tim jankovich?

[LimestoneOutcropping]

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.

Well, I guess somehow I will have to get over the disappointment and move on.   

This reminds me of the time I heard Bob Chipman wouldn't be coming...

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.   

btw, fantastic bump just to humiliate this loser ^

I guess I just don't see the shame in losing in the MVC Championship to Northern Iowa.  Jankovich is a good coach, and he can recruit.  He's done pretty well in his first couple of years at Illinois State.

There isn't.  He is a good coach.  He destroyed Creighton which I enjoyed.  He's not as good as Frank Martin.

[BMWJhawk]

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.

You know that's BS and are just being mean

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.

Jank over Frank would have stank.   

[BMWJhawk]

Jankovich recruited a bunch of talent to ku and Illinois.  ku probably would have Willie Warren right now if Jank had stayed.

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.

Ha!

[mcmwcat]

just think how much attendance ammo ben would have had w stank as our coach

Jank was a such a fantastic recruiter that he got Willie to come with him.....to Illinois State.....right?  JFC, McNeck made a living in the MVC.

Umm....mcmwcat.....stank also rhymes with Frank   (see yosh post for explanation)

i was actually thinking of ac milan midfielder stankovich.  oops.  stank - jank who gives a sh|t?  they are both irrelevant to ksu hoops' present/future.

[Chingon]

Jank = [(Chris Fowler*Depp)+(Dana Altman-dork_factor)]/(MVC)

[leawoodcat]

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.

frank martin currently has the 6th best conference winning percentage in big 12 history.

seriously, think about that. and it's not going to get worse any time soon.

i still get a little reverse-emaw when i see oguchi playing.


just &@#%ing graduate already!     glad he lost.

this is fantastic 

[oneuponaggies]

I like jank, sorry you guys don't agree.  I think KSU would be better off with him than Martin but I know it's not a popular idea with most of you right now.

Jank could do more with the same talent IMO. 

[feralchat]

That we'll never know because he'll never have it.
Why hockers continue to bag on Martin can only be explained for their desire we hire another SLTH loser.

Where do you think we end up this season in conference with Jank as our coach instead of Frank?  1st?

big difference is Jank wouldn't have the same talent.

agreed. Jank is pretty much wooly w/ slightly better talent if he is at Catz. Borderline SLTH. College bball is about what talent you can pull in, Jank could not bring in the same talent as Frank and 'Te.

god ku fans are retarded.

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.

there is nothing in jankovich's record to suggest that this is true.

He has Illinois State at the top of the MVC and almost took them to the tourney this year.  He's 46-17 in his first two years there... the guy can coach.
