jank is a kstate guy and took over a crap illinois state program and made them compete immediatly...and has signed some talent at a level that school has never known.  Plus, he's relatively young. 

if martin is let go i'd be looking directly at him.

Way too soon.  

But if do fire him, I'm hoping for a Chipman/Blackman/Henson combo.

I consider it the highest validation we are on the right course when ku fans try to "help" us find another coach.

Some of the greatest coaches in the game tell us that talent trumps x's and o's, and I'm not so sure that Frank is deficient in that category.  You can say last years team did not perform as well as some had hoped, but then you have to realize that the team is much different if David Hoskins is playing.  It might just be that Frank has not been able to build depth after his first recruiting class to offset two players leaving for the NBA.  Next year, Frank should have a solid perimeter to compliment a young but talented frontcourt.  And for all the crying on this board, we can all agree that Frank/Huggs have done a solid to great job bringing talent to our school.

Jankovich is more than a K-State grad; he's a Manhattan native. And yes I note he is recruiting real talent to a shi† school.

But as stated above, too soon. Big influx of talent next year and not of the one-and-done type. How Frank fares with that will determine his future.
Title: Re: tim jankovich?
Post by: sonofdaxjones on January 22, 2009, 11:11:30 AM
Jank . . . desperately wants to coach K-State someday, just sayin.

But it's way to early on Frank. 

Jank was making progress at N. Texas until the AD sold out totally for football and considered basketball nothing but a profit center and so he sent Jank's teams out on on the road for paychecks and a killer OOC schedule.  Jank fought back and ended up getting forced out.

This is stupid talk.  If KSU had an opening in the near future, Jank should be a top 5 candidate.  (Pastner (:love:) should be #1).

I just think the notion that Jank would solve all of KSU's problems w/ a little "up coaching" is also stupid talk.

I just want what is best for the conference.  the better ksu is the better off the rest of the league is and right now ksu is in a position to capitalize on their recent success.

I don't care who the coach is but if ksu fans are wanting martin fired I think jank would be a great hire. 

sorry if it's too early but I didn't mean anything negative by this thread.

2nd time in as many seasons you've started this thread.  you two must be related or you have a whorish mancrush on the guy, can't blame you HE IS GOOD LOOKING.

it's far too early to judge Martin at this point.  hell, the guy took us to, and won a game, in the NCAA tourney last year which is more than anyone coaching at K-State for over 20 years.

and if you want to discredit that win because of Beasley and Walker, 2 NBA players, well guess what ku fan, then your NC means crap because it took Seff 6 NBA players to get past Bucknell and Bradley.

Ben, since you are the know-er of all things, and since you're a hearty contributor to the phogtards and the slantards where they know everything about everything.

How would you describe Frank's 2nd full recruiting class??

Title: Re: tim jankovich?
Post by: jester66 on January 22, 2009, 01:30:39 PM
His logic is simple.  When KSU can only offer 2 kids, that's terrible recruiting.  When ku is in the same positon the next year, it's understandable.

The main difference is that Self actually recruited all of those players that won a National Championship.  Self has taken three different programs to the Elite Eight.  Martin was a desperation hire made in the unexpected absence of Bob Huggins.  He had about as much to do with K-State's success last year as I did.

ku brought in seven 4-stars (including Withey) and one 3-star.  Tyshawn Taylor is a baller... LOL @ your increasing level of retardness.  ku's bringing in two 5-stars for '09 and possibly one or two more.
Title: Re: tim jankovich?
Post by: sonofdaxjones on January 22, 2009, 05:39:27 PM
And since we're all about stars, Frank is bringing in a 5 star and a 4 star next year, and a 3 star who had offers from Tech, OU, UCLA, Iowa and Florida State.   Plus Henriquez, who while every screams project, project . . . still had offers from Kentucky, URI, Xavier, Missouri, and UNLV.

So, while I as a fan am not real happy with Frank, and get a  :lol: at the resident Martinites, I still think he deserves a chance to see what he can do.

what's not to love?  3 very good players.  i especially like the rebounder dude.

