No, just an announcer that everyone adored (before being MAGA was a thing), who had recruiting connections through his brother, and his dad had coaching ties with K-State.

I'd be fine with Shane, but only after being rejected publicly by a couple of big names.

Yeah, a lot of his recent Twitter takes wouldn’t have aged well for the many on here wanting him. That’s the funniest thing about time.

And he lost a free throw bet to my buddy and ran off before paying the 1k.

But 2012 Doug was a fresh face former player who announced big12 games for ESPN and helped popularize the OOD nickname.

Looking back the protest was really embarrassing.  Wish I hadn't been a part of it, but i was young and angsty and horned up for k-state sports.

agreed BUT breaking the sink was an all-time great moment of emaw bbs'n history :emawkid:

it was not supposed to be a protest of oscar's hiring, I had announced we were having a rally for Doug a few days before and Currie announced the hire/press conference at the same day/time. I think the "protest" was funny and it was understandable because it came on the back of that horrific press conference with currie where he talked about the Dillon's receipt etc. It was not about oscar at all.

I'm gonna miss oscar, but it was time for him to go.  Liked his presser last night.  You naysayers can cram it.
I agree

Bringing everything but the grill is a common mistake throughout the history of gE.

What say ye cats?

https://twitter.com/Jpullz0/status/1502037325534138373?s=20&t=yp2hVv6aEofWaZmFoQQGTQ

I will go on the record as saying that I really, really enjoyed the days when bramlage had good reason to be called the OOD. And i liked when our players were JYCs. Shane was a JYC, so I feel like he could make a team of JYCs.

I'm trying to think critically here and ask myself, "if we got back to the OOD, and our players were JYCs, would i care if we didn't make the tourney most of the time?" and i feel like the answer is yes i would care, but it would bother me a lot less because i at least enjoy the gameday atmosphere and the style of play.

Although to be fair...the only reason it was the OOD was because the on-court results were there. If we sucked and never made the tournament then the excitement would have tempered accordingly. So, aside from the first season maybe 2, the team would probably have to be showing signs of improvement or else the fans will not maintain the level of excitement worthy of the OOD moniker.

What i'm saying is, I stan as long as his guys are scrappy mfrs

is it really that hard to imagine the collection of dudes in this gif winning the b12?


man those were some good bbs'ing days. every game spawned a new rich new layers of memes etc that would be enjoyed for weeks.

Nah, the board was already dying. It peaked during trash can gate, it never recovered from March 31, 2012. We threw all of our eggs into the oscar Weber was going to fail basket. We lost posters right away you who couldn't handle the torrent of negativity and being called Nazis. oscar winning the Big 12, then losing in the first round just cemented the divide. The next 5 years was a slow bleed due to apathy.

Lol at trash can gate. IIRC it was Wacky who broke the news on gE like 45 minutes before the game because he "heard it from some suits" and everyone was like WTF does some suits mean and Wacky was like "Someone who is really important, duh"
