Figured that’d get your attention. And really, it’s little more than a tease, just a way to tell you that the Eagle has launched a new blog for the NCAA Tournament called “Posting Up.” This weekend, Levi should be providing most of the content and it can be found here.
OK, I won’t leave you high and dry like that. I spoke with Mr. Evans, who was either at the hospital or on the way there to be with a friend. I know this because he told me that’s why he had to get off the phone for about five minutes. He did say he’d call me back, but we’ll see.
Here’s the unofficial transcript of the conversation:
Me: The season is over and you told me you’d be making decisions soon. What’s the deal?
TE: I still don’t know, man.
Me: Is K-State an option?
TE: Yeah, K-State is interested.
Me: How can you be sure?
TE: They were at my conference championship. (But you already knew this because you read “K-Stated.”) But they can’t contact me.
Me: Then how do you know? How do you know any schools are interested?
TE: They let my coach know. They call him… I think I got offers from Arizona, Tennessee, Florida State, UNC-Charlotte and Mississippi State.
And then he was gone. By the way, Evans and the Motlow State Bucks fell a game short of a trip to Hutch with a 61-57 loss to Walters State. Evans was held to 11 points on 4-of-20 shooting. Ouch. On the plus side, he was named Eastern Division Player of the Year and co-Conference Player of the Year.
Still waiting for that call… If he calls back, I’ll update this post. Got any questions?

What are his feelings towards the current staff at KSU? Does he realize we love him?
What’s his prediction for the USC-KSU game tomorrow? What would it be if he were on the team?
No one will ever love you like we do, Tyree.
No West Virginia? We need his 44% (season ave) 3-pt shooting. He’s a perfect fit with Jake, Denis and Fred.
Does he think the fans of any other university are following him as closely as KSU fans?
How does he like the sound of “Big 12 Newcomer of the Year?”
Would he enjoy averaging 20 shot attempts a game, and an offense that will clear out for him?…’cause that’s exactly what he’ll get at KSU.
What’s his favorite mountain range?
Why does Mississippi have to many S’s?
Who would win in a fight between George Washington and the Marquis de La Fayette?
Did you check your voicemails yet, maybe he called and you missed him?
Call him back and tell him that you stepped away from your phone… and thought you heard it ringing from the other room… and you thought he might have been trying to call. Then remind him that we love him.
no questions. just tell him we’re thinking of him.
