Beasley to enter draft???

[Old Dog]

Not a shock to anyone if he does (news conference this afternoon) but I know that the kid has had a heck of a time making a decision.

I wasn't being an ass to him, I just pointed out a point of reference. People all year have bagged on Beaz as a selfish player who only drove to the basket, when in reality he dumped off the ball a lot and had a decent game from outside the paint as well.

People know Durant has a reputation as an outside shooter, I was just using him as a point of reference.

Whats wrong with this board is all the homerism and rampant snide remarks that aren't based on any sort of reality.

EVERY player that goes early has one, and many that stay have them too. He's probably mad he didn't get a press pass.

Not every player going pro has a presser. Plenty declare without one. The presser was done for KSU in it's never-ending attempt to seem relevant, far moreso than for Beasley personally. Beasley was kind enough to say a couple of things about the school Hill decided he'd play for and also let the country see their admins without tears in their eyes, ala when THuggins jilted them after his 6 month sentence in Manhattan.

KSUck's 15 minutes of fame just slammed closed upon them, and it would be in their best interests for "Dirty" Bill Walker to move on so the program's image doesn't take any more hits than it already has. That said, a "fresh" start under Frank Martin doesn't have much of a ring to it, does it?

KSU just keeps stepping in it, and under Martin will continue it's spiral right back to the bottom of the Big XII, where it feels at home. The gamble to hire Thuggins, illicitly hire Delonte Hill away from Charlotte so Beasley would come to KSU, the unwillingness to let Beasley out of his LOI when Thugs left, their turning their heads the other way with Walker's technical fouls and pissing on the court, ended up doing very little for a program that is at the top of the list for recruits that have either grade issues or legal problems - or both.

Sneaking into the tournament while looking like a bunch of fools doing and being viewed as one of the most desperate programs in the country isn't much of a reward.

some of what you just said has validity, but very little. lots of typical bullshit from smallcockchief.

Beasley was NEVER refused release from his LOI. Beasley never ASKED for release. No one at KSU EVER said that he would NOT be released from his LOI. But then again je never ASKED to be released. See a pattern?

What proof do you have that Dalonte Hill was illicitly hired away from Charlotte?

Pot meet kettle? KU never recruits players with legal issues? hell, your FB team just gladly signed a kld with a record of statutory rape. KSU dismissed a player from the team immediately when a similar charge was brought forth. KSU on multiple occasions has passed on players with troubled pasts.

And aside from KU Rump Rangers with crimson and blue glasses, not many people in the world view KSU as such a joke. Many aren't even familiar enough to care, but those with real untainted views think we've done a decent job at our programs rebuilding attempt.

lastly, **** you you little bitch. you come into EVERY KSU thread whining and squawking. you're an embarrasment to the reasonable and sane KU following.

Sorry dude. Wasn't meaning to aim that directly at you. It was just an observation of how a lot of people on this board tend to do things though.

It just seems pointless to even have an opinion on this board though.

no problem...I will listen to constructive opinions from anyone, but like you said, so many people around here have such polarized views that half the shit that dribbles out of their mouths is complete fabrication and fantasy.

Good luck Beaz. It was great.

and being on Probation while winning a National Championship seems to be the standard at uk. Congrat's, cheaters!

Plenty of people see KSU in the light I've set forth (among them, see Whitlock's volume of articles that spell out how KSU sold its' soul for a couple minutes of fame). Hate the people that dare expose your desperate Presdent, former AD and a portion of your fanbase for what they are.

So many grapes have tried to live off the "holier than thou" Bill Snyder days, and have taken pot shots at KU any time they wanted. Now reality is setting in - KSU is no better than a UNLV in its' heyday. Some KU fans like myself find it deliciously ironic that your little foray into big-time college athletics exploded in your faces, while completely undermanned with pussies leading the way i.e. a jock-sniffing "President" leading his milk-toast former AD around by his short-hairs.

You can't have it both ways - if your school is going to play dirty, you're going to have to live with the consequences, especially if much of your fanbase still wants to pretend the reason they suck at sports is because they do it "the right way".

The days of KSU doing it the right way are over - the days of sucking aren't.

By the way - LOVING the National Championship!!!!!!!! GO Hawks!!!

You should love a NC. But it doesn't make any of that science fiction you posted true. Using JW to "expose" KSU is great stuff. I'm glad it inspires you to post similar fluff.
And it's milquetoast, dumb****. You and RR have a tenuous grasp on the language. You really should try a basic english course.

and how exactly did it explode in our faces? we made the tourney for the first time in 12 years, and won a game. we had a better Big 12 record than any recent season. We haver some great kids playing for us, and one of the best all around players and person who is sadly leaving us for an NBA career and multi-multi-millions of dollars.

I'm sorry, where is the horrible thing that happened to us? Sorry to disappoint you smallcockchief.

oh, and only a fool would use Fatlock as source material and sustantiation. he'll write whatever gets tongues wagging, no matter who it's about or how true or false it is. he's a joke.

[Brock]

I don't get the point of acting like a dick toward one of our fellow state colleges. I get it during game week, but right after KU just won a championship? You guys are douches.

Agreed, Hawchief is, and always has been, a douche

It's the phognet groupthink. You can tell the most astute, perceptive hawk fans follow it religiously. ReeRun and hawkchief. It doesn't get any more "milk toast" than that.
