Are we only going to be monitoring/mocking openings, or can we discuss hot seats/coaches possibly leaving?

Other opening = OU

Purdue could be a decent draw if Painter does leave(no way he does leave for MU)

The empty seats hurt Hewitt's hopes of remaining on the job, even though the school owes him a $7.2 million buyout over the next five years as part of a lucrative contract he signed after the Final Four season.

There's also another big reason that could keep Frank from considering NCSU: Their AD Debbie Yow. She cultivated a reputation of being very difficult to work with in Maryland and nobody in College Park was really sad to see her go. If Frank and Currie are butting heads behind the scenes, then the likelihood of him duking it out with Yow is very high if he went to Raleigh. Plus, we could probably match any offer that NCSU has unless they really open up their wallet for him (which I don't see happening)

Seems like these guys would be taking lateral, or more likely demotions, by going to those places.

Sounds about right, Gary Williams isn't loved but the Debbie Yow thing along with Duke & UNC makes that the worst job of the current BCS openings.  People keep talking about money like that matters, but Depaul and Oregon threw loads of cash around too and no big fishes bit.

Quote
Memphis officials will announce later today that the school has reached a deal on a new and extended contract with Josh Pastner, a source told CBSSports.com on Tuesday.

Pastner had been linked to openings at N.C. State, Missouri and Oklahoma in recent days. He just took Memphis to the NCAA tournament and should return a preseason Top 25 team next season headlined by Will Barton, Joe Jackson, Tarik Black and incoming freshman Adonis Thomas, a McDonald's All-American from Melrose High in Memphis

Pastner is 49-20 in two years with the Tigers.

He replaced John Calipari in April 2009.

Curious to see where he goes with the search, though.  I thought Buzz would be a big target.  Maybe he was before he got extended, or maybe it's the reason he got the big extension.

Is this HC salary inflation we're seeing?  How does it affect our short to mid term chances of retaining Frank?  If someone wanted Frank for $2.3M, would we match (assume Frank dealt with it in the utmost respectful manner)?

i dunno.  looks like purdue had a hell of a run b/t 1920-1930 (half of their 22 titles came then).  Since 1989, Purdue's won it 4 times,  Mu's won 2 titles, though none as recently as last year as Purdue has.  West lafayette is only 6hours away from columbia.  i dunno.  seems like MU will provide resources, and Purdue won't give Painter another GA.

I don't get why everyone thinks this is so funny/depressing. They took a chance at a great hire that turned them down. I'd personally like KSU to try to make a similar hire next time (although maybe not so publicly). I mean, it isn't like Greg McDermott turned them down or something.

Yeah IMO people have been overselling the crap out of Painter.  BITB guaranteed a final four for Mizzou if he had stayed there at least seven years.  Klinksdale calling him a top 5 coach.  He's a very good coach, there are many very good coaches that don't regularly make final fours, Self has one.  FYI Painter at Purdue has the exact same win percentage as Frank does at KSU.

I think this is a valid point, but Crean is a pretty extreme example. I agree he's been much worse than I anticipated at Indiana, but Sampson pretty much destroyed that place on the way out.  A guy who has won decently and recruited well at another high major program to me is the biggest threat at an opposing school, and Painter definitely fit that bill. He's about as low risk as you get and odds are he would've likely had Missouri competitive and an NCAA program if he had come.

IMO a guy like Smart is not scary at all. He's on a magical run with mostly a bunch of guys he didn't even really recruit. Plus his style is a lot like Anderson's and I'm on not sold on it being a a great style at the high major level unless you are a ridiculous recruiter. I'd be much more worried about Stevens going to Missouri, but I don't think that's likely at all.

Painter played MU hard and balls deep.

I will give you reasons why Mike Alden was dumb for going all in on Painter:

1.  He's a Purdue Alum.
2.  Purdue was following through on everything they promised in terms of facilities:  A complete renovation of Mackey Arena, replete with new basketball operations facilities (offices, practice courts, dressing rooms, weight room).   Next to contract/money/emotional support that is almost always next on the list. 

That only left one thing . . . money.

See, Purdue is a unique school in that it uses no state funds to support its athletic department. It uses no university funding, either....Purdue pays for every scholarship, every coaching salary -- every stamp on every letter to every high school recruit -- with privately raised funds. That's impressive. That's a school that isn't bleeding an already bled-out state to pay its millionaires even more millions. Well done to Purdue. Wish more schools were like you.

BITB (Radio) defended MU pretty hard about going after Painter. Although he brought up a pretty solid point that perception of the next hire will be unfair from the fans standpoint if they end up paying the next guy 1.3 Million.  If you were about to unload 2.3 or higher on the previous candidate it would seem underwhelming.  The publicity of the painter deal probably gives future candidates much more leverage to become overpaid.

Yeah Crean has the #2 pg, #4 PF, #9 SF, and #16 SG coming in 2012 and they're all home state Indiana guys.  Add in a top 150 7 footer from North Carolina and that is a hell of a coup.  Cody Zeller will com in next year and help hold IU over until the crew gets there.  Obviously there isn't a lot of talent on the current roster but Crean won't be judged until that 2012 class is two years in.  Luckily for him IU fans aren't like Kentucky fans and will actually be patient enough for these guys to come in.  Crean will need to have the Hoosiers dancing in 2012-13 and in the top 10 in 2013-14 or we will probably see Brad Stephens pacing the sidelines in Bloomington the following year (either 13-14 or 15-16)  

I think Stephens is perfectly content at Butler and the one job that would quickly lure him away would be IU.

Not sure how Illinois is better than Purdue. Very, very similar jobs.

chicago is illinois.  purdue's geographic distance to chicago has never translated into competing with illinois for chicago recruits.


also, illinois is a media draw, purdue isn't.  i'd bet the illinois alumni base dwarfs purdues.  similarly, ui is richer, more prestigious.

That's fair. But it isn't like you see kids in chicago growing up dreaming of playing for Illinois - this isn't unc we're talking about here.

this is just a falsehood.  granted, chicago alone produces enough talent to fill up 2 or 3 whole D1 squads each year, but Illinois generally has their pick of the litter.  and it's not just for basketball either, practically all the high school kids in CHI want to go to U of I for school as well.

Meh, The enrollments are similar, Purdue has no need to recruit Chicago as Indiana talent is as good or better as any in Illinois.  Purdue actually has a bigger endowment.  They also have more continuity than IU and are a more successful program.  Self proved that Illinois is not a destination Job and while Purdue isn't either I don't think Painter will be leaving for another 15-20 years.

never once in my original post did i compare the two jobs.  MIcat said that "it's not like chicago kids dream of playing for UI", which is completely false.  I can't compare the two jobs because I don't know as much about PU as UI, but the right coach could be very dangerous at UI.  I don't think Weber is that coach.

They've really done a great job the last two classes, but look at the recruits ranked higher than any Illinois recruit that came out of Chicago before that:

2008:

DeAndre Liggins: UK
Inman Shumpert: GT
Michael Dunigan: Oregon

2007:

Derrick Rose: Memphis
Nayal Koshwal: Depaul
Evan Turner: Ohio State

2006:

Sherron Collins: KU
John Scheyer: Duke



You could keep going back, and find a similar pattern. Illinois hardly gets "the pick of the litter" from Chicago, over the long term.

I don't think it's fair to just list a bunch of players and then say "well, Illinois didn't get them so the draw isn't that great".  You've got to take things into account like, how many schollys did UI have that year? When did they offer kids? Who is their AAU coach tied in with? How much money did some of these other kids get to go other places (Davis, Rose, Collins, etc... let's be realistic here)?  The fact of the matter is that UI (especially under Weber) has a really high success rate pulling in the IL kids that they offer early.  Illinois seems to offer a select group of Chicago kids scholarships while they are still sophomores and they typically have them wrapped up before their senior year starts.

unless they move okc, move dallas and ou fball stops raking in money, clothing the entire state in crimson and getting on tv every week, ou will stay the 3rd best job in the big 12.

Oklahoma State has more of a cultural (and possibly monetary, don't know the figures) investment in basketball than OU, so they'll have the same media market advantage in OKC. Plus, here's the thing, nobody in Dallas really gives that much of a crap about college hoops, but those that do divide up the shares pretty equally between the four texas schools, OU, OSU, and KU. OU doesn't have an inherent advantage over any of those schools I listed in terms of tv market when it comes to basketball besides Baylor and maybe (MAYBE) Tech. Sure, OU may have tons of money, but so does UT and A&M, and OU can't flood their Texas pipeline for recruits like they do in basketball. When football recruits in Texas go to OU over A&M, Tech, Baylor, and occasionally UT, there is a little bit less of a pushback since, well, they're OU football. But if you're an elite Texas basketball player, you look at UT, A&M, and KU before you even consider OU. Recruiting in Texas isn't going to get any easier for OU now that Gillispie is at Tech. Plus, given OSU having a better atmosphere, a history about on par with OU's and Boone Pickens being their sugar daddy and bringing state of the art facilities to Stillwater, I'd argue that OSU probably has about the same influence with recruits as OU.

And you can't possibly say that K-State isn't a better job now than it was five years ago. If Frank were to leave, our potential pool of coaching applicants would be of a higher quality than when Wooly left. If we were to make five Final Fours in a row, you bet your ass that this would become a much more attractive job. Success defines a program's place in the national and regional pecking order. A five year period may not mean much to most programs, but 15 to 20 years absolutely does, and for you to deny it means that you're just being obstreperous. Remember when Maryland, Wake Forest, and Arkansas used to be good?

Here's the thing about OU: their fans no longer give a single crap about basketball, they haven't had a boatload of recent success, and their national brand is nowhere near what it once was. You can get by as a very solid program with maybe one or two of those deficiencies (see: Texas fans not giving two shits), but you can't experience all of those factors without a decline in program prestige. I mean, it's not a bad job by any means, and the potential is there for a coach to do very, very well there. But 15 years ago, the up and coming coaches in the world would've banged down the door for a job like OU, and it would've been higher on the totem pole than either MU or NCSU. That's no longer the case.

Success defines a program's place in the national and regional pecking order. A five year period may not mean much to most programs, but 15 to 20 years absolutely does.

fans think success defines a program's place in the pecking order, but they're either wrong, or they're confusing program prestige with job attractiveness.  short-term success does nothing to change how good a job is.  long-term success can, if it translates to increased support (fan), increased exposure, an increased budget and increased admin support (a.d. prioritization).

in kstate's case the facilities improvement makes it a better job.  but not much.  maybe we catch back up with isu or something, but basically it doesn't alter the pecking order within the conference.  the recent success may make the latent support for kstate bball more apparent, but it doesn't make it a better job.  that level of support for a moderately successful program always existed, and a candidate that was interested enough to research the job, or already familiar with it, would know that.

I think Brooks missed again on this one. If Dalonte has taken the job, it's a recent development and happened at the 12th hour. Everybody I know says Pitt's Pat Skerry is the odds on favorite to land the gig.

The official search is down to three people, and while Dalonte interviewed, he was eliminated from consideration. This according to Curtis Malone, one of Dalonte's closest friends.

Incidentally, the funniest thread I ever saw there was some dude told people to post their email and he'd tell them what BV did.  Every page there were 7 or 8 people laughing and making fun of all the morons that were posting their emails and the rest of the posts were morons still posting their emails.  It went about 4 or 5 pages and 3 or 4 days...which is EPIC for GPC.

Kruger Tells TV Station He's Staying In Vegas

Despite reports that UNLV's Lon Kruger is to become the next head coach at the University of Oklahoma, a television station in Las Vegas says they just spoke with the coach and he says he's staying put.

The reports came hot and heavy this afternoon that Kruger -- who just led the Runnin' Rebels to their fourth NCAA Tournament appearance in his seven seasons -- would become the next head coach at OU and some even saying the deal was worth two million dollars a year for seven years.

But, Chris Maathuis at KLAS-TV in Las Vegas reports he spoke with Kruger and that he said he is staying at UNLV.

There has been no word out of Norman on the reports and so far, the only person who has interviewed for the job is Terry Evans, a former OU player and current head coach at the University of Central Oklahoma.

The report could be just the latest one to have OU nabbing a head coach only to have it be debunked. Earlier this week, reports had Illinois head coach Brucer Weber being the guy, only to have him announce he was staying with the Illini.

Others whose names have been linked to the OU job include Memphis Josh Pastner, Marquette's Buzz Williams and even Virginia Commonwealth's Shaka Smart, whose Rams play in the Final Four tomorrow night.

Kruger began his head coaching career in 1982 at Texas-Pan American, taking the Broncs to a 20-8 record in his final season before taking the head coaching job at his alma mater, Kansas State.

There, he guided the Wildcats to an Elite 8 appearance in his second season.

Kruger would go on to coach at Florida, reaching the Final Four in 1994 and later on to Illinois, where his Fighting Illini teams made the NCAA Tournament in three of four seasons.

He also coached the NBA's Atlanta Hawks from 2000 to 2003 and was an assistant with the Knicks in 2003-04 before jumping back into the collegiate ranks at UNLV in 2004-05.

In seven seasons, UNLV won nearly 70-percent of the games he coached and the Runnin' Rebels made the tournament four times, including a Sweet 16 appearance in 2007.

This season, UNLV suffered a first round loss to Illinois here at Tulsa's BOK Center.

In seven seasons, UNLV won nearly 70-percent of the games he coached and the Runnin' Rebels made the tournament four times, including a Sweet 16 appearance in 2007.

This season, UNLV suffered a first round loss to Illinois here at Tulsa's BOK Center.

From what I've gathered, the most critical element of all these coaching transactions is location.  So to show them you're serious, I'd pick up head-to-toe Vegas tourist wear at the airport and change into that before heading over to the T&M.

but look, miami is a crap job.  so the only way martin leaves is if he cares about nothing other than living in south florida (his record does not suggest this), in which case he's gone no matter what.  or if he thinks he's not going to be winning at kstate over the next couple years.  in which case, best he go.

Not sure what Missouri is thinking in hiring Frank Haith, but as of now I have no worries Miami has the resources or Frank Martin has any interest to make a Miami-Martin marriage occur.

It's amazing and not amazing that he continues to make these types of asinine statements.  It's as if he literally is a complete Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

Obviously Frank will have interest, if nothing else to do what is best for his family.  The guy spent 30 years of his professional life there.  The pay scale in the Big XII has been considerably elevated in recent weeks.  What the eff is he paying an agent for if he's not trying to leverage more money with K-State's weakened position.

I think if miami can scratch up 1.75 ish he's gone for sure.  And I think it fits Frank's MO, he's worked his ass off after losing what was probably his dream job at miami high and now he's got the chance to go back.

The question will probably be if they can afford the buy out.

why wouldn't frank leave?  it wasn't like ksu was setting attenedance records at KSU before Huggins/Martin got here.  As a fan base, we gave a sh*t about basketball just as much as Miami does.  Winnning will bring them, just as it did here.  And it's great timing.  With Jake gone and an unbalanced roster, he will have to do some rebuilding/retooling on this roster.  why not do that at home with probably a better opportunity with easier recruiting?  he's f'ing gone.

Meh.

Frank really wants to go home if he leaves for Miami. The best coach in the program's history is Leonard Hamilton. He led them to half (3) of their programs NCAA appearances, and basically built the team that went to a fourth after he left.

Any concern I have is very (very) slight.

Plus, there's a bunch of turds in the ACC for coaches. Frank is instantly the fourth biggest name out of all those pudnuts, and #3 is Gary rough ridin' Williams. He'll be a goddam star.

Frank will not leave K-State for Miami.  U of Florida?  Yes.  Florida State?  Possibly, but not likely.  Miami?  No.  Basketball is the third most popular sport at Miami behind football and baseball.  Also, Miami is in some financial trouble right now.

Wake me up when Donovan leaves UF.  :zzz:

Rumblings that Frank is too expensive for Miami.  Miami still needs to hire an AD, and Alumni only care about football.  According to a local Miami journalist on 610 this morning, Miami is in the middle of a giant budget crisis and all financial support right now is put towards "becoming relevant again in football."  Apparently they had to go to their 4th coaching option in football cause they couldn't afford to hire 1st/2nd/3rd??

Not saying it can't happen.  Locals just don't think Miami U can pony up the $2 mill per yr.  Plus, the question was asked whether Big Alums (as mentioned above) could/would pony up for Frank.  Answer was highly unlikely because they would rather see the football program back at the top before basketball is given much of a shot.  The journalist assumed Miami will go after a no-name coach for around $1.2 mill.

ya this isn't a fashion show so whoever said that steve henson is ugly needs to stick to watching vera wang and realize that steve henson knows more about college hoops in his brain than some of you can get through your thick skulls.


message to pete:  mike alden is a loser ad who only knows how to lose.  look at his track record.  terrible and he's messed up this one too.  who cares because k-state isn't effected only going to get better from all of this.  

when something bad happens it can either kill you or make you stronger, one of those two things only.  if it does not kill you then you get stronger and stronger, day by day by day.  pretty soon you are the big dog from being so strong you eliminate your competition because they are weak.

Not only does fan support not matter, neither does the U's ability to pay $2 mil. WVU didn't pay Huggs more than we were.

what do you think it would take for Martin+Hill+Figgs?  $1M + $.25M + $.15M  

about $1.5M for the trio?  can Miami afford even that?

or would they leave for lower?

why wouldn't frank leave?  it wasn't like ksu was setting attenedance records at KSU before Huggins/Martin got here.  As a fan base, we gave a sh*t about basketball just as much as Miami does.

This take is way off.  Huggs didn't have to win anything to fill the seats.  KSU is a bball school, and we were just looking for any excuse to celebrate bball again.

I agree that Davis is just throwing the natural connection out there, he has no real information.

But the past month has shown us that it really all depends on the agent and how he plays the media/twitter world. If Katz wants this to become a game, it will become a game, and we'll start getting all kinds of weird stuff out of local guys AND Miami people, probably starting today.

FWIW, Frank's current buyout is $1 mil.

This needs to be discussed more.

Miami is struggling to find money to pay football coaches, has no AD, and they need to find $1 million for a buyout?

I just want to say that if Frank goes to Miami he may make the NCAA tourney regularly, but he's not going to win any ACC titles . . . at least in the Big 12 there's pretty much only one school to beat.   As long as Roy and K are in their respective jobs their teams will male genitals punch Frank more times than not.  

So as it's been said, this is really all about where Frank would rather live and work, and if you were a major college basketball coach of Cuban heritage and you had significant ties to a burgeoning Latino/Hispanic American population of high school b-ball talent in Florida.   Where would you rather be?  Miami or Manhattan, KS?

DeCoursey just said Miami can't/won't pay for FM.

Don't listen to them, Limestone.  This is a legitimate talking point.

People, they hired Al Golden.  The U hired Al Golden because they don't have any money.

In all reality, this is the BEST time this job could come open.  They bought out Randy Shannon (which drained them), they couldn't scrape enough money to hire more than their third or fourth option for a coach, and now they have to try and hire another coach at around $1.3-$1.5 million and come up with money for his assistants?

Frank doesn't strike me as the kind of guy that's going to leave his staff behind without assurance they'll be taken care of, and I highly doubt that Currie would agree to hire Underwood and keep anyone.  

If Frank can't go and take his staff with him, or know they'll be taken care of in Manhattan, he'll stay.  I think we've got the leverage here.  I'm with _FAN.

I have no idea what is in Frank's head.  But, IF he does want to go home, why is Miami worse than we were when he took over?  You think South Florida kids care if Miami didnt have years of pre segregation basketball glory like we do?

All it takes is for one alum to step up with cash for a practice facility, and Franks cooking down there.   Do Michael Irvine or Portis like hoops?

Frank will not get the benefit of having Michael Beasley on the team his first year at Miami, but other than that, you are right.

It does sound like K-State has more money than Miami (no idea how this is the case). We also have better facilities.

First let me say I don't think Miami is a real threat to make a play for
Frank Martin. It just seems like a step down.

But there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding Frank's salary. He does NOT make $1.5m per year at KSU. Every contract is different and everyone loves to use the term "incentives." Well, Frank has a very big incentive to stay the full term of the deal. It's a "retention incentive" and it was perhaps the most important part of the contract from John Currie and KSU's stand point.

Frank made $1.1 million this year, probably more than he ever thought he would make, but about half what some coaches of his stature are commanding. It is a well below market value deal with a pair of big incentives after 5 years that would bump his number up to the average of $1.5m if he stays the whole time.

Frank has small kids, genuinely likes Manhattan and KSU and is loyal and thankful to have the opportunity to coach at this level and make a great living.

But don't kid yourselves, the way this stuff is going, Frank Martin is quickly becoming underpaid and bigger threats than Miami will surface if he keeps winning.

But there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding Frank's salary. He does NOT make $1.5m per year at KSU. Every contract is different and everyone loves to use the term "incentives." Well, Frank has a very big incentive to stay the full term of the deal. It's a "retention incentive" and it was perhaps the most important part of the contract from John Currie and KSU's stand point.

Frank made $1.1 million this year, probably more than he ever thought he would make, but about half what some coaches of his stature are commanding. It is a well below market value deal with a pair of big incentives after 5 years that would bump his number up to the average of $1.5m if he stays the whole time.

Frank has small kids, genuinely likes Manhattan and KSU and is loyal and thankful to have the opportunity to coach at this level and make a great living.

But don't kid yourselves, the way this stuff is going, Frank Martin is quickly becoming underpaid and bigger threats than Miami will surface if he keeps winning.

my god, he's just getting warmed up for 2:00

Miami just built a brand new basketball arena.

It's empty for every game, but it is really nice.



It only seats around 8K. They averaged 4763 this season.

Mike Alden is playing chess while we play rough ridin' checkers.

Step 1:  Open the Miami Job
Step 2:  Get a decent coach with a super low buyout
Step 3:  Watch KSU crumble when Frank leaves
Step 4:  RE-take over spot as "second in the north"
Step 5:  Profit.


Prolly has had this planned out since Oregon offered Anderson.

Way too much credit being given here to a uni that starts with Brad Stevens, hops to Painter, limps to New Mexico, then drags their beaten asses to Miami.

The above scenario is slightly less likely than EMAWgeddon's(SP):
1. Pony
2. ?
3. Profit



Also, I am with _FAN on the 10% worry thing.

Lastly:  LOL at MU.  losers.

Frank had a base salary of $1.2 million for this year, it goes to $1.3 million next year, and then add another $100K a year all the way up to $1.6 million.

If he leaves K-State this year, he owes K-State $1 million.  

He got nearly $500K in the form of a signing bonus last year.

Frank will get paid somewhere between $96-$150K in bonuses for this last year, it depends on how the APR score looks.

If my calculations are right he received in excess of $150K in performance bonuses last year.   So all in all, K-State has paid Frank nearly $3 million dollars in the last 2 years.

DeCoursey just said Miami can't/won't pay for FM.

Don't listen to them, Limestone.  This is a legitimate talking point.

People, they hired Al Golden.  The U hired Al Golden because they don't have any money.

In all reality, this is the BEST time this job could come open.  They bought out Randy Shannon (which drained them), they couldn't scrape enough money to hire more than their third or fourth option for a coach, and now they have to try and hire another coach at around $1.3-$1.5 million and come up with money for his assistants?

Frank doesn't strike me as the kind of guy that's going to leave his staff behind without assurance they'll be taken care of, and I highly doubt that Currie would agree to hire Underwood and keep anyone.  

If Frank can't go and take his staff with him, or know they'll be taken care of in Manhattan, he'll stay.  I think we've got the leverage here.  I'm with _FAN.


I agree with your stance, but regarding the Al Golden hire, do you know what he is getting paid there?

Show Cause hearing is in June, per MU coaching discussion last week on 810.  They said that the timing of the hearing sucks because he will be too late to get on somewhere for next season.  So, hire pearl now would be a huge gamble, because we may be doing the whole thing again in June.

Of course, if he doesn't get the Show cause, we would get him cheaper than VCU is paying Shaka.  

If we hire Pearl before the show cause hearing, would we still have to show cause for hiring him? How does the "Show Cause" thing work? Would we lose a scholarship for a few years or something? If that's all that happens, Pearl is definitely worth it.

If we hire him and he gets show caused, my understanding is that we will either have to start the hoop jumping to show why we think he would behave at KSU or oscar would have to be let go and a new search started.  

I have also heard that if we do jump hoops and get him able to coach, that they may invoke some sort of penalty on our team('ship limits, etc) or something like that.  This was just during some discussion I over heard on one of the radio stations a few weeks ago.  Not sure if this is accurate or not.
that girl has some epic tits

Yeah, oscar will not come.  He is too used to outlandishly nice things.  We cannot compare.  I have never seen a pic of oscar where at min 98% of the people in the pic with him aren't amazing looking.

roy had a crap season by winning the regular season ACC champy.  k.

fwiw, i just don't see roy taking over after frank leaves, i just don't see it.  maybe since anything is possible but who knows, not this ksu cats, .

He has to at least consider it. He could put the state of Kansas at center court only with the star on Manhattan. Could be appealing.

I just want to say that if Frank goes to Miami he may make the NCAA tourney regularly, but he's not going to win any ACC titles . . . at least in the Big 12 there's pretty much only one school to beat.   As long as Roy and K are in their respective jobs their teams will crock punch Frank more times than not.  

So as it's been said, this is really all about where Frank would rather live and work, and if you were a major college basketball coach of Cuban heritage and you had significant ties to a burgeoning Latino/Hispanic American population of high school b-ball talent in Florida.   Where would you rather be?  Miami or Manhattan, KS?

The "winning in the ACC is too hard" talking point is 'tarded.  Coach K and Roy are each like 80 and Roy had a cac season last year.  Frank will be very successful
cac season playing in the conference title game?  try new talking points from people who watched the acc all year and who aren't KU fans.

It's easy . . . Frank grinder ball using Frank's kind of recruits does not translate into many wins against Roy Williams and Coach K type teams.   Yes, they'll be the occasional upset, but more times than not Frank will get thrashed by those guys.

If Frank wants to make 3rd place in the ACC his goal in life and regular NCAA tourney appearances than Miami is where he should go . . . and if several other ACC fanbases would just accept that, they'd be better off for it as well.

Don't know whether he could/would stay at Miami at this point, but if the board doesn't approve him he's sure as hell not going to MU and I can't imagine how Alden saves his own ass if this the board doesn't approve the hire. 

Don't really care whether Miami opens up or not though.  I'm bored with the Frank to Miami bbs'ing. It's not gonna happen.  Just loving the MU implosion.  :emawkid:

BITB weighs in:

Quote from: BITB
First let me say I don't think Miami is a real threat to make a play for
Frank Martin. It just seems like a step down.

But there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding Frank's salary. He does NOT make $1.5m per year at KSU. Every contract is different and everyone loves to use the term "incentives." Well, Frank has a very big incentive to stay the full term of the deal. It's a "retention incentive" and it was perhaps the most important part of the contract from John Currie and KSU's stand point.

Frank made $1.1 million this year, probably more than he ever thought he would make, but about half what some coaches of his stature are commanding. It is a well below market value deal with a pair of big incentives after 5 years that would bump his number up to the average of $1.5m if he stays the whole time.

Frank has small kids, genuinely likes Manhattan and KSU and is loyal and thankful to have the opportunity to coach at this level and make a great living.

But don't kid yourselves, the way this stuff is going, Frank Martin is quickly becoming underpaid and bigger threats than Miami will surface if he keeps winning.

Its a phase, seems to be becoming the cool thing to do for the mid-majors. Few and Stevens setting the example.

You don't even hear Few's name tossed around for openings anymore.

Diff is that Few and Stevens will win next year, while Shaka..... :dunno:

I would think that if Shaka doesn't win next year, or the year after, it will be very easy to write him off as his team catching fire from 3 for a few games in a row during the time in NCAA ball that happened to see the least impressive upper echelon teams since the beginning of the tournament.   :dunno:

That said, I understand that there will always be an AD willing to take a flier on a guy who has coached a FF game.

NCSU is only a crap job from a fan expectation perspective.   If NCSU fans ever join the real world and just demand NCAA tourney appearances, 1 out of every 4 or 5 against Duke and UNC, and the occasional deep NCAA tourney run, it's like I said in another post earlier, they'd do themselves a great service.    It's almost like they don't get that the NCAA tourney takes 64 teams now, and that you don't have to win the ACC tournament to make the NCAA tourney.

weird. Jacobsen, Stevens, That dude from Richmond, now Smart. Why don't they want bigger jobs?

How many mid-major guys end up panning out at bigger jobs?

Why not get paid about a million a year and coach in the Valley while being treated like a God?

Yeah, 810 said that Shaka is getting $300K right now. 

He needs to jump now.

Okay, at the very least, the dude needs to go to UNLV or something.

oscar Pearl, Sean Miller. You're probably right the percentages aren't good. But like Dax said, even if you fail, you're still in good shape. Seems like coaches are egotistical and would want a challenge. Can't fault them for stayin where they are at though.

I think the minimum requirement you have to ask is, "Did every school they coach at get better?"  Self's teams performed everywhere he went.  Calipari's teams performed well everywhere he went (save the NBA).  Even Greg Marshall has won everywhere he's gone.  There's a track record of, "No matter where I go, I win," which gives you confidence that they'll do the same at your school.

Guys that have only done it at one mid-major seem risky to me.

I think they've probably gotten some immediate backlash from some donors who aren't totally down with this hire and have decided to take some sort of public stance of due diligence.

He'll get hired by Mizzou if that's what they really want (and I can't believe this is the road they've chosen to go down).

Why?  That would be about the equivalent of going with Al Golden.

The odds of them going after an established NCAA coach right now are probably pretty small.  They have to get an AD and football up and running.  Saving money on a basketball program no one cares about is probably a good idea at this point.

But Miami will likely have to match the $1.2 million yearly salary the 2010 conference coach of the year currently gets at K-State. With Martin's shady record, it ain't worth it.

I'll be honest, Dax.  Your faith in Schulz gives me pause.  Not that I don't love him (I do), I'm just surprised to see the leash you've given him.  Very confidence inspiring.

Well Pan, here is what I know about UPKS:

1.  He's every bit as in to athletics as his predecessor.

2.  From what I hear he wanted/wants the BTF worse than Jon Currie, and is quietly paying a pivitol role in making the BSFS improvements happend.  He wants those projects done badly.  

3.  He knows he's the President and that he's NOT the athletic director, nor is he the "team owner", he hired an athletic director to take care of that stuff . . . I think you understand what I'm saying.

Missouri's expected hiring of University of Miami basketball coach Frank Haith has sent shock waves through the Kansas State fan base with concerns that the Miami job may be attractive to K-State coach Frank Martin. The obvious question is simple: Is it?

The quick answer is no, with a source close to the situation pointing out that Martin, despite being a native of Miami, has "no connection" to the University of Miami. It's more complex than that, however.

News of Haith's expected hiring by Missouri began to leak out of the basketball coaching community Sunday afternoon, the source said, and a potential deal was agreed upon by Haith and Missouri director of athletics Mike Alden on Sunday night. The University of Missouri Board of Curators is scheduled to meet Monday night and will likely approve the contract at that time.

If Haith does leave Miami, it will open up an ACC job in Martin's hometown, where he gained coaching experience at three high schools prior to launching his college coaching career as an assistant at Northeastern.

As of early Monday afternoon, the source said no one from the University of Miami had contacted Martin about the possible opening, but the source expected Martin, who just completed his fourth year in Manhattan, to at least listen to what the school would have to say. Not only does Martin's mother live in Miami, but the 45-year-old coach has a 12-year-old son, Brandon, who resides in Miami.

"They haven't talked, but it would be hard (for Martin) not to listen. They (Miami) would have to commit to doing things the right way," the source said.

There's the catch. Miami is considered the weakest of the ACC basketball jobs, and the Hurricanes averaged only 4,500 fans for home games this season. The source indicated that the school would have to make a serious financial commitment to basketball that far exceeds the coach's pay.

Just the salary, however, appears to be an issue for Miami. Haith was in his seventh season there, and his salary of $600,000 was a little more than half the $1.1 million Martin made at K-State this season. Martin and K-State athletics director John Currie agreed upon a new five-year contract near the end of the 2009-10 season that with incentives would average out to $1.5 million a season over the life of the contract.

Miami is not the only major college job currently open. UNLV is seeking a replacement for Lon Kruger, who was just hired by Oklahoma, but the source said Martin has no interest in that position.

A greater concern is the opening at North Carolina State. According to media reports, VCU coach Shaka Smart turned down overtures from N.C. State and the source said that there is talk in the coaching community that some prominent Wolfpack donors want the school to pursue Martin. It is believed the ACC school could pay a salary approaching $3 million a year to the right candidate.

Forgot about his son in Miami. Dammit.

A tidbit of info on Miami's potential support of a winner.  

In Leonard Hamilton's last year at Miami (they won the Big East that year by the way), Attendance for their final two home games was 6100, and 7500.  That was when they were playing at the 15000 seat Miami Arena.  Three years later they built the BankUnited Center a facility with a maximum capacity of 8000.  Miami doesn't even support their football teams.

2000     58,430
2001     46,162
2002     69,539
2003     58,135
2004     59,134
2005     45,310
2006     41,908
2007     43,589
2008     46,191*



A university located within the nation's 7th largest metro area whose basketball attendance even in there greatest season falls way below average.  

Miami doesn't have fans, and the ones they do have don't go to games.

Yeah, Frank having a son that lives in Miami is pretty huge (unless the kid is a little cachead)
assuming the son lives with his mom, who Frank and/or Anya might dislike?

Franks son (who looks just like CK when CK got to manhattan) is often at games.  one would think frank makes enough coin to see his kid pretty regularly without having to be in the same metro area.

