K-State A.D. won’t make fans pay for buyouts

12:10 AM CDT

Kansas State athletic director John Currie vowed Friday not to use any money from fans or donors to foot the bill for the Wildcats’ recent buyouts. Currie, who unveiled his “K-State Pledge” — a list of five goals explaining his vision for the department — said the buyouts would be financed through K-State’s allocated funds from the Big 12 and the NCAA, a revenue-sharing sum that is about $9 million a year.
