Is it possible to qualify for Master of Nine as a Crusader without dipping Warblade or Swordsage?

Yes. Mo9 requires you to know maneuvers from 6 disciplines; that's one in each of your Crusader disciplines plus Martial Study three times. Getting all the prereq feats will be annoying and likely require flaws and/or a dip in Cobra Strike Monk (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/classes/variantCharacterClasses.htm#cobraStrike), but it's doable.

Other option: gain other-discipline Maneuvers via items. Then you can spend all of your Feats just on Improved Unarmed Strike/Adaptive Style/Improved Initiative/Dodge/whatever the other one was. Who needs Martial Study?

This is kind of risky and will not be approved by some DMs, but it does avoid the use of Flaws or other cheesy sources of extra feats.

Well, it looks like I'm probably going Ruby Knight Vindicator, so I'll only need Martial Study twice. I might be able to get some bonus feats from Cleric too.
