First, GREAT montage on a tough subject. Only the seriously good could do Pittsburg State.
Second, who is the Monarch?
Third, Kukla RULES!!!

Father Greene played for the Gorillas?
Then Brannen Greene has to play big minutes.
Brannen Greene has the Kansas thang in him despite all that read Georgia clay in his treads.
Brannen Greene is a strip pit legacy.
Brannen has to play.
Brannen Greene has to be nicknamed after some of the black market liqueur that was once produced in the strip pits in quantities sufficient enough to keep Europe drunk right after the ravages of WWII.
Johnny Walker Greene Label!!!

In my son’s Junior year of High School, we visited Pittsburg St. He’s a computer engineer now, not a football player, but for the size of school, they have a really impressive football stadium. And the whole town is behind the school. When we were there, almost every home and business had a PSU (not Penn St) flag or banner or something flying. It was pretty neat to see a town behind a school like that. It doesn’t happen in Salina. If I didn’t drive by Kansas Wesleyan every day I wouldn’t know it even existed.

PSU’s BB coach, Kevin Muff, played for KSU and battled down low against Danny Manning.

@jaybate-1.0 Alexander “Sharkey” Sweatt. He grew up in Humboldt Ks. - Same place where Walter “Big Train” Johnson came from.

My husband graduated from PSU.
We are again “flooding down in Texas.” Same places that flooded this Memorial Day (Wimberly / Blanco River) are getting up to 18 inches of rain and there are emergency evacuations going on. I had 9 inches last weekend and today we’ve had another 5! I was off today to go to doctor at 8 am and on the way a fence had washed out and somebody’s cow herd were walking down and in the highway. Glad to be home even though it took me 4 hours.

I’ve many, many relatives who graduated Pitt State-teachers, business persons, nurse practitioners, etc. Also my Dad was a 3 sport letterman for the Gorillas in the 1920’s. Cool town if ya can stand the sulphur smell & the awful tasting water.

@RockChalkinTexas I thought that was over!! Be careful! Have not heard from @JayhawkRock78 for ever.
-
@globaljaybird really excited to hear about the snakes, thx! Leave it to you!

@globaljaybird
Fished’em twice as a boy for a change from farm ponds and reservoirs, and rivers. Amazing places those pits. I don’t recall scorpions, just the Mocs and copperheads. Saw the Mocs, and was warned about the copperheads. Rattlers you can hear if you go slow son, but the copperheads, well, be careful.
-
@globaljaybird cool about your dad!

Famed sports artist Ted Watts is a Pitt State grad. Many around the world have seen his wonderful murals for decades & had no idea they belonged to the Oswego Kansas native.

My mom and all of her siblings are Pitt St. alums. I used to go games there when my mom would go up to visit her family since they live 30 minutes away from Pittsburg. This is also the only basketball game my mom will actively cheer against KU in basketball.
@wrwlumpy You forgot a PSU alum a lot of people here would be familiar with. Current Texas St. and former Texas A&M, Alabama, and TCU coach Dennis Franchione.
