell everyone on that banner the thing was going to be built and opened by a certain date? Only to never move one pinch of dirt, nor pour a single foot of concrete for the thing??
Sadly for lil Bro over in Lawrence, that has been the case.
Then to top it all off, imagine if K-State athletics wanted a building that technically it can't build by NCAA rule, and subsequently went over to Topeka and tried to get another department at K-State to take on the debt to build the building, only to be told no??
