Re: Portal 2024

Several of the players we are linked to seem to have had academic problems or troubling personal incidents. I don't think that we want any troubled players would bring to the program. I don't want another affair like we had this past season.. Coach Weber took chances on a few players that were tale...

Re: I want Coach Tang to stay. I think the world of him.

Lets see. We were 3 points away from making it to the Final Four. Keyontae played 18 minutes in that game before fouling out. That is not winning the National Championship but seems like you could say it was competing for the National Championship. REGARDING RELIGION. Both Massoud and Iyiola are mem...

Re: Is the NBA a realistic thing for top American college players

13 of the 60 players in last years first two rounds of the NBA draft were foreigners. 4 of the top 30 were foreigners and one of those was from Canada and Jamie Vasquez was from Mexico but played at UCLA.
It is a world wide game but more of the NBA players still come from the US.

Re: 2024 NCAA Tournament

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/boxscore/_/gameId/401638626 The Houston OT win over TAM to me was the game of the Tournament so far. TAM was down 10 with less than 2 minutes to go and got it to OT. 52 Fouls called, Houston 28 TAM 24 Alabama vs Grand Canyon was also a great game to watch.

Re: KU Defense Vs Gonzaga

Sorry. I did not listen to the video. Just watched. Total collapse by their defense.
Hard to explain how that happened. Few might be a pretty good coach.

Re: Tomlin

Please STFU and don’t speak for me. This is a terrific message board with 99% normal K-Staters that love our programs, coaches and tradition. EMAW 💜 Put them or I suspect this one person on ignore. It makes the board tolerable again. I have no idea why they aren't banned permanently. All they do is...

Re: Tomlin

I started to write a comment. Then thought better of it. All of this is water under the bridge and not worth discussing as nothing has changed.

Roster construction over the next couple of months is the important thing in KSU basketball.

Re: Portal 2024

I do not disagree. I was pointing out they both turned it over too much. Having your point guard and main ball handler turn it over 71 times in 18 games is not good. And part of the reason we finished third in the league and had 7 losses. Barry Brown and Stokes combined for 60 tovs in 18 Big 12 gam...

Re: Portal 2024

Nowell was a unique player. But he had 71 tovs in Big 12 play last year. Cam had 60 this year. Both turned it over way too much. Respectfully, I don't believe you can compare the two players. Nowell was the point guard & main ball handler for 38-40 minutes a game; while Carter at best a secondary o...
