Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

lol…..no, that is not what that means.

This feels like it’s hard for you.

Actually that's not what it means. after looking into it, the ASU athletics department received the subsidy from the University. Thanks for the effort though.

It is funny though - people see ASU $52M in the hole and it's "they're in it to win it!"

We have a deficit and they think we're going to cease to exist.

UConn ahead of its Time with subsidy. I wonder if all the media heads will mention how Arizona St can’t compete with a big subsidy and if that is a worrisome sign,
Expand ...
No, they will instead, say that it shows the commitment that the state has to Arizona State competing at the college athletic highest levels.

Then, the next story will talk about how UConn has a deficit...

So it's only been 50 years since you've lived in Big 12 country. You're really up to date. I live KC right now you rube. I've ridden tons of bike races from Salina eastward.

You don't have to be in Western KS to see Sunflowers. And Manhattan is still surrounded by an empty Prairie. The drive into Manhattan off of 70 is sobering.

I had no idea you were in KC. Was just out there last summer. If I had known I would have bought you a beer and extolled the virtues of Joe Fagnano!

Loads of Sunflowers off K-10 between Olathe and Lawrence. Never thought of them as a western KS thing. Fishy should have said "wheat". Corn is Iowa and Nebraska.

I'm somewhat partial to the Flint Hills and tallgrass prairie, although that's 50+ miles south of Manhattan. What the hell road can ride on east from Salina? Old 40 or whatever?

I imagine there's some buyer's remorse about UCF. ACC ended up needing SMU football. Should UConn be in one of them, yes. We've said it for a long time.

All that chatter about the view of cornfields that the presidents of so-called "B12 crap schools" can see from their office windows, and then somebody posts this in another thread. No doubt the irony escapes you folks, but here's living proof that it's alive and well in teeming, metropolitan Storrs.

I can't believe you are using the fact that you live in Kansas as a flex.

Wait until you find out that we have cows. I’m not sure claiming some significant insight about a land grant university with a school of agriculture having a corn field is the Winning argument you think. So does Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan State, K State and every other such school.

Sorry, but I'm not the one who made disparaging remarks about ag schools. That was Fishy. He called them crap-schools in Podunk settings. Not sure why he'd make a remark like that. Sour stomach, maybe.

Nah, he said that about Houston UCF and Cincinnati. None of whom are AG schools.

UConn is literally an ag school too.

Mostly Mission Hills, a few other Johnson County towns, some near KU and KState, some Wichita aeronautical types, and some massive farm owners??? Otherwise …???

The people aren’t any dumber or smarter than any other place else in the United States on the whole in the metro area.

And many of the “rural” areas are quite a bit more affluent than most people realize.

My Uncle's log cabin house in the Flint Hills might remind some of the house in Yellowstone.