That's what I was thinking. If they can really pay that much, why were they even looking at Shaka Smart, let alone making him their first choice?

The $3M has been the rumored offer for Rick Barnes - apparently, Rick grew up a Pack fan.

The Barnes nonsense has been floating around before they hired Lowe 3 years ago.

They can because they have a lot of money.   The Wolfpack Club, which is a seperate financial entity from the athletic department, but exists only to support the athletic department has a lot of jack.

I don't doubt that NCSU could scratch up that kind of dough but I can't imagine them bringing in a coach worth that type of money.  Sure they have rich ass boosters but that doesn't mean those guys are going to give a Shaka Smart 3 per.   Hell, paying Frank 3 per would be stupid.

It all depends on what the alternative is.  How much MU pay Anderson so they don't end up with Haith? (assuming they could out bid Ark)

How much would you pay Frank to avoid HC Underwood?

Haith is going to fail hard. 

Quote
COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Two Missouri starters have declared for the NBA draft on the same day the school is expected to approve a contract to hire Miami's Frank Haith as its new men's basketball coach.

Juniors Kim English and Laurence Bowers announced Monday that they plan to pursue pro careers but have not hired agents. That means they can return to school if their NBA plans don't work out.

The announcement comes as Missouri curators prepare to meet Monday night in a closed meeting. A person with knowledge of the negotiations told The Associated Press late Sunday that Haith is headed to Columbia after seven seasons in south Florida.

no offense but this confuses you because you seem to be quite dumb about this.  The Miami job sucks any of those guys on those lists would be good hires for Miami.  DePaul is a better job.  Frank Martin is the only proven top tier coach that they would have a shot at even considering, and obviously that consideration has nothing to do with basketball.  Basketball wise Miami has no positive advantage over any other BCS school, none.  It's an absolute basketball wasteland.

There's no way it isn't a hell of a lot easier to convince an 18 year-old kid to go to Coral Gables than to Manhattan, KS.  He'll be able to keep kids that he now loses simply due to location and also be able to attract local players that aren't available here.

basketball players are primarily interested in basketball.  he might get a few that didn't want to live in kansas.  he'd lose others that would want more tv, more coverage.

We all thought accepted the notion that Huggins would be able to recruit much better at WVU. Get the east coast kids and all that. His recruiting hasn't been any better than Frank's. I've decided that location is meaningless when it comes to recruiting.

Amen!  Recruiting is about how your program is perceived.  Very few schools have gotten the positive publicity that K-State has over the past couple of years.  The fact is you can convince an 18-year-old kid to go just about anywhere you want.

Second, Shaka Smart leaves Virginia Commenwealth and replaces Frank Martin at KSU. There is nothing I would like more than to see the Jayhawks get the chance to avenge their Elite Eight loss to Smart by getting two cracks at him next year. This is also unlikely to happen because a) as of my writing this, Frank Martin is still at K-State, and b) Smart is staying at VCU after signing an eight-year extension with a hefty pay raise Monday. But it would keep the fiery rivalry going, and the online message boards would be filled with banter from both fan bases in anticipation for Self-Smart round two.

And yeah, once the practice facility is done, Miami's facilities won't even be in the same stratosphere as K-State's. Like seriously, it's pretty shitty down there. Even their campus is kind of gross. So yeah, I doubt Frank would be able to recruit much better down there.

Just for the record, who here is a giant dumbass and believes that Frank would not be able to recruit better at Miami.  Show of hands please...would like to know who to mock openly to their faces.

:raiseshand:

yeah, agree.  don't see any reason to think he would recruit better.

There's no way it isn't a hell of a lot easier to convince an 18 year-old kid to go to Coral Gables than to Manhattan, KS.  He'll be able to keep kids that he now loses simply due to location and also be able to attract local players that aren't available here.

We all thought accepted the notion that Huggins would be able to recruit much better at WVU. Get the east coast kids and all that. His recruiting hasn't been any better than Frank's. I've decided that location is meaningless when it comes to recruiting.

Amen!  Recruiting is about how your program is perceived.  Very few schools have gotten the positive publicity that K-State has over the past couple of years.  The fact is you can convince an 18-year-old kid to go just about anywhere you want.  

I don't think recruiting was a the major problem for Haith.

In his time at Miami, he brought in 8 Top 100 HS players and 5 more that were borderline Top 100. Five were Top 75 and 2 Top 35. Those players came from Florida (5), Georgia (2), North Carolina (2), Ohio, Texas, New York, and Michigan.

When I look at Haith's teams, their biggest offensive strength consistently was offensive rebounding and in his last 5 years offense was a big strength finishing #50 or better in offensive efficiency. But defensively his teams consistently are average, they don't force turnovers, and they often give up offensive boards. None of his defenses lately have been terrible (>100) in efficiency, but they also aren't great (<50).

Location does matter but in high level recruiting these kids are making basically business decisions that will effect the rest of their lives, so several other factors are going to be a lot more important. I mean, if you just look around at the evidence I think that's pretty rough ridin' evident.

Here's my thinking on this....

If you look at how well Frank has done historically recruiting South Florida, and you look at the number of quality players that are coming out of South Florida right now (http://sfhighschoolsports.com/blog/basketball-boys-blogs/south-florida-players-ncaa-tournament)  it defies all logic to suggest that at a BCS school in the most lavish location in South Florida would not be easier to recruit to than KSU.

Now, this argument is also based on the notion that Frank was able to recruit to KSU when we had no facilities, he had no recognizable name (yet), and we had a fine tradition of sucking the sweat off a dead man's balls.

I am of the opinion that given Franks' now "national name," he could get a greater proportion of South Florida targets than he currently gets today at KSU.  I'd liken it to Howard Schnellenberger...before Howard, they were "giving football tickets away at Burger King" at Miami.

Even a decade ago, when Hamilton was winning at Miami, South Florida wasn't as prolific as it is today...it's a "boom" time for the area, is it not?

I think location breaks ties, or at the very most can make a program that's barely sub-par to another get the commit from some recruits. It's not a major deciding factor. I do kinda think it's more important for football though. Maybe I'm just tarded tho.

Let's put it the other way....how many Kansas/Missouri kids who wanted to stay close to home do you think Frank would try for if he was at Miami.  How many South Florida kids would he try for who wanted to stay near home?  Year in and year out, which number is bigger?

I think Frank would recruit similar to how Frank does now.  You know that the biggest factor in recruiting is who they play for, this is emphasized for Frank Martin because of how he runs his program.  We haven't lost one single recruit in the Frank Martin era because of our location.  We are the only fan base in America that uses this as a reason/excuse.

So, your case is that South Florida is no better of a recruiting area that Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma.  That's what you are going with?  Look, you know more about this than me, but I don't see loads of black people running around the latter...more the former.  My opinion is that black people are better to recruit to play basketball for you, and pretty effing firm in my conviction on that point.  Pretty effing firm.

You know how many Willie Cauleys' there are in South Florida EVERY effING YEAR?  We get one every 5-10 years in this entire state.  ...and people are effing bitching because we can't get him to "stay home."

Give Frank a crack at 5 of those every single year and see how he does.

Population of the state of Florida 18.8 million
Population of Kansas, Missouri, & Oklahoma 12.4 million

Number of top 150 recruits in '11 & '12 class from Florida 10
Number of top 150 recruits in '11 & '12 class from Kansas, Missouri, & Oklahoma 9

I won't even mention the 15 2011 top 150 recruits from the state of Texas and I won't mention that 1 of that 15 is attending a school in Florida.  I also won't mention that of the Texas top 150 kids actually leaving the state that they are leaving for Manhattan, KS, Morgantown, WV, Blacksburg, VA, Stillwater, OK, Fayetville, AR, and New York, NY.

Probably also a poor time to mention that none of the top 150 recruits in the state of Florida are actually staying there.

So, your case is that South Florida is no better of a recruiting area that Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma.  That's what you are going with?  Look, you know more about this than me, but I don't see loads of black people running around the latter...more the former.  My opinion is that black people are better to recruit to play basketball for you, and pretty effing firm in my conviction on that point.  Pretty effing firm.

ALSO, in the above post I meant "you" as in the "you understood" sense, and not in the "you" as in you are black sense.  I have no desire to get my face cratered.  Just wanted to make sure we were clear on that.   go cats.

You're being really irrational and illogical, so before I treat this talking point like it came from ednksu or bookcat, you need to explain where the hell you're going with this point.  Certainly you see the evidence and history isn't on your side, so I gotta know where the hell you're going with this.  

You're much smarter than this, I don't think chum is.

Do you think Frank would recruit at Miami similar to Haith? (though IMHO it is unlikely Frank goes to Miami).

I think Frank would recruit similar to how Frank does now.  You know that the biggest factor in recruiting is who they play for, this is emphasized for Frank Martin because of how he runs his program.  We haven't lost one single recruit in the Frank Martin era because of our location.  We are the only fan base in America that uses this as a reason/excuse.

This is a good point.  Every other fanbase is the complete opposite.  Take for example our sister to the east.  ku fans always talk about Lawrence like it's some paradise on earth.  ku fans actually say things like, "why would a kid want to go to school in the middle of Kansas" when talking about k-state.  They say it straight faced, without even realizing the irony.  I'm fairly certain k-state fans all love manhattan and think its a great college town, but when it comes to recruiting it suddenly turns into some deserted island in the plains.  Really lame excuse without merit.

signed,

K-States dozen or so Rivals 150 recruits since Wooly left

Location does matter

Every single college basketball recruiting class ranking ever released disagrees with you.

Toss out the "traditional" powers (...we are not one of those).  Then, look at the locations.

What I'm looking at is what the Florida schools are not getting, I'm not talking about us.  BTW the only "traditional" powers IMO are KU, UK, UNC, Duke, and UCLA.  Every other good current program is the beneficiary of recent success, hiring the right guy.  There is literally no reason why any BCS school who wants to commit themselves to it can't become Syracuse.

if the recruiting location talking point was valid UCLA, USC, SDSU, CAL and a plethora of other school in So Cal would be dominating every year.   Now UCLA is the only out lying school from that region and that is easily explained by coach, boosters, facilities.

It's my list and I didn't.  They haven't won a national championship in 24 years, recruits are 15-19 years old, in that time frame IU has won one conference title.  They still have good things to offer but Tom Crean can't walk into a living room the way those other guys can.  There are many more schools more relevant to today's recruits.

There's more specialization, and exposure.  College basketball recruiting was still largely regional even 10 years ago.  This helps my argument, larger population bases didn't have to spend a lot of time and money keeping kids near home.  There were schools recruiting nationally but not everyone, now everyone is and more and more kids are being seen.  Khyle Marshall committed to Butler 6 months before they played in the final four last year.  Butler beat Miami for him.

don't have time to address this in the manner it deserves, cause i don't want to miss the start of the 2nd.  but briefly:

don't think location as in nice place is very important.  do think that location as in close to home is important.
don't think martin/miami is very typical of local/out of area recruiting.  he's getting everyone he wants from his friends now, not sure he's gotten anyone that matters from not his friends.  not sure moving to miami changes that much.
martin has friends in miami, also enemies.  don't think moving back will change that.  if anything, proximity makes the hate stronger.
don't think guys now going to duke, kentucky or florida will suddenly choose miami.

finally, no one underrates kansas & kc area talent like kstate fans do.  this area produces good players.

Ok, let's get constructive now.  goEMAWers need to go to UM message boards and monitor the situation closely, and report your findings here.  If they have a pay site that is worth a cac, let's get a subscription going for this month.

Location does matter

Every single college basketball recruiting class ranking ever released disagrees with you.

Toss out the "traditional" powers (...we are not one of those).  Then, look at the locations.

What I'm looking at is what the Florida schools are not getting, I'm not talking about us.  BTW the only "traditional" powers IMO are KU, UK, UNC, Duke, and UCLA.  Every other good current program is the beneficiary of recent success, hiring the right guy.  There is literally no reason why any BCS school who wants to commit themselves to it can't become Syracuse.

How can you not put UCONN in the traditional powerhouses? For a kid who is 15-18, UCONN has won 2 NCs in that time (about to be 3) and gone to 4 Final 4's, and won the Big East in 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2005, and 2006, not to mention winning the Big East tournament. They'd be right up there with Duke in terms of accomplishments in the past 20 years.

Okay, the horrible game is over, the squabbling over the KSU vs. Miami job is hopefully drawing to a close (because KSU is the better job, obviously), and now we can start talking about how much Frank can command for his extension.

I say KSU starts at $1.8 per year plus incentives.  Seems like a reasonable starting point.

Just restructure. Keep the current deal, but add on around 200K per year.  Instead of $1.3 million in 2011-12, $1.4 million in 2012-13, $1.5 million in 2013-14 and $1.6 million in 2014-15, make it something like this: $1.5 million in 2011-12, $1.6 million in 2012-13, $1.7 million in 2013-14 and $1.8 million in 2014-15. Plus incentives.

Then reset the buyout; $2 million this season, then $1 after next, and so on.

If we do end up extending him, I hope it is done right.  He needs to be at $2 million plus with raises for the staff which will allow for a high buyout.  Part of the reason that we are worried about lateral or worse moves like Oregon, Depaul, NCSU, and Miami is that his contract blows.  However, at this point it would appear that we would be bidding against ourselves which isn't a good thing.

Here's something I debated with a co-worker...

I don't know what we're paying Underwood, Figgs, Greenwalt, etc., but if Frank is the loyal guy I think he is, and Currie is the guy I think he is (i.e. he'll go outside the current staff for a coach), something tells me the school that hires him is hiring the whole crew, and Frank wouldn't feel right letting his guys swing in the wind without jobs.  That's the biggest reason I don't think Miami is a threat; they can pay him, but I don't think they can handle the entourage.

Now, my assumption could have no basis in reality, and I could be way off base, but I think we need to keep throwing money at the whole lot of them.  That seems like it's every bit, if not more, likely to keep him here.

His contract is probably just about right where it should be and 1.5 mil plus incentives for the next few years is a great deal for a first time head coach. If another school comes offering with more money we'll have the opp to restructure his contract or not. If his success continues we'll prob restructure it regardless.

I don't know, man.  Market value is skyrocketing, and we had a budget surplus of what?  $4 million?

Snyder certainly isn't the one getting our Powercat pasted all over ESPN.  Deb Patterson isn't going on Jim Rome and getting slobbered all over.  

I guess what I'm saying is that we're paying for Frank Martin: The Brand, which is immensely popular and elevates Kansas State: The Brand.  I think he's worth a $500K bump in the restructure that says 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, etc.

I like your idea, but I think we need to just show him we're serious and just be done with it.  We're paying Snyder $1.85 million to basically act like a Jersey crime lord and give jobs to buddies and relatives with no other job skills, so Frank should get roughly the equal amount for making us relevant on a national scale.

Last year when Frank's contract was redone, all of the assistants got raises too, I believe.  At least that's what Currie said at the press conference anyway.

if i still felt like it was something to do over the summer or next fall, then i'd dump in a ton of retention bonus money to even out the defacto buyout.  could bump up the salary as well or not.  at this level, i really don't think money is going to be what causes martin to stay or go over then next couple years.

If necessary, you pay whatever it takes to keep someone who has gone to four straight post-season tournaments (NCAA 75% of the time) and finished in the top four of their conference every year they've been the coach.

You could end up with Frank Haith if you play serious hardball.

Pretty certain that I said I wouldn't negotiate against ourselves, it isn't needed at this point.  Bumping his to $1.5-$1.7 won't be an option if we have to renegotiate, whoever makes him an offer will offer at least that.  A $200,000 raise, pfft.  

Had this "worth" conversation last week, not having it again.  When you measure worth, consider the revenues of the basketball program now and then what it was before Huggins and Frank.  Really when we are talking about literally millions in profits, a few hundred thousand isn't a big deal to commit to a known entity that donors are happy with.  The shitty football coach makes over $2 million.  I want to become a big time program, we won't get there by being cheap with a couple of dollars.  We have the money, and by the way it isn't "other peoples money."  I donate and I'll donate more if I know the money is being used correctly.

As I mentioned above, you pay to keep a brand.  Kansas State isn't on ESPN all of the time, or Jim Rome all of the time, because we finish in the top four of the Big 12 every year.  We get that because of Frank Martin and the fact that he's good for a clip or a soundbyte.

Frank is one of those coaches that kind of transcends the game because of his persona.  We'll always have cameras on us because the cameras love him.  We'll always have articles written about us because he gives a great quote.  You can't put a price on that because that benefits the program AND the university.  It's free advertising.

Kansas State isn't relevant because of one Elite 8 run.  Kansas State is relevant because Frank is a good story.  Otherwise, we're Missouri, and no one gives a crap about Missouri (as you've clearly seen).

I don't think he is proposing the raise right now.  That being said IF he did get the raise without the price being pushed up by another athletic department you could also throw in the Buzz Williams like $3 million buyout.  The issue problem with waiting is that you run the risk of having to pay more.  There is no doubt that if someone wants Frank it is going to cost a hell of a lot more to match someones offer and bump up a buyout.

This.  A million times this.

Oregon and DePaul offered ungodly sums of money at Frank last year, and he stayed for his piddly extension.

What Frank makes right now puts him at risk for lateral moves and bad moves motivated by big money (e.g. NC State).  You need to take lateral moves out of the equation.  You do that by paying your coach a competitive salary.

What do we know?  LHC Bill Snyder makes at least $1.85 million.  As I'm aware, Travis Ford is the fourth highest paid coach in the conference at 1.8 million.  It only seems fair that he be paid as much as a football coach that isn't providing anything in terms of media exposure or quality results, and in the top quartile of conference coaches for finishing in the top quartile every year he's been a head coach.

Therefore, I want him to make at least $1.8 million.  $500K.  Big whoop.  He's selling out the arena, increasing donations, and the momentum behind his program secured enough money to get a practice facility built based only on private donations (for two programs no less).

To me, that seems like a steal.

Come on Pan. Whatever it takes? Now you're sounding like the tuck fans that are terrified of ever letting go of OB. I rough ridin' love Frank and he should get what he deserves and if another school offers more we should battle to keep him. But once the practice facility gets done you could actually call k-state a pretty good job. And I'm pretty glad we have an AD now that knows this and won't negotiate like coaches are holding us hostage.

Gotcha- just throw money around.

That's really over-simplifying it.

As I mentioned above, you pay to keep a brand.  Kansas State isn't on ESPN all of the time, or Jim Rome all of the time, because we finish in the top four of the Big 12 every year.  We get that because of Frank Martin and the fact that he's good for a clip or a soundbyte.

Frank is one of those coaches that kind of transcends the game because of his persona.  We'll always have cameras on us because the cameras love him.  We'll always have articles written about us because he gives a great quote.  You can't put a price on that because that benefits the program AND the university.  It's free advertising.

Kansas State isn't relevant because of one Elite 8 run.  Kansas State is relevant because Frank is a good story.  Otherwise, we're Missouri, and no one gives a crap about Missouri (as you've clearly seen).

These are all really good points though. This definitely raises Frank's worth. It's like the anti-Snyder effect.

I'm not being all 'sky is falling' tuckish.  I just want people to recognize that Frank's value extends past wins and losses for us.

Also, aside from that, with all of the mid-major coaches scrambling back to their current jobs with long term extensions, you don't want to be in the market for a new coach right now, or so it seems.  You may have to overpay to prevent taking a real step back.

Can you find a coach out there on your radar that has Frank's resume AND out-of-the-box charisma?  I saw one person this off-season, and he just signed an eight year extension with VCU.

After that, it's just a sea of 'meh' and a lot of tier 3 broadcasts because ESPN doesn't care about KSU without Frank Martin on Big Monday with a 'coach cam' glued on his face.

So, yeah, a bunch of conference wins and one conference title in 15 years.  Got it.

Frank already has a really good conference winning percentage, and he has 11 years to win a conference title, so your argument doesn't hold much water.

And thank you for completely ignoring my point about getting Kansas State out there on a national scale.  Since Bill hunkers down and acts like a crotchety hermit 365 days a year, we need to at least acknowledge Frank's value as being the face of our athletic department.

I'm sorry I missed the recruiting discussion. I think the "location doesn't matter" folks are ignoring the long term. I agree there would be little to no difference in the short term. Long term, proximity to a large population base DOES matter. Huggs talked about it quite a bit during his time here - you can't just have underclassmen pop in for an open gym or unofficial visit in Manhattan like you can in Cincinnati or Miami or UConn. You don't think easier access to face time with recruits isn't an advantage? If so, you're so beyond dumbass I don't even know where to start.

Location is not an excuse, and it can be overcome (KU, OSU, and MU really have the same disadvantage), but it is reality.

Excellent points.

As the old adage goes, a bird in hand is worth two in the bush.

I think the strategy is far more sound to continue the heavy financial commitment to preserve what we have in a proven commodity because we could easily be facing a Missouri scenario.  We know what we have in Frank.  The sample size is large enough to deduct that this guy is a hell of a coach, one that historically is in line with some of the best that have ever coached here.  And as you noted maybe one of the most important facet of Frank's value is tremendous ability to elevate the brand for our university.  I mention all of this because the prior 20 years in which the program languished in obscurity before Frank is still fresh in my mind.

If we're in a financial position to do it, I think it's greatly important from a visible demonstration of commitment to elevate his salary again in accordance with the shifting market.  An additional 400 to 500k annually is more that worthy considering the returns, in my opinion.

The only reason Frank's contract looks low is because Dalonte makes so much. Frank should get a small raise, but bumping him up to $2 million per year and paying Dalonte almost half a million is excessive. Keep in mind that we will be looking for a new football coach in a couple of years, and we will need all the money we can get if we want somebody good for that role.

When Frank has the program at a level that it's bringing in $9-$10 million a year, and not $7 or $8 million a year than by all means, give him a huge pay raise.  

Until he proves he can sustain success, recruit at a high level, make the NCAA tourney and finish in the upper half of the conference in the post Pullen/Clemente era he's not worth a huge pay raise.   Next year the per seat Ahearn Fees go up for Basketball, will there be enough enthusiasm behind the program to sell out again?  

He just got a huge pay raise, next year his pay will have nearly doubled over his original contract, he got paid a huge signing bonus, he's on the cusp of getting a $250K retention bonus, he's being paid significant bonuses for things that have nothing to do with winning, plus significant bonuses for doing things that should be expected every year.   He's got perks coming out the ass, and they're building him a brand new $17 million dollar basketball facility.  

It's not like K-State isn't pumping plenty of cash into Frank's pocket for what I consider the baseline of what K-State basketball should do every single year.

The overachieved part comes from the fact that Miami is traditionally a terrible program, and besides Leonard Hamilton it has been. But you are correct, it is a big contradiction to say he recruited well (and he did, his recruiting was very good IMHO) but still overachieved. His teams are simply average defensively and don't pressure (force TOs) at all, it will be interesting to see how that translates to the Big 12/10. His defensive profiles remind me of a Greg McDermott coached team, his offensive profiles actually have some similarities to ours, and his teams play at a pace of about 65 poss/game.

That's really over-simplifying it.

As I mentioned above, you pay to keep a brand.  Kansas State isn't on ESPN all of the time, or Jim Rome all of the time, because we finish in the top four of the Big 12 every year.  We get that because of Frank Martin and the fact that he's good for a clip or a soundbyte.

Frank is one of those coaches that kind of transcends the game because of his persona.  We'll always have cameras on us because the cameras love him.  We'll always have articles written about us because he gives a great quote.  You can't put a price on that because that benefits the program AND the university.  It's free advertising.

Kansas State isn't relevant because of one Elite 8 run.  Kansas State is relevant because Frank is a good story.  Otherwise, we're Missouri, and no one gives a crap about Missouri (as you've clearly seen).

The branding issue is a major point in all this, and one that can't be overlooked. And its noticed, Telep wrote about it in November:

Quote
1. The scowl is the brand
The best basketball teams in America recruit to their brand. Teams who struggle to establish their brand often times wind up navigating the high seas of college basketball without a compass. Your brand or identity can be a style of play like Syracuse's zone or a mindset akin to Michigan State's toughness.
At Kansas State, the brand is the coach. Frank Martin sets the tone and is the face of the program. Each icy stare he shoots at a player isn't met with resistance but respect and the guys truly revere him on his team. Martin recruits guys with a chip on their shoulder and coaches them hard.

When you bring in guys who feel slighted like Jacob Pullen (not a top 100 player) and Will Spradling, they want to prove people wrong. Martin uses that motivation and by doing so he appeals to the next Pullen sitting in his living room watching Kansas State gang up on higher-rated prospects and teams. Martin is the brand and right now it's strong and appealing.

We have something that can't be replaced easily if you let it go. When Kruger left K-State still had a brand as a program. We've been through Huggins, Beasley, Walker, and Pullen in the last 5 years, but when you ask 95% (or more) of the public about K-State basketball, most will mention Frank Martin first. This is really an amazing thing, I think we are so close to it as fans we really don't realize how amazing it is, especially when a big part of the star power in college basketball is from the coaches, past and present. From Wooden to Knight to Coach K to Calhoun. Players come and go so often, the face of programs either becomes their tradition/success, their coach, or eventually both. All signs point to us having at least the beginning stages of that, it would be stupid to let that go because we're too cheap to pony up another 300-500K per year.

This is just part of the issue and challenge of college athletics right now though. I don't disagree with anything you said, but when other programs are overpaying (just look at Ford at OSU, Kruger at OU, and even Haith at MU) in our own conference, it forces your hand a bit. Especially when you have what has been talked about before, one of the top "brand" coaches in the league. Granted, it is still early and there is still risk involved, but the first 4 years and some sustained success have shown that its probably worth the risk.

Kansas State isn't relevant because of one Elite 8 run.  Kansas State is relevant because Frank is a good story.  Otherwise, we're Missouri, and no one gives a crap about Missouri (as you've clearly seen).

The branding issue is a major point in all this, and one that can't be overlooked. And its noticed, Telep wrote about it in November:

Quote
1. The scowl is the brand
The best basketball teams in America recruit to their brand. Teams who struggle to establish their brand often times wind up navigating the high seas of college basketball without a compass. Your brand or identity can be a style of play like Syracuse's zone or a mindset akin to Michigan State's toughness.
At Kansas State, the brand is the coach. Frank Martin sets the tone and is the face of the program. Each icy stare he shoots at a player isn't met with resistance but respect and the guys truly revere him on his team. Martin recruits guys with a chip on their shoulder and coaches them hard.

When you bring in guys who feel slighted like Jacob Pullen (not a top 100 player) and Will Spradling, they want to prove people wrong. Martin uses that motivation and by doing so he appeals to the next Pullen sitting in his living room watching Kansas State gang up on higher-rated prospects and teams. Martin is the brand and right now it's strong and appealing.

We have something that can't be replaced easily if you let it go. When Kruger left K-State still had a brand as a program. We've been through Huggins, Beasley, Walker, and Pullen in the last 5 years, but when you ask 95% (or more) of the public about K-State basketball, most will mention Frank Martin first. This is really an amazing thing, I think we are so close to it as fans we really don't realize how amazing it is, especially when a big part of the star power in college basketball is from the coaches, past and present. From Wooden to Knight to Coach K to Calhoun. Players come and go so often, the face of programs either becomes their tradition/success, their coach, or eventually both. All signs point to us having at least the beginning stages of that, it would be stupid to let that go because we're too cheap to pony up another 300-500K per year.

I agree

don't want to burst your bubble but there's really only two brands:  cacty team and non-cacty team.

1) good team and 2) everyone else

More often than not, the brand of good teams becomes the coach. As long as K-State stays good, Martin is an exceptional brand.

No we're not . . . and we don't need to throw any more money around.   For the amount of money that K-State basketball makes, and for what Frank has done to date.  He's compensated quite well . . . and note, I'm not saying we can't afford to pay him another $500K a year or even more, because we can.   But that puts Frank in the same arena as coaches who have done a hell of a lot a more than he has/coaches with great agents working for stupid schools who pay too much for what they get.

This is just part of the issue and challenge of college athletics right now though. I don't disagree with anything you said, but when other programs are overpaying (just look at Ford at OSU, Kruger at OU, and even Haith at MU) in our own conference, it forces your hand a bit. Especially when you have what has been talked about before, one of the top "brand" coaches in the league. Granted, it is still early and there is still risk involved, but the first 4 years and some sustained success have shown that its probably worth the risk.

Inflation.

Paying Lon Kruger more than $2 Mil goes beyond inflation, especially when you compare the economics of college basketball to the real world.  But it is what it is, if you want to be good and stay good, you have to spend the money.

I didn't mean inflation in a macroeconomic sense (to include the US or the world economies), but a very specific inflation that seems to be occuring with college bball coaches (could probably extrapolate to football, too.)

I have no idea what margins look like, income breakdowns, etc etc, but if we are solidly profitable right now (making many millions of dollars each year) it'd be silly not to spend a little more to keep that, if that's what it took.  I'm with the camp that right now is not the time to be cheap.

Yes, we can take a chance by bringing Frank's pay up, probably close to $2 Mil per year.  

Or we stand firm with his current contract, take a risk that it may not be enough, and then see what we can get on the open market.

Its not hard to see which option seems more attractive (and overall less risk) to me.

Okay . . . I guess if it means assuring at least staying interesting in hoops one way or or another, give Frank a big fat raise and join the 3rd choice and that's taking a risk.  

I supposse if it takes $1.8 or $2 million a year to finish 3rd thru 5th  in the conference (because with Frank's recruiting that's the best it's ever going to be and I'm okay with that for the most part) and making the NCAA tourney most of the time . . . then so be it.

But while I'm all about spending big money when it's merited,  I am against spending stupid money . . . and paying Lon Kruger $2.2 million a year is stupid, and paying Frank $1.8 to $2 million a year is fringe stupid at this juncture and IMO.

Fair enough.

If we did give him more money, I'd advocate keeping the same salary structure and increase the buyouts. Yesterday I said 200K, but I'd probably go 400K to 500K now.

$1.7 million in 2011-12, $1.8 million in 2012-13, $1.9 million in 2013-14 and $2.0 million in 2014-15.  Then increase the buyout to $2.5 million this year, $2.0 million next, and so forth. Maybe up the incentives slightly, but not a lot, just bring up the guaranteed money.

Mellinger is trying the "pure volume of words" approach that JOPO used to get a huge raise.  Churn out 10's of thousands of words daily and hope to catch some attention.  It is failing pretty badly right now, but couldn't hurt considering McClatchey has to be losing their ass and the Star is now roughly the size of the Pitch...the Sunday edition.

Until he proves he can sustain success, recruit at a high level, make the NCAA tourney and finish in the upper half of the conference in the post Pullen/Clemente era he's not worth a huge pay raise.


The problem I have with that example is that this is the second time we've heard that....except before, it was "let's see how he does after Beasley/Walker."

I don't think we need to throw tons of money at him, but I think we're past the point of wondering if he'll keep kstate at a high level.

No we're not . . . and we don't need to throw any more money around.   For the amount of money that K-State basketball makes, and for what Frank has done to date.  He's compensated quite well . . . and note, I'm not saying we can't afford to pay him another $500K a year or even more, because we can.   But that puts Frank in the same arena as coaches who have done a hell of a lot a more than he has/coaches with great agents working for stupid schools who pay too much for what they get.

Pay raise would not as much be about the value of Frank, but insurance against this.

Dear Wolfpack Family,

I am writing to share with you the status of the search for our new head coach for men's basketball. There have been telephone conversations with successful coaches that did not develop into meetings -- sometimes because we did not wish to pursue those coaches further and sometimes because the coach involved is happy where he is.

The conversations have been candid. We have not tried to sugarcoat the challenge of rebuilding our basketball program. Our absence for 5 consecutive years from the NCAA Tournament was noted by each coach as evidence that the program is in poor shape and will require a special effort to rebuild.

Finding a coach with the fight and fire to do this job has been a challenge. That said, we will find an excellent college coach who shares the vision of what State Basketball can become and is up for the challenge.

I realize there are multiple rumors surfacing about the nature of the search on websites and in newspapers. Once our new coach is hired, I will be in a position to bring perspective to a number of those rumors. But, right now, we need to remain focused on finding a talented collegiate coach who is a fighter, full of confidence and appreciation for the opportunity to lead our basketball program back to national prominence.

That will happen in spite of those who believe this cannot occur.

Wolfpack Basketball is destined for a revival. We will accept no less. Please keep the faith while we continue the search. Your emails and text messages of support have meant everything to me. I am blessed to be your AD.

In the Spirit of the Pack,

Debbie

btw, lol @ mu hiring a coach with ties/experience recruiting in texas, new york and florida.  couldn't have chosen anyone more eff kstatey.

Do you think he can win at MU? I don't think he'll be worse (at least not much) than Anderson, but I don't think he'll contend for the league either.  I think his style is sort of McDermotty, but with better athletes and good oboarding, could be worse.

On NC State . . . lots of talk of Gary Williams poisoning the water.   But here's the deal, did Yow and Williams not get along because Yow wanted more wins, considering that Gary hasn't produced all that much since his national title run, and he's noted to have gotten lazy on recruiting, and gotten militant about the whole AAU situation?   Or is it because she's just a b_tch?   Now back in the day, I was around quite a few D1 women coaches, and I will say that most of them were psychotic b_tches (which is way beyond the typical a$$hole you get out of their male counterparts) . . . so maybe that carries forward into female athletic administrators as well.

When wearing my Powercat in Washington state, comments from total strangers will invariably start with one of two subjects,  LHC Bill Snyder or "that coach" referring to Martin, most people don't know his name but definitely his persona, these two men are the face of my University to millions of otherwise unaware heathens, I say pay Martin whatever we can afford and slap on the huge buyout clauses suggested.  Its hard to put a price on the good publicity those two men bring in.

that drew number is not correct.

