The Jim Wooldrige Accomplishment Thread....

......































































.... Ok, that about sums it up.

Made Ricardo Patton look like a f*ckin' genious out there today.
Good bye upper division finish. Good bye NCAA. Good bye NIT. Good bye to the good feelings.

Good Bye Wooly.

Blew 20 point lead at home to Ok. State last season with less than 15 minutes.

Hmmm. That may be a tough one to top.

Well, yeah, that's all. Don't really want to bring out the lil Wildcat homer(Saul). I'm sure nobody wants to read another who is better, WSU or KSU debate from either one of us.

I'll just say WSU better start now on a new contract for Turgeon. If they can give Gene big money while not having been further than regionals in a decade they can give Turgeon alot more than what they are giving him now. Or else, 2, maybe 3 yrs... we'll haveta say buh bye. Unfortunately... :sulk:

In this day and age, you can give coaches the world and if the better offer comes along..... it buh bye anyway.

Back to the Wooly accomplishments thread:

11 season w/o a NCAA bid. Making a stiff like Ricardo Patton look like a genious (CP spelling). 1-35 conference road record. 6-60 road record since the formation of the Big 12. Watching mediocre recruits play less than mediocre basketball.

The only thing KSU has proven is that they'll give ANY coach, regardless of prior mediocrity, a long term contract.

[Eleazar]

They did beat us twice, but other than that, I haven't seen dick from them, no clue why everyone thought they were so good (No offense, William). It isn't like they had any impressive wins. Better than us this year, sure, but that aint saying much. They've got a losing record now since the undefeated start... (against the likes of CMSU) losing conference record.

At least maybe people will STFU on sports radio about KSU being the 'most underrated team in the country' or how they are going to be in the top 25 any minute now :rolleyes:

[Skip Towne]

I think the Wildcats need Hartman back.......
I once witnessed a Juco basketball game between Coffeyvile CC and Moberly Mo CC. Aren't you impressed? Well Jack Hartman was the coach of Coffeyville and Cotton Fitzsimmons was Moberley's coach. Those were two very good teams.

Actually I am impressed! rep to you! And you are longer in the tooth than I am, cool! :thumb:

[Saulbadguy]

I don't know yet. I'll let the season run its course, and then decide. About midseason last year I wanted Jim fired, but he finished strong. If we don't make the NIT, I want him gone. Interesting side note about this game, that kind of pissed me off...

I went to the Uptown last night to see Mitch Hedberg. As I was walking out I saw Marques Hayden standing near the exit with a friend of his. He smiled and nodded at me after he noticed my K-State hoodie. I said "We coulda used you today man..". He smiled and laughed and said "Well you are talking to the wrong person. Coach won't let me play."

That kinda upsets me. Wooly has been saying Marques has migraines. BS.

[Saulbadguy]

Well, I read that Marques Hayden quit the team today. He is a Junior, I don't think he has too many options as far as transferring anywhere.

[teedubya]

how many KState Coaches, in the current streak, didnt win a game vs. KU? been at least 3 right?

BTW, Im watching the TIVO of the game right now... Ill let you know how it turns out.

I hope SIU thinks the same. Believe me, I really hope they do.
Looks like the Shuckers didn't wait till SIU and bit the big one @Bradley.

I honestly can't understand the media infatuation with WSU. They play well in a crappy conference, and people think they are cinderellas. I'd be shocked if they made the NCAA's.

[Saulbadguy]

Hey hey..a moral victory. We kept it within 20 points, and broke 40 points.

BIOGRAPHY
Tim Jankovich enters his second season on the University of Kansas coaching staff and came to KU from Illinois, where he served under current Jayhawk head coach Bill Self.

A 19-year coaching veteran, Jankovich's pedigree reads like a Who's Who in college basketball. In addition to Self, he has served as an assistant coach for the likes of Eddie Sutton, Jack Hartman, Lon Kruger, Boyd Grant and Gene Iba. His list of employers includes the University of Kansas, University of Illinois, Vanderbilt, University of Texas, Oklahoma State and Colorado State. In addition, Jankovich has served as a head coach for four years at the University of North Texas and two seasons at Hutchinson Community College.

A 1982 graduate of Kansas State, he first built his reputation as a top recruiter when he assembled teams that helped Colorado State to the winningest period in school history, posting three consecutive 20-win seasons, two Western Athletic Conference titles and three straight postseason tournament appearances. From that point forward, success has followed him throughout his career, including a short stint working with Self and for Sutton at Oklahoma State. The Cowboys advanced to the Final Four shortly after Self and Jankovich left for head coaching positions.