Hmmm... let's see.

'07: 

Aldrich - 15.3 ppg, 9.7 rpg
Morningstar - 6.9 ppg, 2.9 apg
Reed - 7.4 ppg, 1.3 apg

'08:

Taylor - 10.2 ppg, 3.1 apg
Mc. Morris - 7.9 ppg, 5.1 rpg
Mk. Morris - 4.9 ppg, 4.7 4pg
Little - #1 Juco prospect (injured most of season)



Every single one of those guys would start at K-State.

reed wouldn't start.  doubt if taylor would either.  (consistently start, obv. they'd get some "i'm mad at sutton" starts).


the only elite player of the bunch is aldrich.  and, you know, not really self's fault, but ku gets a ridiculous amount of nothing out of having a player of his ability on the roster.  benched behind the deepest team of all time last year and then gone after a throwaway soph year where just getting into the tourney will be a win for kansas.

This post has to be a joke, because (1) Tyshawn Taylor makes your guards look like trash [please rewatch ku/K-State game], and (2) because you don't need 6 elite players in one recruiting class in order for it to be a good class.  Aldrich is playing like an All-American and both Morningstar and Reed have provided some great minutes this season.  Add a couple 5-stars to the mix next season and that team will be Final Four material.

taylor is like ku's version of '07-'08 pullen.  fans like him because they expected nothing and he can run up and down the court without falling down (strange how pullen lost the ability to do that this year).  in reality, he's done nothing.

no one needs elite players.  if ku just wants to be the best of the nortards, then by all means, classes like '08 are the way to go.

Taylor is nothing at all like Pullen.  You just get increasingly more ignorant with each and every post.  Taylor is a legit 6'3 and he has long arms.  I've seen him throw down an alley oop 'and-one.'  Don't tell me he's like Pullen.  Second, a team of Collins, Aldrich, Little, Morris', Morningstar, Robinson, Withey, Taylor, Johnson, etc, would be Final Four material.  You're insane if you don't see how loaded that team is.

not enough experience and in reality, the jury is still out as it relates to everyone you listed with the exception of collins and aldrich.  just imo but experience has to be mixed with the talent to make to the FF and ku won't quite have enough of either.

I think Jank would be great for ksu.   Martin is a joke and this little experiment has ran its course.   Trying to base your program on one and doners here and there is not sustainable, you need a coach that can coach.   
lollers at Josh Pastner.   What would be his motivation to come to Manhattan?  I'd imagine he'd have better opportunites.   Jank wants to come, you guys should be very open to the idea.

Hey everyone,

I am new to this forum but have been a friend of coach Jankovich for several years.  After talking to him this morning, I mentioned if he would ever consider moving back to kansas for the ksu job if it opened.  He mentioned that also he is extremely proud of his alma mater he has no desire to move out of bloomington.  Also the ad is a ksu alumn and both plan on staying at isu for several more years.  I know ISU can pay them a large salary and the ceo from state farm has offered to donate money to keep coach jank and Dr. Zenger at isu.

I am new to this forum but have been a friend of coach Jankovich for several years.  After talking to him this morning, I mentioned if he would ever consider moving back to kansas for the ksu job if it opened.  He mentioned that also he is extremely proud of his alma mater he has no desire to move out of bloomington.  Also the ad is a ksu alumn and both plan on staying at isu for several more years.  I know ISU can pay them a large salary and the ceo from state farm has offered to donate money to keep coach jank and Dr. Zenger at isu.

We don't want him.  He sucks.

You don't give up a coaching spot at a powerhouse such as Illinois State, that would be insane.

He's not as lucky as Frank Martin.  He wasn't the beneficiary of a coach bolting and leaving a top five recruiting class.  All Frank Martin has done so far is not totally f*ck up a pretty good situation.  K-State was an 11-seed last year with Michael Beasley and Bill Walker.  This year, K-State is looking at the NIT.  Honestly, not that impressive.

