I love all the KU fans talking smack about the

loss. Bring it. Just like we do to you.
It just means weโre in their head and thereโs nothing to the โwe donโt care about K-Stateโ line.
Welcome to the rivalry.
Maybe Iโm old school, but if a kid opts out of a bowl game, heโs not traveling with my team and standing on the sideline. I respect that you are doing what you feel is best for you. But when you make that decision, you are now part of youโฆnot us.
The officials are not

I donโt think you understand...all of those guys were Honorable Mention All Conf their Sr year for their HS baseball teams. Thatโs a serious talent pool of people who were almost kind of good, and likely would be in MLB but for their HS coach.

Letโs run a list of myths about
#kstate
that were debunked this year in FB and BB:
1) you canโt recruit to Manhattan
2) canโt win at
#kstate
3) canโt be elite in both FB & BB
5) fans wonโt support 2 programs
Turns out we can be pretty damn goodโฆand should EXPECT to be!
Ish Massoud gets my vote for most improved player since the season began. Started with a reduced role. Then asked to step up after NโGuessanโs injury, he didnโt pout. Heโs battled and responded. Great to watch his growth.

donโt call the Prez. Call the ticket office. Donโt email the Prez. Email the Ahearn Fund. Donโt show up at the PrezRes. Show up at Bram. Show your love for this team and KSU, not your rage at others.
Whatโs next? 1-0
Neither. A delay of game happens when you prevent the ball from being promptly put into play. That didnโt happen here. As to tauntingโฆwhoโs he taunting? The ball? ๐

You know what I love most about this
@KStateMBB
team? They donโt care about who they are โsupposedโ to lose to. They just finish every day 1-0. They donโt worry about yesterday or tomorrow. Itโs all about today and all about us.

I love being a program where Iโm proud fans rush the field when they win against us. Because some fan bases whine about it. Congrats Mizzou. You were better than us today.
Can we start a GoFundMe to pay for whatever fine
@CoachJTang
may get to speak his mind in the presser about these officials? I know
@GarthGardiner

Iowa State fans boo as Jerome Tang wipes sweat off the floor. I think theyโre just jealous our coach has a shirt loose enough that lets him move his arms.

@PatrickMahomes
Kirby, Iโm gonna have to ask you and the rest of the planet to please stay at least 6ft away from Mr. Mahomes until further notice. Thanks.
To all the KS kids going to ๐ฅtryouts tomorrow: this kid picked up her first college win today. She didnโt pitch a single inning as a FR in HS. Itโs about who you can become, not who you are today. If you donโt make varsity, thatโs not failure. Itโs growth. And growth is good.
We volunteered at a vaccination clinic in Lawrence today. My face hurts from smiling so much. People crying out of joy. Kids crying as they brought their parents through the line.
If I had to pick three words to describe it, theyโd be gratitude, joy....and hope. We can do this.
Fact: Bill Snyder is one of the greatest football coaches to ever live.
Fact: Bruce Weber has won just as many conference titles at

Great job Cats.
If we win tonight and they cancel the rest of

Iโm not going to let this game define it. This was an incredible year. It hurts, but Iโm so happy and excited. Thanks

