So I'm looking at the media guide online . . .
« on: August 08, 2014, 07:24:29 AM »
Typical K-State media guide.

Bowls, all conference, ring of honor, color reno's of Vanier 3.0 . . . progressing along . . .

Page 19-20:  Homegrown heroes (about locally recruited and developed kids)

Page 21-22:  Walk-On tradition

Page 23-24:  Next Level (NFL)

Page 25-26:  Exceptional Coaching

Page 27-28:  Strength and Conditioning

Page 29-30:   Academic Support

Page 31-32:   More Academics

Page 33-34:   Special-Special Teams (Very Sean Snyder oriented set of pages)

So here I'm thinking "Well that's a little different, the next pages will probably be like - Dynamic Offense, Elastic Defense etc. etc"

Page 35-36:  Facilities

Page 37-38:  Future Vanier Football Compex

Page 39-40:  Gameday in Manhattan

Page 41-42:  Adora Cats in the Community

So at this point I'm thinking it's like one of those random insertion things (I'm sure there's a technical media/journalistic term for it) and as I continue to flip through and surprise!!  They'll be that "dynamic offense" and "elastic defense" set of pages tucked into the bios, or stats, or last season review and pop up when I least expect it.   

Nope, just the typical media guide stuff:  Bios, stats, records, how to get to Manhattan (Airplane obviously at the newly expanded jet capable airport) more K-State fluff etc. etc. 

Congrats Sean Snyder and K-State Special teams . . . you and your crew were the only phase of the game to be singled out in a special section of the 2014 K-State Football Media Guide!!

Sean Snyder HCIW.

Well, hmm, seems that the Special Teams had their own section (and only phase of the game) last year and the year before.

Just never recall any of that kind of thing before Sean Snyder started coaching special teams, have never seen any special section for any other part of the game in the media guide.

dax i don't think you should be looking at the media guide unless you're part of the media


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

just saying it's intended for the media, sometimes as fans we cross the line and i think this is an example of that

But a lot of fans buy the media guide.

Does the media guide line have a ref with a can of temporary line marking spray tucked in his/her belt or fanny pack?   That seems kind of arbitrary.

bootleg sales of the media guide to non-credentialed readers is how we got into this mess in the first place. 
the SID is really to blame here, going all the way back to the Erick Harper years.

I understand a second truck carrying media guides got hit last week.

To be fair, name pronunciations are the only thing that really matters in those things.  :peek:

well, to be honest we have not been well-known for anything BUT special teams nationally since the late 90s/early 00s.
