  • An egomaniac and bunch of meeks

    Fritz thinks he knows everything and acts like an egomaniac. A lot of the times the guy makes things up as he goes then makes a silly comment about farting or about one of his meeks Ryan or Cole to create a distraction just to avoid admitting he was wrong. Perhaps he needs to change his diaper before starting the podcast so he doesn’t feel childish. The guy is a clueless unprepared clown. Ryan and Cole keep repeating each other. One waits for the other to say something useless and keeps chewing ... more

  • Insiders AZ breakdown

    I rarely listen after a loss, but these former players were interesting and worth listening to. I really enjoyed their personalized perspectives.

  • Sometimes it’s better

    Fitz and Gilbert are pretty knowledgeable and have good insights into KSU sports. I can’t listen or fast forward when Cole is on the podcast. Cole just rambles without adding anything of significance.

  • Things are getting even worse

    I tried listening to one of the episodes recently after leaving due to horrible content, these guys are horrendous. Ego maniac Fritz with his clueless cronies have no real information on Kstate. Absolutely horrible podcast, stay away from these losers and don’t subscribe to their site.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Line insights and more on Kansas State football | Powercat Podcast
Q: Can this team get through the non-conference without stubbing its toe?
The hosts largely expect some tough moments given the first-time head coach and the non-conference slate, but they believe experienced players and a deeper QB room could help mitigate early issues, with a few tricky tests like Tulane and Army potentially shaping the early portion of the season.
Fighting Ever Fighting with Eli Huggins
Q: How would you describe the transition from college fo otball to life after the sport, and what helped you cope?
The transition was a weird, difficult process; maintaining structure from football helped, and strong family and a supportive network around me made it possible to stay focused and find a path in the real world, including a career in insurance.
Fighting Ever Fighting with Eli Huggins
Q: How long has it been since your father passed away, and can you recap what happened?
It's been a little over a year. A tragic 18-wheeler collision in stop-and-go traffic claimed my father's life and affected many others; he was deeply connected to Manhattan and K-State; the aftermath involved a lot of support from family and the community.
Fighting Ever Fighting with Eli Huggins
Q: Let's run it back to the start. Why did you choose Kansas State and what drew you to the program?
I was recruited by Andre Coleman in Georgia, fell in love with the outdoors proximity to campus, and the presence of a stable staff and Coach Snyder made it feel like a great opportunity; initially I was a bit homesick being 14 hours away, but I ended up glad I made the move.
Fighting Ever Fighting with Ty Zimmerman
Q: How do roster changes and the presence of newer players affect team chemistry and season readiness?
Chemistry comes from repeated exposure and competition; turnover requires a deliberate effort to develop leadership and culture quickly, with coaching staff adapting to integrate new players while maintaining core identity.
