Thank goodness for video evidence, or the Gestapo agents would get away with all of their crimes.

^^^ This seems political. Ban this clown boy.

All great points!  I am sure there is pressure on him from the NLI donors. I know the key players talked to the president.

Quote from: Captain Quette on February 15, 2026, 06:41:24 PMFrom friends of the program, fwiw:

1. Shaka very protective of his image, it is a priority for him
2. Going into this season, he believed his culture and development would generate success
3. Is well liked by players and player's families and uses this w re recruiting
4. Is feeling the pressure of this poor season and understands he may be out if next season is also an abject failure
5. Realizes he might not be get another P5 job if he is fired by Marquette

This is supposed to be his forever home. Analysts have said it for years now that he and Marquette are the perfect pairing. Hopefully this decision is a rejuvenation for him and he is here for a long time because of the success he has and sees as sustainable for the future.

Once right after a commercial aired promoting "Tang! The drink of the astronauts!", the live coverage from a space capsule had an astronaut who said he was going to try some. "Yuk!" was his response when he drank it.     

One of my favorite responses from a commercial. The other one was when a boob popped out of the dancing model in a live TV ad. The ad was quickly cut, but not before the announcer said "the preceding was brought to you by the American Dairy Council".

Good pull! Loved that stuff as a kid, but actually liked Ting even more!

Quote from: tower912 on February 12, 2026, 05:56:15 AMK-State has other problems (assistant coach) and their fanbase is pissed about spending huge bucks in the portal only to get a subpar product.
Tang may not be in a K-State quarter zip next season.

Bump.

Wow. Officially official. Can't believe they actually did it mid season.

Don't see that all that often.