In his first season as a head coach at the University of North Texas, Jankovich took over a squad that had posted a 5-22 mark and recorded the second-biggest turnaround in the nation that year, advancing his team to the Southland Conference Tournament championship game. At UNT, he recorded the second-best record in school history and took his team to the Southland Conference Tournament championship game two out of three seasons. In his fourth season, the Eagles moved from the Southland to the Big West Conference.

Jankovich also guided Hutchinson Community College, home of the NJCAA National Tournament, to back-to-back 20-win seasons, posting a 50-14 record and national rankings both seasons.

One of the winningest players in Kansas State history, Jankovich was a four-year starter at point guard (one year at Washington State) and three-year starter for legendary coach Jack Hartman at K-State. In each of his three seasons there, the Wildcats were ranked in the top-20 and posted three straight NCAA Tournament appearances. A 1981 Elite Eight appearance and a 1982 Sweet Sixteen berth highlighted his playing career.

A three-time Academic All-American and honorable mention All-Big Eight player, Jankovich left Kansas State with nine top-10 career marks at KSU, including ranking first in assists per game, first in career free throw percentage (91.7) and eighth in career field goal percentage (51.0). In addition, he holds the Big Eight Tournament record for single-game assists (14).

He graduated cum laude in 1982 with a 3.63 grade point average and received his master's degree in radio/television in 1985.

Tim and his wife, Cindy, reside in Lawrence and have a five-year-old son, Michael.

[Saulbadguy]

Well, I'd never heard of Roy Williams when we hired him. Why hasn't he landed a major college HC job?
Don't know. I'm content that we won't hire a coach that has had major HC experience, but I want to hire an assistant at a top program, that has Big XII experience.

[WilliamTheIrish]

Janko is no fool. He'd never take this job.

Good try though.

Steve Henson has been around the horn as an assistant. Maybe he's the guy.

He would seem to be a good coach, for sure. Good pedigree, nonetheless, plus a KState alumni.

I was thinking that KU doesnt have any brotha asst coaches now that Norm Roberts is gone... Sure Danny is on the bench, but he is Vp of basketball operations or some shit... KU needs another brother on the bench to help recruit. JMO.

[WilliamTheIrish]

Today Jim accomplished a 16 point lead against Oklahoma with 19:30 to play.

Today JIm managed to coach OU back in the game by paying absolutely no attention to Drew Lavender. Lavender didn't even see the floor until 16:00 minutes to play in the 1st half.
Yet Jim's D acted as though he were not there. In 26 minutes of play Lavender scored 27 points and brought his team back by driving the length of the court in 4.3 sec's and throwing up a f*cking prayer ala Tyus Edney that hit the rim 3 mf'ing times before the Gods of basketball decided it should fall.

Ok, so Jim's team has dropped 6 straight and look to be fighting it out with Baylor for 12th in the conference.

There is talent here, but that talent does not play defense well. That's coaching lads.

I've seen many heartbreaking losses in long fandom of KSU Bball. Most of them have been NCAA tourney losses.

This one was the most pathetic.

Sole possession of 11th place. Ahhh............who knew it could feel this good?

[warpaint99]

hahaha............

kstate will turn it around when they get a Point and a real shooting guard. Clent Stewart and Peete are NOT the answer. If I posted that on Kstatefans they would whine all day about those players being the 'bomb'. BAaaaahhhhh.

[Saulbadguy]

I don't know what you are talking about. Fred Peete shut down Baylors best player all night, and Peete is consistently our best defender, and outside shooter.

Clent is a true frosh, and is going to break Steve Hensons freshman assist record. He just needs to shoot the ball more, and work on his D.

By the way..did Lance Harris have another TURD of a game?

Our guards aren't the reason we games. Our lack of a solid inside game, and 5 spot, really hurt us.

[WilliamTheIrish]

In the seemingly never ending search for any accomplishment, today we find Jim Wooldrige in Boulder to search for a tie breaker in an attempt to move his team out of 11th place.

In a fine display of coaching, Wooly's guys came out on fire and built a 10 point lead hal way through the first and maintained it for the entire 20 minutes, leading 39-29 at the half.

Led by Jeremiah Massey, who had 12 points and 9 rebounds in the first half, K-State shot 55% from the field in grabbing the lead.

IN the 2nd half, Jim's guys continued to shoot well and rebound and with 4:00 minutes to play pushed the lead to 16. Then Jim tried to accomplish "snatch defeat from the certain jaws of victory."

Inbstead of attacking the weak CU d with Massey, Jim chose to run melt time off the clock. This led to poor shots or turnovers and within two minutes CU was on a 12 run and had close to within 4.

