rumor

Frank won't leave. He's a real man and real men don't betray their family.

[KSU176]

Geezus.     I can't take this shiit.

[JTKSU]

Geezus.     I can't take this shiit.

No doubt.  I've all but abandoned the football team, if I'm forced to stop watching b-ball, I'm screwed.

[chum1]

I'm sure Frank would love to go there, but the chances that they would want to hire him probably aren't that great.

this is true.  him being a HS coach and all.

[GoodForAnother]

Dear Athletic Director that does not exist,

Please throw as much money as possible at Mr. Frank Martin aka The Punisher as soon as possible.  Also, find a way to get palm trees planted outside the basketball offices.  And free cigars.  TIA

G.F. Another

[Bookcat]

If Schulz doesn't give out staff the contracts they deserved they'll be gone and it will be KSU's fault.


Just as its KSU's fault for being in the red by a gazillion damn dollars right now.

[cireksu]

what the frack is the timeline for hiring an AD?

[Rick Daris]

guys-

all we have to do is very quickly hire hocutt and then miami won't have an AD to hire martin.  two birds one stone. maybe more like two cats one stone (or something funnier). 

[Bookcat]

what the frack is the timeline for hiring an AD?

qft.

Schulz is going to bring in a good ol' boy buddy with absolutely ZILCHO Kstatetriotism and we'll end up with a SLTH that formerly coached at Mississippi State.

Hell, we can even get their play by play announcer. It's how Wyatt landed this gig from Colorado State. He was Weiser's chum out West.



If Frank would just give us two or three more years and maybe a deep run in the NCAA Tourney, a conference title (tourney or regular season)..and THEN he moved on then I would feel more "okay" with it. I'd still be broke up about it but not near as bad as if he leaves us before Jam Sam is a junior at least.

[Andy]

perhaps a small benefit to missing the tourney?  (lol)

[sonofdaxjones]

ACC, Location, New Arena, EMAW as AD who knows what Frank is doing at KSU.

I was laughing so hard at that avatar I almost forgot my counterpoint.  kuDOS (VHAIQ Very High Avatar IQ)

Frank aint going anywhere as long as he gets love from KSU.  He's got a great gig here!
School that has an us against the world mentality that matches his own.
Better chance to win in this conference.
Campus that minmizes distractions to his players.  Just ask Denis what school is better for the players that actually want to better their game?
With the exception of Seff, he's as good, if not better than any of his conference brethren.
The players he's brought to the plains have enjoyed it here and can help him recruit.
 

[sonofdaxjones]

Jester that was a very  post, hope you're right.

[michigancat]

LOL.  he would be so gone if they offered.  LOL, peeps.  He'd be dumb not to.

Now, if we had someone w/ the balls to hire Josh Pastner,

ESPN Radio actually played some Miss St radio highlights from the SEC Championship game yesterday and the guy is actually completely old school.  I am pretty sure he is about 75 years old and smokes 6 packs a day.  I think he smokes during the game, I could hear him inhale a couple of times.  It was kind of fun to listen to.

Totally agree on Frank being gone if offered.   Come on, he'll take Hill with him, and they'll laugh about how much easier it is to pull guys out of dreary east coast cities to Coral Gables Florida as compared to Manhattan . . . then toss in Frank's connections in Florida.   It's an absolute no brainer for Frank. 

Plus, he'll be in a conference where his program won't finish in 4th place 3 years in a row and get passed over for the NCAA tourney 2 out of those 3 years.   

Goodbye Frank . . . it was kind of fun while it lasted.

I will say this, Hocutt would have to bring a lot to the table to get any coach including Frank.   I did a little research . . . UofM makes the b-ball team fly commercial . . . major pain in the ass, they don't get much overall fan support, no basketball practice facility and despite the new arena it is a multi-purpose facility . . . but it does sound like Haith is proactively trying to leave hotseat or not.   So that's not a big lure to future coaches without major changes.

[catzacker]

KSU:  where coaches go before they go "home".

It would still be stupid for Frank to stay at KSU.  It isn't like he's going to some bumf*ck redneck state in the middle of nowhere.  He's going to f*cking Miami.

I'm sure the DC Assault players will enjoy the weather down in Miami.  Hopefully, Will "the Thrill" Spradling sticks with us.

[michigancat]

I will jump off a cliff when we hire Underwood to secure the spradling commit

[catzacker]

Who should KSU go after when Frank'n'Te leave for Miami?  I hear that the coach from Morgan State University is a real up n' comer, got 'em in the Tourney this year.

willing to risk being banned (again) if he stays 

[cas]

Now, if we had someone w/ the balls to hire Josh Pastner, 

+1.

Odds that anybody outside elitist basketball fans even know who Pastner.

Based on looks alone he's got it

PASTNER

[steve dave]

First page of google image search when I typed in Josh Pastner

[wildcat371]

Heres a valid reason why he won't leave: we took a BIG chance with hiring him and gave him a head coach spot at a big time school probably at least 5 years before he would have had another opportunity like this, if he is at all EMAW he will stay.

That said this is still just a rumor and probably not true at all, Frank loves k-state and bleeds purple
