Very nice! Thanks for posting.
Add this to the list of our first-class athletic facilities.

If someone gave KSU Athletics $100,000,000 to be used on facilities, I do not know what to spend it on. That is how good our facilities are in 2023.
I am old and I can NEVER remember when the facilities were in such good condition.

I'm old, too, and KSU's facilities have NEVER been as good as they are today.
I'm glad we have some rich, generous alums.
With a huge gift, my suggestion would be to add some minor sports like softball for women and wrestling or lacrosse for men.

Softball and wrestling would be good adds. I would also bring back Equestrian. It wouldn't seem very difficult to bring back men's tennis or add men's soccer since we already have the facilities in place, unless the men play on a different size field (Shows you how much I know about soccer).ToledoCat#3 wrote: ↑July 11th, 2023, 11:29 amI'm old, too, and KSU's facilities have NEVER been as good as they are today.

That being said, unless we have a big benefactor waiting in the wings, staying at or just above the minimum number of required varsity sports makes sense at a time when other schools are cutting sports to save money.

KState won’t be adding sports any time soon - if ever. Any added sport would almost certainly be a money-losing proposition. The current non-rev sports are intended to meet Title IX requirements while minimizing costs. With the ever-increasing costs of facilities and current programs, combined with the limited (less?) revenue generation from the new Big 12, I’m pleased we have what we have.

Another site said our new coach already has three 2024 commits and four for 2025. Any idea who some of them are?
You can usually find this info released on volleytalk.com board (maybe not super timely, but usually within a day or two). sometimes you can get comments/insight, but more so for the top programs which we haven't been for a while.