K-State had a chance to ice with :09 seconds to play but Lance Harris missed both double bonus FT's and Marcus Hall drove the length of the court but missed a weak layup attempt for the tie.

Why the hell they didn't give it to Richard Roby (30 points 7-10 from 3ball land.) is beyond me. He couldn't be stopped. Scored 30 overall, 25 in the 2nd half.

So JIm has accomplished a possible better than 10th place finish, despite himself.

[Saulbadguy]

Yeah. I went to Bramlage last night for the KU-KSU game and see #53 retired, and when we went in KSU was beating CU by 15 points.

Then they announce the final score. How did they blow that big of a lead? sheesh..

By not taking the O right at CU shiot D during the last 4 minutes. Jimmy began running clock and they immediately starting going backwards. Roby was hitting everything late too. Fall away 3 bombs from the corner.... straight up contested 3's... the guy was on fire.

[warpaint99]

Woolridge needs to be fired because he 'COACHES CLOSE' games instead of 'ATTACKING'.

He has ZERO margin for victory.

I also can't stand the type of players he recruits. Seems he just tries to recruit ATHLETES and not ball players.

He has only lucked out with Massey and some with Cartier.

His guards are not guys you rely on and are streaky. Big problem there. He also didn't recruit nationally like going to California and Ny. Recruiting only local players wont get you anywhere.

[vckcchiefs04]

Uh..you call WSU one year wonders, and you are a UMKC fan? Right.
Yes.... I am a fan of a team who has never done a thing in their history and are close to going to the big dance, nothing more. WSU.... good every 20 years or so. So you can take your sensative a$$ somewhere else and cry. 4321

[Saulbadguy]

Well, ole Jim led the Wildcat and its seniors to a 73-53 THRASHING of the Corn. I wish I knew some NU basketball fans to raz, but they are all NU Football/some other team in Basketball fans. Justin Williams had the best game of his career. Figures he would wait this long to play well.

As far as Wooly's accomplishments, I suppose this one is worth noting. He leads them to their first winning record (16-11) since..well, awhile. 98-99 maybe?

[Saulbadguy]

..and K-State draws the Texas Aggies for the 6:00 game on Thursday (Session 2) at Kemper. Winner plays KU.

Has Wooldridge won a Big XII tourney game yet? Last year we got hammered by ISU. Year before that, Pasco Fiasco. I'm sure he's won at least one..I just can't remember.

Ah well, we owe the fAggies one. This game is very winnable, considering how we have been playing down the stretch (pretty good, 3 out of 4).

Its the writing on the wall. Plus some unnamed "inside" sources.

He is here to raise TONS of money, and thats what he is doing. I predict after they get the greenlight for a new FB Complex, he will be gone.

Latest accomplishment..breaking news:

Wooldridge meets quota, loses his 2nd player this year. Fred Peete is leaving the team.

Peete leaving Kansas State

Cats' guard asks for, receives release from scholarship
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
By Tim Bisel
The Capital-Journal

Kansas State guard Fred Peete has asked for and received a release from his scholarship, The Topeka Capital-Journal has learned.

Peete played just one year for K-State but was one of only two players who started every game for the 17-12 Wildcats. His departure, coupled with the loss of senior forward Jeremiah Massey, means K-State will be without its two best scoring threats next year.

Coach Jim Wooldridge didn't return phone calls from The Capital-Journal on Wednesday.

A 6-foot-4 sophomore, Peete led K-State in scoring on seven occasions. His 13.0-point average on 37.3 percent shooting trailed only Massey's 17.9-point mark.

Peete also topped K-State in minutes (34.9) and steals (62), and was second in assists (109) and third in rebounds (146).

His finest performance came in a 75-72 overtime setback at Texas on Feb. 12. He hit 7 of 14 3-pointers, scored a career-high 28 points and almost single-handedly helped the Wildcats rally from a 14-point, first-half deficit.

Peete joins a long list of players -- including high-profile recruits Nick Williams, Dez Willingham and Marques Hayden -- who have left the Wildcat program since Wooldridge took charge in 2000.

Hayden played for K-State each of the past three seasons but was dismissed from the team in February. He will transfer to Washburn this summer.

Peete came to K-State after a one-year stint at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M, where he earned third-team NJCAA All-America honors.

[ROYC75]

Poor Kitten fans, just when things were looking brighter for them.

But hey, you had a nice year....... better than years past.

[Skip Towne]

Time for a coaching change.

[WilliamTheIrish]

Time for a coaching change.

Yep. It sure was. WE might have had a chance at Matt Do or the guy at UWM, but now we're dead.

Oh well. I said last season that I'd not go until the university made a real committment to winning.