Hard to pin down since they don't have to release to the public. I saw closer to .5 mil, but he also got a new deal after their run last year I believe. In any case, I don't think its up there in the middle.

by using that list, Frank obviously deserves to be somewhere between Ford and Kruger.  

Yes, even if Ford is way overpaid (and his is).

I would be good if Frank was at 1.8-1.9 mil.

As with any person in HR, or ADJC in our case, it's their job to retain personnel at the absolute minimum while keeping them content. It's also their job to know what that number is, which includes just enough to scare away other suitors. If that number is what Frank's current pay is, then so be it, no need to pay him more. If KSU needs to bump it up to meet a new number, then so be it. I don't believe that number to be more than $2M by any stretch.

I don't think the point in the current pay Frank discussion is how much we can afford, I think its whether or not people think he's worth paying in the upper 1/3 of Big 12 coaching salaries. I think he is.

I really don't understand how people can think he isn't.

Quote
...that he is eligible for an extension.

The contract, signed in April 2010, lists specific criteria that can trigger the negotiation of a new contract. They include K-State advancing to the Sweet 16, earning a 1 or 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament, finishing in a tie for third or better in the Big 12 regular season standings, winning the Big 12 Tournament or Martin winning Big 12 or National Coach of the Year honors before the conclusion of the 2011-12 season.

By finishing 10-6 in conference play this season, and tying with Texas A&M for third, Martin has met that criteria.

According to contract language, Martin and K-State athletic director John Currie are now supposed to, “agree to negotiate in good faith from April 1, 2012 to May 31, 2012 a modification, extension, or revised employment agreement.”

If they fail to reach an agreement during that negotiation period, the amount of Martin’s buyout, which is currently $1,000,000 shall immediately become $500,000.

no reason to pay him more imo. and i also disagree that everyone should make $4m per.

ok. let's say that this is actually true. i don't believe it to be, but for arguments sake we will say that there is no reason at all to pay frank more money. none at all. that still doesn't explain why someone would be against it. is there a reason to not pay him more that i'm missing out on?

I would say jealousy but in your scenario everyone makes the same so that doesn't even make sense.  

forget about the hypothetical four million scenario. lets just assume that we are talking about present day earth and why someone would be against frank making more money. i don't see why someone would be against this.

Speculation is not "flying" in South Florida. There are about 75 posts (over a three-day period) on a Canes message board. There has been nothing written in the newspaper, at least from what I've seen. There's been a blog post or two — but nothing with substance.

Dan Le Batard talked about Frank Martin on his show yesterday but after three minutes moved on to more interesting topics, like a white woman giving birth to a black child while her white husband ( :horrorsurprise:) freaked.

I have been listening to Miami radio all day today. Frank Martin's name has been mentioned exactly zero times.

Right.  You can renegotiate at any time, but KSU is obligated to renegotiate now, and if the parties fail to reach a new agreement, Martin's buy-out gets halved on June 1 [2011, I assume it means].  (This is according to how Kellis reports the contract, not my own research.)

Quote
Update: UCF head coach Donnie Jones and Florida State assistant Stan Jones are two others rumored to be candidates for the Miami opening.

Donnie Jones jumped out to a quick start in his first season at UCF and led the Knights to a 21-12 record. But as the Orlando Sentinel points out, there is some question as to how much better of a job the Miami job would be. He already has a good thing going at UCF and is set to return sophomore guard Marcus Jordan and sophomore forward Keith Clanton.

Stan Jones has previous experience coaching at Miami and could be a viable candidate for the job, having served as a Hurricanes assistant under Leonard Hamilton from 1996-2000. He then followed Hamilton to the Washington Wizards for one season before joining him again when he was hired at FSU.

---

As we explained earlier, Kansas State coach Frank Martin appears to be a perfect fit for the Miami (Fla.) coaching vacancy (which should open up when the news of Frank Haith to Missouri becomes official). However, is it really the best fit for Martin? Eric Bossi of Rivals makes an interesting point that while Martin is by far the most qualified, Miami may not be a better job than K-State. Also, with what Martin has established in Manhattan, would he want to take a job that clearly does not have a similarly excited fan base.

*********

Adam Zagoria of ZagsBlog.com tweeted late Sunday that, according to a Division-I source, "Miami is Frank Martin's 'dream job.'"

Sun Sentinel sports writer Dave Hyde writes this morning that the Kansas State coach is "the obvious, first rumor at the new guy."

Hyde adds: "On one level he fits the bill: A Miami guy, a Cuban-American, a coach who's won at Kansas State. There also are some questions about how he carries himself and runs a program to be answered."

One potential sticking point could be whether the Miami administration is willing to go from someone like Frank Haith, viewed as an all-around likable person, to a more fiery and intense coach like Martin.

 :runaway:


There isn't anything to talk about.  Considering the fact that Miami has no real AD, my guess is that this isn't going to be a quick search, nor are they going to be able to get a lot of money together quickly to make a play for a buyout, hire our staff, etc.  Basically, they're giving Currie all of the time in the world to contact Frank, have "the talk" about Miami that we all knew would eventually happen, and he's go time to listen to Katz and figure out what his next step is.

I don't have any fears because John Currie vs. Interim AD probably has a pretty big strategic advantage.

Eric Bossi of Rivals makes an interesting point that while Martin is by far the most qualified, Miami may not be a better job than K-State.

lol.

Martin addresses coaching carousel
A couple excerpts from Frank Martin's interview this morning on Tim Brando's radio show:

Brando: Your name keeps popping up with Vegas, it's popping up a little bit with Miami. Frank, are you involved at all with any other jobs or is K-State where you are going to be for quite some time?

Martin: "No one has called me, Tim. I've got a great job. I work with great people. I look at it like this: 10 years ago as we speak, I was a Division I unemployed assistant basketball coach collecting no paychecks, having no idea how I was going to pay my rent or my son's daycare bill. Ten years later, I'm at a great place. If people want to throw our name out there, I look at that as a compliment and I look at that as being lucky and fortunate that I'm in a good place right now and that people out there respect what we've done.
"But, I haven't talked to anybody. In this business, it's hard to ever sit back and say 'never say never,' because then you get called a liar. I have a tough time lying. It's not what I do. But I'm extremely happy. I'm not going to tell you there's never going to be change, but I'm at peace where I'm at right now."
Brando: "You're at a place that gives a damn, and I think that's important to coaches. They work for people who really do care about their program ... Sometimes the grass isn't always greener, is it?"
Martin: "I'm not one to brag. I rarely speak about myself or opportunities I've had. I'm not at Kansas State right now because I haven't had opportunities to make more money elsewhere. I'm at Kansas State right now because of what you're talking about. We've got an incredible community. It's a great university. I remember getting here five years ago and everyone saying, 'Why are you guys going there? Why would you go there?'
"In my five years here, I continue to learn about the incredible history and tradition of this basketball program. It's our mission to continue to build it and hopefully be able to get back to the level it had once upon a time."

wonders why Chris did not ask his friend Wildcat about this one before writing his column, especially when you were warned about how to fill out your NCAA bracket regarding KSU. It appears all Iowa eyes are on Martin when KSU plays. Martin is a real sideshow. Martin and Dalonte Hill are pretty fair recruiters but Brad Underwood and to a lesser degree, Matt Figurs, do most of the coaching. Underwood had to beg and beg Martin to change the offense at midseason. Martin specifically coaches post players and they have been a dismal failure. Hill recruits, fathers children, and drinks to excess.

This is one Wildcat that would be thrilled if Martin and Hill took their act to Miami. Hopefully the AD, John Currie, would immediately hire Underwood as head coach. Underwood is a KSU grad that was a head coach at the juco level in Florida until Bob Huggins wisely hired him as his primary X & O assistant coach. Both Huggins and Martin have used Underwood in a like manner that Fred Hoiberg uses Bobby Lutz.

Miami has contacted Katz, I have no doubts about that. I'm sure there has even been some talk back and forth, and probably with K-State as well. Honestly, Frank would be dumb not to have Katz have discussions with open jobs. I don't expect Frank to have some sort of blind loyalty and I'd actually be disappointed if he did.  I'm just glad Katz doesn't have a history of using to various media members to play the game.

The thing is, if they reach out and Frank isn't interested, and that gets out, then it's perceived as an even worse job.  It behooves both parties to keep things discreet, at least involving Frank.*

As I understood it, Haith was making $600k but it would cost Miami $3 million to terminate his contract this year, which is really why they were going to wait until next year to drop the hammer. And it was pretty obvious that he was going to be fired since he only had 2 years on his contract and there were not discussions of an extension.

3.0 over two remaining years.  haith was well paid.  no idea how the 600k rumor got started.  maybe what he was paid when he started seven years ago.  martin actually made 1.3ish this year, the 1.55 number you always see is the average of his contract, and includes all his signing and retention bonuses.

miami's a.d. budget is over 60 million.  they aren't poor.

Post by: wabash909 on April 06, 2011, 11:13:16 AM
It looks like he had an escalating contract that started at 400k and incrementally increased by 50k annually.  He was set to make 650k next season from what I can gather.  I guess I find it hard to believe he had upwards of 1.1 million in additional incentives.  I also doubt his top assistant was making 450k.

The amount of wealth amongst some of the prominent Miami alumni is pretty amazing and I guess they could empty the coffers for the right guy, but I just don't see how this adds up financially.

It looks like he had an escalating contract that started at 400k and incrementally increased by 50k annually.  He was set to make 650k next season from what I can gather.

link.

Its hard to find much detail, probably because Miami is a private school. All the articles about him leaving did mention 3 mil and 2 years left, but I'm not sure that meant 1.5 mil per year.

I did find this while trying to find more details:

Quote
oscar Pearl would be exciting, but he's still crouching around under the anvil of an NCAA investigation. Miami President Donna Shalala has no time for shady dealings, or even the suggestion of poor institutional control.

That's why Kansas State's Frank Martin has no logical chance at coaching the Hurricanes. He's a Cuban-American from Miami and a proven winner, which is cool, but he also had one of his state titles at powerhouse Miami Senior High School vacated because five star players allegedly lived in other districts.

And the BP post is a bit concerning, by my _FANpomloseFrank% is still less than 30%.

Could be nothing.  Could be that they didn't think on Monday that there would be a willingness to offer a high enough salary to attract a good coach and they heard by Wed that there will be a decent salary commitment.

in one of the earlier articles, it was mentioned that miami would waive any buyouts, allowing haith to leave without penalty.  so i don't see how 3 million over 2 years isn't something more or less like 1.5/year.

I had this idea that you could get one of those cell phone holders for like an iPhone or Evo or something and put it on your belt right where the buckle is.  Then you have this app with a bunch of preloaded images of belt buckles on it.  You could change the image as you wanted.  You could also upload custom buckles (like the one above).  You'd pay like $10 for that app right?  I knew it!

Frank Martin's agent says no contact with Miami

MANHATTAN — Frank Martin continues to be mentioned as a likely candidate for the open basketball coaching position at Miami, but as of Wednesday afternoon his agent had not been contacted by Hurricanes officials.

"I have talked to no one from Miami," said Richard Katz, of KMG Sports Management. "I hear the same rumors as everyone else, but no one has called me about Frank."

During a Tuesday interview with Tim Brando on a nationally syndicated radio show, Martin said no one had contacted him, either.

"No one's called me, Tim. I've got a great job. I work with great people," Martin said. "... I'm at a great place. And if people want to throw my name out there, I look at that as a compliment and I look at that as being lucky and fortunate that I'm in a good place right now and that people out there respect what we've done here."

But Martin, who has turned down interview requests through K-State officials, went on to tell Brando: "In this business, it's hard to ever sit back and say, 'Never say never,' " when asked about the possibility of accepting a new job.

Miami interim athletic director Tony Hernandez has told media in south Florida that he is looking at 20 candidates to replace Frank Haith, who was recently hired at Missouri, and would prefer to make his selection in less than a month.

He mentioned no specific names, but has hired the Atlanta-based consulting firm, Parker Executive Search, to assist in the hiring process. N.C. State hired Mark Gottfried on Tuesday.

Katz said he had not been contacted by any search firms on behalf of Miami, either.

Another possibility for Martin right now is a contract extension with the Wildcats. He agreed to a new contract in March 2010 that pays him an average of $1.55 million a year through 2015.

By guiding K-State to a third-place finish in the Big 12 this season, tied with Texas A&M, Martin has met the criteria in his contract to become eligible for an extension.

According to contract language, Martin and K-State athletic director John Currie are supposed to "agree to negotiate in good faith from April 1, 2012 to May 31, 2012 a modification, extension, or revised employment agreement."

If they fail to reach an agreement during that negotiation period, the amount of Martin's buyout, which is currently $1 million, drops to $500,000.

K-State athletic director John Currie could choose to bump up that timetable to put an end to the speculation surrounding Martin. But Katz said he has not spoken with Currie about a new deal, saying that is not a current priority for Martin.

"Any coach with an existing contract, whether it's Frank or anyone else, they're always eligible for a contract extension," Katz said. "At this point in time, I have not talked to Kansas State about a new contract.

"Frank, when he signed his new contract last year, was very pleased with it and thankful. He's a loyal guy, and he likes Kansas State. At this moment there is nothing else going on."

It's a search firm.

If anything, that helps us, IMO.  My understanding of these search firms is that they like to keep it within their network to propagate business.  For example, a coach or agent gets affiliated with a search firm, and like an MLS listing, they become part of the network.  Generally, if you're not a part of the network, you don't get suggested as a candidate.  It gives coaches and agents a reason to affiliate with that search firm.

If there's a list of 20 people, and Frank hasn't been contacted, it says to me that Miami is using a search firm Frank or Katz isn't affiliated with, and the interim AD is probably going to go with the safe play and just use the search firm all of the way.

Also, if they're saying they want this wrapped up in a month, GMAFB.  This shouldn't take more than a week or two if they had their cac together.

Not sure what this has to do with Snyds.  He had plenty of schools wanting to hire him back when the DoD was getting going and had every reason in the world to leave the worst program in history.  If anything, this would just further cement the fact that coaches are truly loyal to few things and most will jump when a better situation appears.  This isn't a Frank or Bill situation, it's a Frank may like Miami better than MHK situation.

I am enjoying the Uneducated Powertards trying to convince themselves that Miami doesn't have the facilities.   Hey dumbasses, Miami built a brand new on campus arena 7 years ago, with all new basketball offices etc. etc. etc.  Right now they're raising the money to build a new practice gym on to that facility.  

But this, "they don't have the facilities" BS they keep spewing over and over simply isn't true.

agree on their ability to pay, if they choose.  not only do they have plenty of money already (apparently spend a crap load too, but still, when the money's there it can be spun around to find an extra 500 k or mill or whatever is needed), but iirc the acc is also getting a new and substantial shot of tv money in the next year or so.

A nice DII facility.  Emporia State should take notes.  The thing holds 8,000 people or a little more than the EMAW student section.  Miami is a crap job.

Yeah, its hard to argue that Miami couldn't claim commitment to facilities, though IMHO those facilities are much more like a great mid major program than high major. And there is no question that they can pay 1.5-2.0 mil if they want to. But none of this can replace the fact that it has proven over and over that as a program it is very difficult to support basketball at a level to win big, even when they are winning at a decent rate. Its telling that in the first season of their new arena, they didn't even average 5000 fans.

John Currie isn't worried?

From the K-State Sports Extra e-mail this morning:
"As long as we earn the support of our fans, we want to continue to do this in at least one of the two locations every single year," said Currie. "It gives our fans of south-central and southwestern Kansas, or in the Kansas City area, the opportunity to cheer on coach Frank Martin and our student-athletes, who perhaps otherwise couldn't get to Bramlage Coliseum."

Sorry, been off the board for a few days. Can't remember exactly what I meant at the time but I think it was probably in reference to the kind of place that can actually keep a good coach for an extended period of time.

I'd like to 2nd the thoughts on Parrish really being on the cutting edge there.   An ACC school located in Miami, FL with a fairly significant D1 basketball recruiting base in its back yard can turn it around if they commit to doing so . . . that's some cutting edge crap right there.

BiTB, Jr.   Is claiming frank "floated" this story to Gary Parrish to tell Miami he is interested in the job. 

He is good.  Obviously that is the easiest/most effective way to get word to Miami acting AD.

Doesn't matter.  If the AD has already paid money to a search firm, and the search firm isn't floating Frank's name, the odds are pretty low that he'll get in the mix unless he does something to get involved with said firm.

Good article by @GaryParrishCBS on Miami & Frank Martin. That said, I don't expect Miami to do what it would take to hire Martin.

northstarbball, aka the nicest recruiting guy that exists, and the only one besides zagoria that's nice to kline calls parrish a dumbass.

so, who is Miami's Eddie Fogler?  Art?  Shakey?  Cause to me, that's all Miami needs to get Frank.  Someone to convince them (miami) to do it.  Miami doesn't really have to do anything but say "yes".

That's true. And granted, nobody gets more excited about things we should expect than K-Stateo. But I think part of the optimism at least from non retards is from the fact that we've been doing pretty well despite not having a basic advantage that pretty much every self respecting basketball programs has. I can understand some excitement from that viewpoint.

It's okay to rub one out over the actual facility itself because it's going to be pretty gosh darn nice.   The reason to be pissed about it is, when you understand that an AD making HALF of what Tim Weiser was paid, made this happen in a little over a year, while Tim Weiser drug his ass around for 2 to 3 years on this project and wasted a lot of people's time talking about bullshit like storage space, and outdoor loge boxes in the football stadium.

i think the fact that franks people are putting stuff out there means that frank wants more money (just like last time).  or wants the fan base to start tapping john's door with pitch forks just to let john know who his daddy is just in case john thought frank was somehow easily replaceable.     

imo, frank doesn't use his agent.  he uses his people.  which looks far better and is an incredibly smart way of doing things.

So how is this going to effect recruiting?  Is he out recruiting now or has there been any change from this normal recruiting practices due to these rumors?

Unless something changes, our class for 2011 is complete.  

I'm a little confused.  We have to replace Pullen, Kelly, Asprilla and Judge.  We have signed Diaz, Gipson and Rodriguez.  What am I missing?

Omari & 95.  Both will want a 'ship.  One won't get one.

But (and here is where the BITB part comes in) he said maybe ADJC isn't going to talk to Frank so Frank goes to Miami then he can hire his bro Pearl, BITB spins it again

pearl is not an option for at least a year if not two. everyone says he will get hit with a show cause (i think his hearing isnt until june but i might be wrong on that). and if he does he wont get hired by anyone for a while. most people think he will go to tv for a couple years then prob hop on some small school job and if that goes well then get a real job. as far as I know not only has there never been a coach hired with a show cause no school has ever interviewed a coach that is under a show cause. pearl is toxic right now and not an option for anyone next season

Pearl's next coaching job will not be a small school.  If he is available without penalty and no more looming potential for penalty, plenty of schools would go after him.

He would be fantastic on TV.

Simply put, you all have wear at my soul. I compare you all to high school chicks spreading rumors. Would you all like a jolly rancher to go along with your zima?

I am leaving for a while. Not really sure when I will return. I am sure almost positive that there are other websites that would pleasure me more right now than you all.

I hope you all are happy. You all have a lot of growing up to do and I hope that you find it.

Thank you all and have a great day,

They jerked each other off about how much press the earlier interview got, and about how the local newspapers guys are upset that Frank talked to Brando and not them.

i'm a little outraged about their podcast description of the martin interview claiming that the interview got emaw all outraged.

Quote
Another national report – Martin has declined interview requests from local outlets – stated Martin would “walk on coals” to coach Miami, which suggests he's at least looking for a salary bump.

i think it's important that this be what comes out of this, regardless of the outcome.  not the inevitable tuck talking point of "martin said he was loyal".  i mean, apparently john can't get along with a coach who's:  
-had more success in a sport than the program has seen in 20+ years
-doesn't/hasn't gotten in trouble with the ncaa
-hasn't done something embarassing like get caught f'ing a skank at Coco Bolo's
-loved by tucks and emaw'ers alike
I mean, what kind of dipsh*t can't get along with that.

I'm sure Knight told them to find a coach that emphasizes the shot fake, and most assuredly, he recommended the hiring of Will Spradling.

ADJC should jump on this crap right away.  Imagine if in one press conference ADJC could announce Frank's departure and reveal his replacement.  It'd be like when your girlfriend breaks up with you and you immediately get a way hotter and way dirtier girlfriend the first night out.

No way, you gotta hire someone who has been out of the college game a year or two and made tons of contacts ala Huggins. Now if Martin bolts next year then you are correct.

Quoting guys that aren't players in the hiring process and who don't necessarily know what direction Miami is going is not news, it's speculation. Asking these HS coaches to comment about a situation that remains up in the air — you know, since Miami doesn't even have an athletic director in place — is like asking the weatherman if it will rain two weeks from now.

Don't get me wrong, speculation is fun, and I read it. But let's not act like it gets us any closer to knowing which direction Miami is headed with its coaching search.

Currie wouldn't hire Underwood.  My guess is that Currie would go after an assistant to one of the elite coaches out there.

The only question in my mind is if the Miami idiots are smart enough to extend the offer.  At this point, I don't even think it's about money.  I think he'd go even for a sizeable paycut when you take into account the tax situation in Florida.

I don't think Frank cares if there is an AD in place.  If he's willing to look past the shitty University/fan support, why the eff would he care about the AD?

I do question whether Miami will feel compelled to move on a basketball hire without first filling the AD spot.

It has been over a month since their AD spot was vacated.  You have to wonder how long the process will take for the basketball had coach replacement.  I guess, not that it really matters though, it gives them longer to get their moeny people together.

I'm not 100% convinced that Shalalalala would hire him.  If the AD submitted his name, and the New Times stuff came to her attention, she's going to veto him on the spot given what we 'think' we know about her.  Also, given his reputation as a 'fiery' and intense sideline coach, I'm thinking will hurt him as well.  Like others have said, she vetoed Leach.  Frank is a household name in college basketball, but the reason he is famous to some is why he's infamous to others.  There are a lot of programs, the "U" being one of them, that may shy away from it.  Remember that Miami is a private school that fancies themselves to be a lot more academic than they really are.  They may not want a ranting and raving coach to be the face of one of their most public programs.

Also, as much as we don't care, Frank's name is tied in with Shakey, the CLA guys, etc. down in Miami.  He's kind of associated with all of that craziness that the New Times keeps digging up, and I'm guessing the AD won't be strong enough to fight for him.  They'll go with the search firm and path of least resistance.

Frank lobbying for the job through the national media, or trying to get Art and Shakey to keep saying things like, "If Miami did this, and Miami did that, etc." are things he'd do regardless to try and get a pay bump here if he wasn't interested in the job.  Like I said earlier in the thread, this was his GOLDEN opportunity to get a big extension (or a gig down there), and it would appear that Miami isn't biting at all.  Currie won't extend him without someone actually coming at him, so the longer this drags out, the longer it would appear that they really are moving in a different direction, and he won't get a dime out if what should have been his big windfall.

I try and never miss an opportunity to drag out this 2008 response to one of his articles on Beasley:

he wrote that in an article?? or where?

He emailed me in response to some comment on one of his articles about Beasley's hummer. Wish I remembered the actual comment that got a response. Had something to do with Whitlock being escorted to his new, shitty seat in Bramlage after that article.

I should point out that Meek, much like J Mart, is a home run hitter. All the great ones are. He doesn't waste his time with bunt singles and rinky dink opposite field hits. When there's a big story, Meek will have it.

How many stories of significance has anyone other than Meek and GPC broken on the K-State beat since J Mart left?

Andy Katz:

Quote
Miami: Haith was a surprise choice at Missouri, leaving behind some serious talent in Reggie Johnson inside and Durand Scott on the perimeter. Miami isn't going to go after hometown coach Frank Martin of Kansas State. Former BC coach Al Skinner makes sense, given his previous success in the ACC, but it's unclear what direction the Canes will go at this juncture. Might Florida Atlantic's Mike Jarvis get another shot in a big-time conference?

Quote from: ESPN
Larry Brown has been in touch with UNLV athletic director Jim Livengood about the Runnin' Rebels coaching vacancy, the former Charlotte Bobcats coach told SI.com

Brown, 70, was fired by the Bobcats in December but said in January that he'd like to coach again.

"I don't want to end the way this one ended," Brown said.

UNLV released a statement Friday that interviews were complete.

Amaker isn't going there.  Mooney isn't going there.  Hell, I doubt Davis would go there.  Capel would be a home run hire for them.

I know Capel is probably the best they are going to do, but wouldn't they basically be hiring Haith again?

capel had some weird crap go bad on him at ou.  i'm not sure there's reason to expect that anything similar would ever happen again.  i think he could be good somewhere (not necc. miami, which may be an impossible task).

Wasn't it all about the highly recruited players rebelling?  Is there a chance he wouldn't of landed these players if the better schools didn't opt for someone else due to their headcasedness?  Or did he just lose control?  I'll agree it maybe a perfect storm of mumped that occurred but I'd have to think he had some blame in it all.

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP)—Florida native Frank Martin says he hasn’t heard from the University of Miami about its vacant coaching position and while he and his family are happy at Kansas State he will always listen to other offers.

The 2010 Big 12 coach of the year, who has become wildly popular with Kansas State fans, also said Monday in an interview with The Associated Press that in the last two years he has been approached by several other schools with talk of significant pay boosts.

“I’ve never had any other options but to be at K-State this year. And I haven’t had any desire but to be at K-State this year,” Martin said.


When Frank Haith left Miami last week to take the job at Missouri, Martin immediately became the center of speculation in both Kansas and Miami. Martin, born and raised in Miami and the son of a Cuban immigrant, was a successful high school coach there and seemed a natural fit for the job.

But the Hurricanes have not called, Martin said. He said that was not necessarily a disappointment.

“I love it here,” said Martin, who is 95-43 in four seasons at Kansas State. “My family loves it here.”

He wonders if a misunderstanding about his salary might have discouraged the Hurricanes.

“Everyone’s reporting that my salary is $1.55 million (annually). Actually, my salary is $1.1 million,” he said. “Now, I’m an old high school teacher who was making 32 grand when I moved to Boston, and I’m extremely grateful and thankful for the salary I make right now.

“If I stayed the length of the (five-year) contract and I collect every bonus on the contract, it will average out to $1.55. And you know what? There is a chance that the University of Miami never called because they think I make $1.5,” he said. “There’s a chance just because it was released at $1.55 the University of Miami said, ‘We can’t call him. Why waste our time? We can’t pay him.”’

Martin said many people urged him to pursue the Miami job.

“I’ve had numerous friends call me, countless people in that community begging me to go back home,” he said. “The one thing that’s unfair to the University of Miami is that all the media people, locally and nationally, are saying it’s not a good job. And that’s not right. But UM never called. So I have no idea. And I’m not pursuing other jobs. I’ve never chased a job in my life.”

Although he has no desire to leave, Martin says he would always listen to another offer.

“I’m never going to say I’m not listening to anybody. Someone might call and it might be an opportunity, a new challenge, something that intrigues me,” he said. “It might be an (athletic director) that I’ve known my whole life and he says, ‘Frank, I need you.’ I’m never going to come out and say I’m not going to listen.”

The Wildcats won a team-record 29 games and advanced to the Elite Eight in 2009-10 and Martin became a hot coaching commodity then.

“I’ve had job opportunities here the last two years and I haven’t talked much about them,” he said. “They’ve called, they’ve inquired. They throw numbers at me and I’ve said no thank you. And for major salary increases.”

The Wildcats finished 23-11 this season, ousted in the first weekend of the NCAA tournament by Wisconsin. It was an odd year: Kansas State was ranked No. 3 in the preseason poll and picked as a favorite in the Big 12.

Instead, two post players—Freddy Asprilla and Wally Judge—quit a struggling team and Martin installed a new offense just as league play was getting under way. The Wildcats responded and got hot enough to knock off Kansas and Texas headed into postseason play.

I love it at K-State, BTW did you know I only make $1.1 million a year, I want you to be clear on that, yeah, that's one point one, I mean I could make more with all my bonuses and stuff, but just 1.1 million for now.    


You got that right, one point one million??   But this is my own little paradise you know.





And no one has even asked me to leave this year.  I mean, I love it here and my family loves it here but I would totally listen to someone if they wanted me to coach elsewhere.  I mean hell, all my friends and family have begged me to go back to Miami but they haven't even contacted me or anything.  Totally love MHK though.

eff him (transfers + begging miami to hire him).

we get oscar Pearl.  and incredible bbs'n during off season.  easily worth the pain.  Frank gets paid.  we all win.

The only way it's win-win-win is if we wait one more year, then Pearl will be cleared, and Frank will have had enough of Currie that he's giddy to leave.

Pay Frank.  I am cool with that.  

I don't have a good feeling about our next hire if it happens sometime in the next 3-5 yrs.  Would rather pay frank and keep moving on.

Isn't $1.1M kinda chump change anyway?

Frank has no leverage for a raise if Miami hasn't called.
Miami knows Frank would listen


So why bother admitting the things he said in the last article?

So, with this article now in tow...and Frank has essentially resorted to trying to orchestrate a job offer from Miami through the media, he at this point couldn't give two cacs if he alienates the entire fan base and university that he works for.

If I'm Miami, get on the phone and simply throw out a low ball offer.  You can have him for cheap because it appears Frank is willing to take a considerable pay cut if it means getting the hell out of Dodge.

And this isn't about leveraging for a raise at K-State.  This is about wanting out.

Seems like if he just wanted out, he would have simply had his agent contact Miami directly.  I'm thinking Frank wants more money but, for right now, a better job hasn't presented itself.  Just throw out an article like this, let the KState fans know that he's not getting paid as well as most thought and let everyone know that he is willing to entertain offers from other schools.  Our fanbase will freak out and Currie will pay him more money.  In the next few years, when a really good opportunity is open, he bolts with extra cash in his pocket.  (Possibly to help with his buyout?)

University of Miami officials flew to Boston on Monday to meet with Harvard's Tommy Amaker in an attempt to woo the Crimson coach to the ACC school, multiple sources told ESPN.com.

Amaker, who played and later was an assistant coach at Duke, coached Harvard to its first Ivy League title this past season. The Crimson shared the crown with Princeton and then lost the Ivy League playoff game on a buzzer-beater.

The Crimson then lost at Oklahoma State in the first round of the NIT, finishing 23-7 (12-2 in the Ivy).

Miami is searching for a replacement for Frank Haith, who took the Missouri job earlier this month.

Amaker has already coached in power-six leagues, serving head coach stints at Seton Hall and Michigan, in addition to being an assistant at Duke.

Amaker has told ESPN.com on a number of occasions how much he likes coaching at Harvard and how he wants to coach the Crimson to the NCAA tournament. The Crimson will be the Ivy League favorites next season with the majority of the roster returning, including Ivy League player of the year Keith Wright.

Amaker's chief Ivy rival -- Princeton -- is searching for a head coach after Sydney Johnson abruptly left the school to go to Fairfield.

In addition, Amaker and his wife, who also works at Harvard, have told people around them they love living in Boston and working at the school while trying to revitalize college basketball in the Ivy League at Harvard.

Amaker was contacted by the Atlanta-based Dan Parker search firm last week. Miami is searching for an athletic director, too. The basketball coaching search has been conducted by assistant athletic director Anthony Hernandez in conjunction with the search firm.

The Miami Herald reported that Miami interviewed VCU athletic director Norwood Teague (who just got Shaka Smart to stay on as basketball coach after the Final Four), Cal athletic director Sandy Barbour and Wisconsin assistant athletic director Michael Kelly, for its athletic director job. But the San Jose Mercury News reported Monday that Barbour isn't interested in the position and refuted that she interviewed for the position, saying there was only a phone conversation and there was no interest from Barbour.

Meanwhile, Kansas State coach Frank Martin would listen to Miami and would be willing to go home to his native Miami, according to multiple sources. But those same sources told ESPN.com that the search firm called Martin's representatives and said that Miami and the search firm had no interest in pursuing Martin.

Another coach, who is on Miami's short list, is Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Rob Jeter. Miami president Donna Shalala was a former president at Wisconsin. Jeter was a former assistant coach at Wisconsin under Bo Ryan and if Kelly were to land the athletic director's job that could help Jeter.

I’m sure his agent has contacted Miami directly.  There’s probably been a lot of contact through intermediary channels.

Honestly, I think it’s as simple as he really wants to go back to Miami.

I also think UM sees Frank as unattainable because of his salary and the perceived additional support for his assistant coaches, and has conscientiously not reached out to focus on what they believe to be more achievable targets.

If this was about milking another couple hundred grand out of K-State, I just find it hard to believe that this his negotiation tactic is to insult the current athletic department publically by broadcasting how little he thinks he's being paid one year from a raise and contract extension.  To me, it seems exactly as it appears, an attempt to say, "I’m more within reach than what you may perceive and I'm willing to listen".

And I wouldn’t be surprised in the next few days to see Frank start popping up on their coaching list, especially as their shitty targets start to fall by the wayside.

I'd be massively surprised.

They contacted Tommy Amaker, who coaches Harvard.  Miami has always thought of themselves as the Harvard of the Southeast, and it doesn't shock me one bit that they are looking at an Ivy League coach first and foremost.  Not one bit.

And I wouldn’t be surprised in the next few days to see Frank start popping up on their coaching list, especially as their cacty targets start to fall by the wayside.

It will be their losing McDermott to land Huggins moment.

The hilarious thing is that Amaker will probably turn then down to stay at Harvard and we've got Frank willing to kill a drifter for a rough ridin' phone call.

This is so K-State.

I would imagine Amaker would turn them down if they offered.  They need to get Capel.

I don't quite get the play here...

