Remember when KU released that statement claiming they're the victims in all this. That was funny
KU Hoops: brought to you by Adidas and Snoop Dogg

Ku is like Nike in many ways. They know exactly who their audience is (recruits) and additionally, this gave them an opportunity to tell the NCAA and everyone else: F'you, we're Ku. And then they take themselves off the hook with a roll-eyes - we're sorry if this offended you, we can't understand why - apology. It's absurd for a university but laughable nonetheless.
It’s snoop! There weren’t actual strippers. Relax old man.
Wasn’t just a statement. The University was found to be a victim of fraud in a federal court.
Coach gonna rip that basketball out from under... oh.
This has got to be up for dumbest comment of the month "purely for the entertainment of the players and recruits." Please tell me all recruits parents are huge fans of Snoop.
Makes you wonder where the after party was at.
Yeah, sorry, I'm not an old man, but I also don't find Snoop Dogg and everything that comes with it super cool. Maybe 25 years ago. I get that there weren't actual strippers, but are pole dancers spreading their legs at halfcourt that much different? It was low-class trash.
Yeah I'm not sure I want that representing our program.
Are pole dancers grinding and doing the splits really any different than the dance team grinding and doing the splits at halftime of every home game? They were wearing the same amount of clothing.
See we are doing color commentary on the Snoop show now! You really are grasping for KU's innocence. Can't wait for this to happen!!
My question was totally independent of KU and their NCAA violation case. Really, other than the innuendo of what would be happening IF the dancers were strippers, what's actually different?
Doing the splits is not the same as opening your legs as strippers do on stage.
I think it would be cool to have a Snoop concert at Hilton. However, having it at an ISU basketball event with stripper poles at mid court, money guns, etc., creates a very poor image of the university and would be a major embarrassment for the university. No way Pollard would ever allow that, particularly with his family friendly environment he is trying to provide. I'm sure even some major donors may think twice about what they are doing if it did happen.
Also saying it is OK because we didn't force anyone to be there, or confusing strippers/pole dancers with college dancers/cheerleaders is beyond stupid.

Ask an actual cheerleader if they want to be compared to a pole dancer at a strip club. Cheerleaders are not trying to get you to stuff bills into their thongs. There's a big difference.
I always find it interesting the opposing fans that come on here to justify things that go on in their athletic programs.
