tim jankovich?

[oneuponaggies]

just sayin

[mcmwcat]

haven't thought of that. 

[michigancat]

too soon.  JFC.  Frank has only had one recruiting class.

[Ghost of Stan Parrish]

How about Rolando Blackman?   

[oneuponaggies]

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.

GMAFB.  His team is nothing but juniors and seniors.

i was under the impression that he has gotten some solid commitments from chicago for next year.

I would advise you STFU when you have no clue what you're talking about.  Just some friendly advice.

[jester66]

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.    

[oneuponaggies]

just trying to help.

i like martin but a lot of you guys are acting like he needs to go so I thought i'd raise the question. 

michigancat - a little defensive this morning?

[feralchat]

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.

[sonofdaxjones]

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.

[SkinnyBenny]

Jank being an assistant at ku is a little hard for me to get over still.

From those that know, it was a little hard for him to get over.

[michigancat]

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

[oneuponaggies]

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.

Please don't bring that "Best for the conference" crap in here.

why?  i'm sick of being thought of as a crappy bball conference.  The north needs to improve.

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.

clams . . . bringing it strong and with extreme validity.

[BMWJhawk]

too soon.  JFC.  Frank has only had one recruiting class.

... and it was the worst in the Big 12 (even with Delonte Hill).  Jankovich is a hell of a coach and he can also recruit.  I'd hate to see him at K-State.

I haven't been anything but supportive of martin this season have I?

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?? 

I haven't looked . . . so how did that class rank in the conference standings??

[oneuponaggies]

couldn't ksu retain hill (judge) and hire jank?

just a thought. 

[jester66]

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.

[oneuponaggies]

are you guys attributing recruiting to martin?  I thought you paid Hill a half mil a year to do that?

...and in 2007 we had GRCOAT, ku's class wasn't even ranked in the top 30 (even with kurtis Townsend). 

[oneuponaggies]

recruiting rankings?

wow.

this isn't football.  i'll take tyshawn taylor over almost any guard in the country and he was a 3 star until just before signing for ku.

some coaches have a better eye for talent than recruiting service people...crazy huh?
