Wow, we’re still feeling the effects from last week.  As a matter of fact, last week’s festivities led to a nasty little cold.  That’s better than some of the after effects some college football players ran into last week.  Never fear, the Crib Sheet remedy is here!  We’re dropping this in some Sprite and popping some NyQuil so hold on and go for the ride.  Hopefully we’ll be 100% next week.

• In the descendant department, Joe Montana’s kid Nick tackled some scholarship offers from Alabama, Flordia State, and Notre Dame.  The son of a qb who’s a qb too might get better luck if he goes somewhere other than the Fighting Irish.  The shoes would be too big to fill and so far the quaterbacks coming out of dome town aren’t living up to the past.  Nick Cool doesn’t work, how about Nick Sweet?
• Somehow Columbia, Missouri landed in the top 10 on Forbes list for top college sports towns.  Well I guess Lawrence was too pretentious and Austin is more of a party town.  Manhattan doesn’t even come close.  I guess it’s cool that they are on the list, but they need to win a championship somewhere to deserve top 10 status.
• The Bryce Brown saga continues after a couple of swerves.  The NCAA is investigating Brian Butler, the mentor for Brown, to figure out if he’s more of an agent than a mentor.  The former rapper has been representing Wichita football players and pimping them on his website.  Not sure there’s much mentoring there.  Meanwhile, some rumor mongering points to Oklahoma being on the sweepstakes for Brown.  I’m not sure they’ll pull him in late, but the fact that Kansas State is on the list still is laughable.  Maybe Brown will lose so much cred out of this that he’ll walk on to Wildcat territory, only to regain his rep.  In my dreams.   In my dreams.
• Speaking of Wildcat territory, it seems some old friends are coming back to Manhattan to help Bill Snyder 2.0 out.  Jonathan Beasley and Joe Gordon are coming back  to fill out some spots left open by some movements.  Thankfully, Bill is going to former players to help rebuild the tradition (however small it may be) of the Kansas State Wildcats.
• So a Division II school in Newberry dropped their mascot name, Indians, under pressure from the NCAA.  That’s fine and all, but where is the pressure for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish?  If the NCAA is going to go with regulating names then it needs to be consistent across the board.  Now Illinois dropped it, but Florida State got the write from Indians to use it.  So is it really worth going after, or is it a PR stunt to make everyone feel good about themselves?
• Let me tell you somethin’ dude, the Kiffster is gonna run wild over you!  Well, maybe not that but one of the tactics he’s using at Tennessee is encouraging his coaches rip off their shirts a-la Hulk Hogan.  So whatcha gonna do?  WHATCHA GONNA DO?
• What’s up with all of the football players being arrested in the offseason.  Yeah they’re young and in college, but they’re the leaders of the campus.  There’s a time to party and a time to get ready for some football.  The way I see it, the only players that can party now are the ones from Florida.
• So we finally figure out why Andy Ludwig left Kansas State after 2 months to go back to Cali.  His family all lives on the coast out there.  I would call shenanigans if Tim Griffin didn’t point out that he’d be eating some salary in the deal (cost of living wise).  Oh well.
