Wichita State media love thread

[ShockerMas]

WSU one of the featured teams on this "Agony of missed perfection" feature on SportsCenter about tonight's women's NCAA championship game featuring undefeated UCONN vs undefeated Notre Dame. Nothing big, just some highlights (lowlights I guess) and some of the postgame coverage.

Other teams were Larry Bird's ISU Sycamores, 18-1 Patriots, the Detroit Tigers perfect game blown call by Jim Joyce, and a couple others I didn't catch

He could really show some love, by opening up that checkbook! ;)

I believe he has. What do you want from him now? He's not the only one with money in Wichita. I know, I know -- he's richer than (fill in the blank) but this is OUR program and we should be doing more than we do. I am tripling my SASO for this coming year -- how about you?

No, I don’t EXPECT any more from Charles Koch, however a $100 mm donation could take us from ‘very good’ to ‘great’. A donation to be used for campus infrastructure, academics and athletics. Sorry, if I come across greedy. Sometimes all you need is a sound plan and vision and the cojones to ‘ask’ the question.

The balls rolling...

WSU graduates find more jobs, earn more than other state grads

"A key element leading to higher employment and earning rates for its graduates is Wichita State's emphasis on experience-based learning through cooperative education positions and internships."

Worst spelling of Wichita State EVER: "P.S. Sorry about Whichitta State. I was pulling for them too since they are MVC"

Wasn't sure where else to put this, but had to share. This was from the person running a bracket group that I was in (who I didn't know b/c it was a friend of a friend) when he emailed me about my winnings. I know Wichita gets misspelled all the time, even in the media (thus putting this in the media thread), but what are they teaching people at Illinois State??!!

WSU just needs a T. Boone.

“I think I got my money's worth,” Boone said of his $500 million donations to his alma mater, half of which has gone to athletics. “I have no regrets at all.”

T Boone isn't even in the same league as Charles Koch. Charles Koch makes more money in one month than T Boone Pickens does in a year.

Wow! That's terrible. That's right up there with the woman who kept pronouncing it "Wichituh" while she was calling one of our highlight videos for espn.

Good point, let's raise the 'ask' amount to...

UHHHHH, did you actually bother to read the post? It had nothing to do with who has more money. For your benefit, I'll expand on one small portion:
