Am I the only one who thinks that KSU might be getting too much preseason hype

[steve dave]

and that this is all a setting us up for a huge KITN? <--- first time I've ever used that phrase.

Don't get me wrong, I think the Cats will be good but #3 in the country, and near-unanimous for a team that loses 3 starters (and yes Colon is addition by subtraction with what is taking his place, similar to not having to give minutes to a guy like C-Energy), including a 2nd team all-conference pg, and an athletic 3 year starter in Sutton?

 

Dennis is the only significant loss.  Dom was a head case who's defensive skills were vastly overrated.  Think about what we've GAINED: Spradling, Williams, Asprilla, Southwell and Wally now has experience.


The preseason hype scares me, yes, but as a program we've earned it and it is warranted.

What have you done to earn the preseason hype? 

Did you see we sold out of season tickets?  Wow.

Only team in the state to have done that thus far. That accounts for something with these preseason voters and such.

Did you guys even have a Midnight Madness this year? I checked on ESPNU and couldn't find it anywhere.

Slap some white paint on a wall (unless there's not enough room for the NIT appearances).

Yeah, you guys will sell out eventually.  Maybe another groupon?

They're just having some trouble adjusting to life after Lew.  Under Lew, not only would they be sold out right now, but they'd be oversold.  Lew would be holding private raffles for the oversold seats with the extra money going towards the gridiron club and personal exercise equipment.

It's rough, you know?

K-State has a concrete middle school track, which comes in handy for events such as Harley Day.

Mangino lost seven straight games last year with the best QB and best two WR's in school history.  F*ck off.

WTF.  I'm the primary person here that always says it's Mangino's players and that Gill needs time.  Why call me, of all people, a douche!?
