We have another chance of that this season but it kind of hurts when players like Martavious are just sitting at home enjoying their summer. :curse:

A better question is how much difference would there be if we had beat Nebraska or Missouri in football and played in B12 championship, beat our rival texas and played in a big bowl.

this and all the other 'no' answers. If bball were important, uk would be like the 25th most popular school in the cuntry, and mentioned repeatedly in everday convo. Not so. We really do need synds to succeed. Then Gpat or whoever (sean?) the HCIW is.



Ooh, nice outfit. What is that, Dacron?

maybe what fatty is saying is that if we made the FF then a ton of people would have become KSU cats fans and our television woth would have grown like 100 times what it is today and then other elite conferences would kill to have us join them.  dumbasses.

Because you are now a loyal fan of a team that was in the final four last season?  :facepalm:

The only people that watch the final four are basketball fans (e.g. like you, they already have an affiliation to a team) All that any one fan can take away at that point is an increased awareness of another team.

LOL at a a ton of people becoming fans after a final four appearance. Especially enough to make such a difference that elite conferences would kill to have us join them. Jesus.

Quality of play among Big 12 members comes and goes in every sport, but what won't change about Kansas anytime soon is that our state does not constitute much of a television market.  TV executives don't fall all over each other to reach the "Kansas" audience because there just isn't that much there. 

If you read ku message boards, they're busy stroking themselves blue over the athletic and fund-raising prowess (as compared to the purple pussies), yet they fail to grasp the same fundamental that will govern our role in any conference realignment scenario--# TV sets.

Short answer = no.

LOL at a ton of people not becoming fans after a final four appearance.  Did you see how adorable our team was last year?  If I were a fan of some other team I would have switched affiliations to the KSU cats last year, I think all K-State fans would have.  This seems plausible to me.

no kidding.  paul moscow?  more like paul dumbass.  notice that every team that's been in a recent FF have been linked to elite conference expansion talk.

ku got mentioned today on ESPNU re: conference realignment talks.

How they got mentioned? How they were not and WOULD not be involved in anything significant regarding any power conferences (specifically how nobody would ever want them). Basically it was a foregone conclusion that they would be the last man in in any discushens.