Guess this will be season #2 of no WTI at the Bram.

[Saulbadguy]

I'll still be there. Already bought my season tickets. I'm done defending the guy, but gotta stick with him. He's our coach.

[Saulbadguy]

Peete elects to leave K-State men’s program
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KSU Sports Information


Sophomore guard Fred Peete has elected to leave the Kansas State men's basketball team, head coach Jim Wooldridge announced on Thursday.

Fred Peete has left Wildcat basketball program.
"Fred has expressed his desire to exclusively play the point guard position," said Wooldridge. "He feels like this is his best position to reach his goal of playing in the NBA. Consequently, he has decided to transfer to a program where he can play the point guard position 100 percent of the time. We wish him the best as he pursues his individual goals."

"In this day and age in college athletics, transferring has become a somewhat common occurrence," said Wooldridge. "Our league and institution are not immune from this type of situation. We feel very confident in our returning players and the anticipation of success for next season."

Peete was one of just two Wildcats (Clent Stewart) to start in all 29 games this past season. He averaged 13.0 points on 37.3 percent shooting (122-of-327), including 34.9 percent (44-of-126) from 3-point range with 5.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.1 steals in 34.9 minutes per game.

Peete transferred to Kansas State last spring after playing one year at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M in Miami, Okla. A native of Memphis, Tenn., Peete graduated from Pullman High School in Pullman, Wash.

Due to recruiting obligations, Wooldridge will not be available for further comment.

[Saulbadguy]

Ok..Peete wants to be a PG. I don't think he is a PG. Why did he commit to the program in the first place knowing he wouldn't be a full time PG?

[Saulbadguy]

Keeping up with the tradition of this thread, Wooly loses another player...yet this guy hasn't even joined the team yet. Ousmane Cisse leaves for JUCO. Doubtful if Sidike Sidibe will ever see Manhattan,KS. We picked up a guard who played for Temple, and then got kicked off the team for repeated rule violations. What next, Jim?

[Lzen]

You know it's bad when a player opts to go to JUCO rather than Division I program, KSU. ROFL

Ruling? Uh, what's there to say? The schedule sucks, as does our coach and AD. The only game worth going to on that schedule is New Mexico (26 wins last year and a NCAA Tourney appearance). It's hard to believe that our schedule could get any worse, but somehow, it did. BRAVO!

Other than that, you could combine all those OOC teams into one and they'd represent the University of Suck. phuckit

[Saulbadguy]

they have three teams in kansas?
The quite unheard of Wichita State. They are KU and KSU's "scrappy little brother".

[Saulbadguy]

I figured this would be as good a time as any to bump this thread for my fellow KSU sympathizers. I went to the Basketball practice and "scrimmage" before the Texas A&M Football game. Here is what I noticed:

1. They were pretty tired after the 2 hour practice, so they didn't move the ball all that well, and were kinda sloppy with the ball handling.

2. Lance Harris is going to be the "go to guy" for this team this year. He made several nice mid range jumpers, and was physical on D.

3. Clent Stewart improved his shot. He has been working at it hard, sometimes shootin over 500 a day. Could have something to do with Mario Taybron pushing for PT.

4. Wooly was constantly yelling "PUSH IT". The starters pushed the ball up the court fairly well.

5. I think the motion offense will fit well for our athletic guards. Lance Harris, David Hoskins will play exclusively 2 and 3, while Clent and Mario will switch from the Point and the 2 guard.

6. We have no size. Our biggest guy (6'9, 250) is Dramane Diarra, who has some decent moves, but has been a year removed from bball. Serge Afeli looked raw, and undersized. Hughes was winded after running up the court a few times (again). Darren Kent did not play. Cartier Martin will provide decent size + quickness in the 4 spot, and especially provide pretty good defense against the Big XII big men. (see Taj Gray last year for an example)

Overall i'm optimistic (not saying much, I always am). It will be fun to watch the new offense. I can't wait until November 3rd...BRING ON EA SPORTS!! :cuss:

[ChiTown]

I didn't get to the scrimmage, but did Cartier bulk up at all? I always thought that If they are going to have him playing the 4, then he needed to put some weight on in his upper body. tks.

[Saulbadguy]

Not that I noticed. Looks the same to me. I thought he did a decent job at the 4 last year. Plus he was injured quite a bit last year as well.


BTW, they have extended the student section, and moved it over to section 19-20 (ICAT), and 21-24 (Student GA). It used to be just sections 18-22. They also have GA available for non-con games.

[Eleazar]

Will the football or basketball team win more conference games this year? ;) :p

He's been nothing, if not injured during his 2 years at KSU. I like his play, but the 4 spot is very physical. That's why I had hoped he would have bulked up to have the physical endurance to play that spot all year.