Frank has no leverage for a raise if Miami hasn't called.
Miami knows Frank would listen


So why bother admitting the things he said in the last article?

Makes no sense.

so miami knows he's willing to work for less than $1.5M in Miami.  obviously.

"Mr. Currie, I really like Miami and I don't make as much as our fans think I do.  Did I mention that I really, really like Miami and that it is better there than you think it is?  Do our fans know that I make $400k less a year than what has been recently reported?"

mr. currie has a copy of martin's contract and knows perfectly well that martin does make 1.55/year.  so having tucker tell him he doesn't isn't likely to be a very effective negotiating ploy.

miami on the other hand, probably didn't know that martin would take their job for anything over 1.1.


there may be something in why this is public rather than private.  obviously, martin doesn't need to use tucker to communicate with either currie or miami.  not sure what that angle might be.

Or he really wants a cacy job in his hometown.

My guess...Currie and Frank had a chat in the last few days, Frank didn't like what he heard, and he's now very keen on looking around.

Ummmm, yeah.

Sounds like his agent hasn't been effective communicating that, so he's now openly begging/lobbying through the media.

It is kind of funny that this is his response in disputing the other media reports from this weekend that he isn't a candidate.

I think it only includes retention bonuses, not performance-based bonuses. I'm not sure where he is saying these reports are coming from, other than the tuck poll.

And none of us can understand why because we have fond memories of Manhattan and K-State. But someone coming in from the outside just tolerates this hell hole and lies straight to everyone's face about how it doesn't suck until a decent opportunity presents itself elsewhere. Hopefully NBAF will help.

My take is that the Miami deciders don't want Frank, whether it's because he yells or because of the demands he'd put on the school to get the program up to snuff or because they don't want Art/Shakey/MiamiNewTimes'MostWanted around, or whatever.  

That kind of pisses Frank off because he at least wanted the offer so he could bend Currie over, or possibly because if he could get all his demands met of course he would go doom it up in Miami.  

Frank is pissed/hurt that Miami doesn't want him and that he lost that leverage and is rationalizing it to the press by saying Currie sabotaged him and made him seem untouchable salary-wise.

Well that's my point.  I don't think 1.5 is untouchable nor do I think they think 1.5 is untouchable (or that they've even considered what to pay him).  I don't think they want him and Frank cooked this theory up because he's hurt.  As we've mentioned, he should've turned to us to get his PR right.

He didn't even have to lie.  All he had to say was, "I've already commented about the Miami job.  Nothing has changed, and I have no further comment."

Simple, easy, and it would be over with.

When K-State started conference season 4-6 and players were leaving the program left and right, plenty of posters on this board were ready to run Frank out of town.  The same situation will happen next season, except Frank won't have Jake Pullen to save him.  

Before the season:  "Selby will teabag Pullen"  - beems

After the season:  "Selby sucks, needs to stay another year and learn to not suck so bad."  - also beems



Things change.  Welcome to reality.

Frank is going to lie low for a couple of years, and as soon as he has any sort of success again he's going to be gone.  It won't matter where it is as long as it isn't Manhattan, KS.  He probably has Bob Huggins in his ear every day telling him what rubes we all are.

Beems is on the money here.  Frank sees the writing on the wall.  The recruits he needs to compete in this league aren't coming to KSU and his stock now that Pullen is gone will only drop.  The time to get out is now and he knows it.  He assumed when this crap went down with Haith to Miami he could just roll out of here and get a fresh start with zero expectations. He'd be home making millions enjoying the crap out of life while he re-built a program.  He would get a minimum of 5 years down there and if crap didn't pan out he could just pass the buck on "nobody gives a crap about basketball down here" and probably go land a good job or assistant job somewhere.  As it stands he is probably going to get his crap kicked in for 2 or 3 years here at KSU, get fired, and have to blow Huggins for a gig at WVU.  

I'b be pissed if I were Frank too. He's no dummy. He knows this ride is coming to an end.

Well, instead of "Pullen is gone" let's use...  Pullen, Kelly, Judge, Clemente, and whoever else he has/will run off are gone and being replaced with three freshman and a sex addict from New York.  The point is... the talent pool appears to be dwindling.

What the eff are you talking about, seriously shut up.  When you replace seniors with freshmen of course it appears that the talent is getting worse.  eff man no one thought Jacob Pullen was going to be better than Cartier Martin.  The stupidity of your post pisses me off.  rough ridin' Wally Judge sucked, it wont be hard for either freshman big to out produce him.

Yeah all this Frank bashing makes sense... cause Pullen was a 5 star recruit, and Kelly wasn't a 1 ppg loser at UCONN.  IMO, Frank did some pretty amazing things with mediocre players (Pullen, Kelly, Clemente) and who cares about Judge...  I dont see why he wouldnt be able to do it again.

I guess we could go back to Woolly, cause that would be much better... and possibly never get to the NCAA tourney again.  Please remember where we came from...

I think it's a mix of Frank being a bit upset Miami hasn't at least reached out, making a bad PR move and getting too honest in an interview, and making a poor play to get a contract negotiation .

I've never been ignorant enough to think Frank doesn't at least have mild interest in the Miami job. I may be ignorant, though, in believing that just because Frank has interest in the Miami job it doesn't mean he hates Manhattan/K-State.

Ok.  I guess what I'm saying is despite some of the stats _Fan posted regarding what we have returning compared to other years, I feel that we are returning less this year than we have since we lost Beas/Walker.  The difference being we felt good about having Judge/McGrudes/Kelly on the way and Clemente running the show.  I'm a bit concerned with our immediate future (2011/2012) given what we are losing and what we appear to be returning/recruiting.  Is that a fair enough assesment?

True, but Frank its likely confident enough to not really think about having a really bad season. After this us all over, Frank will have a press conference and make nice with the local media and this will be forgotten by 95% or more of fans. It will only be brought out again next year if something similar happens again after the season. Still extremely unlikely he's anywhere except Manhattan next year.

Just read the interview again.  I don't think it's that bad.  He's just embarrassed that Miami didn't pick him, regardless of if he'd have gone or been able to work out a deal.

Naturally and not necessarily rationally, I blame Currie.  He should become AD at Miami and him and Shalalalala can tuck each other's shirts in.

CORAL GABLES — The University of Miami's search for a men's basketball coach enters its second week today with no signs the Hurricanes will speak to Kansas State's Frank Martin about the vacancy.

Martin, the 2010 Big 12 Coach of the Year and a Miami native, said Monday that he has not been contacted by UM officials even though he would listen to offers.

ESPN.com reported that UM acting athletic director Tony Hernandez and search committee chairman Paul DiMare were in Boston on Monday interviewing Harvard coach Tommy Amaker about replacing Frank Haith, who resigned last week to become coach at Missouri.

University of Alabama-Birmingham coach Mike Davis has also been cited in various reports as a top contender for the UM job. But, as of Monday morning, UM had not sought permission from UAB officials to speak with Davis, according to the Birmingham News.

The Hurricanes are looking for an athletic director, too.

The Miami Herald reported that UM spent Sunday interviewing candidates for that position, including California athletic director Sandy Barbour, Virginia Commonwealth athletic director Norwood Teague and Atlantic Coast Conference associate commissioner Michael Kelly.

Barbour said Monday, however, that she had not spoken to UM about the job.

"I am not a candidate to be athletic director at the University of Miami and categorically deny having interviewed for the position, as has been reported by some media outlets," Barbour said in a statement.

Hernandez, who is spearheading UM's search, is also in the running to become Miami's athletic director. He has been serving in an interim capacity since Kirby Hocutt left UM in early March to become Texas Tech's athletic director.

Hernandez said last week that hiring a basketball coach would continue "independent of where the athletic director search is at."

Hernandez hasn't spoken publicly since meeting with reporters last week to announce Haith's resignation.

Martin's name was one of the first to pop up in connection with the Hurricanes' vacancy. But according to a UM source familiar with the situation, Martin was informed last week through a third party that he was not being considered as a candidate .

Martin's told the Associated Press on Monday that the Hurricanes may have been turned off by a misunderstanding regarding his contract.

"Everyone's reporting that my salary is $1.55 million (annually)," Martin said. "Actually, my salary is $1.1 million.

"If I stayed the length of the (five-year) contract and I collect every bonus on the contract, it will average out to $1.55. And you know what? There is a chance that the University of Miami never called because they think I make $1.5 (million). There's a chance just because it was released at $1.55 (million) the University of Miami said, 'We can't call him. Why waste our time? We can't pay him.' "

But Martin could also be a victim of his controversial past. He was fired at Miami High for breaking rules that included recruiting Heat forward Udonis Haslem and fellow NBA player Steve Blake. Martin has also had to apologize for striking a player and has been criticized for his behavior on the bench.

UM has previously avoided coaching candidates with cloudy resumes . The school did not interview former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach in December after Randy Shannon was fired as football coach.

Leach expressed interest in the position, but UM was scared off by his past conduct. Leach was fired by Texas Tech in December 2009 for insubordination as the result of his alleged mistreatment of a player.

I'm being serious...

I think Frank is pretty butt hurt right now.  A combination of Currie not wanting to talk extension plus Miami not wanting to talk to him at all...all while Lon Kruger gets $2.2 million to go to OU and Mike Anderson gets $2 million to go to Arkansas, is probably eating at the big chip on his shoulder.

Frank is a guy who feels disrespected a lot.  I get it.  It's who he is, and if I were in his position, I'd probably feel the same way.  However, someone needs to get a muzzle on him because he's starting to look kind of desperate here, and that's not going to endear him to other employers.  He's pretty much the only guy out there openly lobbying for a job right now not named Larry Brown, and it looks pretty bad to basically say, "I'll take less money to go anywhere.  Takers?"

Frank is a guy who feels disrespected a lot.  I get it.  It's who he is, and if I were in his position, I'd probably feel the same way.  However, someone needs to get a muzzle on him because he's starting to look kind of desperate here, and that's not going to endear him to other employers.  He's pretty much the only guy out there openly lobbying for a job right now not named Larry Brown, and it looks pretty bad to basically say, "I'll take less money to go anywhere.  Takers?"

Yep. Everyone gets that Frank is emotional and sensitive and says what he thinks, but everyone, even the most loudmouth coaches in America, also know you just don't say things like he did about this kind of stuff, for obvious reasons. I'm sure it took a lot of butthurt to cause this, but a lot of it could have also just been his inexperience in dealing with stuff like this.

The only other explanation is that he just doesn't give a crap about what we think anymore. Which wouldn't be good at all.

Never, ever, ever underestimate the impact of this if you're looking at hiring someone.

It doesn't matter if you're an AD or a mid-level manager at a small company, you don't want to waste a bunch of hours dealing with crap like this because someone doesn't know how to handle some pretty basic professional situations.  And if he's this upset that he's not getting an extension or someone didn't offer him a job, do you really think someone at a big time program is going to want to deal with this kind of melodrama?  No.  Way.

Like I said, he needs to stop talking.

emotional responses aside (fan responses), nobody thinks martin is particularly intelligent, but he's not a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) either.  so we should probably assume he had some reason for making these thoughts public.  something other than being paranoid, hypersensitive and u-mad.

really the only thing i can think of that isn't some deep, ridiculous mindgamey crap would be that he thinks that by making clear how much he wants the miami job, and how cheap he'd be willing to make himself be, he can move some people to pressure shalala, the interim a.d. and whoever else needs to be pressured.  that seems like a real longshot to me, but perhaps he has some indication that makes it seem a more reasonable strategy than it appears.

Katz couldn't have supported Frank talking to Tucker.  Frank probably went off and did that one himself.

I seriously think he's painted himself into a bad situation, doesn't know how to handle it, and is probably going to Sheen this until that job is filled.

It'll be interesting to hear his response when somebody asks him about the fan perception that he was shopping himself to Miami. Will he give a veiled, coach-speak answer or another "raw and honest" response? Could be fun, or a non-issue.

What has K-State done exactly to be clown suited?   





Nothing really.

Isn't this the rundown?

1. Anderson gets $2 mil he's not worth....
2. Kruger gets $2.2 mil he's not really worth...
3. Miami job opens up and they don't even offer Frank an opportunity (whether he accepts or not is moot)
4. Currie doesn't offer an extension/ raise....
5. Frank feels bad because of 4 and 5
6. Frank says things that people laugh at him for in interview..

I can def. see where Currie is coming from.  Frank just got a substantial raise last year.  He was so happy he cried during the presser.  Just because Arky and OU are overpaying for coaches doesn't mean that Currie thinks he has to up Frank's pay right now.

http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=ap-kansasst-martin

Frank is just so "hard" to read.   Excellent job getting the message out to Miami that he's really not making $1.5 million a year.   

What's next Frank, a banner behind a plane over Coral Gables?

The way that article was written makes me highly suspicious that those quotes are used in the correct context.  Every quote is preceded by a paragraph explaining what the quote is supposed to mean.  Pretty bizarre.  

Regardless, the direct quotes on their own are fairly disconcerting.

For once I actually agree with Dax.  We keep the same coach (who I believe is pretty good) without giving him a raise while OU and Mizzou throw stupid money at mediocre coaches.   Seems like KSU is winning this round.  Course, we'll likely lose Frank and hire some schlub in the next year or two but the clownsuits are being handed out in Miami, Norman, and Colombia this year, not MHK.

Now in the span of a few days he goes from telling some media members that he won't talk about the Miami job (or any other job), to openly questioning why Miami hasn't called.

Integrity and trust is so hard to build up but oh so easy to lose. I agree with Pan, Frank needs to pipe down.

Gonna be interesting to see how many of UM's top candidates turn them down before Frank finally gets his call. 



Frank won't get a call.  Miami wants a guy that's squeaky clean.  Frank is shaky clean.

If they won't even call Frank, it doesn't seem like much of a leap to guess that Gruden wanted the football job but was rejected somewhere above the AD level.  Any of the other reasons that have been floated about what caused Hocutt to flee are ridiculous.  That one makes sense.

I do agree that they are all the same, but Frank has always seemed to conceal it better.
Granted, it's a minor point.

well, I guess he did a good job concealing it to morons. No offense.

None taken......guess my primary comparison (until yesterday) has been Mike Anderson who did everything to get speculation out and about, and even he and his agent commented on it. Frank has obviously been speculating around, but he usually refuses to comment on it

Until yesterday.

So I'm picturing Frank waking up every morning now with a big "sigh..."  Walking into the kitchen to make some coffee (kicks the cac out of the dog) and sitting down to a laptop to see what's happening with the Miami search.  After a few moments he mutters... "mother effers" a few times, slams the laptop shut, (kicks the cac out of that dog again) and limps off to take a shower.  (Cries in the shower)

Just a little reminder to the board at page fifty something.

All Frank has to do in order to make $1.55 million dollars in 2011-2012 is be alive, and be working as head men's basketball coach at K-State.   That's his salary plus a retention bonus.   For this year he'll make a minimum of $1.3 million, it could go over that depending the APR scores and what not.   Once you toss in all the other little perks, likely non on court related performance bonuses, Frank's total compensation package for 2011-2012 nears $1.7 million .   In addition, just last spring he got a signing bonus of nearly $500K.  

Upon reading that, maybe some of you "guys" will understand why Currie is probably letting Frank sit and stew on his angry chair for awhile.

Frank has done nothing this past year to warrent a raise or extention.  If Miami came calling he would have some leverage and he is pissed that they didn't even throw him a bone.  The salary talk is strange and probably a stupid ploy for who knows what reason but it really makes him look dumb. 

I'm kind of meh on the whole thing, he will have a below average season this next year due to the talent drop and learning curve for the new guys.  If he can pull something out of his back side and have a good run in the big 12 next year he could probably have a sit down with Curry and make demands for an extention (if that is what he wants) Still confused by his statements, but until I hear different, I assume he just did a bad job in the wrong place to create leverage.

yeah, martin has made it pretty clear that when next year's renegotions open there's not much point in discussing money.  martin will be trying to get the campus relocated to miami, currie may open with keeping the campus in kansas, but if he decides to play hardball he'll push for chicago or eugene.

I was all for bumping Frank's pay if someone was making a legitimate move to get him. That doesn't appear to be happening and he has for whatever reason reacted poorly or at least didn't convey very well what he really wanted to with the AP reporter. So even if he just wanted Miami to be interested, really wanted to go home, or if he's ticked at Currie, it doesn't matter now because he has no leverage unless Miami changes course and comes after him. Probably his best choice now is to just remain quiet, let this play out, make sure he gets Rodriguez signed, then have an informal sit down with the local media guys and get this thing over. Then figure out how he's going to piece next year's team together to hopefully contend for an NCAA birth.

In the unlikely scenario that Frank leaves, I'd be all for going after Pearl.

does anyone else think this could work out where ksu cats are better off by letting frank go and hiring steve henson.  don't even try to keep frank, just release him from his contract and use any money it will take to get henson back home within the ksu cats family.  seems like a perfect fit and i'm just reading between the lines sorry guys but no need to meltdown.  hensies is comin hom.e  yes.

stop w/ the pearl talk folks, rumor (strong rumor) that currie is going after hensies.

Yeah, it's a tough call.  

Hey, more props to Frank if he's praying on non tuck fears and hoping that the administration has non tuck/anti tuck fears as well.  

Wabash . . . but I am secretly holding out for a Frank move to Miami, and then a Pearl hire.   That's almost full time midnight BBS'ing right there son.

I was all for bumping Frank's pay if someone was making a legitimate move to get him. That doesn't appear to be happening and he has for whatever reason reacted poorly or at least didn't convey very well what he really wanted to with the AP reporter. So even if he just wanted Miami to be interested, really wanted to go home, or if he's ticked at Currie, it doesn't matter now because he has no leverage unless Miami changes course and comes after him. Probably his best choice now is to just remain quiet, let this play out, make sure he gets Rodriguez signed, then have an informal sit down with the local media guys and get this thing over. Then figure out how he's going to piece next year's team together to hopefully contend for an NCAA birth.

In the unlikely scenario that Frank leaves, I'd be all for going after Pearl.

what, exactly, did frank want to convey that he didn't mean to?  he wants to coach in miami, wants miami to know that he'd go for less than what's been reported yet doesn't think he's getting paid enough at ksu, and that he's turned down larger contract offers in the past so currie better give him more money or he's leaving as soon as he can.

I'm not sure, you never know with Frank. Its not like he hasn't messed stuff up with the media before. I have no doubt Frank knows how to use the media and what media to use. I agree with the point that if it was just about wanting Miami to go after him, he could've easily told one of the Miami news organizations, but he told the AP, so he wanted more than just Miami/K-State to be involved. But I also have no doubt that he didn't exactly get out there what he wanted, or how he wanted it to be said. I don't think its just "I want to go to Miami", or "I want to get paid more"; more than likely a bit of both because his ego was hurt.

And Trim . . . big props to John Currie for showing Frank who is boss.   Otherwise we're headed down the same path we got put on by OB.

I don't care if Frank gets fired because he sucks at being a basketball coach.
If Pearl isnt' given a "show cause" thingy ma-jig and we hire him, then he would totally alleviate any "Frank is gone" anxiety that I may experience.

 :surprised: :horrorsurprise: :surprised: :horrorsurprise: :dubious:

Yeah, bad enunciation.  I wouldn't care if Frank got dumped should it be determined he's running the program into the ground.  I care that Currie makes things difficult for Frank because he doesn't fit into the tuck mold.

Yeah, it's a tough call.

That being said, no way Pearl is even remotely available to coach this year, might as well forget about him anyway.  The NCAA is a-holes, he will get show caused for sure.

Granted, it goes until mid-May, but you don't want to have to deal with a coach leaving, searching for a new coach, hiring a new coach, players leaving, then trying to find new players this late in the game. That part would be terrible. Hiring someone decent like Pearl would make it a bit better, but its still not ideal.

This board reminds me of the idiots that scream for the second string quarter back anytime the first stringer throws an incompletion.  They're position is safe (warm and fuzzy) as long as the second stringer stays on the bench...they can continue to scream and bitch with impunity, feeling superior in their fantasy decision making prowess.  It's only when the second stringer comes trotting in and promptly throws a pick 6 that the goEAW'er is in jeopardy of looking a fool.

If Frank were handling himself as a player, he'd say he had an eye hernia or just needed some time to rest and figure things out. I think the writer has a pretty good handle on Frank, not being "wanted" at Miami and not having Currie immediately rework his contract hurt him, whether it should have or not. He just needs Miami to hire someone and get over it.

Sort of, but I think he went to Tucker to vent as much as anything.

"Doug, it's Miami basketball. Why am I not first on their list? Miami?!?! It has to be my salary, maybe I make too much. 1.5 mil looks like a lot, if they knew I only made 1.1 I would have gotten a call. That has to be it. They would have at least given me a call."

Now, what he would have done with it, who knows. Maybe he really wanted it, maybe he wanted more from K-State, or maybe just more validation. But in any case he wanted his ego stroked a little like most big coaches and he didn't get it, he just needs to move on now.

Plus it's not like he hasn't just called random guys in the past, Kent Babb being a great example. He just called someone different to vent, much like he did with the Babb story.

For anybody that questions that he might be new to this and doesn't know what he's doing with the media or quotes were taken out of context then wow, just wow. Using the media might be what frank is best at.

No doubt he's good at it and this is about Frank getting attention from Miami, but I don't think its just 100% he wants to go to Miami. I don't equate the AP story to the Brando interview and the early Meek and Cassidy pieces. At that point Frank had complete control. He orchestrated/agreed to the specific interview with Brando and got the quotes out there he wanted. He knew people would call Shakey/Art, he didn't orchestrate those completely, but he knew what they would say. And at that point he probably thought the Miami call was imminent, it just didn't come. Like I said, I'm not going to say 100% that he definitely wants to go there or not, that's still unclear to me, but no doubt he at least wants the call. I think when Miami started looking seriously at Amaker (!), then it got real to Frank. So then Tucker calls or he calls Tucker and a new twist is added to the whole thing.

I think Frank is trying to control the information out of his side of things as best he can, just much different from how Anderson and many others do things. But in Frank's case he isn't getting the type of attention he likely wanted and he is seeing these guys he no doubt thinks he's much better than getting paid $2 mil a year without some sort of yearly increase or large base of incentives and his ego is hurt.

Either way, with an offer from Miami Frank would've looked great. He's either going home to rebuild a bad program or he's staying at the program that gave him a chance. More Frank love from the media. But now he's sitting there seeing Miami go after this list: UAB’s Mike Davis, Auburn’s Tony Barbee, Murray State’s Billy Kennedy, Harvard’s Tommy Amaker, Richmond’s Chris Mooney, as well as former Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel and former Arkansas coach John Pelphrey.

Love how frank tried to use the local media, manbeck (who I really like), etc. To write pieces with quotes from shakey or whatever saying frank isn't leaving and then used a full fledged national media attack (Rome, ap writer guy) to get the whole frank to Miami should happen ball rolling. For anybody that questions that he might be new to this and doesn't know what he's doing with the media or quotes were taken out of context then wow, just wow. Using the media might be what frank is best at.

No doubt he's good at it and this is about Frank getting attention from Miami, but I don't think its just 100% he wants to go to Miami. I don't equate the AP story to the Brando interview and the early Meek and Cassidy pieces. At that point Frank had complete control. He orchestrated/agreed to the specific interview with Brando and got the quotes out there he wanted. He knew people would call Shakey/Art, he didn't orchestrate those completely, but he knew what they would say. And at that point he probably thought the Miami call was imminent, it just didn't come. Like I said, I'm not going to say 100% that he definitely wants to go there or not, that's still unclear to me, but no doubt he at least wants the call. I think when Miami started looking seriously at Amaker (!), then it got real to Frank. So then Tucker calls or he calls Tucker and a new twist is added to the whole thing.

I think Frank is trying to control the information out of his side of things as best he can, just much different from how Anderson and many others do things. But in Frank's case he isn't getting the type of attention he likely wanted and he is seeing these guys he no doubt thinks he's much better than getting paid $2 mil a year without some sort of yearly increase or large base of incentives and his ego is hurt.

Either way, with an offer from Miami Frank would've looked great. He's either going home to rebuild a bad program or he's staying at the program that gave him a chance. More Frank love from the media. But now he's sitting there seeing Miami go after this list: UAB’s Mike Davis, Auburn’s Tony Barbee, Murray State’s Billy Kennedy, Harvard’s Tommy Amaker, Richmond’s Chris Mooney, as well as former Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel and former Arkansas coach John Pelphrey. I really can't blame Frank for wondering what the heck is going on here.

Interesting take, hadn't really thought of it like that.  You're right too. Franks got to be wondering how he doesn't even get a look.

Maybe just maybe this works out in our favor. Frank doesnt get the Miami job since he is perceived to be a hot head who abuses his players(only good thing Energy was for). The chip on his shoulder grows exponentially and he rededicates himself to recruiting and winning enough games to make Miami look foolish for passing on him for his perceived faults?   :ck:

I think Kitchen's piece may have pinpointed why they're going with that particular list.

It could be that the current Miami administration isn't really looking at hiring a guy with a controversial disposition and the New Times up his posse's ass.

This isn't going to change with the new AD.  If they wanted him and wanted to have a serious conversation by now, they would have had it.  Hell, they'd have announced him as the HC already, and he'd be picking out a nice home in a gated community somewhere.  This has to be coming down from Shalala and/or the big money at Miami, and not even Ginger McWhitebread is going to come in swinging for the fences to make a splash in his first week.  I'm sure he's had a conversation with the administration, and "No Frank Martin" has probably already been discussed.

That's why Frank's move doesn't seem calculated to me.  Maybe he's just venting to Tucker for the reasons you mentioned, but you HAVE to think that Katz has already called him and told him to STFU.  He's screwing things up with his current employer for a job he isn't going to even get a serious look at.

While not fair, the "hot head" pictures are the one's that make it in news media outside of MHK.  So, when any story about Frank gets out it always has him yelling, stompin, complainin', etc.  Doesn't paint a realistic 24/7 image.

I really can't blame Frank for wondering what the heck is going on here.

But in your scenario Frank openly risks alienating his entire fan base by involving the media because he didn't get attention from a school he would have turned down with the world watching.

Thats pants-on-head Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) on Frank's part. Seems well beyond a matter of just ego to risk that much for the satisfaction of turning down a job you don't really want. How much could that really do for your ego?

I'm not sure that jives well when so many people, before Frank's little diatribe, were saying Frank would kill his first born for the Miami job. He can't be a master at media manipulation and yet a colossal moron at the same time as some of the narratives spouted here seem to imply. Seems more like desperation than pure ego. He sees his chance fading away and makes a seemingly subtle (although not so much) attempt at changing Miami's perspective on hiring him.

Post by: Ira Hayes on April 12, 2011, 09:34:36 PM
I'll bring it up again.  This has to be the reason that Kirby Hocutt bailed on Miami.  He most likely had Jon Gruden signed, sealed, and delivered and then some higher up said: "wait a second, he left the Raiders under odd circumstances."

If Jon Gruden is too dirty for Miami, then Frank has absolutely zero chance.

Hocutt hired the squeaky clean Temple coach and then got the hell out of there as soon as he could. He understood that his potential was severely limited there.  And what was the first thing he did at Texas Tech?  Hire Billy Gillespie.  A home run.  Think that could have happened at Miami?

Frank needs to get over his butt hurt and make this his home.  We give second chances at Kansas State.  Miami does not.

And one more thing to consider:

When Frank says "I've got a lot of people calling me and wanting me to come back" he is most certainly talking about AAU and high school coaches that want to be tight with the U and would be if Frank was there.  He just stuck his neck out for them and made it look very much like he was lobbying for the job.  

Now he can go back to them and say: "crap, I tried as hard as I could and caught all kinds of hell back in Kansas, but Miami doesn't care about winning.  If you have some future Rhodes Scholars that might be a good place for them.  If you have a great basketball player that wants to win games, become a man, and get exposure, please send him my way."

Instead of "Miami doesn't care about winning" that should be something like "Miami doesn't care about hard working guys like us.  They want Ivy League types."

I think this theory has merit. Those coaches don't funnel players to Frank without hoping for something in return.  It's much easier for him to provide tickets/connections/access/jobs and whatever else they desire if he is at Miami rather than K-State.  If it looks to them like he will stay in Kansas forever what good is he to them?

If having a high BB IQ means getting called for all sorts of fouls early, getting beat early, yelling at the refs, telling your players to beat people up on defense, getting a T when the refs stop giving you the game, hitting a ridiculous amount of piss poor shots, and still almost losing, then have fun with that style of play.

His team should be ashamed ASHAMED! of how they got that game, but probably not.  They used what they could, including playing the refs and playing the contact and playing the "good, small, classy vs big meany" card to brutal execution against our bigs.

While your opinion may be viewed as true in some circles, I highly doubt UNC and Duke fans spend as much time on the NC State Boards as their own because they really do view them as being pretty much an afterthought.

because he didn't know how to handle the situation.  there was a lot of planted info out there the last round of contract negotiations and it was done much better because there were actual offers.  it sucks, because i like frank.  i don't believe he's out for max money, i believe he's out for max k-state money.  unfortunately, the way he handled the opening and miami's laughing in his face he's not going to get max ksu money.  he should have really waited for another legitimate offer of more money to come out before he blew his load all over the media.  would have held a lot more water in contract talks.  now john currie gets to smile from across the table at him and shake his head.  i hate to think about that but it's the position frank has put himself in.

unfortunately for frank, currie doesn't seem to be as gullible

false dilemma.  currie could both believe that and know that miami doesn't want frank.  and that's assuming that currie cares to keep him.

there's really an awful lot of dream job smoke.  if frank's good enough to plant all of it, why would he then go and make a major eff up?  additionally, frank has turned down offers of more money before.  why do that if he's out for every dime?

He didn't want to coach at DePaul (no one does), and last year's Oregon search showed no one wants to coach there either.  He can talk about challenges, but the truth is that everyone wants to make the same amount (or more) at an easier job where they're more comfortable.  And he's comfortable here; he already has things moving in the right direction.

I'm personally of the belief that Frank may be interested in other positions, but his family is happy where they are.  I'm thinking that as long as it's tolerable here, and he feels that he's fairly compensated, he will actually stay for a pretty long time (unless a really good job like Florida opens). There's no reason to take a lateral move to another BCS school unless he feels like he's been really, really wronged.

And I think, right now, he feels wronged because Anderson and Kruger are making WAY more than they should, and Currie is playing tight with the money (while his predecessors did not do that).  That's probably exacerbating an already strained relationship, which caused an exponential increase in butthurt.

I'm in the _FAN/sd camp that says Frank's feeling a lot of butthurt right now because Miami hasn't showed on shred of real interest in him, and KSU isn't interested in paying him "market value".  As of right now, I think our coaching situation is pretty stable, but going into next year, I think there's a pretty good chance that Frank will remember all of this butthurt and seriously consider other offers (if they come).

frank is freaking out about contract talks now because he knows we may have a down year next season.  no offers and fewer wins makes for a happy john currie (in the short term).  hopefully frank out performs our talent and gets more money.

Frank is quite simply a coach that isn't good enough for a blue blood job but has built himself a situation that is better for him than virtually any non-blue blood job (Miami being the obvious exception, and they didn't even want to call him).

We're going to hear some weird twitter leaks about Frank being connected to some WTF jobs next year to try and figure out how to get another extension/raise.

If we do have a down year, Frank is here for two more years, or until he rights the ship.  But after that, once he has a good year, assuming Currie is still here, I think he bails because he feels so wronged.

But, by then, Pearl won't have a show clause and will probably be ready to step off of the party boat and back into college basketball to clear his good name, so it's all good.

I love Frank, but he has consistently shown that he has a big ego. I'm good with that, almost all successful coaches do, its part of the deal. I do think Frank is just pretty unique in how he handles his ego and I think Tucker was accurate when he said Frank was "insecure". I think him making an unusual call to Babb in early February when things looked bleak shows this, as did the sort of weird interviews with Brando and Tucker. There is no doubt he wanted to get his information out there in some capacity, but I think it changed from the Brando interview to the Tucker interview. Its possible if Miami gave him an offer he couldn't refuse that he would go there, but I don't think that is happening (and I don't think it ever was) but Frank still at least wanted the opportunity to say no. And as it become clear to him it wasn't going to happen in typical Frank fashion he got a bit paranoid as to why it didn't, and I think that contributed to the comments to Tucker much more than any desire to really go to Miami. In part Miami not reaching out to him b/c of his persona and his past in Miami only confirmed complaints some K-State fans had and what the media said when he was hired. I'm sure he thought he was past that, but its clear he is not, at least in Miami.

My opinion on this is just based on how Frank has handled things in the past and was only confirmed by listening to BITB interview Tucker yesterday.

Bottom line, the whole thing makes Frank look like a complete fool regardless...shows that all his talk about life and choices is nothing more than a bunch of bullshit. He talks about honesty and integration but then talks out of both sides of his mouth, feels hurt yet doesn't want to hurt what made him...eff it, I'd have alot more respect for him if he'd just come out and tell the truth. He used kstate as a stepping stone, he can talk all the BS he would like, but its no different than prince. Prince failed, Frank succeeded. Frank doesn't give a rats ass about kstate, he only cares about himself, and to be honest there isn't anything wrong with that, but like I said, I'd have more respect for him if he'd just say it so we can send him packing and find someone who really does want to be here. Although Snyder has sorta ran his course, and the times have caught up with him, I do thiink the guy actually cared about kstate, and I know people will say that if he cared he'd get the eff out...that is true but honestly that time is coming real soon and im at least willing to see what this years team does before going nuts...at least were not a pre season #3 projected to win the big 12 favorite only to dic flop our way into the dance on the back of jake in football, Frank wont have Jake, and he knows his smoke and mirrors in the big 12 are about to come to a end so, I for one do not want anyone who doesn't want to be here...good luck...please leave

This is rough ridin' stupid. No coach really cares about K-State. KSU will always be a stepping stone job and should always prepare for it. At the same time, coaches should never say they look at KSU as a stepping stone (even if they do).  If you were dumb enough to think that KSU was Frank's dream job and that he wanted to be here for ever and was always 100% honest every time he dealt with the media before this week I don't even know where to start. I mean seriously.

