deBruce meeting with media tomorrow at 4:00

So it's safe to say not one reporter asked him one single question of substance in 40 rough ridin' minutes?

It's been four years since J Mart covered the Cats. 

We've come a long way.

holy moly

this is baffling. at least admit you understand why the question is being asked.

[wabash909]

Lol at you if you think there is any chance in hell he gets fired within the next 3-5 years.

Yep.  We're in it for the LONG haul with oscar.  He could literally go winless in conference next season and keep his job.  This over the top damage control campaign is simply setting the groundwork to justify the failure next year.

Currie is touring oscar's recruits around the BTF for God sakes.

I wish KC had an NBA team.

[catzacker]

We need a columnist, not a reporter, to step up.

Jason Whitlock isn't walking through that door.  Mellinger will write some piece where he admires KSU for giving oscar time.

I honestly don't think that's true. I mean, look at what happened with Leti. It looked like Currie and co. were going to stick to their guns, hell or high water. Then all of the sudden she gets released. With really no explanation that made any sense whatsoever. I think John Currie is just absolutely horrible at presenting K-State in a good light, and building any kind of goodwill with the fanbase (or whoever the hell he needs to be building goodwill with at the time). My guess is that oscar is gone after next year, and John Currie supports him until the bitter end, then all of the sudden he's fired and nobody can really figure out what changed.

He, probably intentionally, misses the whole point and the rattles on more five minutes about 20 different things just to ensure the topic is dead.

Mellinger actually thinks oscar can X & O it too. It's concerning.

That's already been tried. There's already ku and KC won't support two "pro teams"

A Whitlock-style carve up of oscar would be enjoyable.

You don't need a reporter or columnist to make these people's lives hell.  You want accountability from oscar, so have some accountability for yourselves.  Get out there and make it happen.

With that attitude, seems EMAW's best days of basketball are behind it as well.

i can't remember if i ever told you about the a.d. employee that mentioned you to me, not knowing that i know you.  based on you demanding accountability at a catbacker event in kansas.

it's a proven method that gathers attention and attracts notice.

[Pete]

Someone mentioned online me to me at a Catbacker event one time, was pretty LOL.

I don't remember you telling me about that, but I forget lots of stuff.  I'd love to hear about it (again).

It's time to be loud, time to be rowdy. Go cats!

The final account of oscar Weber is not going to be dictated by oscar Weber. It's not going to be crafted by professional PR wonks. It's not going to be pretty, but it will, at long last, be honest.

I bet this will be about a new summer basketball camp for grand parents and grand children, or perhaps to raise awareness for Earth Day.

ZERO CHANCE this is about how half his team doesn't like him.

any AD with a competent PR team would ensure your prediction is correct.  so, i'm guessing this is a "hey oscar, get out there and defend us and score some points with those goEMAW types while you're at it".
damage control 101 taught by King DeBruce the Master

and it will fail miserably and he'll say a bunch of things that further embarrass us, etc

Too bad we don't have that.

ya that's my point.  but these idiots think they can calm the waters with a poorly written letter from the ad and a bumbling coach standing at a podium in front of the media.

it's almost like we knew what was going to happen this afternoon.  and this season.  and next season.
this is all been so obvious from the beginning when oscar was hired.  i'll always be mad at myself for actually giving these dickheads a chance.  live and learn i guess.

question for the combo fans.  how can you go to our football games and support what really matters most to currie, if he doesn't support what matters to you?  it's quite the conundrum. 

[Rage Against the McKee]

The media questions weren't that bad. They generated a whole lot of gold in oscar's answers, and that's all you can really ask for. The tucks aren't dumb enough to buy that.
