Recent tweets from a K-State student downplaying the Black Lives Matter effort and the tragic and senseless death of George Floyd are disgusting and totally inappropriate and not reflective of who we are as a University or our Athletic Department.
My hope is the next time there is an opportunity to support an increase in teachers salaries, with what is going on now with everyone having their kids at home, that we all appreciate what teachers do for our youth and support that effort for an increase.
Seven years ago today,
@KSTATEADGT
was formally announced as the next AD at K-State. Needless to say, it’s one of the most beneficial moves ever for this athletic department.
Today is a great day as we welcome four new members into the Big 12 Conference. The additions of BYU, Cincinatti, Houston and Central Florida further positions us well into the future as one of the leading athletic conferences in the country.
Hey hey stop what you doing and give our marketing team some love for this! This had me more hype than Rihanna at Super Bowl or Janet Jackson malfunctioning! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️💜💜💜 y’all are the best!!!

Couldn’t agree more. A selection system that needs to be changed so the main decision point is not just RPI.
@KStateBSB
deserved to be in a clearly a regional team.
Pretty awesome K State Saturday. 5 All Americans in Indoor Track Champs.

One year ago today I started my first official day as a member of the K State family. It has been an awesome year and looking for many more to come. Thanks to the K State family for a warm welcome to the entire Taylor family.

I want all of our Student-Athletes, and especially our Black Student-Athletes to know that I heard you, I support you and I am here for you as well as our Coaches, Staff and Kansas State University.
Congrats
@MrNewYorkCityy
what an honor it has been to watch you play and we are fortunate that you are a Wildcat. Your future is very bright. I can not ever thank you enough for the impact you have had on our program.
Congratulations to
@caseytayyy
for graduating from the University of Minnesota with her Masters Degree in Sports Management. We are so proud of you. 👍👊🎉
Sure anytime. We had a great run to the Elite 8 and got beat by a very good Loyola team but could not be more proud of our players and how they represented K State with pride, class and hard work and our Coaching staff as well for their hard work as well.
I want to thank our K State students for setting a great example of being COVID safe at our home games and wearing their masks. Thanks so much. We will see you at the KU game in a couple of weeks. Keep wearing those masks and staying safe.

They are not reflective of our administration and goals. We are committed to listening and supporting our black athletes, black students and members of our black community and taking positive steps in the matters of social injustice and racism.
My heart aches again for our Black Athletes, Black Students and for our Black Community for emotions they are going through after the shooting of Jacob Blake. I want everyone to know we have their backs and stand with them against racism and social injustice.
We appreciate our fans being patient as we work through all of the various details and scenarios of playing sports this fall. These are unprecedented time with extreme fluidity, and we are making every effort to be as expeditious and cautious as we can.
Very Grateful for my time as a Kansas State Wildcat! I poured my heart and soul into this program along many of my brothers! What an honor to represent Kansas State University the past 5 years! Thank you to everyone who believed in myself as well as this team. 🙏🏼
What an amazing man who has had a tremendous impact on K State in so many ways. He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Vanier family from all of us at K State Athletics.
Legendary K-Stater Jack Vanier has passed away at the age of 94.

and off the family payroll. Who am I kidding that payroll thing will never end 😉💲💲
#hardworkpaysoff
I called my dad to tell him I got offered my first full time job in college athletics. He started bawling. I’m not sure if that was because he is proud of me or relief that I’m officially off his payroll. Either way, still pretty special
It was another record breaking

#ThisDayInNDSUHistory
: December 11, 2010. One of the most memorable games in school history. In its 1st FCS quarterfinal; NDSU rallies to take a 31-24 lead at Eastern Washington. The Eagles force overtime and lead 38-31 when Brock Jensen fumbles at the goal line and call stands.
Thank you coaches and your support of our black athletes and I join you in Denouncing Racism and social injustice. We WILL show this in our actions as a department and our University.
Absolutely one of the best if not the best in our business. It’s an honor and privilege for me to have him as a friend and colleague. I learned so much from him the three years I worked for him. Iowa was fortunate and lucky to have him for 17 years. Good luck. Love you brother!!
I’m so moved by the outpouring of support behind my story about Kobe. And I love that
#girldad
is trending.. so for all those proud fathers who still have their girls to love on can you flood my timeline with pics of you and your flock. Honestly I need it as much as anyone rt now
Hey
@BLeCompteIV
it’s apparently a popular item because between you, my family and several of our loyal K State fans they want to get their hands on one. Will figure out how we can make that happen.
My time with K-State Football has come to an end.
To the players, coaches, and staff that have allowed me to be a part of their journey and share their stories along the way, thank you. This place will forever be home and the people forever Family 💜
Win
