All you have to do is make it to the play-in game in the Tourney.

@wrwlumpy

This makes Bruce the longest tenured interim head coach ever!!!!

KU should have agreed to pay his salary to keep him at KSU, if it had proven necessary!!!!

@wrwlumpy Well, they did win an NCAA game, after all. High water mark of the Squeaker era at KSU.

And did it with spare parts!

Long live Liberace...this means we won't have to mobilize the "save Liberace" campaign for a few years.

@DanR He was hired on March 31, after the end of the 2011-12 season.

Love it, those try harder banners are going to look awful good for years to come

@wrwlumpy It seems as though KSU is stuck 10 years in the past.

That's a clear sign that KSU doesn't think they can do better than Weber. They are in a state of trying not to get worse rather than trying to get better. I don't think they believe they can get better (or that they are willing to try to get better). They will be between 4th and 8th in the Big 12 as long as Weber is there. They won't bottom out completely, but they won't rise, either.
