Kansas State fans are madder than I have ever seen

Someone asked why KSU sent someone to the middle of the court during timeouts, the KSU writer for the KC Star had an explanation.
But teams, including K-State, always send someone to midcourt during timeouts to keep an eye on the other team so they can relay lineup information back to the head coach. If a team was obtaining that kind of information early, that could theoretically help them on a few possessions each game. That can make a difference in Big 12 games, which are always battles.

Can't SI just stick to going bankrupt and doing swimsuit issues? You know, the stuff they are good at.Sorry if already shared, but SI has now picked up the story. JFC, way to make up some **** by Tang.
Report: Iowa State Men’s Basketball Team Accused of Stealing Signs Against Kansas State
Wildcats coach Jerome Tang appeared frustrated during Wednesday’s Big 12 game as the team alerted officials of their claims.www.si.com
Not sure I've ever noticed that in 40 years of watching and attending games.
So, let me get this straight, KSU and their fans are saying that ISU planted people behind the KSU bench to steal signals during timeouts and then relay the information to the ISU bench so TJ would have the team prepared for what KSU was going to do?
So, let's look at this logically, say that ISU did have someone behind the bench listening or recording what KSU was doing, that person would then have to go over to the ISU bench and relay that information, or phone that over, which would be difficult because phones tend not to work in Hilton. The person that receives the message then relays that to the coaching staff and then to TJ to instruct the players how to respond, all within 30 seconds to a minute, while also talking about what defense we are in or what play we want to run on the next play.
This is just beyond crazy, KSU lost, the refs sucked the whole game against both teams, better to forget about it and just move on.

If they were really doing this, they’d have a hidden private network that only they would be using I’d assume.
The bolded is a flat-out lie. The K-State manager was the only one I've EVER seen go that far away from the bench area -- and yes, there is a by-rule bench area even during timeouts.
As an employee I can see all networks. There's only two networks. 1 for reporters, 1 for staff.
I think the writer was saying both KSU and KU do this, not ISU is the way I took it, but I did not copy that part of the article. My fault.
That’s not how it works, a hidden WiFi network doesn’t broadcast it’s existence. You have to know it’s there. It’s not like they’d have tech services set up a cheating network for them.
There could be a dedicated landline from the bench to row 10ish behind the other bench.
He's saying a bunch of teams send people out to midcourt. That is blatantly false.
The only true part is having someone assigned to figure out which of the opposing 5 are in the game.
Bruh, being staff doesn’t mean Wi-Fi networks have to make themselves visible to you.
Jamie Pollard wouldn’t see it if they didn’t give him the info to connect, so neither would you. Staff or not.
I’d be upset at this slander if it wasn’t true.
Tang's voice must carry quite well in a loud arena where people a few rows back can hear what he is saying while in huddle with his players. And that's assuming Tang is facing the bench.
This whole claim is absurd and hilarious at the same time.
