GoPowercat publisher Tim Fitzgerald delivers his thoughts on the day's notable headlines from Kansas State athletics and the sports world. Here is what is on today's agenda:. Big 12, and likely ACC, football programs are beginning to see a new dirty trick being played on the recruiting trail. Recruits are now saying that some coaches from the Big Ten and SEC are telling recruits that Big 12 schools soon won't be playing college football at the highest level. In reality, no one knows if a super division will be created, what schools will be included, and how long before the settling of law suits even clears the path for this new semi-pro division of college football.

Kentucky State

Five weeks into his tenure as Kentucky head coach, Mark Pope is up to 11 members of the 2024-25 roster. Pope said recently that he plans on using all 13 available scholarships. One is spot presumably reserved for either North Florida transfer Chaz Lanier or BYU transfer Jaxson Robinson and the Wildcats would be judicious in filling that 13th and final spot.
