Glad that is over. That is the sentiment of K-State basketball fans after K-State’s 91-82 loss to Iowa in the first round of the NIT. Here is a sampling of the texts I received and some of the posts I saw from friends on social media: “I’m glad this misery is over for this season.” “At least the season is over.” “Every time I watched them this year, I kept thinking they are better than they are showing.” “Frustrating year.”…
We’ve got K-State football news and K-State women’s basketball and men’s basketball news today. Let’s get into it….

Here’s the latest… JM: Texas led most of…
Let’s do some rapid fire today. I have a lot to say after the debacle we witnessed last night in Lawrence. Here we GO! -K-State lost to Kansas 90-68 on Tuesday night, pretty much putting to bed any hopes of an NCAA tournament bid. K-State will likely have to win the Big 12 tournament to get in, and that isn’t likely to happen. -I listened to Jerome Tang’s post-game press conference. He was mad. It was the first time I’d…