My starting 5 come B12 play:

1. Mario Taybron
2. Lance Harris
3. David Hoskins
4. Cartier Martin
5. Dramane Diarra/Tyler Hughes.

First off the bench: Serge Afeli

My buddy at the KSU AD says Taybron is the best PG he has seen at KSU in a long time. Not to mention, he has a very smooth stroke from the outside.

[ChiTown]

Will the football or basketball team win more conference games this year? ;) :p

Heh, that's easy.

It will be a tie.

[Saulbadguy]

So as of right now, we have no recruiting class for 2006.

[WilliamTheIrish]

Ok, another fast start to conference play by Wooly's boys.

Saturday Wooly's lads went to Ames and never got off the bus in the first half. Down 14 at half, the Cats roared back and made a game of it.
With 1minute 10 seconds left in regulation, the Cats had the ball and a chance to take the lead.

The result of the posession? A turnover. The 23 of the night.

But wait, ISU misses the front end of a 1 and 1. Cats rebound and still have a chance to get the lead with 30 seconds left.

The result? A turnover. The 24th of the night.

The final result? A loss by 2 on the road.

Tonight, the home opener of the conference season and the Cats continue their stellar play by turning the ball over 25 times and scoring exactly 2 points... yes, you heard right.... 2 points in the first 10+ minutes of the second half.

It was beautiful.

We were pounded like a noob in the prison yard.

But hey, we broke 40 points.

Nice job Wooly.

[WilliamTheIrish]

Oh, and we shot .229 from the field tonight.

Kudos Wooly.

I made a mistake.

KSU was held without a FG for ... get this... the last 9:48 of the first half, and then the first 11 minutes of the second half.

20+ minutes without shooting one in from the field. No alley oop. No dunk. No layup. No tip in. No put back. No bunny. No short j. No medium range j. No trey. Nothing. Zero. Nada. Nyet.

That my friends is some sweet, sweet basketball.

Thanks Wooly.

Just bring them Kittens to KU Saturday..... the streak rolls on.

Wooly should drop his resignation on John Wefald's desk at sunup.

I pledged after the 04 season that if he were not canned I would not spend any money on KSU Bball.
To this day I have held myself to that promise.

It's time for Wooly to go. NOW.

Although I somewhat enjoy your misery, I really don't want K-State to be down like that. They have been very competitive in the past. Cotton Fitzsimmons and Jack Hartman come to mind. Cotton came from Moberly Juco and Jack from Coffeyville (while I was a student there) Juco. I wonder why they don't try to mine that shaft again? They couldn't do any worse than they have just picking coaches at random. Lots of top Juco coaches have had success at the next level. Nolan Richardson won a NC at Arkansas for example. They need to do something different than what they are doing.

Sorry lev, but I fell for that 'aw shucks' crap when he was hired. 3.5 mil later, no post season, so real success at all, and the guy runs players off at a rate that makes me dizzy.

Being a good guy doesn't necessarily relate to being a good coach. I don't think he can relate to his players, but I think he has outstanding people skills, which was the main reason Wefald salvaged him last season: He's a good guy.

But last night after the game, he was asked what the players' emotions were after the game. He shook his head and said he couldn't really say, that he didn't know. That speaks volumes that in 5+ seasons he can't read a player's emotion after a game, especially one where they got absolutley embarrassed.

That said, I think you'll get your wish, and he'll be out very shortly...possibly on his own tems. He's a good guy, though, and I wish him success wherever he goes.

Woolridge sucks. He is the 3rd best coach in Kansas with the 3rd best team in Kansas.

What is Woolys record vs Turg?

[Saulbadguy]

Worst effort i've ever seen. Probably the worst game i've ever attended. Jesus ****ing christ.

At least now I can watch the KU-KSU game this weekend and just laugh. We really have no chance in hell.
:shake:

Can't believe I went through the ultimate high, and the ultimate low, in the span of less than 4 days. Will this save Wooly's job?

A few more perfomances like this one, and it just might. Get us 8 or 9 more wins like this one Jim, and i'd be happy to keep you around.

..and then on the other hand, you have KU fans. I can't wait till tommorow at work when all of them will be crying like someone shot their dogs, ****ed their mothers, and poured sugar in their gas tanks.

Then they will analyze the entire game minute by minute, talk about Bill Selfs choice of suit, and try and guess what Darnell Jackson ate for breakfast by studying the smell of his farts.

...but, the K-State fans are now perfectly content to keep a poor to awful basketball coach who has produced aboslutley nothing in his time at the school because his below average to poor team beat another below average to poor team by four points, even if his team finishes 9-7, 10-6 in a very weak conference and AGAIN misses out on postseason play.

