Jacob Pullen isn't happy about Kansas State hiring Bruce Weber

You can call former Kansas State guard Jacob Pullen a bitter man if you want. He just stated how he felt about Kansas State's hiring of former Illinois coach Bruce Weber.

The hiring was a surprise, considering that no one knew who Kansas State had on their radar and how quiet their search was after Frank Martin bolted for South Carolina.

Pullen. who is the school's all time scoring leader took to Twitter to rip Weber's hiring and his recruiting. Remember that Pullen is a Chicago guy and Weber didn't take full advantage of the fertile recruiting area.

"I support kstate for life no matter what but I'm not a Bruce Webber fan and I think Kstate can do a lot better," Pullen tweeted early Saturday. "Bruce Webber didn't think I was good enough to play at Illinois and I don't think he is good enough to coach at Kansas State."


Pullen may come off as bitter but there could be some truth to what he said. He's also saying what many Kansas State fans are thinking right now.

 

Charles Rogers is a wanted man

Every time the name Charles Rogers is brought up, it's usually associated with bad news. The former first round bust and Michigan State and Detroit Lions receiver constantly found himself in trouble. He should be the poster boy for wasted talent, even though Ryan Leaf might have something to say about that.

The latest news on Rogers is that he's wanted by Saginaw police on two separate warrants.


Former Lions and Michigan State receiver Charles Rogers has yet to turn himself in on two warrants seeking his arrest in Saginaw, WJRT-TV reported.


Rogers, 30, is charged with five misdemeanors in two unrelated incidents.


Rogers is charged with making a malicious phone call and conspiring to commit a crime in March, and possessing marijuana, an open container of alcohol in a motor vehicle, and driving on a suspended license in December.


The marijuana charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in jail, while the phone call charge carries a six-month maximum sentence.

Rogers has turned out to be a fine member of society. I say that in jest. I know there are Michigan football fans that will use Rogers as fuel for Michigan State jokes. This isn't a Michigan vs. Michigan State issue. It's about someone who wasted a gift, squandered money, and hasn't been a functional member of society. Anyone aspiring to be a pro athlete should use Rogers as a cautionary tale of what not to do when it comes to  off field decisions.
