VIDEO: Otz goes off on Kansas State

This is one that drives me nuts. Reporters for reputable outlets aren’t going to use Twitter randos and just call it “unnamed sources” to write whatever they want. That’s not how it works, and this is a BIG accusation that would open the paper up to libel if they weren’t following journalistic ethics. I can’t imagine a reporter (or their editor) would allow themselves to get out over their skis like this. There’s no upside for them, and making something like this up or reporting it from bad sources is a career killer. Someone(s) from K-State’s staff talked, but on the condition their name wouldn’t be used, and it would have to be someone who would be in a position to know.
You have a very misplaced trust in reporter integrity.
 

Story is up on ESPN and every other major sports news outlet. Tang can’t stay quiet anymore. He either needs to say “yes, we think they were cheating” or “no, this is a misunderstanding”. It he’s a weasel and will say more nothing.
 
In the KSU game, ISU’s 5 active players huddled on the court, heads together, arms around each other AND a KSU player walked over within 12 inches and stood there listening to them talk. At the time I thought it was peculiar, now it appears to have been directed by KSU staff. Can someone please link this action ?
 
I hope the league suspends Tang for these accusations and his garbage comments after their game today. He is a joke.
You realize we are doing the same thing KSU fans are doing right? We believe everything our coach says at his word without any proof. There is no way to prove that we weren't doing anything wrong. Surely someone caught the coach calling our student managers cheating mother ******* right?

I hate that fanbase and school more than Iowa's, but this whole thing is he said, she said.

Do I believe Tang is nuttier than squirrel poop? Yup. Would I trust TJ with my wife? Yup. Nobody but KSU believes Tang. We need to move on.

Chris Williams reported on the cursing of the student managers in real time during the game on Twitter. It happened dude, not just he said, she said.
