Everything about this whole thing is so Little Brother. So weird.
and yet, so predictable
I have to say it's been a long, long time since we've seen surlytimmy here. Things got real sad under Bruce, his favorite coach ever.
I am sure he wanders over here frequently to see if we're paying the proper amount of respect to KSU.

And they still put your biggest game of the year on ESPN+

Road games are more important than home games when trying to win a conference title.

This is the fan base that chants "Fuck KU" at nonconference football and basketball games. And at bars on random nights.

Why do you think surly is bringing up football time and again here? It's because his basketball season is over. He got the only win he cared about. On to the next.

Students don't do that anymore. Tang put an end to it. It was nonsensical. The hate stuff is not healthy. This is basketball and football after all. Most of us enjoy friendly banter, not boorish behavior.

He stopped it at the last game they played against KU. Meaning, it has still happened at every game against KU.

And do you really want to back your own record up on not saying anything hateful about the University of Kansas, it's athletic program, its coaches, the city of Lawrence, etc.? Give me a break. You're on record.

"us"

And also: trolling opposing teams' message boards - and the more obscure ones at that! - is definitely on the boorish side of the friendly banter <--> boorish behavior spectrum.

I thought Tang took the KState job because it was the school that offered.

I have always been grateful to the city of Lawrence for helping us during the tornedo that hit a decade ago. It is how Kansans should act toward one another. Your assistant city manager was a good friend while holding that job here. Tang has stopped the f'KU chant.

that's when he spoke directly to the issue after the game: expect to win. he's deeply religious. it's really absurd. the biggest fans of the f'KU chant are KU fans. the irony is deep, isn't it.

We can all agree on something. Baylor is a trash institution.

So what happens if it doesn't stop? Even after you said that stopped it? Gawd shall smite them? What's even weirder is thinking college kids are going to stop it because the new basketball coach ordains it. Sure. That'll do it. Who freaking cares.

that's probably a bit strong but he's running a faith based program, much like baylor's drew in that way.
