I know there are enough of us to participate in this thread, even when our seasons inevitably go to shit.
KSU vs Western Illinois today, tip-off at 3:00 pm.
One thing I noticed near the end of the game on Friday night - we had 5 true freshman on the court, and still played sound basketball. None of them were scrub walk-ons either. While I don't think we will make a serious run at anything this year, the foundation is being laid for a solid program in the future. [Reply]

:-) You are thinking of college game day. KU fans were saying that was the reason you got game day. Not big Monday. But string together a few more seasons like the last and that argument won't hold water either. I personally like that the state of Kansas is dominating the Big 12. [Reply]

His brother did. He will sit out this year. Bryce is rumored to be joining his brother in Manhattan and sitting out this year with him. They will be able to play together next year. Arthur will have 2 years to play, Bryce 3. [Reply]

However, their father supposedly does want them closer to home and, in this case, is not in favor of Bryce's returning to the Vols.
Jimmy Hyams of The Sports Animal in Knoxville has also reported that Arthur Brown may prefer to return to Miami -- if he's welcome there -- rather than entering K-State by himself. (He's still enrolled in a juco and has not signed up for classes in Manhattan.)
Could this get any juicier? There were reports in May of a possible package deal for the brothers at Tennessee; given the continued low numbers for Derek Dooley, is this something that might still be on the table?
Earlier today, some dumb hillbilly Tennessee guy said that up until 72 hours ago he was pretty sure Bryce Brown was heading to K-State. But pretty much sounded like a homer that couldn't believe their prized 5-star recruit was going to transfer to little ol' K-State.
Oh, and apparently this is their uni's for the 2010 season.