...all the while, the K-State fans are still trying to convince themselves the KU football program hasn't caught up with their own.

All in all, it's good, though. It's now a legit rivalry in both sports for the first time in a VERY long time. I'm all for that.

Oh, i'm definately not sold with Wooldridge at all. If he can produce 8 or 9 more conference wins and get us in the tourney, i'm sold.

The KU football program has gotten better and i'll readily admit that, while the K-State football program has had a couple of down years. Terry Allen really killed the KU football program, but it seems like Mangino is actually getting D-1A prospects, unlike TA. Well, that is when he cheats (hehe). All joking aside, i'm afraid for my Cats this coming year when they visit Lawrence.

Finally, I totally agree with your third paragraph.

When you say "Scoreboard," do you mean the 12-3 shalacking KSU put on KU in KSU STADIUM this year when the Hawks didn't have Swanson, their only productive quarterback this season, available?

Or...do you mean the 31-28 game in Lawrence in 2004. Oh, I guess KU won that game. Probably don't mean that one, do you?

Scoreboard is only valid when current. 31-28 means nothing. 3 points over the youngest, most inconsistent KSU team in years. And it was last year, AT MEMORIAL Stadium, in front of the first sellout crowd its seen in 20 years.

This year, KSU currently has Football, and MBB scoreboard. KU has Volleyball (first time in 21 tries). We'll see how the rest of the year plays out.

[Saulbadguy]

By the way, leviw, it brings me great joy that you give K-State all that money each and every year. Keep up the good work.

Dr. Wefald thanks me everytime I see him, too.

KU also has a bowl game in the current year. KSU does not. Doesn't really apply to "Scoreboard," but it's telling, nonetheless, and should count towards something.

Also, I'm content to give KSU the thumbs up on the half the men's basketball and football and just leave volleyball off the chart. Because, if we go volleyball, soon we'll have to start throwing out women's hoops scores and rowing formailities; it's just not worth it.

I'll give you the Bowl game. It was good for the program, even if was a pre-Christmas bowl game, that had poor attendance. Plus KU had to rely on an NCAA rule change to become bowl eligible. I'm pretty sure if K-State had NU and ISU at home, we'd be eligible as well, but it wouldn't matter, the season wouldn't have been a success.

If you want to throw away the Volleyball and rowing, alright. How about the KSU-KU-MU triangular coming up?

I agree. It's FB and MBB. That's all I care about. And baseball too. But we haven't really challenged for the top half of the conference save once or twice.

The women's sports just don't mean anything to me. Never have. Never will.

A pre-Christmas, poorly attended bowl is better than no bowl by any program's standards, I'm sure. Less we forget, K-State had its golden opportunites at home (Colorado and A&M) without NU and ISU.

That said, the triangular is huge, no doubt. I have no idea what sport we're looking at here, but I'm sure the implications are mind blowing.

Should be a nice crowd for both. Although, there was a nice crowd at the NU disaster, too. It will be interesting to see how they respond after Saturday with these two crucial, winnable home games.

Since you asked:

K-State fans are happy about one thing: A giant gorilla is off our backs. How that translates into K-State fans are perfectly content..blah, blah, blah is a stretch of your vivid imagination. I've been around long to know the glory days of KSU MBB. One victory over the in-state rival doesn't change the thought that Wooly must go.

Yep, Wooly was at the helm when the streak was ended. It's a great win for him. But overall, it's like having a cherry atop a large pile of dog feces and calling it Sheridan's Custer.

This team - because of the way it's coached - could very well give back all the momentum it just built by losing to aTm next week. That's the reality of the situation.

Personally, my mind won't be changed unless Wooly manages to garner an NCAA berth.

Your football analogy is more ridiculous. According to you, one football victory by KU in 12 years and a 12-3 loss at Manhattan this season means KU has "caught up" with KSU.

Using that same train of thought, this victory by KSU must mean KSU is on equal footing with KU in MBB.

Saying it don't make it so.

[DJay23]

Haven't gotten a chance to post on KU related threads this season so far because I've been dealing with a crazy now EX girlfriend. I wasn't dodging the inevitable.

Congrats to all the 'Cats fans this year. Streaks are bound to come to an end at some point. I'm more concerned with the streak we have in your building, but anyway. You got that monkey off your back, good for you, doesn't matter the state of either program a win is a win and there were several times when K-State almost got us in our better years.

As for KU, I hope this all pans out. I won't stand for a mediocre, Mizzou like team year in and year out. Self better get these young pups up to speed in a hurry or he'll be coaching in Conference USA or something.