Teach your kids to dream. Because they might just come true.
@SarahFuller_27
If they hadnโt been cut from their 8th grade B team, theyโd be in the NFL.
I feel sorry for their kids who they will try to coach and burn out by the 5th grade.
At a baseball tournament and one of Willโs buddies is staying with us. I woke up this morning and this was the first thing I saw when I came out of the room. The best things we get from sports have nothing to do with sports.
Listen to what
@CoachJTang
is saying. If you want to be better than KU, then beating KU canโt be your goal. Itโs important, but itโs not everything. Tonight was awesome. There are bigger things for
@KStateMBB
than tonight. Sat is the most important game becuz itโs the next one.
Jerome Tang says he expects this type of crowd to support K-State basketball every game. If fans love the Wildcats, it shouldn't matter who the opponent is inside Bramlage Coliseum.
What an absolute joke of a call. Only in AFH is that a flagrant one. I donโt think officials decide games. But thatโs about as close as it gets to happening.
Former K-State shooting guard Missy Heidrick serves as a basketball analyst for television & radio, and is a contributing correspondent for The Next. A prominent face in womenโs hoops in the Midwest, Heidrick discusses her passion in this Q&A.
Story:
The legend still lives. I still hold records for most points scored in warmups at several Big 12 arenas. Iโm glad that Porterโs Bar still recognizes this greatness 20+ years later.
Molly gets to see her grandparents a good amount. But she rarely gets to see all four of them at once. At Sr night that happened. This is the first pic of the four of them together with her since she was born.
The best things we get from sports have nothing to do with sports.
This dunk was incredible. But can we also talk about the pass from
@MrNewYorkCityy
? Across the goal, over the top of a double team, and right on the money. How many players can deliver this pass under these conditions?
I always laugh at people who wonโt use their real names on Twitter, but call out student athletesโ performances. These people are a joke. If you want to call someone out, at least sign your name, cowards. You have no clue what these kids do.

Show up at Baylor Sat and dominate. Want MORE than just beating KU.
You have a chance to do something special. Something no B12 team has done in almost 15 years. Be proud. But stay hungry. Go be what you can be.

broke the

single season strikeout record today. She finished the reg season a perfect 10-0 with 106kโs.
Sheโs backed by a great D and big bats. Proud of her and this team for finishing the regular season 17-3 and winning back to back EKL titles.
Thereโs a last time for everything. 12 yrs ago this week, we finished Mollyโs 1st season. Tonight, I drove her home from the fields for the last time. Molls, Iโve treasured every second of your journey. Thanks for letting me be a part of it. Letโs make next week at PGF the best.
I hope these young
#kstate
players now see the difference energy and effort make at this level. When you donโt have it, you can get beat by anyone. When you have it, you can beat anyone. If they can bring this level every game, theyโll open eyes.
I tested positive for C19 last week & have been isolated for 10 days. Pls reach out to those who live alone. Itโs been mentally tough to be isolated in the same house w my family. I canโt imagine what some have gone through alone since Mar. We all need each other, more than ever.

Am I the only one who feels that videos like this dangerously minimize the deadly threat tornadoes present?
โWhy do I need to go to the basement? Those people in the car were just fine.โ
Okโฆjokeโs over. It was fun and all, but we can stop pretending this whole โgraduationโ thing is actually happening. We need to stop. Iโm getting worried itโs real.
If I had set out a year for eligibility issues, been at the center of an FBI investigation that resulted in 3 Lev 1 allegations, incl lack of inst ctrl against my school & a show cause for my coach, then was suspended 12 games for fighting...Iโd lay low. But hey, you do you.
As I just said on the

has played their best game yet. Theyโve had spectacular moments, but I donโt think theyโve put it all together yet & they have a starter out. If they stay focused, they will only get better

Some people will look at the save by the goalie to win the game. But what he does afterwards is the real win and exactly what this country needs right now...
PLEASE RE-TWEET. This kid and his sentiment deserves to trend....
Neighbors had a great idea last night. Kids canโt play together but they each have a hoop in their drive way. So they played HORSE. One would yell the shot across the street, and the kid had to try the shot oh his own goal. Found a way to still play HORSE, even if not together.
If there is anyone who deserves good things to happen to them, itโs this kid. She has endured success, failure, injury, doubters and about everything else. But she never stopped believing in herself and chasing her dream. Canโt wait to support the Lions and see her journey contโฆ
Nobody should have to apologize for kneeling for the anthem. And nobody should have to apologize for standing for the anthem. It really can be this simple.
One of my favorite things to do in my life is watch basketball with this beautiful and crazy smart woman and talk about the game.She usually teaches me a lot.