He was, however, the beneficiary of very good, experienced talent relative to the MVC.  The only decent player he's recruited is a transfer he'll only get one year out of.

You are a dumbass. He just finished 4th in the Big 12 after being picked to finish 8th with Darren Kent as a go to scorer. That is damn impressive. Last year, KSU had no guard play to help Beaz and Walker, hence the 11-seed. KSU will probably end up in the NIT for one reason and that is that Oregon, Kentucky and Iowa all choked hard and shredded our RPI. Martin has not yet had a complete team to work with but he will finally get one starting next year.

reed wouldn't start.  doubt if taylor would either.  (consistently start, obv. they'd get some "i'm mad at sutton" starts).


the only elite player of the bunch is aldrich.  and, you know, not really self's fault, but ku gets a ridiculous amount of nothing out of having a player of his ability on the roster.  benched behind the deepest team of all time last year and then gone after a throwaway soph year where just getting into the tourney will be a win for kansas.




This post has to be a joke, because (1) Tyshawn Taylor makes your guards look like trash [please rewatch ku/K-State game], and (2) because you don't need 6 elite players in one recruiting class in order for it to be a good class.  Aldrich is playing like an All-American and both Morningstar and Reed have provided some great minutes this season.  Add a couple 5-stars to the mix next season and that team will be Final Four material.

I'm not going to trash Taylor because I think he is good and will be be very good.  But, I will take note that Clemente was 2nd team all big 12 and Pullen was honorable mention all big 12. Taylor was a no-show on the all big 12 list (other than the all-rookie team). BTW, neither Morningstar nor Reed were on these lists. My guess is that will be true for the next two years also.

Jank recruited plenty of talent to ku and Illinois.  It's a little different recruiting players to the MVC instead of the Big 12/Big 10.  Jank would have K-State better than 7th place in the Big 12 this season, with losses to Iowa, Baylor, and Oregon.

1.  Your '08 recruiting class was the worst in the Big 12... dead last.  The entire class is basically a washed up UConn transfer and Buchi Awaji.    :lol:


2.  Recruiting players to the MVC and Big 12 is entirely different.  You can't compare Jank's recruiting to K-State's, because they're not on a level playing field.  Jank recruited tons of talent to ku and Illinois, as I've already pointed out.

2.  Recruiting players to the MVC and Big 12 is entirely different.  You can't compare Jank's recruiting to K-State's, because they're not on a level playing field.  

You, in this very thread, compared their W/L records while one was in the B12 and one was in the MVC.  You can't have it both ways. :dunno:



No, I simply used Jank's overall record at Illinois State to point out that he's done a good job so far in his first two years there (46-17). 

and frank's record is the 6th best in big 12 history.  not bad for aau thug ball  :kstatriot:

How come you still haven't addressed the most valid comparison out there IMO; former MoValley coaches and their transition to Big 12 basketball compared to Frank.  Frank owns them (6-0 head to head!) and it isn't even close.

You are biased toward Jank simply b/c he was at ku.  Don't get me wrong, I think he's a fine coach, but there is no guarantee that he could do better than Frank in this league.  Perhaps he'll prove me wrong at some point, but based on what I've seen so far from Frank compared to former Valley coaches, I'll take Frank.

Jank would probably have Willie Warren right now at K-State and would have Huggins' recruits playing at a higher level.  Jank recruited tons of talent to ku and Illinois, why wouldn't he be able to do it at K-State?   You guys are getting killed on this one.  Almost worse than the Dezmon Briscoe > Lamark Brown thread.

Warren to K-State? Can we just stick to facts?

Have you considered that if we had not hired Martin that we likely would have lost many of the current players we have and will have next year. I seriously doubt that Jank could have brought in that much talent. In your scenario, there is a good chance we would have been fighting with CU for the cellar this year.

Instead, with a sophomore laden team we did much better than the mediots thought and have a top 25 class coming in next year.  

