This is why I laugh at people trying to say "see, told you Frank sucks..." ....like, our alternatives (or their ilk) that we would have hired are at all the other schools whose basketball team sucks. And while some would argue you can't assume that KSU would have made a bad hire.....given what we know about Wefald, Weiser, and Krause and their decision making, it's a safe assumption. As a matter of fact, it's not even an assumption. It would have happened. We would have hired McDermott and been sitting here saying "if he could just get some better recruits".
I know. I mean, there's 9 coaches in the league that haven't accomplished more than Martin has accomplished in the Big 12. Only, Self and Barnes have gone further in the tournament or finished as high as third in the league. Think about that sh*t for a second.
Granted, the recruits were the #1 reason for this, but why would we trade this for a bunch of coaches that haven't accomplished as much as Martin has in one season? The arguments just don't make sense when you really think about it.