[WilliamTheIrish]

I'm not about to give Wooldridge another year if this is all he can muster. If we fall flat on our faces the rest of the season we need to have some fresh coaching ideas in the program NOW while we have some good talent to coach. If this is TRULY a step forward, I'll GLADLY admit I'm wrong. For right now, I'm still skeptical Wooldridge is the right guy for the job...

I don't know what your "I'm old enough to remember the glory days, blah blah blah" statement has to do with anything. Fill me in.

In any case, I wasn't signaling you out as one with a new-found-Wooly love. I just know this team is less than a week removed from one of the most embarrassing losses it's seen on Wednesday night. Then, the team rallies to beat a medicore KU team days later--a game in which they score 18 points in the first half. And now, Wooly is fine in A LOT eyes around here.

But, you know as well as I do, that win bought him the rest of the season, at least. And, with Wefald calling all the shots around here, who's to say what else it saved him. It's medicority at it's best, and it flies around here for some reason.

As for football. Open your eyes. Look at what went on the past 11 seasons before KU took the game in 2004. Now look. KU has been to a bowl two of the last three seasons while K-State hasn't been to a bowl in two seasons. Like it or not, Mangino has the program on the right track and has finally cleared most of the filth Allen left behind--and there was a lot.

On the other hand, K-State fell of big the last two seasons. Snyder lost his players. Thankfully for the program, he recognized it and got out. But, they hire a no-name coach who has never coached a down of football as a head coach. Yes, he's doing a great job with the recruiting trail, but will that translate to victories. Who knows?

In my eyes, it's been more of K-State falling off than KU gaining ground. But in either case, it's evening up, and there is no denying it. It's hard for K-State fans to deal with, like it's hard for KU fans to deal with the fact that their basketball program might be in trouble if these recruits don't pan out quickly.

You're obviously free to have your own beliefs, however.

"Bought the rest of the season"
What the hell else choice do we have? You don't just fire a college coach mid-season because of poor perfomance. There is nothing to gain from that, at all. Let him finish the year out, and then decide what you are going to do.

A poor performance? Look, you didn't see Wooly after the NU game. He was done for. He had no answers, and he wasn't looking for any.

I didn't say it had to be a firing. It could have easily been a resigniation or a mutual parting. And, with a loss at Kansas, nobody would have been against either one; not Wooly, not Wefald, not Weiser.

If that would have happened, assistant coach Jimmy Elgas would have stepped in and the team wouldn't have suffered much. He's the one who kept trying to convince Wooly to go to a zone in the KU game. Finally Wooly listened. The rest was history. He'll have a head coaching job not to far down the line.

In any case, you can't tell me after last season's embarrassing debacle, with Wefald calling ALL the shots, that Weiser doesn't already have Wooly's pink slip filled out and ready to be handed out as soon as the pres gives him the "okay."

[Saulbadguy]

The win was great. But the elixir of whipping the other in state university will wear off quickly if Wooly drops another at home to aTm.

Jim,'s latest accomplishment is going on the road to Waco to take on the Baylor Bears. That's right, those Bears.

The Bears that are 2 seasons removed from murder and mayhem among the players on the team. Loser of 20 in a row. The team that played no OOC schedule.

Well tonight KSU went to Waco and JIm coached his team to a miraculous OT loss to the Baylor Bears. Three times blowing big leads.(8 twice. 11 once.)

Fine job Jim. You're almost 4 million dollars into embezzling your contract from the university. Please, just take my money and go. I won't hate you. I promise. Just. Please. GO!!!

Thanks,

Great. I was looking forward to this bump. What's funny is we will probably beat OSU and ISU, giving us renewed hope.

[Hammock Parties]

Id have to say that Kstate, when it comes to basketball and football, is one of the most bipolar universities i have ever known. i mean you can beat us Hawks(at the fog) and then you can go to waco and lose to maybe the worst team in the history of the BigXII. I really thought maybe kstate was at a turning point, but then i realized it almost looks like they arent... Definitely got the talent on that team this year id say. also, football, cant ever wint he clutch games that you could have won... maybe like purdue in the same season you guys were in the running for the national title and i cant remember if that was the year michael bishops name was being thrown around for heisman also. but yah, want to watch a flakey team, watch anything that has to do with kstate. Not bashing the wildcats by any means, just pointing out what i have noticed.

I've heard whispers that he is having health issues.

I've also heard that he will resign before the end of the season..some say he will resign soon.

[WilliamTheIrish]

I'm sick of missing the NCAA tourney.

[leviw]

I've heard whispers that he is having health issues.

