Like maybe one or two of you that post here, I was alive and a fan in the 80's and I remember very fondly, growing up in McPherson Co., how wonderful the rivalry was. That went away for 22 years. Now it's back - - albeit for only a year. I want to be the first to tell you folks how impressed I am with Frank's team. It really breaks my heart, as a ku fan, that he will not be sticking around this league next year. He, as it turned out, was a great asset.
Believe me if you will, but I have it on good authority (from central KS and one of your biggest donors is my uncle), that kstate is not willing to pay ol' frankenstein what he's worth. Negotiations have stalled and Frank is looking for a deep run in order to get paid next year. Don't get me wrong, UCLA is not calling Frank. Others are. Word through the donors is that Frank will not sign any contract extension because he has no desire to work for the new AD. Also, according to my uncle, Frank has been in touch with the Big East (via Bob Huggins) and will be landing a job just as soon as the season wraps up. Of course it's a package deal with Delonte'. He's gone too.
Not sure why Frank wants to leave a place where a bunch of drunk morons are willing to suck him off, but I think the AD has a huge role in this. Your AD hate's Frank. Bummer for you.
Good luck on Wednesday; you're &@#%ed.