I can understand (a little) being upset at how Frank handled it. It wasn't his best moment.

But wanting him out because of it is just silly. 95% of coaches are going to do the same thing at K-State and when you have a good one that does it you want him to stay as long as possible. The "I want someone that wants to be here" line leads to programs led by Jim Wooldridge. But if Jim would've won decently, he would've likely been out of here too.

I'll bring it up again.  This has to be the reason that Kirby Hocutt bailed on Miami.  He most likely had Jon Gruden signed, sealed, and delivered and then some higher up said: "wait a second, he left the Raiders under odd circumstances."

If Jon Gruden is too dirty for Miami, then Frank has absolutely zero chance.

Hocutt hired the squeaky clean Temple coach and then got the hell out of there as soon as he could. He understood that his potential was severely limited there.  And what was the first thing he did at Texas Tech?  Hire Billy Gillespie.  A home run.  Think that could have happened at Miami?

Frank needs to get over his butt hurt and make this his home.  We give second chances at Kansas State.  Miami does not.

Pretty right on.  Putting the Hocutt hiring of BCG shortly after arriving in Lubbock in perspective.

So is Katz to blame here?  Can't get his client in the mix so his client hail mary's something in the media?

Kinda sounds like it is time for a new agent.

it doesn't take some genius agent representation to know that approaching the situation in the way he did was an awful business decision.  some things Frank should probably be able to figure out on his own. 

I am talking more about Katz not being able to get Miami talking than I am Frank doing the interview.

they hired a search committee.  frank didn't meet their criteria.  what more can you do?

Call Tucker, apparently.

I have read through the past couple of pages of butthurt and cac and didn't see much on the new AD at UM.  I'm curious to see what peoples perception is on this new guy.  Is he going to come in and say "hey, no more search firm.  I'm going to make this hire.".  Don't you think he would want to make a home run hire (Frank or some other established coach) rather than limit himself to the firm?  Or, is he a "Yes" man.  Did he get the job because Shalala wants to run the show and he agreed to let her use the firm/pick the coach?  The reason I say that is becuase he has no AD experience (Correct me if I'm wrong) and is a relativly young so that makes sense on some level.  The same issues still apply (money, UM is football school/ small arena and so on), but I'm just wondering if this hire chages the direction UM is going.  Does this new AD come in and mix things up or just get his name associated to the firms hire?

I think his hire makes Frank chances about the same. It went from 0% to 0%. He may indeed want to make his own hire, but I doubt it would be a guy he's seen Wisconsin handle twice in 4 years.

That and they've probably already outlined what they're looking for in a basketball coach should he choose to go outside of the firm.

They aren't targeting that particular murderer's row unless a strict set of criteria has been put forth (affordability, lack of controversy, clean image, etc.) by the upper administration (i.e. Shalala) and big money donors.

qft.  and the same could be said for ksu.  we have a coach that, if he were at another school, we couldn't afford and/or he woudn't want to come here.  both sides have it pretty good (yet are unsure how long it will last).  if frank pulls an emaw out of his hat next year and gets to the tourney, will be interesting to see how much more currie pays him.

If Frank takes the team to the tournament next year Currie has to pony up; rework the deal and get Frank to $2 Mil. JMHO.

how many coaches are good enough for a blueblood offer given that there are only a handful of bluebloods?  and uk hiring bcg makes a blueblood offering frank at least conceivable.  not sure why we're stroking ourselves off on that point.

Frank is quite simply a coach that isn't good enough for a blue blood job but has built himself a situation that is better for him than virtually any non-blue blood job (Miami being the obvious exception, and they didn't even want to call him).

this is pretty true

hypothetically speaking, if frank gets next year's team to a top 4 finish, what the hell does that say that, regardless of the talent on his roster or the competition, he's going to finish 3 or 4? kinda bad and good I suppose.  also, 1.8M is prolly the number.  it's frank's decision to make 'te 450K rather than te 250K.

Crying at the presser, telling all the shirt tucks what they want to hear, benching Kelly and whoever so the tucks can see that he's in charge, scolding the media so tucks can talk about how he sticks up for his players, using the media to go home, or to have the tucks get behind him, the whole season was a drama, Its funny how all you people could see that when things weren't going so well. All I care about is whether he wins games so if he doesn't want to be here than good luck and goobye...

That statement wasn't intended for Frank.  That statement was to make it seem like Miami wasn't completely resigned to hiring one of those scrubs on their current list.

Now the AD can say that they looked at all available applicants, and Jeff Capel was the best fit for Miami (because that's who the search firm told them to go with).

It's not like the interim AD was really holding up the process, here.  Whatever it was that prevented them from hiring Frank 48 hours ago is still in place.

You're making the assumption that the AD has power in this scenario.

It sounds like Shalala (or someone else) has been pulling the strings for some time.  Hence why they hired Al Golden, why Hocutt left for Tech, and why their list of applicants looked like a list you'd see at Wichita State.

I'm sure the AD has been briefed on what they want to see in a coach hired at UM, and Frank Martin does not fit that mold.

Isn't saying this similar to saying that Currie will have no control over Sean being the next FB coach?  Surely the new AD will have finger prints all over the first hire of his tenure.

It's going to be his first official action.  Could be the one his career is initially, if not ultimately, judged on.  No way an AD takes a job just to lay down on things like this.

If Wefald were still the UP, yes.  With Schulz, no.

I go back to something Dayton Moore said when he was hired with the Royals.  There are only 30 GM jobs in MLB.  When one comes open, you need to take it.  Conversely, there are ~70 BCS Jobs out there.  When you get a chance to have (AD - University of Miami) on your resume, you can pretty much live on that for the rest of your life if that doesn't work out.

So is Katz to blame here?  Can't get his client in the mix so his client hail mary's something in the media?

Kinda sounds like it is time for a new agent.

it doesn't take some genius agent representation to know that approaching the situation in the way he did was an awful business decision.  some things Frank should probably be able to figure out on his own. 

I am talking more about Katz not being able to get Miami talking than I am Frank doing the interview.

they hired a search committee.  frank didn't meet their criteria.  what more can you do?

Ya, cheating his ass off at Miami high is cool if you don't ever won't to work in that town again.  No rough ridin' way Miami was going to bring him back and let the local gator/Seminole/bulls/knights/international-whatevs  just tee off on their coach.  

Let me give you an analogy that will help convey what I am saying;  If you go kill a baby ina  village in africa, you probably cannot go coach basketball later in that same village in africa...BUT you CAN go coach in Manhattan, KS and get butt hurt about baby killer questions loads less.  Same thing.

I agree that very little has changed in the Miami/Martin drama. The new AD just gives media something to stir up again, and this will quickly go away when Miami starts looking at candidates that were on their original list from last week. Unless Martin decides to get something out there again.

These situations are fluid and can change and adjust drastically depending on the current dynamic.

Here's what is in play now that wasn't two days ago:  Their top target rejects them to stay at Harvard (lol).  They now have added their AD to the committee.

And I don't agree that this AD is in a powerless position in the scenario, willing to passively sit back and let this search firm manage the process simply because they started it.  Every AD wants their fingerprints on the hires and personell within their department.  I highly doubt he will not be playing an active role in this hire now and may possibly bring more candidates into the fold, one of them probably being Frank.

Please take note: To this point, no individual has been excluded from consideration. And, no individual has been offered the position to coach at the University of Miami. Any account or report otherwise is inaccurate and pure speculation. From this point forward, I will take complete control of the search. I will exhaust all means to find coach who stands for the great values of this institution, is a fundamentally sound teacher of the game and will positively lead our players with a tremendous amount of passion, integrity and dedication.

Make no mistake, we are committed to doing what it takes to build a program capable of winning basketball championships. We're going to do it the old fashioned way: Hard work and a strong foundation. There are no shortcuts to building a program. In that regard, we will take as much time as necessary to find the right person for the job. It would not be appropriate to me, the University of Miami or any of the folks under consideration for the position to have any further comment regarding the search until we are ready to announce the person who will lead our program.

Please take note: To this point, no individual has been excluded from consideration. And, no individual has been offered the position to coach at the University of Miami. Any account or report otherwise is inaccurate and pure speculation. From this point forward, I will take complete control of the search. I will exhaust all means to find coach who stands for the great values of this institution, is a fundamentally sound teacher of the game and will positively lead our players with a tremendous amount of passion, integrity and dedication.

Make no mistake, we are committed to doing what it takes to build a program capable of winning basketball championships. We're going to do it the old fashioned way: Hard work and a strong foundation. There are no shortcuts to building a program. In that regard, we will take as much time as necessary to find the right person for the job. It would not be appropriate to me, the University of Miami or any of the folks under consideration for the position to have any further comment regarding the search until we are ready to announce the person who will lead our program.

We have to hold everyone accountable, not just the student-athletes and the coach. We're all going to be held accountable for supporting this program. We're going to get it done.

DOES THE BASKETBALL SEARCH START FROM SCRATCH?

The process is under evaluation at this point too. I'm not really sure, we'll figure things out in next 24 hours. But, again, everyone who has an interest in being our basketball coach at the University of Miami will get consideration. So, at this time, I really can't give you any more information than that.

And one more thing to consider:

When Frank says "I've got a lot of people calling me and wanting me to come back" he is most certainly talking about AAU and high school coaches that want to be tight with the U and would be if Frank was there.  He just stuck his neck out for them and made it look very much like he was lobbying for the job.  

Now he can go back to them and say: "crap, I tried as hard as I could and caught all kinds of hell back in Kansas, but Miami doesn't care about winning.  If you have some future Rhodes Scholars that might be a good place for them.  If you have a great basketball player that wants to win games, become a man, and get exposure, please send him my way."

So is Katz to blame here?  Can't get his client in the mix so his client hail mary's something in the media?

Kinda sounds like it is time for a new agent.

it doesn't take some genius agent representation to know that approaching the situation in the way he did was an awful business decision.  some things Frank should probably be able to figure out on his own. 

I am talking more about Katz not being able to get Miami talking than I am Frank doing the interview.

they hired a search committee.  frank didn't meet their criteria.  what more can you do?

Ya, cheating his ass off at Miami high is cool if you don't ever won't to work in that town again.  No effing way Miami was going to bring him back and let the local gator/Seminole/bulls/knights/international-whatevs  just tee off on their coach.

Credit Florida's Billy Donovan for making sound hires for his staff this week. Donovan added experience in Norm Roberts, formerly of St. John's, and his good friend and former assistant John Pelphrey, formerly of Arkansas.

So, it would appear that Pelphrey isn't on Miami's radar any longer either.

Anyone can see what has taken place, the way I have seen it has been like this...coaches talk, Martain has known either through coach talk or his sources in Miami that Haith was going to be on the first job out of Miami, thus the reason why Angel did not sign immediately at kstate. I'm sure Frank expected a coronation ceremony the day Haith left simply because he was Frank Martin from Miami, he expected that job to be his, but when he wasn't contacted I'm sure he felt like wtf? Miami put a clog in his plan, so yes, he had to use the media to get his message out. Frank probably told angel to wait until April, because he had some inside information. Funny how people kept saying that angel intended to play for Frank, so if Frank had any intention of staying with kstate, than angel would of signed on signing day. Frank isn't stupid, he used Beasley and walker to jump start his coaching career, pullen was a unexpected bonus, lets be honest without pullen this year's team probably wouldn't of even made the nit.....I could care less about the Frank Martin side show, I only care about Winning, and quite honestly I think Franks smoke and mirrors show at kstate is coming to a end.

Frank isn't stupid, he used Beasley and walker to jump start his coaching career, pullen was a unexpected bonus, lets be honest without pullen this year's team probably wouldn't of even made the nit.....I could care less about the Frank Martin side show, I only care about Winning, and quite honestly I think Franks smoke and mirrors show at kstate is coming to a end.

covers a lot of stupid for a single run on paragraph.

Gotta think all this great press thanks to Frank is really helping our recruiting and national brand credibility as a basketball program.

Pretty cool to be perceived as a bigger dead end shithole than the perennial ACC bottom feeder that Tommy rough ridin' Amaker wouldn't even touch with a ten foot pole.

The shitty thing is we can't even fire him without loading his pockets with $$$.  He just gets to jerk us off until he decides what he's going to do.  I hope Currie is making a list and getting crap lined up for his coaching search rather than contacting Frank about more $$ or an extension.

Jeter didn't work with new Miami athletic director Shawn Eichorst at Wisconsin, but both know each other well through contacts in the state. Jeter had already gone to Milwaukee (from Bo Ryan's Wisconsin staff) when Eichorst was hired to be Barry Alvarez's assistant athletic director with the Badgers.

I agree. It's pretty obvious that his full fledged media attack won him the right to interview. From there, it's pretty much over. I think this thing has just drug on so long that people are worn out on the freaking out front. I'm still betting on Greg Marshall as new headcatcoach. Thoughts?

Also, I think its without a doubt a fact that Miami knew frank wanted to come back really, really, really  badly. They make him think that they aren't interested and then boom. Not only does he still really want it, all the sudden he wants it and is willing to do it for several hundreds of thousands less. These Miami people aren't rubes. Surprised people aren't putting the clues together. I mean tommy amaker? Yeah right. Lol. Just a pawn to get frank for 1.1 imo. More like pawny amaker imo.

I mean, just think about it. Negotiations with frank haven't even begun and Miami officials already know exactly how low he's willing to go. Pure genius. Frank has been living in ks too long.

there aren't enough meltdowns here.  frank is being aggressive and miami will find him to be very lovable and convincing if they get to know him a little.

I agree. It's pretty obvious that his full fledged media attack won him the right to interview. From there, it's pretty much over. I think this thing has just drug on so long that people are worn out on the freaking out front. I'm still betting on Greg Marshall as new headcatcoach. Thoughts? Also maybe underwood as a backup in case Marshall turns it down.

my gut says to go with a hensies undies package deal.  co head coaches maybe?

those two guys know more about EMAW hoops and EMAW hoops tradition than Donna Shalala has in her dick!

Was literally going to post this exact same statement.  Exact, to the letter.  Well put, Steve Dave.

I'm just ready for this to be over with either way.

Either we're back to rebuilding (i.e. Iowa State), or we go forward.  Regardless, it just needs to end.

Frank, if you are going to leave, please do it soon.

I got uneasy the second I heard Rome going off for five minutes about how Miami needed frank and how they have to hire him, etc. That kind of crap riles up local fan support and phone calls and letters, etc. Then the pres quickly hired an ad so she could come out clean in the whole thing and say "the new ad hired him. Not me." The momentum just kept building and building. They'll end up finally coming to their senses and make the right move by hiring him and we will be stuck with sprads, victor, gips and underwood. Ro will also come back so Everybody can hurry up and get that sports illustrated signed.

i never thought of a hensies undies comboPAK, it's a great idea.  imagine how the b12 would feel after we announce that one, they'd prob kick us out of the conf b/c we would have effectively lock'd up all the trophs for the next decade+ of b12 college hoops.  i can see the b12 board of regents not approving the deal though, would cost too much to pay them both, although you could argue that our marketing revenue would go up after winning 10 straight b12 trophs.

John: I just received a phone call from Donna Shalala at the University of Miami. She asked for permission to speak with you about the Head Coaching job down there.
Frank: (Eyes perk up, voice gets more cheery) Wow, John. That comes as a surprise to me. I guess I'll have to speak with her.

I think a lot of people like Frank, but I don't think they like him enough to employ him.

His "Crazy Frank" shtick makes for amazing television, and he gives great, great interviews.  He's very amiable and approachable off of the field, so he'll always have positive media feedback.

But, with his on court temper, he'll never be a universally desired coach.  You'll have to have a very tolerable fan base (much like a co-dependent girlfriend) that will love him for who he is and is absolutely terrified of being left to fend for themselves without him.

Fans will want him, but the list of ADs willing to take a chance on him is going to be much lower.  He'll always be perceived as a ticking time bomb (like Bobby Knight was) and a potential liability.

MIAMI -- Miami Heat forward Udonis Haslem hopes Kansas State coach Frank Martin has a shot at the Miami Hurricanes' vacant coaching position.

Haslem played for Martin at Miami High and said Friday that "if you don't at least interview Coach Frank for that job, you're making a big mistake."

Martin is 95-43 in four seasons with the Wildcats. The Miami native and Cuban immigrant will be in South Florida this weekend to be enshrined in the Miami High Hall of Fame.

New Miami athletic director Shawn Eichorst says that anyone with interest in the position will be considered.

Earlier this week, Martin told The Associated Press that he "loves it" at Kansas State but may listen to offers.

No need to hate on Frank too much yet.  When his contract was extended last year I personally thought it was a little on the low side in terms of market value then.  This year it appears quite a bit too low in comparison to others, so I think he really just wants Curry to up the contract this year because we might suck next year.  You can't hate him for that; it's just business.

Yeah, he weakened his negotiation position pretty early on.

I expect he ultimately will go for a contract around 1.3 a year at the end of the day and Delonte will take a huge cut or will move along to another staff.  crap, they were going to pay Amaker 1.1 over 5 years.

I vote for warming up the "fire Frank" campaign. If he stays at KSU, he'll be as useful as Mark Mangino would have been had he lasted another year at KU.

I've finally come to closure on this.  Could care less if he stays or goes.

If he stays, I'll like him less.  I don't think there's any way I can't.  I mean, I'll get over it, but still.  It won't ever be the same.

If he goes, I'm interested to see John Currie lead a coaching search.

Regardless, I'm going to love seeing how the fans react to him if he does come back.  There are a few awkward nut fry's in his future.

it never ends well when coaches flirt with other jobs and end up staying.  they either end up leaving anyway a few years later (roy, m.anderson) or start to suck (dana altman, glen mason). 

currie should probably tell frank he's done if he takes an interview...kinda like boston college did with their coach a few years ago.

Agree. Everyone thought the BC athletic director was nuts, but really he was just smart in foreseeing  what would happen if he stayed. Doesn't sit well with recruits, fan support, etc when it's a known fact that your coach is trying to GTFO.

The same job of basketball coach, at the U who's bball program is 10 times worse than Nebraska's, and royally rough ridin' us over for God knows how long.

I can foresee powertards and goemawtards alike saying "Wow Frank just knocked of #1 Duke at the U!!! Good for him!!!" while our program sinks back to the Wooly days cause we're the last school on the coaching carousel and get stuck with some shitty bad person. I would/will curse Frank and Miami as long as I'm an EMAW, which will likely be a long time.

Plenty of reasons to be mad, mind you.

Public pining for a job you're unlikely to get (and I'm still not 100% convinced he does want an offer; just so butthurt he's not wanted) is just tacky.

It's not that he's lobbying for the job, or he's being open about it, but more how his public begging is just so pathetic and reeks of desperation for whatever end he's trying to achieve.

It won't happen, but the countdown clock has officially started.  Frank will not be coaching here in three years.  He may be here after next season because the team will probably be down, but one way or the other, Frank won't be here much longer.

This has drug out too long, and Currie has to be absolutely fuming to see our coach opine for the Miami job, which in all reality is a crap gig.  It's bad PR.

I'd say the odds that Currie and Pearl have already had some form of communication are probably pretty high.

Guys, I love Frank. 

But if we get Pearl out of this, we are better off.  Although, oscar would probably get upset his tan isn't pristine year round and heads for Pepperdine after a few years.

So if we get Pearl, even for just a few years, that's what I want.   If no Pearl, I want Frank.  I can get over this ordeal, it's business.

Yeah, a bunch of dipshits are acting like they didn't know Frank was from Miami or that he says stupid things sometimes. I mean, who could be butthurt over him exploring the Miami job? I mean honestly.

if you're butthurt over this, it means that you badly want a coach who will love you and want to be with you forever and are pretty much a giant rough ridin' powerespect.  

if you think frank is butthurt, it probably also means you're a giant rough ridin' powerespect because you can't even comprehend that he wants to leave you for someone else and is doing what he needs to do to make it happen.

it's not about making people look bad, at least not directly.  it's knowing that a large portion of the fan base was going to get pissed about this, thus giving dipsh*t currie leverage and further deepening the divide between him and frank which will ultimately lead to frank walking out the door (before he might have otherwise) and at that point, unless pearl is available, I have zero faith in currie hiring anyone worth a sh*t and then we got back to playing on the first day of the big 12 tourney.

It's not really butthurt.  He's begging for a crap job, and it's bad PR.

Basically, it's putting our job on a level with a program that completely shut down their basketball program for a while within the last few decades.  I know some people around here will try to say that they are equal jobs (they aren't) because Miami is great (which it's not) and Manhattan sucks (which isn't completely true), but if you polled a bunch of coaches and put the two jobs on paper, I'd bet you a significant majority would rather coach here.

Frank can go explore other jobs all he wants.  And I get that Miami is where he's from, and it holds a special place in his heart, blah, blah, etc.  But to publicly whore yourself to every outlet that will listen for a school that A) doesn't give a crap about basketball and B) doesn't want you is kind of bad PR for your institution.

I don't think anyone here really wants or expects a coach that will just fall in love with Kansas State and spurn all other opportunities because they just love it here so much.  I think most people would just prefer their coach not do everything but offer to suck dick for a crap job all over the damn media.

I don't care about that at all.

I'm just really looking forward to Currie having to pound the pavement and try to get more money/donations for the program after all of this.  You know Frank won't even attempt to rationalize or justify this to the tucks.  It's just going to make things awkward for a while.

I agree with everything you said with the exception of this.  I don't know how Currie could be okay with this.

I doubt that when they had their "annual review", Currie said, "Sure, you can pretty much say whatever you want to the media in an attempt to get the Miami job.  Don't worry; when I go out to get high dollar donations, and they wonder about the commitment of our coach when they pledge several hundred thousand dollars, I'll smooth it over."

I know Frank loves Miami and probably wants to go home.  And I'm perfectly fine with him doing everything in his power to get that job through appropriate channels.  But if he has to resort to lobbying for the job through the media, someone should counsel him that it's not going to happen, and he doesn't need to put himself in a bad situation here.  All he's doing is hurting himself in contract negotiations, donor conversations, and recruiting because his commitment to the university will be in question.  Some people (us) will realize that this is an exception (even if we disagree on whether or not it should be), but that's not the way that it's going to be perceived by many.

There was a story a couple years ago about Frank that mentioned his son from his first marriage visiting during Christmas vacation and how badly Frank felt when he had to send him home to Miami, in part because of his relationship his own father. Thought at the time, Frank would do anything to get back there.

I'm pretty sure that I understand what's going on, and I'm not personally butt hurt.  If he stays, fine.  If he goes, fine.  I've posted that exact phrase in the last couple of days.

I understand that he's doing everything in his power to try and get this job, or force Currie into a negotiation, or position himself into a better situation, regardless of whatever that may be.  Coaches do that.  I get it.  But what I said, and will continue to say, is that he should have seen the writing on the wall a week ago when they wanted to bring in Tommy Amaker and realized it wasn't going to happen (and it's still not going to happen), resign himself to it, and not make his current situation worse before starting a mini-political campaign to get himself the opportunity to interview, let alone get the job.

i think there are a very few occasions (all postgame, afaik) where he becomes irate with a question, or his perception of a question, and says something that he might not otherwise.  in all other interviews, he has a very aggressive filter on and controls the flow of information as much as any other coach.

i don't think he's ever a bumbling idiot with reporters, he generally has them eating out of his hand.

I understand that he's doing everything in his power to try and get this job, or force Currie into a negotiation, or position himself into a better situation, regardless of whatever that may be.  Coaches do that.  I get it.  But what I said, and will continue to say, is that he should have seen the writing on the wall a week ago when they wanted to bring in Tommy Amaker and realized it wasn't going to happen (and it's still not going to happen), resign himself to it, and not make his current situation worse before starting a mini-political campaign to get himself the opportunity to interview, let alone get the job.

You're right, but I think most people Frank's action made Frank and Miami look like the jackasses in the situation, not KSU. Everyone already thought KSU was a shitty job to begin with. Frank isn't doing anything to make it worse.

like, imo, whether frank was or wasn't lobbying for the job is irrelevant.  what's relevant is that a large percentage of the fan base thinks he was/is.  so, like, regardless of whether you think that's Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) or not, that's kind of how it is.  and there'll be unintended (or intended) consequences in the future because of it.  that is what has me butthurt.  maybe I'm exaggerating or miscalculating the repercussions, dunno.

it could happen.  stranger things have certainly happened.  so, why not go for it balls to the wall if you're him?  you're suggesting that frank adopt a loser's mentality.  he's not a loser.  he's very successful.

of our fanbase?  yes.  maybe wrong.  hopefully so.  the average fan probably doesn't know about depaul or oregon and I would probably guess beceause frank didn't publicly comment on either of them (well, then at least.  he described them indirectly talking to doug tucker).

We're in for some rough times with or without Frank, mostly due to Frank's shitty recruiting. And the "coaching carousel" is absolutely entertaining.

There was a story a couple years ago about Frank that mentioned his son from his first marriage visiting during Christmas vacation and how badly Frank felt when he had to send him home to Miami, in part because of his relationship his own father. Thought at the time, Frank would do anything to get back there.
he probably has half a dozen little Franks running the streets of Miami, that's got to be it...he's doing it for the children

Just an assumption by most people. It could go either way. Currie needs the bright spot on his resume, but then again he would be hiring for K-State...so could be interesting if/when we need a new coach

Wisconsin-Milwaukee coach Rob Jeter met with new Miami athletic director Shawn Eichorst over the weekend and could be the frontrunner for the Hurricanes' head coaching job, according to The Miami Herald.

Jeter, 41, is 101-89 in five years at Wisconsin-Milwaukee, taking over the program after spending 10 years on Bo Ryan's staff at Wisconsin and Wisconsin-Platteville. Eichorst and Jeter worked together at Wisconsin.

Other names mentioned by Herald as candidates are Mike Davis (UAB), Mike Jarvis (FAU), Frank Martin (Kansas State), Billy Kennedy (Murray State), Gary Waters (Cleveland State), and Donnie Jones (UCF) but none of them has been contacted by UM as of Friday. Some trustees have lobbied for Virginia Tech's Seth Greenberg, but they have not had any formal talks.

In other Miami news, incoming freshman G Bishop Daniels has asked the school for his release in the wake of coach Frank Haith's departure for Missouri. Daniels, from Raleigh, N.C., is expected to enroll at Tennessee or Rutgers, according to The Herald.

Coaches can’t talk about recruits before having a valid National Letter of Intent on file, and they can’t attend NLI signings not on an institution’s campus. Not allowing coaches to talk about the players they are recruiting avoids the “one-upmanship” that could (and previously did) occur between coaches in the recruiting process. Prohibiting their presence at signings also alleviates pressure some student-athletes say they felt when they signed. Peal said that if a signing takes place on an institution’s campus, she encourages institutions to have an administrator present in addition to a coach. The administrator can “back up the facts” if a student-athlete later appeals his National Letter of Intent and alleges he was pressured into signing by a coach.

I'll say this, if Frank is flying commercially down to Miami to interview one day after flying commercially from Miami to MHK, then goodbye Frank.

no, but he would certainly either at LEAST get a flight out to somewhere innocuous, then get a connection, or get a boosters plane.   After all, if the boosters are so hot on him....


Frank isn't going to hop on AA and get a connection right into Miami where any jackass could see him and call the media.     And guarantee a hoodie and sunglasses would be involved.

i'm putting this in the 2013 thread too, on hopes of parker or nunn.

is this a thing? are we already saying it? don't know, but like it.

why in the hell would he be on a flight to miami, a day after being there?

I don't know that it was ever confirmed that he was.  Was confirmed he was on a flight to Chicago and someone on that flight had a Miami connection but that was it.  Seems like a scoop that get_hit would have......

why in the hell would he be on a flight to chicago?  Illinois-Chicago?  :ohno:


Actually not true.

pretty much this.

if you fly  :AA: to miami, you'd probably be routed through dfw.

Actually not true

for efficiency purposes (time), it would be dfw.

Not much of a difference really. Plus, who wants to wake up early enough to get the dfw 6:30. Not me. That's who. Time to face reality etp. Frank is gone.

if i were frank, i wouldn't mind getting up at 6:00, shower and eat breakfast, catch the 6:30 flight, hang out for an hour in dfw, then off to miami.

seems more likely here, rd. let's get real.

DFW you could leave at like noon or 4 because of multiple flights.  Chicago you have to make the 6 or 7am one or whatever the hell it is

meanstreets is a chicago area aau team sponsored/coached by tai streets.  pullen played with them and tai streets has been seen at a couple of kstate games.

afaik, there's never been any association between the mac irvin fire and kstate.

Eichorst described his coach-to-be as “a fundamentally sound person who is positive and treats young people with the utmost respect” and later added, “I want our kids to be treated in a very respectful and loving manner. I want a positive person. I don’t like negative people.”

Martin, who this past season hit guard Chris Merriewether on the arm with the back of his hand and then apologized after the game, doesn’t exactly exude loving and positive. 

He’s more like the drill sergeant from the GEICO commercials.

And so we move on…..

All for our hot headed, angry coach staying as long as he starts recruiting better.

Running around scraping the bottom of the barrel for a warm body from the Juco Ranks to fill the ride(s) of guys the hot headed angry coach has run off is not by definition recruiting better.

Now the legit fear is that hot headed angry coach and his trusty side kick Te450K are our swinging for the fences again, which is fine, as long as there is legit plan B and C's as well . . . and legit plan B's and C's are not Canadian Juco guards and Te Irving types.

I love Tim Fitzgerald.  The only thing he's ever done to me was ban me from GPC which I can live with.  cac means you have your word filter turned on (you can turn this off in your user settings), BITB means Best In The Biz and usually refers to Kevin Kietzman but sometimes others in different fields and tuck is an old loser fan who tucks in his tshirt into his jeans and advocates for things that people who tuck their tshirt in at ksu games would advocate for.

kstate hasn't been associated with any okc recruits that i know of.  could have come up from dfw or down from wichita, i suppose.  though gates reported underwood in wichita for ellis.  i would assume he would have reported martin too, if he had been there.

I'll always mow my own lawn.  ALWAYS.  I may eventually have a live in maid and personal chef, but I'm still going to mow my own lawn.  Matter of fact, I may pull a Forest Gump and sell my company for millions and just mow lawns all day for free.  There's some extremely cathartic about it to me.  Some people pray.  Some people meditate.  I mow.  :dunno:

Agreed. I have about 2 acres, most of which is mowed with a 42" Craftsman Lawn Tractor. Takes about 2 hours. Very enjoyable while listening to some Pandora radio on my Droid Incredible.

I mow with a 52 inch Hustler Super Z.  It is made is Hesston, Kansas, which qualifies it as an EMAW mower.  The admins should hit them up to sponsor this site.

Slightly off topic, but do we have a new coach yet?

Just my thoughts.

AR not signing, he's clearly being told not to . . . the whole Miami hiring process is being slow rolled (again My Opinion) to give time to "explain" Frank to Shalala types, I suspect that Miami money types want Frank, and they're saying so, and likely make a strong play that this Jeter guy doesn't have Frank's recruiting ties.    There's likely all kinds of stuff going on behind the scenes to put it all together.

Even after that very informational thread, I can't figure out WTF Kstateo is.

It's pretty great that this pulls up the national ag safety database, too (complete with tuck)

looks shirtless to me :horrorsurprise:


Only a tuck would mow their yard with their shirt tucked in, or possibly even shirtless.  And of course wearing jeans while mowing.
ass-less chaps :horrorsurprise:
Hey hayseed, chaps are inherently ass-less.
please note the specific ass cut out.  Come to the big city and I will open your eyes.


And to those wondering about hearing protection, yes there is an insurance issue.  Also you should not use headphones while mowing.  Get and over the ear muff and then ear buds or some sort of integrated system.  If you are just using your head phones and listening to music you will have to increase the volume a lot to hear the music over the mower.

And I don't think Miami is into playing some smoke-screen game to get Frank. More proof: http://gary-parrish.blogs.cbssports.com/mcc/blogs/entry/6271764/28705752

Ell full of angst and hoping for the best, but still won't answer the question.  Why hasn't AR signed his LOI?  He's committed to Frank Martin right?  Isn't that what all the tucks, powertards, frankites and emawtards say.  So if AR is committed to Frank Martin, and if the prospect of Frank Martin leaving K-State has null/void/settled, why hasn't the Art controlled Angel Rodriquez signed his LOI??

Meat . . . have Jeter and Larranega been offered the job??

Post by: kso_FAN on April 21, 2011, 12:35:03 PM
I think in today's twitter reporting world, sources and leaks are going to get out there. The trend in the past week has been moving away from Frank (especially by the Miami locals) and towards others, namely Jeter and now Larranaga. I'm not willing to give the sources and leaks enough credit to believe they could dry up the Martin to Miami talk while behind the scenes it was actually increasing and at the same time letting out the smoke screens of Jeter/Larranaga. I think its giving way too much credit to the mess that has been the Miami coaching search to believe that they could pull that off and get Martin in there. It just seems clear to me that no one in any power at Miami to hire a coach or influence the hire wants Frank Martin.

When's Angel signing fellas, thought that was going down 2 days ago, how long has the early signing period been open now, a week right??  How come AR hasn't signed his LOI??

