Kansas State is not in Topeka...it is Manhattan. If you can recruit in Manhattan, you can recruit anywhere....been there, seen it.....

Topeka has the TV stations that cover Manhattan, so Topeka gets the TV market name.

The bottom line on this is that Amarillo-Canyon is a valid D1 TV sports market.

If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere- New Yo- er, wait a sec, we're not talking about that Manhattan?

Again I ask.

If Lubbock can support Division I.

Why not Amarillo?

The numbers and demographics say that Amarillo is a legitimate D1 sports market. ;D