I would love to have Jank as an assistant to Martin for an x's and o's guy, but there is little evidence that he can recruit with Martin and his staff.

why didn't Jank recruit well at N Texas?
why isn't Jank recruiting comparably well to other MVC schools?

There's absolutely no gurantee that Jank would do anything at K-State.   Jank was an assistant at K-State and didn't land anybody of significance.  In fact he helped his old ball coach Jack Hartman get forced to retire.

Looking at Rivals . . . they show Jank as the co-recruiter on 1 player at ku (that being the Mongoloid out of Dallas Darrell Arthur) along with that Sleazeball kurtis Townsend, and anybody who thinks that the sleazeball Townsend wasn't leading the way on that one is a . . . dumbass.

Recruiting to Kansas is not hard.  I could recruit to ku.  They have the name and national media doing your recruiting.  I don't give anyone other than that credit for getting good recruits to kansas.

i don't entirely agree.  you have to recruit everywhere.  even at unc or duke.


i do think self is pretty hands on as a recruiter.  some head coaches are, some aren't.  the mere fact that self is willing to carry manning (has manning ever gotten a player?) tells you a lot about how that staff divides the recruiting workload.

True, but at certain schools you are automatically on the short list of most major recruits.  You do have to recruit directly against other elite level schools, but bringing in a top 25 class to a uk, UNC, Duke, etc is pretty much a forgone conclusion every year, no matter who is doing the recruiting.  Even if you miss on your primary target (top 20 type dudes) your second, third, or even fourth options are still going to be top 150 type guys.  Hell, dudes like Teahan walk on to uk, when they could have definitely received a schollie from many other decent teams.

the fact that seff went out and picked up a hired gun like Townsend tells me everything I need to know about his recruiting    :flush:

Not true.  Roy had quite a few unranked classes, and lost a lot of high profile recruiting battles.  Self has obviously lost a lot of high profile battles the last three years, too.

I said the same thing.  When you're going against other elite level programs for the same kids, you're going to miss on some targets.  But, they have a safety net most programs don't have.  Look at the top 150, the vast majority of them have uk at least listed as a school of interest.  Simply because of the mystic of the program.  Miss out on a top 15 dude, no worries, just sign the guy that's ranked right behind him at that position.  We miss out on a Kadji, end up with an Abdul.   :yuck:

Don't worry, when Delonte's pipeline dries up, and Frank is fired, Jank might still be available. 

So, where is the evidence that Dalonte's recruiting pipekine will dry up? The guy is 30 years old (maybe not quite)!!

This post has to be a joke, because (1) Tyshawn Taylor makes your guards look like trash [please rewatch ku/K-State game], and (2) because you don't need 6 elite players in one recruiting class in order for it to be a good class.  Aldrich is playing like an All-American and both Morningstar and Reed have provided some great minutes this season.  Add a couple 5-stars to the mix next season and that team will be Final Four material.


taylor is like ku's version of '07-'08 pullen.   fans like him because they expected nothing and he can run up and down the court without falling down (strange how pullen lost the ability to do that this year).  in reality, he's done nothing.
no one needs elite players.  if ku just wants to be the best of the nortards, then by all means, classes like '08 are the way to go.


lol @ ku in the final four next year btw.  stupider than the ksutards that thought ksu had a shot @ the tourney this year.




Hmmmmm.... let's see:


ku: preseason #1

Tyshawn Taylor: projected #17 overall pick in '10 NBA Draft by DraftExpress

The Grant Thornton review showed our sports programs are squeaky clean.  He is having a rough time accepting it.

back to the original topic.

jank would do more with less than martin.  So an average recruiting class with no 5 stars would be more competitive than Martin with his blue chip player every two seasons.

so when does SIU get bought out by the big boy's for Jank's services.  it's gotta be soon.   i think Manhattan may be too cosmopolitan for TJ.

if not his time will pass and with any luck he could become the next Charlie Spoonhour.  would be great for the state of KS.
