K-State Slate: 6.6.11

It was two-and-out for K-State baseball in the Fullerton Regional. On Friday, Stanford hammered the Bat Cats, 10-3, and Illinois (of all freaking teams) delivered the knockout blow on Saturday.
K-State got another pay raise last week, as the Big 12 decided it will share 76 percent of the league revenue equally, rather than the previous 57 percent.
The Big 10 championship game will be played indoors at Indianapolis' Lucas Oil Field through 2015. The Big 12 championship game will be played at random venues across the Great Plains, often in the cities of Dallas, Austin and Norman, with an occasional road trip to other venues possible.
If you haven't seen it already, check out GTcat's post over the weekend about playing athletic director for a day.
At some point I'll stop posting stuff about Jim Tressel, but BHGP's discussion of Tressel's cheating was too good to skip.

the BHGP comments are interesting
and funny.
The main argument of the story is good, but the blogger goes a little bit further than necessary. And I can understand that considering if it was a BigXII(-2) school, we would probably do the same.

I don’t get it the hatred towards it. I’ll admit it – most comments (including myself) don’t use them properly. I’m not going to make a huge hissy-fit about it though.
Surgeon General's Warning: K-State-Mizzou basketball may increase the risk of high blood pressure. Please consult your doctor prior to watching any of these games.
Yeah, i probably don't use them correct either.
But it’s nothing that really bothers me. I agree you need them if you are having a gif-fest.

Why do they help with Gifs?

Dallas? Did we invite SMU in and I missed it?

I think he meant the random game here or there that still gets scheduled at JerryWorld
Or more than likely that one game played at that one State Fair in that particular city.

Speaking of Ohio State,
I’d like to start calling us THE Kansas State University, if only because it would probably piss off KU a little.

Kansas State University, the magnificent
I think that would piss off more people.

After seeing this, tell me again how KSU doesn't have a contract with either GM or Chrysler (because of their Plum Crazy color) for endorsements?

So I hear we got this kid as a ‘preferred walk-on’ and he seems like a pretty BA running back. Does anyone know anything about him?
Here's a highlight video for him:
Runs with power, has good moves, but seems to lack elite level speed. Great to have on board as a walk on though, obviously.
Potential special teams ace--at least at first?

Probably just the eternal optimist in me coming out
But you’re right, you can tell he’s not top shelf talent, but watching what I did, something tells me there’s something special about this kid that I just like, and feel like he has a good chance of being successful ala WeePo/Rock Cartright
"Nor yet in Dell?"
Absolutely.
I think he could definitely be one of those guys who is good despite all the individual factors (size and speed) indicating otherwise. He certainly has impressive highlights.
And I agree with KSB – let this kid pave his way on special teams and see what he can do. One never knows, but this guy definitely seems to have much more potential than the average walk on, so that’s fantastic to have.