If Frank's not going anywhere, how come AR hasn't put his signature on the line that his dotted over a week into the signing period??

Name me the Art/Shaky signee that has gone completely according to some sort of logical plan? I just think Art/Shaky have told Angel to wait until Miami hires their coach to make absolutely sure that Frank is staying at K-State. I'm sure Frank doesn't care either way, he trusts those guys to get him the players he wants. The signing period doesn't end until mid-May anyway. I would only be concerned if info was getting out there that some other high-major was making a run at Angel while he waited, and there has been nothing like that out there.

Thanks for making my point FAN . . . Art and Shaky both know that Frank and Miami is still in play and anybody who thinks that isn't the case is just a dumbass.

In about 80% of coaching searches AD's talk to more than 1 guy, so Tweets about the Miami AD talking to this coach or that coach don't mean all that much.

Until Miami announces a coach not named Frank Martin there is always a chance, I just think it is still extremely slight.

And I'm not talking about the Parrish tweet, I'm talking about those from around Miami the past couple of days. All of them point to Miami not going after Frank at this point.

Wonder how Frank feels being UM's standby ho? They're gonna try everyone else first, and if nobody takes them, they'll go back to FM (who will be ready by the phone).

All the AR non-signing tells me is exactly how much FM wants to go. Even when all signs show that UM doesn't want FM, FM is telling AR to sit steady while he's going mad with hope that he actually gets a call from UM. Must be a massive blow to FMs ego. One would think anyway.

The new AD came out and said what he's looking for in a coach. Frank Martin fit none of the criteria.

I wonder if Frank listened to Haith's introduction press conference.  He pretty much gave a 20 minute explanation of why the U sucks at basketball and why the NIT was the best they were ever going to do given the support from the alumni, school, and local fan base.  This was also his basis for why he was mediocre in Miami but will be the crap in Missouri. 

Frank obviously wants to go home bad.

this is true. I actually bitched about him paying so much attention to Ellis when he probably had a better chance with other elite recruits that he was ignoring. But now he's not ignoring the other elites!

1.  kstate still has a small chance.  it's down a lot from self's (otherwise funny) nosedive in '11 recruiting, but he could concievably still pull something out his ass in '11 and get other early '12s.
2.  it's important for perception to compete for elite instate talent.  if you accept your own status as second tier, it makes it very easy for everyone else to do the same.  competing for elites makes you a more acceptable choice for the top 50-150 type locals that ku routinely passes up.

LARRANAGA GENESIS!
After passing on Frank Martin, Miami prez
targets crusty old dude from George Mason


(https://goemaw.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fgraphics8.nytimes.com%2Fimages%2Fblogs%2Fthequad%2Flarranagaobama.JPG&hash=32d75feeb2ff9ef98774dabda0209952e5457660)
"Yes, I'm absolutely a better head coach than Frank Martin,"
Larranaga said. "I got two words for you: Final Four!"


George Mason University men’s basketball coach Jim Larranaga is reportedly a serious candidate for the head coaching vacancy at the University of Miami. A Patriots’ spokesperson has confirmed that the 61-year-old Larranaga was given permission to interview with Miami athletic department officials.

“We can confirm that Miami reached out and we have granted permission for Coach Larranaga to speak with Miami,” said Dan Reisig, the George Mason University Athletic Communications Director for Men’s Basketball. “Other than that I'm not sure of any other details.”

Gary Parrish of CBSSports.com also reported on Thursday that Larranaga “has had serious discussions with Miami officials about the coaching vacancy.”

cause lawrence not signing isn't a sign that frank is doing everything he can and/or believing with every ounce of his soul that a miami offer is on the way.  it's really pathetic.  i'm waiting for a nice clip of martin saying "I'm ready for my close-up Mr. Demille".

I think Frank knows why they don't want him and has moved on. And I find it highly unlikely that they'll go through all these coaches and come back to Frank. They'll keep going through nice guy coaches until they find one that says yes, Frank just doesn't fit what they want.

The brass at K-State already had contingency plans in place earlier this week and last to start a coaching search, and Frank had gone silent.



Please tell me it started and ended with Pearl.

Tuckville has deduced that Frank to Miami was all just a "conspiracy", yet one of Frank's "top" recruits who is under the wings of Frank's Miami Mafia still hasn't signed and is clearly still waiting until contracts are signed between Miami and their new coach before the kid signs with Frank (K-State).   

Yet, it was all just a conspiracy theory.

I remind myself that these are the same people who thought Jon Wefald and Tim Weiser were the end all and the be all . . . now the new administration at K-State are firmly cementing the Wefald/Weiser period as Clown Suit USA.

Ksu is now about to full-scale rationalize the fact that their head coach badly wants to be somewhere else. Trust me, they (everyone) are laughing at Ksu just as much as Miami.

I think in all honesty, few of you even on this site will be able to look at Frank the same way or even your program the same way under Frank's control from here on out. He's too pathetic and too openly interested in other jobs, not to have some pride kick in. And it will kick in, when Frank goes about losing badly in the next few seasons.

Actually, pretty much everyone knew Miami was a special situation for Frank, and realized he would probably seriously consider going to there the next time it came up. Like I said earlier, it wasn't like he was whoring himself out for NC State or Oregon or DePaul - it was Miami, and I really don't have a problem with him trying to explore the possibility.

Furthermore, no one looked at KSU as a destination job before this. This changes nothing.

I believe that would be construed as a "package deal" by the NCAA which has deemed those to be outlawed in the past couple years. Good thought, but don't think Houston could get away with it in the current NCAA landscape.

"non-coaching positions" is the way the legislation reads which would lead you to believe that hiring the party as an assistant would be permissible.

All I can say is that ever since the rule was implemented(early 2009 I believe), I have not seen 1 instance of an assistant being brought on along with a player, aka the traditional package deal. I certainly could have missed it, but don't think there have been any high-profile exapmles.

Houston/Copes might be a good test of that.

If 'te doesn't get a sniff from George Washington he may as well pack it in now. 

Wasn't 'te on the OU rumor list at the beginning?    Gotta think if he made an OU list, he could make a GW list  :dunno:

No shot he was really on their list.  High majors no matter how little they care about basketball would have someone with Delonte's resume on their list for a head coaching job, it would be unprecedented.

Situations aren't at all alike.  Not uncommon for a long time assistant to get a decent job in college football, it is extremely rare for it to happen in basketball.  Te' will get a job at a school like George Washington or Howard before he will be considered for a job like OU.  I sure BV could have had a FCS job by now if he wanted one.

Yeah that really sucks. No one saw this coming a month ago.

But then again, it's aTm so they deserve bad things upon them

Agree... hope they have a nice epic fail coaching search and have to settle for the DOBO at TX-Pan Am

i wonder if malone is mad at hill, or just at kstate?  if turgeon chose to invite him along could he suddenly pull two years of dcas like the rutgers guy did when he left georgetown?

Is there a chance of Turgeon doing this, or are you just playing the "what if?" game?

No chance. Didn't do much at a&m. That program ain't been crap since billy clyde

I'd be shocked if A&M hired a major conference HC.  Its just too close to the bottom tier of coaching jobs amongst those schools for anyone to find it a step up, barring ridiculous money.  Pretty much have to go mid-major or asst coach.

i think they're prepared to pay, if they have to (reasonable money, not buzz williams money).  but the mid-major coach hypothesis seems pretty likely.  some pretty dece options in the region.  utep, n. texas, tulsa, wichita st, the other sutton kid.

n. texas guy looks pretty good, has recruited dfw well.  has ties to louisiana.  add those to a&m's home region of houston - pretty nice base to build a team.

Texas A&M no Duke of the West
By Kirk Bohls | Tuesday, May 10, 2011, 05:02 PM

It’s a shame Mark Turgeon left Texas A&M for Maryland, the third-best coaching gig in the Atlantic Coast Conference. He’s an outstanding coach, a terrific person and should do well with the Terrapins.

The Aggies, however, are left with having to replace a great coach for the third time in six years. Billy Gillispie left after two solid seasons to take over Kentucky before getting fired and resurfacing in Texas Tech. Turgeon’s Aggies reached the NCAA Tournament all four of his seasons and were widely known as great defensive teams that milked all of their potential.

That said, A&M isn’t Duke. Not even close. It hasn’t had the rich history of a basketball powerhouse like Kansas or even a perennial Top 25 program like Texas.
For instance, while the Aggies have never won the Big 12 title, the Longhorns have won or shared three of them. Three Aggies are playing in the NBA, but none is remotely considered a star, not even the much-heralded point guard Acie Law. Texas has 10 in the pros, including two-time NBA scoring champion Kevin Durant, with three more on the way from Rick Barnes’ last team. Only two Aggies have even been selected to the All-Big 12 team — Donald Sloan and Law. Ten Longhorns — including Chris Mihm twice — have been chosen to the all-conference first team.

While the Aggies have never been higher than a third seed in the NCAA Tournament during the Big 12 era and gone 6-6 in Tournament play with one Sweet 16 appearance, the Longhorns have won 34 games (to the Aggies’ nine overall) and been to a Final Four although they have dropped off of late.
All this suggests A&M is a place for basketball overachieving and not exactly a destination for NBA talent, so it might not be able to lure a coach with high stature like the types Maryland was courting in Sean Miller, Jay Wright and Mike Brey.

That said, Bill Byrne has made one great hire after another and scored big with his last two basketball hires. Buzz Williams of Marquette would be a steal if Byrne can lure him away, but I’m thinking he’d come away with someone like Nebraska’s Doc Sadler.

He fits the mold as a hard-scrabble, defensive-minded, well-respected and popular coach with Texas roots as a former Texas-El Paso head coach and an assistant at Lamar, Houston and Texas Tech. Plus, Sadler is much more affordable, making just $900,000 a year after a recent raise. I also think he would greatly prefer the Big 12 over the Big Ten with its great coaches and great scouting.



Come back to us, old friend :love:

Maryland, Dalonte Hill will talk or have already

Wouldn't this be a full-circle at its finest...


After we just a few days ago revisited Gary Williams' comments about Kansas State associate head coach Dalonte Hill, the man who replaced him, Mark Turgeon, is now trying to get Hill to join the Terrapins bench.


Confirmed through sources, Hill and Maryland today either talked already, or will, to at least discuss the possibility of him leaving Manhattan for home - a story that has become more than just well-known to KSU fans over the past few seasons.

Kansas State is aware of the situation.

Known for having brought Michael Beasley to K-State, having Hill return home with his recruiting ties would be a major coup for Turgeon, who has watched virtually the entire incoming class ask for its release since his hire.

His Uncle is Roland Houston one of the assistants on that former staff of Hobbs.  Wouldn't you think his uncle would possibly leverage his commitment into a new assistant gig somewhere?

http://zagsblog.com/ (http://zagsblog.com/)

Quote
Copes, who was released from his letter of intent with George Washington on Tuesday, decided it was best to move on. The program fired head coach Karl Hobbs, who along with Copes’ uncle, Roland Houston, recruited the star senior to George Washington. Houston was recently hired by new George Mason head coach Paul Hewitt as an assistant. This led to Copes taking an official visit this weekend and his ultimate decision.

Looks like Roland made it work for himself.

Everyone wants Danny Kaspar from SFA. He's been consistently good with them and SFA didn't exactly have a great run of success before him. The problem is our program isn't that much better than theirs in terms of intangibles (the stadium and facilities are slightly nicer, conference is better, salary is a wild card) and on the court we've sucked ass since 1996 so we'd have to make it rain to lure him.

Another name being thrown around is Russell Springman, Texas asst. coach, aka the guy the recruited Durant, Augustin, and Damion James. Doesn't have a great HC resume (light on experience) but we can't be picky.

A couple of names thrown against the wall by our rivals site are Billy Gillispie since he used to work at Texas State and.....drumroll....DOC!

enjoying the memphis discussion, but remember: Memphis is a hotbed for basketball talent, so it would take some serious coin to pry pastner away from such an easy situation. I don't doubt k-state and others will try though. It'd be good for my team if someone was to pilfer pastner away from Memphis State. We haven't got the top player from memphis since Nolan left.

Well i love mike, as most arkansans' do but there is one thing. I really don't like his offense. i love the defense, and once he gets all his players in place i will judge his ability then. his system struggles without any post players, and we didn't have much besides 6'7 powell this season besides mickelson, who is the softest big man ever. luckily we brought in a top 15 powerforward and a top 50 center. what we do next year will help me decide whether i approve of the hire or not. really though i won't be happy until they build a statue of Nolan. People play down the adversity he faced over here during his tenure. The AD at the time used to call him the N word to his face and publicly humiliate him. Embarassing for our state. atleast the bad person and all his cronies are gone now.

So?  My logic was that final fours show a propensity for success whereas a lone appearance in a final could be a fluke.  KSU exceeds Memphis' accomplishments in every category, that was the main point.

He's telling you that Memphis has been to 3 Final Fours, dumbass, including one in 2008 which I'm not sure how you can't remember.

There is quite a bit of crime(think Detroit/Oakland) and low-income areas.  Drive down Poplar Ave (https://maps.google.com/maps?um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=bail+bonds+memphis&fb=1&gl=us&hq=bail+bonds&hnear=0x87d57e1eea439745:0xd193f315601ab6fe,Memphis,+TN&sa=X&ei=PNdRUZnlJ5KBqQGDhoHACQ&ved=0CNoBELYD) and you'll find out that bail bonds is the leading industry.  Plenty of good eats(amazing dry rub BBQ and fried chicken) and Beale Street can be a lot of fun if you like clubs or  bars with rockabilly bands like The Dempseys.  Of course any city would be nice to live in if you're a Millionaire Basketball Coach. Jeff Buckley drowned to death there.

Ridiculous that Walker has to compete for a job against those retreads, he did a very good job at Tech considering the circumstances. That list is a freaking joke, none of those guys should be candidates at a BCS school. I wish black coaches got as many chances to flame out as those losers.

Zagsblog saying it's likely Gottfried to UCLA now.  NC State has a stud 2013 class.  Feeding frenzy if he leaves.     

That seems like a poor fit. Zagoria has a pretty poor record of being right about anything that happens outside of the 212.

“Mark said he wants it and the boosters want Mark Gottfried,” the source told SNY.tv. “He’s got the support of the boosters.”

Gottfried has deep ties to UCLA, having served as an assistant there for eight years, including the 1994-95 national championship season under Jim Harrick.

Gottfried couldn't sustain anything at Alabama and was fired/resigned, correct?   This is where UCLA is at?  This is why UP's are stupid.  If you're a tradition rich proram and you can't hire elite talent, it's because the guy that's doing the hiring has made it a horrible environment and should be fired.

None of that contradicts what I posted. So are we going to ignore his head coaching record or are we going to focus on his time as an assistant 18 years ago? They may select him, and that's fine, but he seems to be a dime a dozen as far as college basketball coaches go. How is he any different than oscar Weber? Pretty sure we would have been angry, not as though, if Gottfried replaced Martin. It's UCLfreakingA they either need to go get someone with accomplishments or a rising star assistant who has shown the ability to get lots of players.

Pastner would build a monster at UCLA.

Pastner needs to get out of Memphis this year.  I’m not sure what job would open up that he’d want next year – maybe if Barnes has another bad year, UT fires him and the ripple affect opens a job up for Pastner.  But if Pastner leaves next year I would imagine oscar Pearl would (or I guess should) be #1 on Memphis’ list (as Pearl’s probation is up in Aug ’14).  And if Pearl goes to Memphis, there would be zero chance of him ever coming to KSU – not that there’s much anyway but at that point, that hope would just bite down on the cyanide pill.

Hell yes he will.  He's already been doing it at NC State.  He's landed three McD's AAs in his first two classes along with several other top-100 studs.

Right? Absolutely nobody small timey on there. It's completely the opposite of what I'm used to. Word is we're willing to offer about 200-225k for the next coach which is not quite double what we paid our last garbage coach. I'm really excited.

oakland isn't what people think oakland is.  richmond is maybe what people think oakland is.

i haven't lived in oakland, but it appears crime & poverty are still problems:  http://sfist.com/2012/10/19/oakland_stockton_make_forbes_most_v.php
i'm sure much of the city is lovely, but i'm also sure that at least a handful of neighborhoods have serious problems.  the same thing with Memphis.  Sure, you can stay in The Peabody and watch the ducks take the elevator down from the penthouse for their daily swim in the fountain, but you can also live a half-mile away where 80%+ are below poverty.
i think you could have a nice experience in pretty much any city as long as you are :kstategrad: and not a poor.  some cities have areas of poors and high crime. oakland is one of those cities.  doesn't mean the whole place sucks.

I had no idea that Stl Mo was that dangerous.

someone hasn't seen national lampoon's vacation.

Their experience in the hood happened before they're crossed the river so I assumed it was in Illinois. :dunno:

mr. walker just got himself hired.

His recruiting results are great, no doubt. It just seems odd to me that UCLA would be interested in a coach that has been high on promise but low on delivery. Considering history and location it very well may be the best job in America.

I feel like you are asking or hinting at something other than what you asked because there isn't much debate on the top five programs, the debate is in the order, and frankly who cares about the order.

1. UCLA- all of the history and tradition of Kentucky without the loony fans and the fact that it isn't in Kentucky
2. Kentucky
3. UNC
4. Kansas



5. Duke, Syracuse, Indiana, Arizona, Florida

I'm guessing this wouldn't look much different for most. I didn't put Duke alone in the top 5 simply because they can't get any player.

They just upgraded Pauley and history actually indicates they are very patient with coaches. They've only had 3 coaches since 1988, the problem with UCLA coaches is they tend to find trouble for the program outside the scope of wins and losses.

You're right about players being everywhere, but there is only one Westwood. I don't have to tell you how amazing So Cal can be for a young guy.

The greatest indication of how good of a job UCLA is since John Wooden retired UCLA has had 9 head coaches, the worst losing percentage of these 9 coaches is Walt Hazzard at 62%.

No just wondered.  It just made me think a little bit.  I agree with the top tier programs for the most part, but I started questioning the actual value, to a high-end coach of being at UCLA. 

The things I questioned:
1. prominence - sure, UCLA is a high-clout job in cbb, but is it still that big of a deal in LA?  I count Dodgers, Angels, USC football, Lakers, and now Clippers as bigger tickets than UCLA bball.  They have to compete directly with 1/2 of USC football season, and all of the LAkers and Clippers.

2. The support and funding for UCLA bball as compared to other top-tier programs.  I don't think it compares and other "football first" schools also heavily fund bball and there is little pressure. 

I would say that there are a lot of recruits in the CA area though.

I would put UCLA below UNC for the above reasons and add recruiting - when there is a great player in North Carolina the odds are much higher that UNC gets him than UCLA with similar recruits.  UK and KU are the same way but obviously produce fewer can't miss prospects.

Additionally, I imagine the LA lifestyle may not appeal to some guys - most college coaches come from pretty simple backgrounds

I can see that side of it, but one doesn't pass on a disciple of Pitino. Tubby Smith can win at a high level, but like all Pitino disciples he runs a clean ship, so it will take alot longer. If Billy Donovan and Tubby were willing to cheat they would be fielding teams of one and dones just like Calipari. A team will take a pass at Tubby, probably a mid major and he will finish out his career their. If the right team gets ahold of tubby smith look the eff out. Minnesota is ignorant if they think they can do better than he.

If I were Tech, I don't blame them for getting Tubby for 3-4 years to get the program to somewhat competitive and wash the stink off the job.  Then I would fire him and try for a good coach.

McDermott, can't believe I forgot his name.  Anyway, I think his son will go to the draft.  And I think ISU would be a good fit.  IIRC, he coached at some valley school in iowa.

You are right, McDermott may set sail for the pro's, but i really doubt it he does unless he has a legitimate shot at the first round. then again bj young and marshawn powell are leaving for the draft at Arkansas, so it wouldn't surprise me if McDermott leaves creighton. It'd be a good year to go since their aren't very many clear cut stars in the class(other than mclemore, smart, young, porter and noel who will all get drafted because of their potential)

1. McDermott is declaring for the draft, he participated in Creighton's senior day and was the last player to be subbed for when they blew out WSU to conclude the regular season.
2. LHC Bill Snyder should take lessons from Hoiberg with regards to giving the hometown discount. At $2 million he will be no higher than the 8th highest paid coach in the conference. If Tech hires Tubby Smith it will certainly be for at least 2. Trent Johnson is at 1.5

UCLA hired New Mexico coach Steve Alford on Saturday to replace Ben Howland, ending a process that had rapidly changed direction several times over the past few days.

"It's been a difficult morning to tell a team that I dearly love and a team and built last six years," Alford said in a Saturday afternoon news conference in Albuquerque.

After today, he's in LHC Bill Snyder territory at WSU. I'm guessing he, Smart and Stevens pretty come up for every opening. They'll probably only get picked off by the real blue bloods or Texas.

I don't know if it will get them into the new or old Big East, but it might get them considered as a non-football MWC member which I think would be a pretty good fit for them.

John Beilein
Sean Miller

They just spent $138MM dollars to rebuild their arena, but can't come up with an extra $10MM over the next 5 years to get one of these six before they settled on Steve Alford?  You're UCLA, step it the eff up.

They can and will. He isn't leaving this season and I wouldn't doubt if he got a contract similar to the one Hoiberg just got. I don't think he will stay at WSU if he continues to win. Marshall has a world famous giant ego, even for coaches. Stevens and Smart seem very comfortable where they are. Marshall would have taken the UCLA job if Dan Guerreo was patient. Its also entirely possible that the big boosters at UCLA, who are agents BTW, didn't feel Marshall fit what they wanted.

He won't leave for any of the current jobs because they aren't any good. Not sure what you mean by saying he isn't a jumper. He has interviewed for other jobs since he's been at WSU and routinely makes Royesque shows about deciding to stay at WSU and Winthrop before that, of course he stays after contract renegotiations.

We'll see how Marshall ends up, but its clear not all the really good non-AQ coaches are looking to jump at their first chance. Few really started it and Smart and Stephens have followed. Altman and Larrananga are a couple that jumped, but stayed at their programs several more seasons after they peaked. If anything, they left when their non-AQ programs were on a downward trend, but still could get a decent AQ job.

The only one of those things that are inarguably true is the last point and that doesn't make it a better job. Coaches would commit homicide to coach at Kentucky where they will fire you after one season. Nebraska has Tim Miles. Also the recruiting budget thing isn't as big of a deal at UCLA or UT for that matter, they have quick and cheap access to many of the best players.

I don't think saying UT has more resources than UCLA is arguable, one just needs to look at the budgets, UT's is over half what UCLA's is. 

UCLA's AD maybe a moron (his FB hire looks pretty good) and/or the agent boosters may have run a terrible search but I would bet UT has a much better coaching search and hires a better candidate when the job comes up next.

Even the quality of life in Austin may appeal to some guys over the UCLA job, not everyone wants the headaches of LA - it's not like the 4 or 5 2 to 3 mill UCLA is going to pay is enough to afford the helo that true ballers use to get around

So TT is racist right?

I tried baiting him earlier with no luck.

If you were that unimaginative I would still be P.I.ing you. We all know Emo is a rough ridin' moron, this isn't breaking new ground here. He read what I wrote and took out of it that I would have thought TT were racists if they hired a white coach. Why would I waste the time on a paste eating mouthbreather who wouldn't understand anyway?



Also if I wasn't previously clear, this hire was stupid and walker should have gotten the job.

Some ADs like the "safe" hire. Weber was safe for Currie. Tubby is safe for Holcutt. .

in a  lot of ways,  Texas  is a  better job  than UCLA

absurd

How many is "a lot?"

I will name a few:

Better facilities
Bigger budget for recruiting (assumption)
Better private planes (assumption)
Higher pay
Lower performance goals that must be met to retain employment

The only one of those things that are inarguably true is the last point and that doesn't make it a better job. Coaches would commit homicide to coach at Kentucky where they will fire you after one season. Nebraska has Tim Miles. Also the recruiting budget thing isn't as big of a deal at UCLA or UT for that matter, they have quick and cheap access to many of the best players.
I don't think saying UT has more resources than UCLA is arguable, one just needs to look at the budgets, UT's is over half what UCLA's is. 

UCLA's AD maybe a moron (his FB hire looks pretty good) and/or the agent boosters may have run a terrible search but I would bet UT has a much better coaching search and hires a better candidate when the job comes up next.

Even the quality of life in Austin may appeal to some guys over the UCLA job, not everyone wants the headaches of LA - it's not like the 4 or 5 2 to 3 mill UCLA is going to pay is enough to afford the helo that true ballers use to get around

I don't disagree with any of this. I think those of you arguing the UT job is better are arguing what it should be and I again don't disagree with any of the points, but the reality is that college basketball views UCLA as a better job. Using the arguments you guys are making you can say UT is a top 2 job but no one believes that. Deloss doesn't have the confidence in the job that some of you do as evidenced by his latitude given to Barnes.

He didn't really win at Iowa, though.  He had a losing Big Ten record over eight years.  He only had three seasons with a winning record in the Big Ten.

In 18 years as a D1 coach, he's been to the NCAA tournament 7 times.  He's only gotten out of the first weekend one time (1999).

His resume was worse than oscar's...

Grew up watching Iowa hoops when he was there, but from what a remember a sophomore guard was accused of rape, entered a guilty plea and through all that Alford was very publicly advocating his innocence and questioning the credibility of the victim. Even after he had pled guilty.

And then last week he signed a 10 year extension with UNM, and then took the UCLA job the day before his buyout went from 175k to 1m.

First of all the three coaches before him were Tom Davis, George Raveling, and Lute Olson. He didn't outperform any of them. Secondly, he didn't win at Iowa. A 58% winning clip, is real average.

Alford would walk into stores (hardware, clothing, appliance, etc.) and walk out with merchandise without paying because hey's king crap of eff mountain and he's owed these things. One time I guess he just loaded up a like a snowblower into his truck and drove off.  I think these are pretty "open" secrets if you ask Iowa fans.  I am sure stories from UNM will be coming out soon as well.

As a coach, Alford is pretty much Dana Altman part 2. His exit from Iowa was very similar to Altman's exit from K-State; both "resigned" and took jobs at non-AQ schools. Alford's success at New Mexico is very similar to Altman's at Creighton.

Just had him on one of the CBS studio chats with the group.  Okay-ish interview.  I really wonder about the comparo to Frank.

The lead benefactor for Marquette basketball is Dick Strong, a spectacular maniacal narcissist of the highest order.  Good for Buzz.

Legitimate question, have been people been using that as a reason for him being hired on this board? Haven't paid attention. I mean, a season like this certainly doesn't hurt, and all thing being equal then it might become a factor, but lots of bad hires are definitely made using that criterion.

Brad should be at SFA for at least two more years (during which he will likely have a successful run as head coach), hopefully around that time oscar will be on his way out. I think he'll be the best option for us at that point in time. I don't think Doug will still be available in two years. Speaking of Doug, if Ford is fired soon is there any chance of the Pokes looking at him?

No. The Doug thing is over. Even if it weren't the differences between he and Hoiberg before he got to ISU are pretty broad.

I'll agree he's no Hoiberg, just an interesting prospect for the Pokes from my point of view. The OKstate fans I know all want Ford fired but they don't have a clear cut choice for his replacement.

I don't think Doug will still be available in two years.

If he thinks his stock will go down this next year, he could maybe jump to Marquette.  If he thinks he can sustain success at WSU (of course not undefeated but tournament team), he will stick it out until better openings come around.

I think Mid-Major coaches used to think they had to go to a lower tier BCS job before getting the elite job.  Now they know they can just stick at their lower tier, dominate comfortably and still get that elite gig.

It will be interesting to see who Marquette gets.

At more than $260,000 per player per year, Marquette spends more on men's basketball than any school in the country except Duke. At $2.8 million a season, Williams was drawing a top-10 salary. The Golden Eagles stay in five-star hotels and little expense is spared on the coach during recruiting trips.

Marshall should stay put this year. He has enough clout to get a blue-blood even if he drops off over the next couple of years. (I mean, how can it NOT drop off?)

If Underwood can land a WSU or equivalent, he should take it ASAP.

Any of these coaches would be fools to go to Wake.  Syracuse, Duke, UNC, Louisville, VaTech just hired a pretty good coach, and Virginia may string together some good seasons.  No reason to take over a mid-level program in that hornet's nest.

This is true.  How sad for us and him if that were to happen. 

You could have a really good team and there would be 1000's of empty seats for most games.  It really is a pathetic fan base given their logistics and the fact that their university system only allows one campus to really succeed.

This was the biggest concern in one of the articles I read. OSU owes him another 11 million through 2019. He would have to have another high paying job waiting for him in order to keep OSU from losing that money. http://www.tulsaworld.com/sportsextra/johnehoover/john-e-hoover-if-travis-ford-is-out-at-osu/article_0eadc864-94a8-5971-aaf9-3178c7db9496.html.

Do you watch Oklahoma State games? The entire fan base hates him, those empty seats aren't producing a plug nickle. They can't ride this out until his buyout is pared down. Their already sad ticket revenue will no doubt be worse next season. If this continues next year, and it will, they have to cut him.

Probably. I wonder if they would have started talks with oscar Pearl if he was available last weekend. I think it would have been a great fit for both parties. They could poach someone elses coach too like VA Tech did.

I still think he'll get one more year to prove himself (with either a confy win or tourney run). It seems like their Athletic department is much more concerned with Football anyways. But then again, I can't predict crap and Ford could very well be looking for a job by this time next week. Pearl did seem like a homerun hire for them if Ford is crap-canned...

K was quoted recently as saying at least 5 more years, but i think you're right, all time wins death match.

just had this convo while watching the 1st round games in hollywood with some elite sister school duke alums.  our consensus was that K will be there as long as it takes for collins to be ready and K to secure all time wins

wojo is too young and dawkins is too old
What about Tommy?

On the death match, I would not of guessed K is 3 years younger than Boeheim until I looked it up, I thought it was the other way around.

Did your Hollywood Duke party bros and broettes say what qualifies as ready as far as Collins is concerned?  Seems pretty vague for some rabid Tinseltown USA Blue Devil fanatics. :Bullsh!t: :confused:

Even if he stinks it up for the other purple wild wildcats of Evanston, IL?  Wojo has already delivered a nice meaty slappity slap to Chris' lips with the much better first job oppie.  Wojo is going to be gun blading NCAA tourney births and running train on BE confy 'ships while Chrissy is going to be the last segment in a Mark Turgeon-Tim Miles human centipede.  NCAA tourney I hardly knew ye says CC.  :eek:

i know manning was a "new" coach and all and i have no idea what resources tulsa has, but haith was making in the neighborhood of $1M more at mizzou than manning was at tulsa

Rumor is Haith is getting in the 1.5 range.  Also, they offered Manning 1.7 to stay.

Just saying what they were saying on Tulsa radio.  The guys talking about it were a mid-90s TU grad that's covered TU for 20 years and another guy who has written for the Tulsa World since the 70s.  Both are pretty well connected.

There may be two or three jobs he considers better than ISU. I don't think he will go. He has 3 school aged kids, and he's at a place where he'll be loved more than he would anywhere else. This place is home for her and his wife also has the best job security ever.

Hard to say. The big thing with that is family nearby means support for his kids and wife during the procedure, which will apparently take over a month of recovery. If it was in summer time, they could be sent to Ames too. Who knows. We don't want to lose our guy. It doesn't take a genius to realize that.

I'm not sure that you know exactly what you're talking about...

Because they had to hire a recruiting firm to get a guy that would have taken the job no questions asked, that's what's so funny.  Also, I'm assuming here, that Anderson was at the bottom of their list, so that's also funny.  It's clearly pretty funny.

Yes, it is funny they wasted 50,000 or whatever it was. And I doubt he was on the bottom of the list. The guy won 75% of his games at Central Mizzou. They weren't going to shell out the big bucks to steal a high profile HC. I'm sure they would have rather of had Ben Howland but he probably turned them down.

Funny story:  On the radio they were throwing around the name of former Mizzou player Kim Anderson as a candidate that should be considered for the Mizzou job, and for a minute I was thinking "Kim English" and I was like "Wow, and they gave us crap about Gottlieb." But, turns out that they are not at all the same guy at all.

Turns out Kim Anderson and Rich Daly are also not the same person, which I may or may not have thought.  (Obivously I need to spend more time thinking about Mizzou basketball assistants.)

I don't think they got told no by as many people as you think. The price they were willing to pay a coach kinda limited who they were going to get. Hearing that they were going to be in the neighborhood of $1.5 mil, it seemed obvious that their targets were Anderson, Mike White, and an assistant somewhere. They didn't contact Gregg Marshall and I wonder if they didn't contact Ben Howland either. They really should have ended up with Howland.

No.  The Illinois AD at the time hired oscar because it was an ultra-safe hire.  oscar was never going to leave like Kruger and Self did.  It was dickless and weak and scared.  Illinois was attractive at the time.  Self and Kruger had it rolling.  He could have hired another up and coming guy like say Matta who would have been a challenge to hold onto if he blew up.  He was a small-minded scorned coward instead. 

This seems like a lack of options more than a safe hire.  I mean their last hire was very questionable and then he beat the posse out of town.  They're hurting.  They didn't want this, they had to accept it.

It was pretty common knowledge that they weren't going to pay a coach $2 million and it's equally well known that Marshall isn't leaving WSU for less than $2.7, minimum, so I have to wonder how serious and lengthy the conversation went. They must have talked over the weekend because as of Friday Gary Parrish, obvs a better source than Jenn Bates, said that Mizzou didn't contact Marshall or his attorney. I'm guessing it was a last hail mary before settling on Anderson. Non old ballz Mizzou fans must be seeking answers as to why they couldn't make it work with Howland.

