Right, however I was under the impression that this rule (D1-D1 transfer) was waived when the player's recruiting head coach, or head coach in general, leaves/quits/gets fired/retires ?

Is that wrong?

That is generally just with incoming recruits, and there is no "rule" mandating that a new incoming coach grant a release to the recruit.

BB doesn't need to get a release to play at KSU. He can not be a scholarshipped player this year, but he can walk on at the in-state tuition rate - which is no biggie for one year. This is what I expect to happen. We shall see.

Cool, thank you.

Can he not go to a JUCO route just for academics and not waste an year of eligibility in athletics, if the cost may be too high for him to enroll in Kansas State?

Just curious what are the rules if that were to happen.

Sure, but his eligibility clock ticks no matter where he is at. He'd essentially be redshirting at a Juco vs KSU. So, it makes more sense to just walk on at KSU, be a part of the team as a redshirt, and play in '11.

Valid point.

Geez, why so sensitive about Thuggs? Dude didn't even finish his cup of coffee before he raced out of Mancrappin after 9 months, to greener pastures in Morgantown, WV.

UNI.

I really don't see the point in not releasing someone that won't be there. Except if like bad PR.

#1 in the ****ing nation.

Like I said, he'll be walking on, paying his own way this year, using his redshirt, and will be a RS Soph in Fall '11. It's all good.

Think the NCAA force Tennessee to release the scholarship?

Doubtful. That's probably not a good route for the Browns either. They need to just move on and get down to business at KSU. jmho

Well, Bryce can easily pay off his student loans if he were to get drafted, which I'd imagine he would, since he's too talented not to. So, your theory is the walk-on redshirt for one year might be the best solution.

Also, what can you give us about Masoli?

I really haven't heard anything about the Masoli situation. I don't see that as a legit option.

Cool, so basically just rumors at its finest. Some schmuck on whb810 website was saying that Masoli and K-State would be a good match. Whenever u get to Manhattan, we need to hook up. First cold one is on me (assuming your intel works out, heh) :D

Will Snyder retire once we get Bryce Brown?

I mean, the cupboard will be "well stocked". Will he have calmed the waters enough?

Well, I think the key is that they can't **** up like they did with Prince. And I thought, at first, it was a solid hire, until it went south. So, who will replace him this time?
Posted via Mobile Device

I think Masoli and KSU are a perfect fit. Hpefully the Ole Miss business is him exploring options. I don't see at ALL what benefit he has walking on there, to be a backup in the only year he has left.

Come to KSU, on scholarship, and start. Parents can be assured Snyder will keep him out of trouble and provide good NFL advice.

K-State 2010-11 Football Uniforms, if I am not mistaken.

http://vmedia.rivals.com/UserMedia/F...12/O240405.jpg

Allright, maybe the Masoli to KSU rumblings has some legs. Just got off the phone with a "source", and there seems to be a legit chance of this happening by the end of next week. Wow. Not sure how the F this all transpired. I'm going to dig into this a bit more.

BTW, BB to KSU is a done deal. The only thing they are waiting on is a potential release - which looks like it isn't going to happen. Walking on looks like THE best option at this point.

Well, wonder how legit the Masoli situation is. I just figured it was one of those pull-out-of-your ass Nick Athan rumors.

So, BB to KSU is finalized, regardless of the scholarship issue?

He's coming to KSU - regardless of whether he gets his release. He's done at UT.

Good to hear.

Let us know about the Masoli situation. If he does come, that'd be one scary backfield with Harper, possibly Masoli, Smith, so on.

Do the Browns get to play this year?

No. Both of them will have to sit out for a year.

Little Brother to follow..................soon.

TIX are already bought.

Where are your seats? I'll have to check where mine are at.

I'll be there as well. IIRC my tickets are near Sauls...

Chi,

Looked up Brandon Harold, and noticed that he is now a RS-SO. Did he happen to be granted a medical redshirt?

Edit: Well, looks like I found my answer.

http://cjonline.com/sports/football/...se_top_recruit

Sucks about losing Adam Davis though.

WTF was Briscoe doing? It looked like he was preparing to play patty cake.

Even though he'll be cleared just in time:

Kansas hoops recruit Selby still not cleared by NCAA August 5, 2010


http://www.cbssports.com/collegebask...leared-by-ncaa

Eh, they do this with all hiigh profile players with ties to discredited handlers.

