Sounds like K-State needs to fire its PR director, if that is how they handle a crisis.

Good point. We (Ohio State) took our hits this season with Clarett's antics. I will say that Andy Geiger (our AD) handled the situation in an upfront manner, and held several press conferences to keep the media informed. We all know how the media is, and if they can't have their nose stuck in every little detail, they'll hang you out to dry.

and if they can't have their nose stuck in every little detail,

Unless the story is about Democratic corruption, abuse of power or perfidy. Then the media's noses are vigorously sniffing elsewhere.

If I was a reporter, I would have done the same thing...going to the hotel. If you don't say something, we think you are hiding something and will do whatever we can to find out what.
