IF this happens, this is about one thing.  His hatred for Currie.

Yes.  I don't like Currie either.

i swear, it is amazing how little insight into the human mind most of you people seem to have.  do any of you really think that making 2.0 million vs 1.5 million has more impact on your daily happiness than working for someone who, at the very least, likes you enough to hire you vs someone you detest and who detests you?

i'll never judge someone for leaving a job due to a hateful relationship.  or even a mildly uncomfortable one.  and i find the idea that excess money is more important than your relationships with coworkers to be laughable in it's idiocy.

It's not just the money, it's the fact that Frank has built up a shitload of goodwill with the fans and has built a program set up to sustain that goodwill for a long, long time. Also, unless he looks at South Carolina as a destination job, he's probably adding a few years to his next shot at some of the best jobs in the country.

Another Elite Eight run or two at KSU, which is very feasible in the next 2-3 years if he can keep the roster somewhat together, could make it so a program the level of Illinois doesn't mush him next time their jobs come up.

And jesus christ, Currie isn't Lumberg. If you hate him, just don't talk to him. Go win big, then take a job that is truly better in a year or two.

 Currie isn't Lumberg.

I enjoyed that

Michigancat seems to be the most on target poster in this fiasco.  If Currie can't keep Frank from this suicidal move then he is a complete incompetent at his primary function and Frank is an irrational idiot.

I am now very worried.  I think he's gone. :bawl:


I hate you Currie. :angry: :shakesfist:
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

Why do I hate Frank more than Currie right now? I'm just feeling emotional I think.

If Frank leaves, you should hate both equally.

So, uh, I guess he had this job before getting his degree?  Maybe a military stint?  Anyway.

If all this nicey nice with the ncaa results in goodwill towards getting pearl out of ncaa hell a year early, it's somehow a good move all told.  Pearl's ceiling is higher imo.

Their major college coaching accomplishments are nearly identical and Pearl had the luxury of coaching against UK when they sucked and the SEC was never as good as the Big 12 was at its worst.  That being said I like Pearl, but there is no evidence that he is a better coach than Frank Martin.

Tennessee was the UK of the SEC when Pearl was there bad conference or not.  Not saying he's a better coach than Frankfurter either, but there wouldn't be a drop off.  I'm not expecting us to overtake KU ever in terms of conference domination, but at least he'd give us a more immediate shot.

Anyone suspending a Senior in the NCAA Tourney for 200 bucks is not gonna hire a cool coach
Checklist for next coach when Currie hires
A) White
B) Religious
C) Midwestern
D) 2 Star recruiter
E) Boring