Yeah, I don't think they had any chance with Marshall. It is interesting that they talked. And yes, to seemingly make no attempt at Howland has to be infuriating to much of their fan base.

Speculation is that he's waiting for either Michigan State, Florida, Indiana, Louisville, UNC, or Kentucky; all of which could potentially be open as soon as next week or as late as 5 years from now.

They owe Kobe and Nash $33M next year. Unless LeBron goes there this summer (won't happen) they aren't in a very good situation. If Pau doesn't re-sign they are screwed.

It's rough ridin' stupid for him to go to Alabama, and he only needs to look at Anthony Grant and Shaka Smart to see why. Rebuilding is stupid hard when you haven't been a head coach at that level. If I were Marshall, I wouldn't take Indiana, Texas, or any other program that fired its previous coach. Hold out for Self or Cal retiring or going to the NBA or something.

Yeah, he can wait for what he wants.

This type of interest should get Wichita to pay him $2 Mil (or more) though. He's at $1.75 Mil now.

Roy will retire before Self or Cal. That being said, I really didn't think Self would ever leave for an NBA job. But I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Self considers it with the way his dumbass fanbase treats him. Maybe he doesn't care, but how the hell can you win 11 Big 12 titles in a row and have your fan base be unsatisfied because of your performance in the tournament after you won an NC 7 years ago?

he wants to leave Wichita because he wants to win a national title and you cant' do that without recruiting real honest to god bigs. I mean, he brought Hurt in for an official visit for god's sake.

I want him at Texas soooo badly but I think he might listen to somebody like Bama.  He is a Southerner so I don't think he as hung up on being the HC at football school as his mannerisms might indicate.  I do think he wants a job that has a roster that can win right away and Bama's top 2 scorers graduating makes it unlikely imo.

wherever he goes, it should be somewhere that the coach leaves in good standing. Like, if Anthony Grant had been kicking ass and took the Indiana job or something, then looking closely at Bama makes sense. The only case Marshall should consider replacing a fired coach is if Barnes for some stupid reason gets let go. But that's different, obviously.

I will be surprised if Barnes is back, if the new AD fired Mack after going 8-4 (7-2) with a chance to win the conference on the last game of the year there is no way he will keep Barnes.

Also, Donovan to the Magic rumblings are out there again and that job seems perfect for Gregg but I could see Florida preferring Shaka Smart.

KU might be a slightly better job (tradition is really KUs biggest adv) but I don't see Miller leaving something that he already has up and running just to play in AFH in town with worse weather and more recruiting challenges.

i don't think they'd offer just anyone.  seems like it would have to be the best of the younger long term guys?  the miller idea is a good one.  i would love for them to hire turgeon.
i'm also not sure if there are any nba guys who would consider the move but those guys are mostly all older and their age would disqualify them from consideration.

PHX/KC are irrelevant for a program the stature of AZ/KU. Really, national recruiting is far more important than both, but I would argue KU's proximity to Chicago and Texas and being closer to the East Coast is a lot more valuable.

And you are absolutely right that Indiana has much better natural recruiting base than KU does. (So does Notre Dame, for example).

KU fans I talk to all say "Brad Stevens" over and over again.

It's like Kentucky and Louisville got a big time college guy that failed in the NBA, so they need to get one of those, too.
Stevens is not failing at all in Boston. Their roster has been completely gutted for future 1st round picks and he has them 1/2 a game out of the playoffs. He's not leaving any time soon.

This is correct. He's doing great.

I don't know what some of you are doing with the Texas and Alabama jobs.  They are for all intents and purposes the same job.  Yes, Texas is absolutely better but all of the things people trumpet that makes Texas great, Alabama has the same elements. 

They both have all the money a basketball program needs. They both are football schools in football states which leads to not nearly as much pressure on the basketball coach. They both play in conferences with one blue blood and a bunch of other schools that can easily be passed. They both have close access to many talented players. Alabama recruits Georgia, Florida,  Mississippi, Tennessee, and Louisiana just as easily as UT recruits east and west Texas.

If he's offered both UT is the better choice because they're more ready to win now but Alabama isn't nearly the pit some of you think it is. The $3 million was a starting point, Parrish said he wouldn't be surprised if they went to 4 or 5 for 3Gs.  He also said that Alabama will commit to improving facilities. Mike Slive apparently sent a directive to the schools outlining why it is important that they take basketball seriously. Finally Parrish said that Nick Saban will be actively involved in the bid for Marshall. He thinks Gregg will leave WSU for Alabama but will take UT if it's offered.

I also want to talk about what Mississippi State did to Rick Ray :opcat:

Yes they were no good after his third year but when he took over the entire team was in Mississippi State's drug program. Pretty tough to get a team cleaned up, improve the grades and improve the apr, and win at a place like Mississippi State. So he cleans up the program and they repay him by working with Adidas to work out a deal with another coach while he still has a job. Also eff Ben Howland for doing that to another coach.

I wish the BCA actually had some power because this is the type of bullshit they fight against.

I agree. I'm pretty sure I said he should consider Bama if Grant had improved the program and went for greener pastures. I don't think Barnes should be fired, because you're absolutely right that they are comparable to schools like Bama and LSU and he has blown them out of the water.

Yeah, I don't know either. I'm sure MIR is correct that the program was a mess when he arrived, but I would think Ray could make more push than he did in 3 years. The guy lost 62% of his games (75% in conference) and beat 5 total Top 100 teams over his first 3 seasons.

Also, I'm sure Stansbury is the probably the ultimate Bruceketball nightmare.

Grant proved that you could recruit at a high level there, and I guess I parallel that job to Florida more than Texas.  The SEC is ripe for a lot of meaningless wins (theoretically...hasn't panned out for Mizzou or Frank, unfortunately, though).  If Marshall just got them to the tournament 4/5 years, even at 4 million, I think they'd probably build a statue of him somewhere.

Stansbury got players but the program was completely in shambles. His last year was a 20+ win season by it was also the same session where Renardo Sidney was fighting his teammates in the stands at the Diamondhead. The, I believe, top 6 scorers from that team were gone the next year because of graduation, the draft, or being kicked out of school. MUS didn't commit to basketball the way they should have so Stansbury cut corners to make it work. Ray got the directive to clean up the program but they still didn't commit resources. Ray did what they asked him to do, he got kids to go to class and pass drug tests and he didn't take kids like Renardo Sidney. He got them clean then they blindsided him. Now Howland gets the benefit of not having to change the culture of the program and he will absolutely get the benefit of greater resources.

Now Howland gets the benefit of not having to change the culture of the program and he will absolutely get the benefit of greater resources.

That makes sense, but he still won less than 40% of his games there. Its hard to be patient in that situation and if a program in that situations puts out feelers and finds out they can hire a Howland, they are going to do it. Its not fair to Ray, but their fans want to win (even if their basketball fan base isn't huge) and I'm sure their patience had run out.

As for oscar, going back to Mo Valley level makes some sense. Its similar to why Buzz left Marquette for V Tech. Some guys don't want to put with the expectations (which seems to be a big part of why Buzz left).

Quote
Was Williams in trouble at Marquette?

Not at all.

He had made five NCAA Tournaments (in his first six seasons), advanced to the Sweet 16 three times and the Elite Eight once before the age 40, and most young coaches would become intoxicated with that level of success. Not Williams, though. He instead identified it as the bar set, and then he assembled "facts and data" in an attempt to determine whether it was reasonable to expect to maintain that level of success in a less-attractive Big East while playing league games off of ESPN and on Fox Sports 1. He concluded that it probably wasn't. And what would happen if he didn't? Answer: Williams would fall out of favor with his own fans the same way Ben Howland once did at UCLA, the same way most coaches who stay too long at any basketball-centric school eventually do. Consequently, Williams determined it was wiser to jump while he was still ahead, and though his contract at Virginia Tech is technically for less money on a per-year basis, it's a seven-year deal with an automatic rollover clause that will never allow it to be less than a five-year deal, meaning the security provided makes it a better deal for a man openly planning for the day he's fired.

Beyond that, the bar he set at Marquette no longer exists.

He has a fresh contract and fans with fresh sets of expectations.

Granted its much earlier in his tenure at K-State for oscar, but I'm sure with the issues this season brought, the draw of coaching at a lower level before he retires could be crossing his mind. He may even be having deja vu of his time at Illinois and be thinking, "why go through that again?"

Its hard to be patient in that situation and if a program in that situations puts out feelers and finds out they can hire a Howland, they are going to do it. Its not fair to Ray, but their fans want to win (even if their basketball fan base isn't huge) and I'm sure their patience had run out.

As for oscar, going back to Mo Valley level makes some sense. Its similar to why Buzz left Marquette for V Tech. Some guys don't want to put with the expectations (which seems to be a big part of why Buzz left).

Quote
Was Williams in trouble at Marquette?

Not at all.

He had made five NCAA Tournaments (in his first six seasons), advanced to the Sweet 16 three times and the Elite Eight once before the age 40, and most young coaches would become intoxicated with that level of success. Not Williams, though. He instead identified it as the bar set, and then he assembled "facts and data" in an attempt to determine whether it was reasonable to expect to maintain that level of success in a less-attractive Big East while playing league games off of ESPN and on Fox Sports 1. He concluded that it probably wasn't. And what would happen if he didn't? Answer: Williams would fall out of favor with his own fans the same way Ben Howland once did at UCLA, the same way most coaches who stay too long at any basketball-centric school eventually do. Consequently, Williams determined it was wiser to jump while he was still ahead, and though his contract at Virginia Tech is technically for less money on a per-year basis, it's a seven-year deal with an automatic rollover clause that will never allow it to be less than a five-year deal, meaning the security provided makes it a better deal for a man openly planning for the day he's fired.

Beyond that, the bar he set at Marquette no longer exists.

He has a fresh contract and fans with fresh sets of expectations.

Granted its much earlier in his tenure at K-State for oscar, but I'm sure with the issues this season brought, the draw of coaching at a lower level before he retires could be crossing his mind. He may even be having deja vu of his time at Illinois and be thinking, "why go through that again?"

A big factor for Buzz was getting out of a basketball-only conference.

I didn't know that stuff about Miss St when Ray got there. He did take over a program that won a little bit under Stansbury though and Ray's teams were awful. It would be hard to be patient with very little sign that the program was getting better.

And if Alabama is truly willing to double Gregg's salary, he should absolutely listen. What is the max Wichita will go to keep him? $2 Mil? $2.5?

I have no idea what WSU's athletics budget is but driving that entire budget is hoops so I have a hard time seeing how they wouldn't make more of an effort to keep him.

It depends partly on how much the Koch brothers will pay to keep him in Wichita.

Why in the hell would Gregg Marshall even consider what someone in Brooklyn who may happen to hear Gary Parrish's podcast think about who is and isn't a donor for Wichita State basketball? Even if the Koch Brothers openly pumped millions of dollars into the program why would any liberal care and if they did, and if so it still wouldn't have any negative ramifications for Wichita State basketball? The Koch brothers give money to Kansas State University and there are about 10 people who spend any time even thinking about it. I seriously doubt there would be a single person that matters that would object if the Koch's gave $10,000,000 to KU or KSU athletics.

There is plenty of empirical evidence to show that the Koch's aren't involved in WSU basketball, like the fact that WSU had to buy a jet to fly to Omaha last week instead of using the buses the NCAA provides. Anyone who lives in Wichita knows that the Koch's have multiple jets and if they were big basketball supporters they absolutely would have given WSU athletics the use of one for that 45 minute flight. I also know for a 100% A+++ fact that at least as of 5 years or so ago there were no appearances by the Koch Brothers at very private WSU basketball events.

Nah. Everyone who knows or cares wrongly assumes they do anyway, even people in the media. You have to be a pretty devoted college basketball fan to know that Charles Koch's name is on the arena. Devoted sports fans are not the type of people who would give a crap about the political leanings of a donor, we're not talking about the EBC or the KKK.

It isn't better if they aren't willing to do the things Alabama will do now.  History and tradition doesn't mean a damn thing if your current commitment doesn't evolve with your peers. And that football point is bogus if you think Texas is one of the best jobs because the lack of basketball pressure because of the football team is largely cited as one of the reasons.  Also in this specific case if the most powerful coach in all of college athletics is willing to recruit you and cosign your hire it can only help you and the momentum of your program.

It's also worth noting that Alabama gave the last guy nine years and Tennessee essentially ran off a coach the same year he went to the sweet 16 then fired the next guy one year later for something he allegedly did at another school.

I think this is the biggest thing. I'm sure a lot of coaches think Martin got the shaft there, even his own players at Tennessee were fine with him leaving last year. The perception there is the fans just want Pearl or whoever is the coach to be like Pearl. That's a hard personality to live up to.

I have never understood how DePaul is so bad at basketball when they're surrounded by so much talent in Chicago.

So true, DePaul hasn't had a coach that could keep kids home since Ray Meyer in the 80's. Kentucky, Duke or KU get the best ones now.
1997-98 Conf. Champ team @ ILL, Kruger's roster had 14 of 16 in-state kids. That was amazing.

Bama actually had a pretty decent run in the 80s under Wimp and his plaid jacket.  Looking up his record on wiki (10 NCAA bids in 12 years :surprised:) i was reminded of his "exit"

Nancy Watts, his longtime secretary, filed a sexual discrimination lawsuit against him and the university... Both Sanderson and Watts admitted they had had an affair from about 1970 to 1985, but both offered conflicting stories about what happened on March 17, 1992.

Watts said that on that day, two days before Alabama was to play Stanford in the NCAA Tournament, Sanderson punched her in the face, giving her a black eye, during an argument. Sanderson said Watts had become hysterical and that, in an effort to defend himself, he stuck out his hand. She collided with it, giving her a black eye

Texas Men's Athletic Director Steve Patterson has demanded wholesale changes with the assistant coaching staff from Barnes, and Barnes is not expected to acquiesce to these demands.

Lavin only made the tourney twice in five years. He had a stacked experience team year 1 (#3 in experience per kenpom) and had to rebuild after that. But I mean, they've had fairly steady improvement after that. Kenpom went 37, 153, 107, 61, 49.

But again he's super experienced this year (#9) so they probably expected more.

When you consider what he's accomplished as both an AC and a HC, and that he's only 42 it's not ridiculous at all to think he'll get another shot. There are 351 D1 teams...that's a lot of head coaches and many of them aren't nearly as qualified.

Green Bay is far enough down the list that they gave Pearl a shot after he was black listed.

So, I consider it a nice second chance gig that can be a jumping off point for bigger things.

Does Lowery get credit for Malik?  He definitely gets credit for DJamer and Tre and I think he was the lead on Hurt.  I lay the blame for Orris sole only oscar. It is pretty sad that we have over 40+ years of coaching exp in Indiana and Illinois and the best recruit from that area was because Buzz left and didn't want to take him along.

I have never understood how DePaul is so bad at basketball when they're surrounded by so much talent in Chicago.

So true, DePaul hasn't had a coach that could keep kids home since Ray Meyer in the 80's. Kentucky, Duke or KU get the best ones now.
1997-98 Conf. Champ team @ ILL, Kruger's roster had 14 of 16 in-state kids. That was amazing.
They rehired Leitao. He's the only one to have any kind of success there the last 25 years so maybe it's a good fit :dunno:

I have never understood how DePaul is so bad at basketball when they're surrounded by so much talent in Chicago.

So true, DePaul hasn't had a coach that could keep kids home since Ray Meyer in the 80's. Kentucky, Duke or KU get the best ones now.
1997-98 Conf. Champ team @ ILL, Kruger's roster had 14 of 16 in-state kids. That was amazing.
They rehired Leitao. He's the only one to have any kind of success there the last 25 years so maybe it's a good fit :dunno:

Interesting. Coaching searches are a lot different than they used to be. I imagine most people were scared shitless of DePaul. Leitao probably won't last more than 4 seasons.

there have been rumblings in the NBA that the Cs have been more aggressive in adding pieces instead of just rough ridin' around and collecting assets like the 76ers because Stevens told them he doesn't want to keep losing and will go back to college.  It took a remarkable confluence of events with the 2 superstars in Ray Allen and Garnett that don't really care about going out for Boston to build a championship team.  I bet Stevens is back in college in less than 2 years.

I agree Brad is good but if Boston gets stuck in the same rebuild cycle they have been for 20+ years (with only the Big 3 run and the Pierce/Antoine ECF miracle run year as the exceptions) I don't see Brad choosing to stay in the NBA for what will likely be a 2nd tier job at best (current Trailblazers type job) instead of the 1st tier jobs waiting for him in cbb.

If you're a NBA coach there is no college job better than any NBA job. NBA jobs don't have tiers like college jobs do. Either you're good or you're not. Of the three jobs that would be considered blue bloods if they were tiered like college jobs; two of them are complete disasters right now and one is the job Stevens has now battling for the last playoff spot.

there are absolutely tiers for NBA jobs.  The big market teams in great cities to live in will always have a draw elite free agents over Boston, Minn, Utah, Portland, OKC, etc.  If Boston fails to draft or sign an elite player like it did after pierce and before the big 3 could you blame Stevens for going to a place like UNC or Duke where he is in the home of any kid he wants?  Even the great football school jobs (Fla, Texas, tOSU) have built in advantages that make competing for titles much easier than even a pretty good NBA job like Portland.

Well, I know F'ite/TCfS Nation loves them some Rick Barnes, and hey, I kind of like Rick myself  (I mean I still love the guy from when he was at Clemson and decided he wasn't going to homered in the Dean Dome anymore and pretty much met Dean Smith at half court).   There was something that just wasn't right at Texas these past few years and they did underachieve IMO.
i am not sure if I saw it here or on ShaggyBevo but allegedly Barnes got super into his faith and church in the last few years  :dunno:
Heard that as well.

Yeah there's talk within the Texas AD that this has led to his slippage because his priorities changed. Because of this they thought/hoped that he was just going to go home and quit at the end of the season. Guess not.

His wife had cancer which I think caused a lot of reflection on making meaning out of life.  After Dodds left, I think the "it being time to move on" was absolutely a two-way street between the people at UT (new AD, boosters) and Barnes.  Dodds got along with the old boy coaches and one by one they are leaving.  I doubt Augie has much time there anyway, but Patterson probably doesn't care nearly as much about baseball.

The way in which Patterson went about it was incredibly cowardly as well.  Good for Barnes.

Smart

His style would be more fun, and would be very good with Texas-sized recruits, but his shine has worn a bit for me. He's been in a much tougher conference the last few years tho.

Why has the shine worn off, they're still winning?

It's because he hasn't made any final fours since that one and it's how people measure success. It's wrong, but it's what happens.

He's never finished first in any of the dogshit conferences he's been in.

The A-10 isn't dogshit and they likely win it this year if they don't lose Weber.

Not winning the A-10 or the Colonial once in six years is not impressive.

other than his DITRing he did win a pretty decent recruiting battle for Early.   I would love to know where he finds his unlimited supply of tough 6-7 posts that are very effective vs P5 bigs in the tournament.

Absolutely. The sustained success shows their recruits are contributing very soon, and they aren't having good seasons just by having a very experienced team. I mean Marshall started two sophomores for an undefeated regular season, of course he can recruit.

My general point is that all too often mid-major coaches have great seasons because they luck into an experienced team - this isn't the case with Smart and Marshall.

Kinda of lucked in to Fred Van Vleet, developed so much after he signed. Some smelly bigger schools were push him to go to prep school to get a chance to recruit him late. He also landed the Oregon transfer as a walk-on. That was big.

Marshall computers number plus his limited resources compared to Smart make him look far better. Marshall has been really good with his bigs. That will transfer anywhere.

Landry Shamet was a big get for him. Recognizing Van Vleet was somewhat lucky, similar to us with Foster. But really, at any level, it's good recruiting when you target a recruit that does better than most expected.

Didn't realize. Very odd. I remember him from being very good at Manhattan in my youth. St.John's is such a weird story. Remember Felipe Lopez on the cover of SI with those funky looking city-skyline uniforms, Wth? It was a top-tier job for a long time after Carnesecca too. It still gets a lot of attention.

Its possible (likely) that Boone/OSU put out feelers for who they wanted (Bill) and when those came back negative the best choice was keeping Ford around. Once Boone announced his support it was pretty much done.

St. John's and DePaul both had unsustainable success during the Carnesecca and Ray Meyer eras. They were lucky enough to have top notch coaches at reasonable cost, something that would never happen today. The Garden, when no one is in attendance, is not all that compelling of a place to play compared to a packed Rupp, Allen Fieldhouse, Cameron, etc. I'm not even sure the Garden means a damn thing to 18 year old kids these days anyways. Saint Johns got lucky when a local boy decided to stay home (Mullin). DePaul was only good in the post Ray Meyer era when a few local kids (Q. Richardson, B. Simmons, L. Williams) decided to stay home. This is also unsustainable considering the top players in these cities will be courted by schools with much better programs, facilities, etc. They're schools in major league cities where no one gives a damn about them for the most part. Yes, they are in locations where good basketball talent resides, but the best players in those cities are leaving when Kentucky, Duke, KU, etc. come calling. What's left is not as great as people might presume (does the name Jevon Thomas ring a bell?). In the end, DePaul and Saint Johns are harder to win at then people tend to believe.

From reading the VCU board they believe Marshall sets a good example.  I highly doubt he becomes the norm and he may yet move when a job he actually wants comes open. I get the impression VCU thinks 2M+ keeps the longhorn away and I personally hope they are right.  It's a little embarrassing WSU has a higher commitment to winning than us IMO.

the thing is we're still a ways from NBA jobs opening up
Orlando has been open for awhile, the Chicago thing as well

Donovan did just sign a 1 year extension yesterday fwiw but his kid that was on the team this year is a Sr  :confused:

Denver also has a coaching vacancy right now. The regular season ends in 2 weeks, so not that far away.

Kind of a strange situation. Jans was Marshall's top assistant at WSU before taking the BG job last year. BG administration is citing "public misconduct" as the reason.

Yeah, it must have been pretty bad, they had their best season since 2002 this year.

He has really struggled since the 1st round of the '07 playoffs. Never really recovered from that loss to GS.

Brooks needed to go and they wouldn't be able to make a change next year with KD in free agency and a staunch defender of Brooks.  OKC has been successful but never actually close to winning a title.  Self, Ollie, and Mark Jackson could get a long look.  Ollie gave a non-denial denial already.

This. It's more likely that Snyder says a late goodbye and puts KSU in a position to probably give Sean a one year interim gig, kind of like what Bo Ryan did at Wisconsin this year to give his asst. a shot. oscar is back! Embrace him! Love him! Put up with him!

I'd like for one of these to happen:

1) Miami wins it all, Larranaga decides to go out on top, Frank gets that job and SCAR brings back Brad who finishes their turnaround.

2) Brad goes to OSU or TCU and when they play in the fOOD next year, it's the only game with over 10K fans and the majority are actively rooting for Brad's team.

I hope he goes to Oklahoma State, because I think he'll have more success there than at TCU.  However, as long as he is in the conference and serves as a constant reminder to Kansas State fans, I'll be happy.

Post by: MakeItRain on March 19, 2016, 10:20:51 AM
The current edition of the eye on in college basketball indirectly offers two glances of light for us not losing our shot at Brad
1. They talked about two very recent cases of a power 5 AD firing a coach after they secured their target; Stan Heath at Arkansas and Rick Ray at Mississippi State. If I remember correctly Ray was fired after the final four.
2. The juicier news is that apparently TCU and OSU are about to go on a bidding war for Buzz Williams, who if this news is out there his people are clearly floating the possibility. It's also possible that Brad is OSU's third choice behind the UALR coach, the Oklahoma schools have a fairly extensive history of looking to Arkansas for coaches.

I hadn't really thought about it until I heard this but right now St. Louis is the second best opening right now. The best case scenario for us is for Buzz to get the OSU job, I think that is the only job currently open that we can't get Brad from next year or in 2018. If oscar doesn't get fired, ideally Currie leaves this summer then oscar gets gassed next. With a new AD oscar could get fired next year even if he makes the tournament and doesn't win a game while there.

Here's the podcast info, the coaching stuff is 21:40-34:00

Quote
Gary Parrish, Chip Patterson and Sam Vecenie use this episode of the Eye on College Basketball podcast to discuss Providence's win over USC, UALR's win over Purdue, the terrible tone some reporter used to ask Baylor's Taurean Prince a stupid question, and the coaching carousel (and how Stephen F. Austin's Brad Underwood might fit into). Beyond that, they discussed the way the committee seeds teams. And they previewed Kentucky-Indiana, of course.

Post by: Panjandrum on March 19, 2016, 10:56:28 AM
I think the only way we realistically get rid of oscar in the next 2 years, regardless of whether or not this is a tournament team, is if a collection of donors at the Ice/Vanier/Edgerley level went to Currie and said that all of the money fueling Currie's building projects is frozen until they remove Weber and replace him with Underwood.  And it will specifically need to be Underwood because Currie can easily dismiss Steve Henson, or some non-affiliated coach like Tad Boyle, because oscar will always be "right there" and "this close" to turning that corner again.  Brad's success, specifically, and very public affections towards Kansas State, and the fact that he was here and wanting the job four years ago, is a huge black eye on Currie's tenure.

It's going to take that level of donor effort, in my opinion, to remove Weber while we still have a shot at Brad.  I think it's highly likely we'll see some form of improvement with increased experience and physical maturity.  So we're going to be an NCAA bubble team for the next 2-3 years.

And while I don't think Currie will screw around with football, due to how it's the engine that fuels all of his goals, I think his ego will get the best of him in basketball because it's the one area where he's heavily come under fire.  The only way you'll overcome what I believe will be an irrational desire to stick with Weber, is for those folks that give him millions to say enough is enough.

You can't possibly think that, you're smarter than that. When most people post that it's because they're trolling. If oscar has another season like this one next year, he's obviously going to get fired. We can't have what OSU has had throughout the Ford era. We cannot afford to be playing conference games in front of 4000 people.

I'll bet every dollar I have that two years from today either Weber or Currie will be gone, odds are heavily in my favor.

A Texas Tech type of season isn't a slight improvement. They comfortably made the tournament even after losing to one of the five worst Big 12 teams ever, we didn't even make the NIT. A Tech type season is a slight improvement if you believe the oscar 5 possession talking point. This season was very similar to Wooly's last season, Huggs had a huge improvement and made the NIT. We will see ultimately but I don't think that 8-10 in the conference will get you in the tournament next year. The conference is obviously losing a ton of talent, I am not sure yet if the conference RPI and kenpom the last couple of years is more attributable to the talent in it or because of the round robin.

Another thing to consider is  Fan is right that Currie isn't stupid, which is why he wouldn't fire a coach showing any improvement in consecutive seasons after letting him blow up the roster and rebuild.

I agree with this.

I think the point about Tech is basicallybeing a bubble team, though to be fair Tech did go on a nice run to put themselves clearly on the right side of the bubble. Probably a more realistic comparison would be a Vandy or Michigan type season and be one of the last 4 teams in the field.

You're making assumptions about Currie's perception to fit your own narrative. We have no idea how this season is perceived by oscar's bosses. There is simply no way the administration has their fingers stuck in their ears. The grumbling has gone far beyond a couple dozen of annoying goEMAW posters.

I'm assuming Currie doesn't care about how the basketball team performs as long as there is enough revenue and no NCAA headaches. The perception I'm referring to is that of the fans buying tickets. I think a lot of that grumbling goes away if next we have a bubble team next year. If fans think we're improving and therefore buying tickets, Weber is indefinitely safe.

The only way that "many" saw this year as improvement was if "many" are oscar Weber fans and make excuses. Nobody with an objective eye can see a far worse conference record as an improvement, especially with THIS Big 12. Season ticket sales will show it.

You can't possibly think that, you're smarter than that. When most people post that it's because they're trolling. If oscar has another season like this one next year, he's obviously going to get fired. We can't have what OSU has had throughout the Ford era. We cannot afford to be playing conference games in front of 4000 people.

I'll bet every dollar I have that two years from today either Weber or Currie will be gone, odds are heavily in my favor.

I agree. Currie may be stubborn because this is his hire, but he's not that stupid.

I've said, many times, that Currie is first and foremost a CFO.  His gift, and what's gotten him the vast majority of his goodwill here is how well he handles the department, financially.

I went and looked at the available Equity in Athletics reports that are out on the KSU site.  We are consistently running a profit of about $2.2-2.6 million the majority of years, even going back to Frank.  I'm not sure what made Frank's last year so much different (maybe BTF funds getting put into this number...), but regardless of how we monkey with the prices, the margin is roughly the same.

2014-2015: ~$2.36 million
2013-2014: ~$2.65 million
2012-2013: ~$2.22 million
2011-2012: ~$4.76 million
2010-2011: ~$2.59 million

It's been two years since oscar has been extended, so he has three years left on his deal. The last copy of the contract that I saw said we had to pay him $2.5 million to terminate his deal, or if the sum total of his remaining contract is less, that's what we owe.  Since he'll make around $2.2 million there at the end of his deal, we're out $2+ million, regardless. 

Considering that the margins have mostly been static, even going back to Pullen's last year, to make sense, financially, we'd have to see a $500k per year increase in margin for five years before it made financial sense to get rid of oscar.  And, historically, we just haven't seen that kind of positive YOY growth outside that one year, which is kind of an anomaly.

This is why Currie can stubbornly hold onto him, especially if we're "right there".  It will be enough to keep the fans buying tickets at the point where he can realistically sit behind the financial justification.  In fact, even if a number of donors want to come to him and complain, he can just say that the $2.5 million is a big set back to the East Side renovations, or a redesign of the Bramlage concourse, etc.

Now, as I said, if the big donors that are writing those multi-million dollar checks get together and say THAT pool of funds is going to get impacted if he doesn't make a move on oscar, he will have to move.  But historically, we've found ways to have a consistent profit margin in basketball, and manipulating ticket prices to inflate attendance will allow Currie to stand behind his coach as long as he keeps expenses in check.

if they sell 9k tickets next year instead of 11k, that's $2 million plus.  kstaters might surprise me, but i'd expect underwood driven tickets sales alone would contribute enough revenue to offset weber's buyout.

I agree with this, but I think a lot of us are projecting what we want to happen (which is also logical), and I agree with MC that Currie's main goal in basketball is to have static revenue with limited to no NCAA infractions.  oscar provides these things.

I believe Currie looks at football in a vacuum and everything else is on the periphery.  For basketball and non-revenue sports, he wants them to win enough to either make X amount of dollars or only lose Y amount of dollars, and he doesn't want them to put the rest of his department in jeopardy.

Underwood pressure will have to come from the big money.  Average KSU fans, from the comments of pockets that I've seen on Facebook, Twitter, etc., are fine with oscar because they believe we're right on the doorstep.  And I agree with others that we're likely to see a Texas Tech like year next year, and that's going to give Currie the justification to push forward because that same 10-11k will renew their season tickets to keep our margins in that $2.2-$2.6 million range.

Either the conference RPI will suck next year and we won't get in because of it, or the conference will be good and we won't get in because we win very few conference games again. The talent we have coming in vs. what we're replacing is not a big enough boost to overcome either of those things. We are losing the only guy on our team that could drive the lane, and he also happened to be our leading scorer. Probably slight improvement from some guys, but Budke is going to be playing significant minutes on this team again next year, because no way that both of those big men from last year (Williams and Maurice) will be contributors on this team, maybe neither of them will be. We just weren't nearly as close as oscar told everyone that we were. Our RPI was 90th, seriously doubt it will jump over 50 spots next year. Guess I could be wrong, but I'm not.

Incomplete picture though. I'd like to see what revenues and expenditures look like, it's completely possible that the athletic department has a mandate that the basketball program remain at a certain profit margin, that steady profit sure makes it seem that way.

I agree, but I am not an incredible dumbass like Currie. It isn't like Brad couldn't come in an win with this "nucleus". But Weber will get next year (and the year after at a minimum) and Brad will leave SFA for OSU or somewhere else and that will be that.

Curtis will not fire oscar until he absolutely has to. And our stupid ass fan base [and major donors] won't demand that until it is too late.

I can try to pull that later tonight, but if the mandate is that we hit "plan" every year, and we can do that with oscar, we'll make a move in two years when we have one year left on his deal and there's no extension in sight. 

I will concede that Currie isn't stupid enough to have a lame duck coach, and it mimimizes the buyout as much as possible.  It also takes this class of Freshmen through their junior year, and if they've stuck around, they're more likely to stay for the new guy as Seniors to bridge the transition.  If they have two years left to play, it probably increases the likelihood that they'd leave.

Two years from now makes the most financial sense with the greatest opportunity to maintain a full roster for the new coach.

Again, I'm not advocating this.  Two years of Weber makes me want to vomit, but if I'm Currie, and my scoreboard is financial, not literal, this is where my head is at.

Another thing to consider is  Fan is right that Currie isn't stupid, which is why he wouldn't fire a coach showing any improvement in consecutive seasons after letting him blow up the roster and rebuild.

This team did not show any improvement from last season.
It was perceived as improvement by many. Plus a better overall record and NIT bubble.

There is no such thing as the NIT bubble. It is full of teams that ended up on the wrong side of the NCAA tournament bubble and teams who won their crappy conference in the regular season but blew it in the conference tournament. Nobody who gets into the NIT is happy to be there.

Another thing to consider is  Fan is right that Currie isn't stupid, which is why he wouldn't fire a coach showing any improvement in consecutive seasons after letting him blow up the roster and rebuild.

This team did not show any improvement from last season.
It was perceived as improvement by many. Plus a better overall record and NIT bubble.

