Other AD's have stood by their coaches under vastly more pressure from entities with vastly more financial clout (like the Iron Dukes for example).   John Currie is a little man with a big personal agenda.

Frank was all ours too. Huggs was Cincy's and WVU's at his core, but Frank was ours. He could've had a 20 year run at K State if we had played our cards right and not been stupid.

Pfft he literally campaigned for the Miami job

so what? he wasn't offered it

If not for Currie, Frank may still be a Cat today, but I find it pretty hard to believe he'd be a lifer. In my mind we were always going to lose him, just would have been nicer to do so after getting to at least one Final Four.

The loss of Frank is on the heads of every single fan who sat quietly while John Currie ruined this program.

If you are not a major donor just what was one to do to stop Currie/Shulz ?  Especially with a time frame of a few days/hours between Jamargate and Frank taking another job.

I don't see the point of putting on a brave face here. This is an absolute disaster for K-State fans.

Not for those of us who have always loved Frank, and hated Currie/Oscar. For us, it's rough ridin' great. I am party rocking so hard right now and so are so many of my best buds.

The anger is starting to flow towards Currie and Schulz(s). Not so much towards Weber. This will complete the circle and our punished will be served. The Weber tenure will soon be over.

Why? I hate every tuck who contributed (directly or indirectly) to pressure on Currie/Schultz to micromanage Frank, but I sure as eff don't hate myself or any other Frank supporter because we were right as crap and being right feels super good.

It doesn't feel super good when another team is yet again hanging a banner that should be at K-State. 

I'm slightly bitter at Frank for folding up shop.  If he and Bill had presented a united front to the public Currie would have been out on his ass.

I'm not bitter towards Frank at all. His micromanaging boss tried to bigtime him so he bolted to spite him and now he's partying while Currie has disappeared from the public eye. And Frank is going to make it his mission to pisspound Tennessee every single time they play. Frank is great and I'd take him back in a heartbeat.

For me, I would have hoped he showed a bit more loyalty to the fans and school that made him.  I would have probably done the same thing he did.  For me, my bitterness for him leaving is well eclipsed by our eff faced tuck fans who wanted him gone and love to have Oscar now.

It's so cute how people on here are lashing out. As if any fan had anything to do with Frank leaving and us getting oscar. Simple things for simple people.
