Why on earth does K-State have this nonsense? 


It needs to be replaced by either women's soccer or softball.  ASAP!!!

Looks like the Elmers factory is about to get some new materials.

Kansas State says it’s dropping women’s equestrian… And adding women’s soccer as a varsity sport.

We'd better sell out for the best recruiter in America and develop a powerhouse from day 1.

How is title 9 driving this? Did Kaizen Currie realize a bunch of men's sports efficiencies? Now we spent less on men's and have to match it with the ladies? Equestrian is certainly absurdly expensive to run.

I'm sure equestrian is expensive, but maybe not as much so with their BYOH policy.   Maybe thats why its getting nuked, soccer is a sport of the people.  Equestrian is for youngsters who actually convinced their daddy to buy them that horse.

I really hope the part about funding them till the end of their eligibility means we're doing the right thing and funding them past the end of the sport's status if necessary.

Did you see my post about it getting cut because the NCAA says it's not a sport anymore?

Bittersweet. Obviously the decision to add soccer is the best idea since, ever and it's long long over due. I don't remember if it was Weiser or Urick that added equestrian instead of soccer but it's finally fixed. That being said I'm gutted for those ladies who have this taken from them and I really don't agree with the decision to end a year earlier than we need to. I personally have any ties to the equestrian program, it's the only varsity sport we sponsor that I haven't watched in person. I wish we were dropping in instead of the NCAA so these ladies can go elsewhere. I guess we'll have one of the best equestrian clubs in America.


We're going to get our first natty and it will be in equestrian this year.

I was referring to why the NCAA decided to nuke it.