I've also heard that he will resign before the end of the season..some say he will resign soon.

He was asked about his health situation after the game on Saturday. He said:

"It's not an issue....yet, anyway."

Then was asked again in a more round-about way:

"It's not an issue. Not an issue.....yet, anyway."

Read what you want into it. I really do think he has health issues, hopefully not serious ones. But this sets up so perfectly. He can resign at the end of the season claiming his health. Weiser will be able to shake his hand and smile, all the while looking peachy because he didn't have to fire the coach who, at least to fans, has a genuine personality and is a down-home, good guy who put his heart into everything he did at K-State but just sucked throughly as a coach.

Fans who wanted Jim out long ago will take pity in the health issue and wish him the best. We all will when he takes an assistant job under Tim Floyd at USC.

Everybody. I mean EVERYBODY will come out of this deal, which could have gotten ugly, smelling like roses. Wooly, Weiser, Wefald and the fans.

Though, if Wooly really is severly sick, it will be sad no matter the case. I don't believe he is severly sick, though, otherwise he would resign right now. I'm guessing it's stress-related ulcers or something along those lines. But, at this point, I'm not sure.

[Saulbadguy]

Sounds good to me. I'll be surprised if we hire someone who doesn't make the fans say "Who?"

Of course, that's usually the case.

It still makes me sick that Weiser will do the work of finding and interviewing candidates, but Wefald will be the one who makes the hire.

But as of now, it seems that strategy worked just fine with Prince.

What horseshit.

Wooly is going to finish the season. That's the only 'rosey' situation here.

I'm not picking on you, but if that's the scenario in the AD's office, they can all kiss my ass.

I agree with you. I like your outlook. You're not satisfied with this mediocrity that has persisted on this campus within the athletic department for years now -- not just on the men's basketball court, either. The thing is, there are a lot of people around here who are fine and dandy with everything.

They like having these great-character kids with the good-guy coach. The team creates very little racket as far as getting in trouble goes off the court. They win enough games and spark enough hope to draw in some fans for big conference games. They usually play KU close 1 out of 2 games a year. It's enough to bring a half smile to their faces.

Man, if I were you, I'd be relentless. Drop e-mails to Weiser, more importantly Wefald, and let them know your feelings. You won't get a response, but you will get read.

Just heard that Wooly is having back surgery, and will not be coaching Wednesday night. Jimmy Elgas as interim coach. I wonder if this is it.

[Skip Towne]

Yea, I've got health issues too.

I'm sick of missing the NCAA tourney.
I'm surprised you even know what it is.

[Skip Towne]

Sounds good to me. I'll be surprised if we hire someone who doesn't make the fans say "Who?"

Of course, that's usually the case.
Not always a bad thing. We said "Who" when KU hired Royboy.

Wooldridge To Undergo Neck Surgery Wednesday



MANHATTAN, Kan. – Kansas State head coach Jim Wooldridge will have surgery Wednesday to remove a bulging disk in his neck and will be unable to coach the Wildcats against Iowa State that evening, the school announced Monday.



Assistant coach Jimmy Elgas will serve as the team’s interim head coach in Wooldridge’s absence. Elgas is in his sixth season at Kansas State, including his fourth as an assistant coach.



“I have been suffering with this condition for much of the season and it has become more acute over the past 10 days,” said Wooldridge. “The doctors have informed me that without immediate attention that this condition will only become more serious and permanent. I hate to step away from the team at such a critical juncture of the season, but I believe that I have to take measures now to correct these health issues.”



Wooldridge, after undergoing tests by team doctors in Manhattan, was referred to a neurosurgeon in Kansas City on Monday, and surgery was recommended. Wooldridge is suffering from a “significant disk protrusion” at the C3-4 vertebrae in his neck, which is creating pressure on his spinal cord causing numbness in his upper and lower extremities. Doctors also discovered a disk bulge and a small bone spur at the C5-6 vertebrae.



Wooldridge’s return to coaching will be dictated by the speed of his recovery and a medical clearance from his physician.

Well, I read that Marques Hayden quit the team today. He is a Junior, I don't think he has too many options as far as transferring anywhere.


MU could really use a big guy. Hayden was good down low I thought. Hell a 3rd grader is better than Kevin Young. How he was the 2nd best recruit in FL aside from Amare Stoudamire is beyond me. There just seems to be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy too much of a talent drop off from Stoudamire to Young.

Good luck finding Hayden.

Hayden was arrested in Topeka last time I checked. He was set to become an Ichabod, and then quit the team. Or something.

Bulging disc huh?

They are bothersome as hell, but his coaching has been a bigger pain in the azz than his health.

Jimmy Elgas is the man.
