I agree that media covering college sports should generally be positive toward players and direct most negativity toward coaches. That being said, I don't think the media covering K-State sports has a negativity problem.

Headline writers and schedule-makers are rough ridin' over the 'cats.

Kstatesports should hire that Bills photojournalist to be a KSU fan.

I was waiting for one of the writers there to apologize with that silence.

I’d love to see someone produce a single piece of negative media from those that cover kstate during the Klieman era

I think the writers should all get together and send him a giant, industrial-size tub of cottage cheese, complete with a bow and an "I'm sorry" card.

i don't really think the comment was as bad as smellis' tweet implied. it's not great, but it's also not that bad.

Yeah, this is a big yikes from me. Maybe it wasn't the best idea to add a huge buyout to a former D2 coach that thinks the Manhattan KS media is a bunch of meanies.

I don't see anything wrong with this but was this in response to a question?

Yeah - question was basically: given how much you talked about how close the team was over the offseason, how are they reacting to the adversity they're facing?

I think it sounds pathetic. But who cares?

He can say whatever he wants. But the tiny Kstate media coverage relative to blue bloods is softball city.

Kid In the Hall · « **Reply #739 on:** October 19, 2021, 03:05:26 PM »

K-State is probably in the bottom 5-10 of all power 5 teams in terms of difficulty in navigating the media landscape.

There's also a big difference in Klieman saying that players dealing with negativity in the media, social media, etc. is tough for a college student athlete to handle (very true) and outright asking members of the media to help by not being negative.

I see what you did here, well done.

I'm torn because I don't think Klieman is doing well so I'd love to crush him for this, but I also hate how sports media victimizes themselves every time they believe someone has questioned their integrity and want them to shut up.

Don't forget he's a rough ridin' squawk.

Goal #5. Be Tough. MENTALLY and physically.

MakeItRain · « **Reply #744 on:** October 19, 2021, 05:28:00 PM »

meh. I feel like he's trying to send a message to his team through the media and it got away from him a little bit. Wasn't great but who cares. It's not like he made a murder joke on national television after killing two people.

I peaked at KSO and loved the meltdown. some of those folks need to get a grip, but I enjoyed the entertainment.

I disagree that 18-22 kids can’t handle negativity

Not perfect, but not earth shaking. CK is just not ready for this. When was the last time in his career he went through such a savage and prolonged ass kicking?

Why should we excuse Klieman's recruiting again?
