I'm legitimately confused about the number of K-State media at the fcs championship game, I don't get why they are there.
A true up and comer story

https://twitter.com/riley_gates/status/1081587670869004290?s=21

basically every single writer that's ever worked at the kansas city star is from similar small-town kansas and has covered real national championships, super bowls, nba finals, golf majors, etc. and their articles were read by countless thousands, not several dozens.

i shouldn't be taking shots, though, the highlight of my brief/awful sports writing career was covering a pair of chiefs games during the herm edwards era.  :Yuck:

I know he’s said other dumb things, but surely that’s a tongue in cheek tweet right?

I think he was dead serious. I mean, observing K-State media groups, they all acted like this D2 national championship was the biggest game in K-State's history and was huge for publicity and recruiting. The only FBS coaches being talked about Saturday were Klienman, Dabo, and Saban!

Many of these same media members laughed at KU for talking about Les's National Championship, and legit FBS championship.

It's all been embarrassing and small time if you ask me. It was the pinnacle of the last month of K-State/K-State media's push to validate the hire.

eff Beloit.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Should K-State just claim the 2018 FCS National Championship?  Imagine that on the back of one of the ICE jumbos.  :love:

Well technically he won a Natty as a KSU head coach, so I’ll allow it!