Hey Saul, I was perusing goemaw and see that SODJ has "BANNED" under his name. What happened?

Just a joke. He is not banned.

You bitches better start apologizin':D

Bryce Brown to enroll at Kansas State

Former Wichita East standout running back Bryce Brown intends to enroll at Kansas State and begin classes later this month.

ESPN.com reported that Brown plans to begin classes at Kansas State on Aug. 23. Brian Butler, an adviser to the Brown family, confirmed the report Wednesday night.

Brown's move to Kansas State has been rumored for weeks.

Brown was one of the nation's top recruits coming out of high school, and spent his freshman season at Tennessee. But he decided to transfer this spring after former coach Lane Kiffin left for Southern California.

Tennessee coach Derek Dooley has said he will not grant Brown his scholarship release from the Volunteers. The Brown family is trying to overturn that decision, but whatever happens will apparently have no bearing on Brown's decision to enroll at K-State.

Without a release from Tennessee, Brown will have to pay his own way for a year before being put on an athletic scholarship for the 2011 season.

Bryce Brown's older brother, Arthur Brown Jr., transferred to Kansas State from Miami (Fla.) and is sitting out this season.

old news.

:LOL:

Grats on Bryce Brown, bundle of stickss. FML.

GRCOAT

I initially thought he looked a little slow... kinda had the whole Larry Johnson "gimme-a-step-or-three-to-get-going-then good-luck-bringing-me-down" style. But a few minutes in, he flashes some speed on those catches in the flats and when he sprints around the pile. He definitely shows some power, which is pretty nice.

I still think he needs to run lower; it looks like he stands straight up when running, and I think that will make him vulnerable to some big hits/injuries.

But for a freshman? These are some damn fine highlights of things to come.

Whooooooooooooooooooooooo! oh yeah baby.

I read today KSU is one of only 2 schools in the NCAA ever to have both the #1 recruit in football and basketball. Only Ohio State has had both. And we did so in a 3 year span.

Just want to say that Brian Butler blows. How many more Kansas kids is he gonna plan on stealing anyways?

is this based on a new development?

Nah, just can't believe that Josh Moore would listen to him and think that going to the NFL right now would have been a good choice.

Had Moore stayed in Manhattan, I think he would have been much higher than a 5th rounder at the end of the 2010-11 season, assuming he stay healthy throughout the season, of course.

Did anyone get tickets in the mail yet? The lady told me they would be shipped out Aug 13 still haven't gotten mine.

I've had season tix for about a month. I hear single game tickets were mailed this week.

You guys may have seen this already, but an interesting tidbit from BSAC on goemaw.com:

There's no reason we shouldn't be undefeated going in to conference play. Duke or Marquette game (@ KC) could be a toss up, especially if its Duke. UNLV (@home) and Florida(@home) are the other two games that could be hiccups.

And we should go 12-4, 13-3, or 14-2 in conference play, give or take a game.

I'll take less than 6 losses into the Big 12 tourney, please.

Stumbled into some goodies while killing some free time. I'm sure there are some guys on here that would know who this guy is.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...U/IMG_0684.jpg

Surely somebody can tell who this player was.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...U/IMG_0705.jpg

Edit: I apologize for the poor lighting, but the quality work was, at best, "average" I was fortunate to get a decent shot, despite of poor lighting.

that Bill when he played at William Jewell?

Incorrect.

No idea.

Anyways, FAMILY REUNION in less than a week!

I'm sure Chi or WTI would know, so I'll wait for them, or at least someone. Heh.

I would not have gotten the Gene Keady pic. Too used to seeing him with a combover.

Vince said, "We Gonna Win" when they hired him.

Well, he got that part right, the problem was the administration didn't help him much later during his time. Of course, didn't help him when he got into trouble against Pepper Rodgers (KU coach) that got K-State in probation at the time.

KITN

After talking for weeks about how this would be one of the one or two chances to see the Cats on TV this weekend, boss decided to inform me today, that tomorrow would be working till 4 or 430.

Game is officially a sell out.

Congrats, Cat Fans. Now, let's hope we have a good showing on the field.

:ksu:

I would kindly tell him to go **** off, and quit. *shrug*

I wish life were that easy. As it is, I'll hit the record button, hope the DVR works and try to enjoy the game.
