"It's
time to roll up our sleeves and get to work."
With recruits coming
for visits in the next few days, those were the final words of
Tim Beck's prepared statement during the press conference
Wednesday (Dec. 9) which announced him as the new head football
coach at Pittsburg State University.
Beck, the assistant
head football coach and offensive coordinator at Pittsburg State
University, had been chosen by university president Dr. Steve
Scott as acting head coach in the wake of Chuck Broyles'
retirement from the position one week ago.
The
"acting" part of the title is gone, as Beck is
officially the 14th head coach in the football program's 102
years of existence.

The 2009 season of
Pittsburg State University football will be remembered for many
things, mostly on the negative side of the ledger.
One positive the
fans of TeamKong.net will take with them from the 5-6 campaign
is the performance of senior wide receiver Kendall Fisher --
their choice as the Gorillas' Player of the Year.
"I didn't even
know I was up for (the award) until about couple of weeks
ago," Fisher said. "A teacher at Garden Plain High
School told my sister that I was up for it, and she then asked
me if I knew anything about it. I'm really honored to be
selected."