There is no such thing as the NIT bubble. It is full of teams that ended up on the wrong side of the NCAA tournament bubble and teams who won their crappy conference in the regular season but blew it in the conference tournament. Nobody who gets into the NIT is happy to be there.

i cannot imagine that they will sell more tickets than this year.  the decline may not be as great as i'd expect, but it is unfathomable that there is an increase.
Why would you expect a decline? I can understand why you might have expected one before this season or after Angel left, but not from this season to next.

People defend oscar because they feel like people who don't like oscar are Frankites. I think oscar's support is much more the inability to say that they were wrong about Frank. This team was rough ridin' terrible to watch this year. Even folks who say they've got oscar's back will decide they've got better crap to do than watch oscar lick his lips for two hours. I just don't think there's a lot of gungho oscar fans out there. Attendance won't go down a ton, but it will go down noticeably.

This is why we never had a chance to get in. There is no better test than asking yourself if your team would be happy with an NIT bid. If the answer is "yes" then they aren't getting in. If it's "no" then they are most likely NIT-bound because if they were going to the NCAA you wouldn't be worried enough to ponder the NIT.

yeah, I think we have reached the bottom on attendance.  OkState is a fan base more accustomed to winning after 15 years of Eddie and we don't have an elite NBA team in KC.  It will take a Ohfer or close to it for us to get back to 4k for a conference home game.

oscar just needs to win 3 more conference gsmes next year to assure he'll be back for at least two more.   

Honestly all that really needs to happen is a compelling excuse and he's fine.  KSU fans and or AD  have shown themselves more than willing to tolerate mediocre basketball.

I don't think oscar will win 8 conference games next year. Counting on two dudes who had season ending injuries (one of whom never played a single minute) and a guy who is still not eligible yet, plus two projects and a backup for Westicles somehow doesn't add up to 8 wins for me, especially when you take away our starting center and leading scorer from last year.

yeah, I guess I'm saying many KSU fans who considered 14-15 to be a poor year (bad attitudes and NBA dreams, stoners) are likely to not consider 15-16 to be a poor year (better than expected, kansan on all freshman team, bad injury luck). So the cumulative poor season buildup does not apply.

I think the playing up of tuck talking points is overplayed. It's very heavy handed to assume people will give oscar credit for Wade when Wade's people have been very vocal with their issues with oscar and the program.

At some point mocking and trolling became legitimate coping mechanisms for people on this site. There are faint signs of support for this coach right now. The thought that only we know what's best for the program and everyone else are blind lemmings is dead.

Yep, which is why attendance will decline. A confluence of disinterest and apathetic feelings toward oscar. A milkshake that the majority is pretty 'meh' on, and that a passionate minority hates, will indeed not bring many boys to the yard.

Have you seen the posts here about facebook comments on KSU AD posts? Or seen the paid attendance figures in conference play?

Also, columns like this are out there (if you've seen anyone in the media suggest he be fired, please let me know):

Yes, it's all lukewarm, but no one thinks he should be fired besides a few optimistic goEMAW'ers. Again, if you show me a column or group of folks in favor of firing oscar, please let me know.

Feels like people are talking past each other here. Mich didn't say that oscar had strong support, and MiR didn't say that your average tuck wants oscar canned. Sounds like you both agree on what the general attitude of the fanbase is, but disagree on what conditions are necessary for lower attendance and/or coaching dismissal.

Post by: Panjandrum on March 19, 2016, 05:29:10 PM
At best, based on the same kind of anecdotal evidence that MC has linked, I'd say we are 50/50 on removing oscar next year based on fan expectations.

A huge portion of this fan base sees the NIT as a good year because we got locked out for the better part of 15 years. And a big portion of tuck/casual fans have it in their head that you can't win unless you cheat or pay players. And that goes against the moral pedestal that a huge number of our fans want to stand on.

I'm honestly not trolling. I'm very, very pessimistic towards our aggregate fan base. Sure, a number of the younger fans are done with oscar and out for blood. But a lot of older, rural, nostalgic folks get off on the fact that a white bread, boring, positive guy that recruits Claws and plays Hot Horndogs is running the show. If anything, these folks can go to church on Sunday, or work on Monday, and throw a bunch of morally superior crap at KU fans.

I think the divide here is that some think we have an evolved fan base, and that's probably true for younger folks and recent alumni. But for folks over 50, and our t-shirt fans, their definition of success is more gray and tied to strange, subjective moral victories. And oscar fits that mold.

For example, my neighbor is a fifty-something baseball alumni. He interacts with Currie via the Diamond Cats. I criticized Currie for oscar, and he quickly responded that he cares about facilities and what Currie has done on that front. He's not concerned so much with oscar. And he donates a decent amount of money.

So, again, this is where we are at. It's gotta come from the big donors, and I think most of them are so dug in with Currie that oscar gets a pass as long as the cranes are still parked on campus.

K-State returns a good bit of production. Its reasonable to expect several of those guys to improve. We have a 4 star coming in and 2 bigs that have been around the program for a year.

That's where thinking 8 wins isn't ridiculous barring defections or injuries next year.

This is very depressing.  Pan's posts have illuminated the obvious, which I should have already been keenly aware of but was sort of in denial....and that is that Currie gives no fucks about "winning" and is here to run a successful business.  It makes good financial sense to keep oscar, because JUST ENOUGH of our fan base will tolerate oscar.

Kansas State fans are getting exactly what they are asking for.

This is so disheartening, because I cannot support K-State basketball as long as oscar is the coach.  I have zero respect for him.  None.

It makes good financial sense to keep oscar, because JUST ENOUGH of our fan base will tolerate oscar.

he didn't demonstrate that at all.  weber's buyout is reasonable, and even if you assume no ticket sales decline (which is highly improbable), there is plenty of room to increase ticket sales with a more popular coach.

Does your plan have risk? Because keeping oscar has zero risk.  Have you met a goPowercat KSU fan before?  Zero risk.

Rooting against the Cats is a good way to still be engaged with the team you've traditionally cheered for, without having to feel like a sadist for inviting more of this shitty basketball upon yourself. I've found it effective in dealing with the cognitive dissonance that has come with oscar being our coach.

the only risk with keeping weber is that you may not get brad.  and that, to me, isn't a risk Currie gives a crap about because he believes he can find another coach should oscar suck next year.  this is the man that let the best basketball coach we had in like 15-20yrs walk.  we were making money (relatively speaking).  and he let him go.  you think he's going to blink at giving oscar another year? 

Currie hired this eff head after getting fired for basically being the coach he is now.

Currie was pretty cold blooded about Deb.  He was very cold blooded about Leti and Angel.  He was certainly methodical and cold blooded on getting rid of Frank.  He wants to win, he just will not tolerate NCAA issues (self-preservation? anti-Frank?)  I think we all agree that the oscar hire was a disaster that we all saw coming and Currie did not.  Brad would've been a much better hire in retrospect, but although he had support at the time and would've been less controversial among K-Staters, he was also more of a risk.

I am saying that I am going to wait until after the Final Four to extinguish all hope on the life of K-State hoops.  For now, I take succor in the words of John Fogerty.

Deb was making 600K/yr.  Mittie came in and made 375K/yr (w/ 25K escalations each year).  I don't know what we had to pay her when she left, but John made money on firing Deb.  Or it was close to a neutral proposition.

Couple things...
He wasn't coldblooded about Angel -- the kid wanted to transfer, so he transferred.
He didn't get rid of Frank.
At the time oscar was hired, Brad had never been a major college head coach. At the time most of the folks on here were campaigning for Doug Gottlieb, not Brad. A bit revisionist history to say Currie should have seen Brad's potential at the time, when most K-State fans didn't either.

The Frank-Currie relationship was a complete lol-fest and it is completely unnecessary to go blow-by-blow on how Currie mishandled it.  I am not excusing Frank's role, but Currie was certainly the number one reason Frank left.

I attempted to make clear that Brad was not the consensus pick, but everyone would've rallied around it.  It had the benefit of following the model of Frank Martin, which was a successful hire by almost any measure and internal assistant hires from successful programs are very normal.

What is slightly better?  Would having a Texas Tech type season be enough to keep him?  That kinda what I am envisioning we will be next year and would be my worst nightmare.  I either want him to suck or totally blow our minds and have us in the top 4 of the big 12 and get a 4 seed.

This is where I'm at. A Texas Tech type season would be the worst. Unfortunately, it seems like the most likely scenario.

A Texas Tech season would give us an 8 seed in the tourney, and would give us a five year stretch of 3 NCAAs in 5 years with a conference title.

Over any 5 year period:
1. what is your definition of "success" for K-State basketball
2. what do believe is john currie's definition of "success" for K-State basketball
3. does style matter (personality of coach, likability, having a brand etc) more than the results

Over a 5 year period I want 4 NCAAs 1 NIT no losing season, 2 seasons in the top 3 in the big 12 one run to a Sweet 16 or better, never a losing season.

Currie's definition for success is no scandal and post season 3 out of 5 years.

Yes having a brand and a non loser personality matters.

1. Minimum: Reason for hope for a sweet 16 every few years.  A Tech like season next year doesn't do it.  Also, stop with including "with a conference title".  No reasonable KSU fans believe oscar can recreate the situation he walked into his first year.
2. Good enough so the revenue isn't so low that he doesn't have to fire oscar before he moves on.
3. You're trying to make this a style thing.  I don't consider excuse making a style attribute.  Continual excuse making and begging for NITs, like oscar did, is a factor.  It leads to the no hope feeling in point 1.

He wasn't coldblooded about Angel -- the kid wanted to transfer, so he transferred.
He didn't get rid of Frank.
At the time oscar was hired, Brad had never been a major college head coach. At the time most of the folks on here were campaigning for Doug Gottlieb, not Brad. A bit revisionist history to say Currie should have seen Brad's potential at the time, when most K-State fans didn't either.

I'm one of your biggest supporters here, but your 2 about Frank is a bold face lie and makes people here really question you.  And yeah some wanted Doug, I believe, after it was clear ADJC was burning down the entire coaching staff and starting new.  Most wanted Doug for the fun of it being outside the box.  Instead we got a coach worse than Romeo Crennel.

What is slightly better?  Would having a Texas Tech type season be enough to keep him?  That kinda what I am envisioning we will be next year and would be my worst nightmare.  I either want him to suck or totally blow our minds and have us in the top 4 of the big 12 and get a 4 seed.

This is where I'm at. A Texas Tech type season would be the worst. Unfortunately, it seems like the most likely scenario.


A Texas Tech season would give us an 8 seed in the tourney, and would give us a five year stretch of 3 NCAAs in 5 years with a conference title.

Over any 5 year period:
1. what is your definition of "success" for K-State basketball
2. what do believe is john currie's definition of "success" for K-State basketball
3. does style matter (personality of coach, likability, having a brand etc) more than the results

being a complete dipshit who cannot string a coherent sentence together. having no respect from your players bc you sound and act like said dipshit. you can spin it however you want, cc, but this was a terrible hire of a "nice", but incompetent coach.

1.  I want to be in the NCAA tournament every year.  When we make the NCAA tournament we should at least play to our seed 3 out of every 4 years.  But, in the event we are not in the NCAA I want to make the NIT.  Further, the reason we didn't make it is because we were in some type of transition because we had some really good / great players from the previous year graduate and now we are building back up to that level.  We would have struggled early on, but by the end of the year we could really see things coming together and and NIT berth would set the stage for the next year to be something exciting.  We should also be able to win a game or two.

2.  Revenue stays at whatever level he deems appropriate.  Recruit outstanding student athletes and other non quantifiable measures.

3.  Winning makes up for any shortcoming with style, likability, etc.  Doesn't matter to me if we are winning.  If we are winning, those things will take care of themselves.

I agree, if Weber was fired tomorrow, I don't think there would be much explanation needed from Currie, and the national perception would be that it was justified -- the reaction to Stanford's coach firing proves that.

I think if you can make a clear upgrade at a coaching position you almost always should do it.  There is almost no loyalty in the business and loyalty can have its downsides even when it is mutual and merited.  Currie has shown has tasted blood before, let's see if he still has the killer instinct.

Leti was wrong, either accidentally or intentionally.

No one else, including Angel himself, has given any indication that Angel was not able to transfer when he wanted.

I appreciate your response here.  It is almost impossible to know whether angel was offered a deal.  What we do know is how Currie behaved during the Leti saga, and in the Curtis Kelly saga.  Both indicate that Currie is willing to use the full extent of the the procedural power available to him when he wants something.

Agree 100% that they are both responsible.  They are both to blame for tearing down the program for nothing more than petty bullshit building up over time.  Yeah Jam Sam was the final straw under the bus, but that relationship was sour because of Currie poisoning the well. You can't blame Frank for looking elsewhere when you have bitter water to drink and now you have an AD actively undermining your program, failing to back your student athletes, and misrepresenting the rules all in a quest to make himself look clean.

GPC hates Weber?

Yep. 

I didn't believe it when Sys first told me that, but I went over there and read thread after thread confirming just that.  It's really impressive.  They despise Weber.  The ONLY thing they seem divided on is how much to blame Currie.  50-50 on whether Currie should be out as well, it would seem.  Interesting for sure.

It amazes me that ADs fire coaches and than hire retread coaches who have proven to be failures at a P5 level.  I've still yet to hear one example of a coach fired for being a loser at a P5 school who went on to success somewhere (P5) else. You have to take the risk on a lower level coach or assistant with no track record over a loser like Weber.

D. Scott's commentary on Twitter has to be a factor in that.  He's really passive aggressive about oscar.

A work friend of mine who frequents GPC tells me the same things after he texts me curse word laden epithets about oscar after each loss.

If we hate Weber, and they hate Weber, who the eff is attending these home games? I think this calls for an investigation.

Kansas State fans still attend games because they are loyal.  They hate oscar Weber, but still attend....this makes them very uncomfortable, as it would anyone.  This can only last so long before they start to hate the person that they perceive as being responsible for this uncomfortable situation. 

Take your guesses about what they'll do with that blame....and where/how that blame will rear it's head when it's time to pick a football coach.   :users:

A minority of K-State fans have never forgiven Currie for his handling of Martin, who won games but did so in a manner that made Currie uncomfortable. He regularly complained to Martin about his sideline demeanor, his yelling at players, and often much more trivial matters. Five years ago, Martin told me Currie informed him that one of Martin’s assistant coaches “stood up” too often during games. That coach was Brad Underwood.

Currie was heavily involved in hiring a successful low major coach to revitalize a P5 school's basketball before.

I'm sure he hasn't forgotten.

Pearl went from Milwaukee to Tennessee and was wildly successful. Currie has gotten a ton of credit for being instrumental in the hire as an associate AD.

This one makes a lot more sense than that one.

He just has to admit he made a mistake.

Not sure about that. TCU just upgraded their facilities and Dixon needed a reset. The only time Lon needed a reset was after he failed with the Hawks and I'm not sure how well received he would have been at that point. When UNLV hired him they were a long away from Tark the Shark, Lon was five coaches removed from their glory days.

I wouldn't put him anywhere near weberville, he had a legit great run with his own guys in year 5 when they went to the elite 8 with Blair, Young, Fields, etc.   He is more likely what Frank would of turned out to be had he stayed.

I'll be interested in what the eye on college basketball guys say about this hire because a month ago they said a coach with options should never take a job that is traditionally one of the worst jobs in any conference. Dixon is thought of as a good coach and TCU is clearly the worst job in the conference and one of the worst in the power five. He's got a ton of work but because he's an alum and they have no idea what success looks like he should get a ton of time.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dixon isn't successful. It's really hard to turn around a program and he inherited a successful program and turned it into Weberville.
I wouldn't put him anywhere near weberville, he had a legit great run with his own guys in year 5 when they went to the elite 8 with Blair, Young, Fields, etc.   He is more likely what Frank would of turned out to be had he stayed.

His last five seasons have been similar to what oscar's five seasons here will look like. You are correct he did much better earlier though.

He won a CBI title!

2011–12   Pittsburgh   22–17   5–13   T–13th   CBI Champions
2012–13   Pittsburgh   24–9   12–6   4th   NCAA Second Round
2013–14   Pittsburgh   26–10   11–7   5th   NCAA Third Round
2014–15   Pittsburgh   19–15   8–10   T–9th   NIT First Round
2015–16   Pittsburgh   21–12   9–9   T–9th   NCAA First Round

It's like they say there's a fine line between the NIT bubble and a CBI title.

Holder had a press conference over the weekend that seemed like it's only purpose was to throw water on Gottlieb. He came right out and said what his criteria was and it was the old John Currie, needs previous experience, he also mentioned ability to recruit Texas.

They're all on your list because they're all answering your call. We can have a separate conversation about why these coaches are rumored for OSU but they wouldn't be for K-State, but as far as this conversation goes they're all answering the phone.

I think if you make the move this year, you do it with one call to Brad.  If you are making a move in future years, you can likely start the process earlier as it become apparent a change will be made.  I wouldn't call Buzz as his lateral moves would be concerning.  I'd probably call Brad 2nd but wouldn't argue with 3rd.

Pretty far removed from California, although I'm not sure if/how he recruited there at KU, UNC, and UAB. Also I realize that his win total at UAB has improved but to me he just doesn't seem dynamic in any way. Weird was probably the wrong terminology, should have went with underwhelming. I guess that falls in line with what Stanford's hiring practices for these positions seem to be though. It's Stanford and Stanford is amazing, I expect them to make these big splash hires and that's not what they do.

Brian Gregory getting fired is interesting. They were very bad for 4 and a half years, then they turned it around the second half of this season playing the best basketball they have played under him. They beat the hell out of South Carolina earlier this week. He must have had a NCAA or bust edict which is odd for a program that had no post season under that coach.

Was it NIT title or bust? Why play in the thing in the first place, you could have fired him and had another week to look for a coach. Or maybe they just let him coach and were looking behind the scenes anyway.

My mistake here. Pitt's AD is Scott Barnes, who just took over last April. He hired a search firm headed by Todd Turner, former AD at Vandy who hired Stallings to coach there. Turner recommended Stalling to Barnes via his search firm.

I guess be careful of your new AD and the search firm they hire (or don't hire) is the real lesson here.

The UNC/Roy Williams coaching tree isn't that great. The only current head coaches right now that warrant any consideration are King Rice and Floor Burns.

Yeah, most of what he did is now legal.

Kelvin was 1B beside Brad's 1A when I had a silly sliver of hope that a change might come this year. 

The biggest knock on Kelvin is his age, he's 60 now. If he has a good year next year and takes Houston to the NCAAs, someone will go after him though. I'd be happy for it to be us.

This is tough on Tech. Its somewhat late for a change and lots of good candidates are already gone now. I'm sure they thought when they hired him that they were getting a good coach in his early 60s, if he built it back up he would be there to stay. Then he gets them to the tournament in only 3 seasons and leaves because its easier to win at Memphis, even though he's 64.

He's got a grcoat adjace coming next year.

And yeah, UW is getting their Beasley

Did I just fall asleep and wake up in April of 2016? He just had his worst season with a top two draft pick. Two years ago he had three top 60 recruits, not counting the guy who will be a top two pick in three months and has done dick since landing any of these dudes. They're going to get Porter next season, end up with a fourth place finish in the Pac 12, a nine seed, one and done in the tournament then Porter will be gone and UW will still have Romar. YAY :party:


UW wants Romar gone or at least the people I talk to. Porter has four little brothers, one is a junior in a high school and is more of a true post. He is fighting for that fifth star. The Porter gravy train has just started.

Yeah, they've had good recruits lately and sucked, but next year will be the first year of the players that are part of the moapd (mother of all package deals) that they're bigly invested in with both money and effort. 

They gave the unqualified Porter dad an assistant coach job (I think the highest-paying one on their staff).  The whole family moved up, and Brandon Roy was installed as head coach of one of the shittiest high school basketball teams in the city.  All the home-schooled Porter kids signed up to play there, and then other good players transferred, and the team just wrapped up an undefeated state 'ship, with them all saying they're committed to Romar, not UW.  The 2nd oldest kid who is theoretically a "junior" is probably gonna be home-schooled extra so he can go to UW next year w/his older brother.  As mcat pointed out, Romar's got a ridic buyout - especially when you view it as pay this in exchange for losing your grcoata - and I think even the lol assistant coach dad has a contract that would have to get bought out.  And Roy probably has some sort of promise to move up to UW soon.

You can def suspect that this is a poor strategy, but the costs are pretty much sunk at this point, so why not take a shot?

There's some small similarities in the whole thing to us hiring Frank.  It pretty much had to be done for the recruits, and there wasn't some alternative coach out there that would be worth blowing the whole thing up for.  IIRC, we then finished 4th, got an 11 seed, WHIPPED USC'S ASS before bowing out, and then still had Frank.  But in our case, it certainly was worth it as it snowballed into the best KSU basketball in decades.

Local talk Monday was that UW money people would come up w/the money, but only if they had an awesome coach already lined up to come in.  Notwithstanding how that would even work practically, then you'd be looking at buying out the current staff AND paying a shitload to a new elite coach.

Worlds colliding, there was a segment yesterday on all this w/guest Doug Gottlieb, who at about 5 minutes in took a shot at Wichita compared to Seattle.

Yeah, these connections aren't hard to make.

Porter SR is playing the game right though.

Quote
sked about the prospect of his son playing at Mizzou, Porter Sr. said last year, "We’ll see. You know kids, they get enamored with the cute chick at the moment in terms of programs. Some programs that are really making noise right now have his attention."

Porter JR is too.

MIR, you might be entertained by these.  This was the local station that's most down w/UW on Wednesday afternoon as it was all unraveling; first Cuonzo and how that could affect the Porters, then the firing, then Porter officially being at mizzou, and then Romar himself called in and then the AD spoke.  The common tone was that he probably deserved to be fired but holy crap we just paid another $3.5 million to within hours have everything we invested in the past few years go to rough ridin' missouri.

We still have our beachhead in western Kansas although Hutch Juco may give us stiff competition.  Its sad to see us slip below Tigerpooh.  I would say Tech, TCU and Okiewood have passed us.  If oscar stays, he better get some flash meat with his past two recruiting spots.

Oh yeah, Johnny Jones was lol worthy. But their fans and admin are just like 75% of every other SEC school in that they just do not care about the sport whatsoever. Sure, football has their athletic department awash in money, but I doubt ISU would have a problem matching them.

Iowa State is going to be terrible next year, no transfer coming to save their asses. They have nearly nothing coming back, only returning 25% of their minutes and 18% of their scoring. You guys are wrong about the fans, they won't be nearly as patient with basketball, they've been good nearly consistently for 30 years.

Other than the roster if Prohm leaves for LSU it's worth noting that he's lived in the south his entire life. He also is only making $1.5 million, LSU has that in their couch. I don't know if it's gotten any better but remember even under Hoiberg the basketball team had to sleep in a hotel ballroom because the AD wouldn't spring for rooms when they had travel problems in the tournament a couple of years ago.

Florida or Kentucky have won the league the last 8 years. It might be easier, but unseating one of those 2 looks just as difficult unseating the one team in our league for the near future.

Also, 2nd in the SEC hasn't gotten better than a 4 seed in that span. Meanwhile in the Big 12 has had 1/3/4, 1/2/3/4, 2/3/3/3, 2/3, 1/4, 2/2/3 seeds the last 6 seasons.

Just saw that UW hired Syracuse's hciw. Is that not a bit short sighted as he will probably head back when Boeheim leaves? Or possibly risky for him if he flounders at UW?

I know you can't turn down the money. I wouldn't. Just my two thoughts on the matter.

Remember Mushy leaving Texas after Mack decided to stay another year?  If you are perpetually "in waiting" I could see the move.  This seems like it would be a big enough program that he wouldn't necessary bolt back, I would for sure agree if he went mid major.

Post by: catastrophe on March 19, 2017, 12:21:02 PM
It might be a little risky, but still worthwhile.  If Muschamp had been successful at Florida, Texas probably would have made a big push for him when Mack got forced out.  But even if that happened, that means you have a much more attractive program (with more active donors/fan support) for a new head coach to take over.

I think you missed my point. It may be a bit easier to win in the SEC, but no one is really taking advantage of it. Also, "winning" in the SEC doesn't mean as much, if you finish 2nd in the league you are looking at a 4 seed at best. Finish 3rd and maybe you will get a 7. Too much of the league is no good and even with these hotbeds of talent, few coaches can take advantage of it and it continually remain average at best. Of course, perhaps the benefit is most schools don't care and Georgia will keep a guy like Fox for 8 seasons and Ole Miss will keep Kennedy for 11. Simply put, if you aren't going to coach at Kentucky or Florida the current make up of the SEC shows that you will be choosing a mediocre basketball school to be a mediocre coach.

What has Archie done that is so impressive. He has been beneficial with an A10 that has suffered from conference realignment making Dayton one of the better job in the conference if not the best. His kenpom rankings aren't great. They are good but not job exceeding.

That's a fair question and I thought about that a little bit when I looked at his resume. His teams did get steadily better at Dayton and he was league champs/co champs the last 2 years. However, the NCAA success has gone down. He had all 5 NCAA wins (including one in the first 4) 3 and 4 years ago including his Elite 8, both years as 11 seeds. Then the last 2 seasons as 7 seeds he lost in the first round, but those were to pretty good teams in Syracuse and Wichita State. If I'm Indiana I'd rather have Mack from Xavier, but maybe they got information that he wasn't interested.

It also feels like Indiana basketball may be going the way of Nebraska football, but its a much different sport and they shouldn't have the same issues that Nebraska football has in maintaining success at an elite level.

It was a forgone conclusion that Keatts was going to NC State, that deal was done before UNCW got on the plane for the NCAA tourney . . .  after that Archie Miller, Will Wade and Cuonzo Martin sat at the top of the heap that's pretty  meh.

You've got to admit, the pool of decent/good coaches who are candidates to move on really wasn't all that impressive. 

It was a forgone conclusion that Keatts was going to NC State, that deal was done before UNCW got on the plane for the NCAA tourney . . .  after that Archie Miller, Will Wade and Cuonzo Martin sat at the top of the heap that's pretty  meh.

No one thinks that those were the top four coaching candidates. Will Wade and Archie Miller were very clearly not the top targets for those jobs and Mizzou was the only one of these schools that were going to hire Cuonzo.

I'm interested to know if Indiana even called gregggggg or if his sloppy wife was just one piece of baggage too many for them to want to put up with. I thought 3G was a perfect fit for Indiana, he's Bob Knight without the overwhelming desire to choke and punch students.

I don't even consider 3G a target, his whole shtick is to tell his people to float an insane number and everybody passes, as I said earlier, no one wants to make 3G the second highest paid coach in college basketball.   

Again, the pool of those truly looking to move on is pretty meh.

Forbes is much higher on my list than Dooley or Jank - neither has built their current job or really built anything close to the success Forbes has.  Jank isn't as creepy as Dooley but he is good looking in a serial killer way

Come home Bill!

 the worst performance I have seen from a Jayhawk team. The blame is as much the coaches as the players.
I have watched every game this year and this was by far the most pathetic I have seen.
jackson, you didn't show up. Lucas, were you there tonight. Graham, should have played Tyler Self you were that bad, Mason, you are still the #1 payer in the land and gave everything you had.
Self, maybe time to think about moving on. You can't deliver in the big games and thats what you get paid millions to do.
What a horrible finish to a great season. No excuses other than not being prepared

You don't need this crap Bill!

This one is on Coach Self. I read that article where he was, in effect, taking it easy going into the Oregon game. That should NEVER happen in the tournament. Mentally the guys were beaten at the outset of the game. Lack of preparation...

Recruiting is way down with out Brown from a shallow star perspective.

Their four commits all have pretty impressive offer lists, all of them have at least one P5 offer. Also there is no freaking way that you can give the full credit for those previous classes to a 76 year old man, that staff absolutely did the heavy lifting.

What I don't understand about giving Lamont Evans $500,000 is that if he's good next year they're exposing themselves to falling victim, again, to the same thing that happened with Brad.

It seems to me that they don't anticipate this though, it seems like they know they will suck, so if they are going to have to rebuild the roster then why not do it on the cheap since the fans aren't going to show up anyway. It's just a complete WTF move by Holder.

Nah, I a dumbass. Mike Boynton is so anonymous that I temporarily forgot he was a head coach.

Oh man, this is going to start a firestorm of "Mitch Richmond to K-State" rumors amongst the tucks.

I didn't realize Mitch is on staff with Mullins at St John's.

it would be the extremely watered down version of why someone may want BV over JL in football. We know what Jank is as a head coach, we know his ceilings as a head coach, but Mitch is still an unknown and the unknown possibility of a higher ceiling is more attractive to some.

Going to be a weird moment when GTown has to fire Ewing.

On the oscar/Jank conversation...oscar does have more of a track record. I'm curious to see what the changes in Columbia do to oscar's ability to pull Saint Louis kids. If he starts losing out there, I'm not sure how he replaces it, like what would be the next, natural location with equivalent talent that oscar could realistically tap into?

Well, there actually is a personal reason why he would be unlikely to be hired at KState as long as Jackie Hartman is still so actively involved at KState.

I said he needs to be good in 2017-18, as well, before he would be a viable candidate though. If you think that you can't say that you'd rather have oscar. You nor hardly anyone else would buy in to oscar if we had a good 2017-18.

Also the "more bad than good" on his resume is absurd. He was good at Illinois State, stop trying to strip the context.

during: 58, 60, 89, 237, 93
after: 64, 148, 62, 120, 49

i'd give him credit for better consistency, except for that nasty 237.  he was better than previous, but the upward trend was clearly in place before he arrived.  they've arguably been better since his departure.

the valley was a frequent multibid league and isu never made the tournament.  jank's time there wasn't horrible, it also wasn't the sort of record likely to get a coach a high major job.

I've never wished oscar had made a deeper run in the tourney last season than now. Unfortunately, he probably remains unappealing to nearly every Big Ten school.

On Matta, the health is obviously the primary thing going on here, although don't underestimate the hot seat he was on. Two elite sources in the Ohio AAU and MAC coaching scene have suggested for a few years now that Thad had basically been pretty terrible with in-state recruiting. Leaving him to get the talented OH kids with character issues, rather than the cream of the crop. Marc Loving is the recent example of this. From what these guys say at least, Thad never even had a shot with Trey Burke, who was from Columbus, Ohio. Recruiting from schools like Dayton and Xavier have hurt him in state and in the Indianapolis area.

Both are old washouts on the downhill.  Frankly this program has slid so far in the last few years, it is going to take something like the Missouri hire to energize this fan base.  My fear is keeping Oscar for a couple of more years, and us being  Anderson Mizzou bad.  It will be harder to get a good coach to KSU.  Is there any Bill Self seedlings to bring in?

Likely Weber is here until he is 80.  About the only thing that will get action from these cowardly administrators is Weber going perv or breaking the law;  which will not happen as Weber is a great father and citizen.

He doesn't think she'll take it because it takes her farther away from potentially taking over from Pop when he leaves. Four years as a full-time NBA assistant is definitely experienced enough to take a job in the Mountain West.

3.5 seasons, not years, and I completely disagree

her knowledge of the game wouldn’t be the issue, obviously
but being the ceo of a college program would take a lot of knowledge that only comes from being immersed within the college game, something she hasn’t touched for almost 2 decades

sure, hiring smart assistants that she can offload things to would help but no way

Luke Walton was an assistant for 2.5 seasons before he got the highest profile job in the NBA.

There are other current assistants like Jerry Stackhouse, Coby Karl, Corliss Willamson, and Mark Madsen who could absolutely get mid-major jobs if they wanted them, and none of them coached with Pop.

And there's other former players who got jobs with far less experience like Rex Walters and Kevin Ollie.

You don’t need experience to coach in the NBA, they hand out those jobs to people with 0 years of coaching experience.  Rex Walters sucked balls as a college coach,  Ollie is about to get fired.

I definitely didn't bolster any point you made. I'm also not interested in proving or disproving any point either of us have made. The bottom line is that they are interested in her and she may not take the job because she's been led to believe that an NBA job is eminent for her. There also have been several other coaches across all major sports that have been given a shot with a similar resume. Those are facts, there's nothing to prove, I didn't make a statement on how effective she'll be.

Why are Corliss Williamson (head coach at Central Arkansas) and Mark Madsen (assistant at Stanford) on this list?

I had no idea that Big Nasty coached Central Arkansas. Also didn't know that Mad Dog was at Sanford.

Luke Walton was an assistant for 2.5 seasons before he got the highest profile job in the NBA.

none of these examples make what i'm arguing wrong, or you right.  if anything, they bolster my point.  you actually believe it to be a good idea to hire someone with hammon's experience.  odd take, but it's yours.

I definitely didn't bolster any point you made. I'm also not interested in proving or disproving any point either of us have made. The bottom line is that they are interested in her and she may not take the job because she's been led to believe that an NBA job is eminent for her. There also have been several other coaches across all major sports that have been given a shot with a similar resume. Those are facts, there's nothing to prove, I didn't make a statement on how effective she'll be.

good god. 

me: she doesn't have enough experience
you: listed a bunch of people with no experience
 
me: and look at them

:lol:

I was simply illustrating that hiring an NBA assistant with <5 years coaching experience is not without precedent. I'll say it slower for you this time, maybe you'll read it this time, I have no opinion on whether or not she'll be successful. You think she isn't experienced enough to be a good hire? Okay cool, grats on the opinion.

Will she be successful? Who knows? I don't think it matters even a little bit if you're Colorado State. You're going to sell a crap ton of tickets and merch. You'll have more buzz than you could ever imagine and you'll have every game on television. If she's a coaching savant, sweet. If she blows, fire her in three years and you're no worse for wear, where not talking about UNC here.

Penny will have the talent, but can he coach? In the AAC, that haul of guys he has in his AAU program, should get them in the top echelon immediately.

Will Becky Hammon coach Colorado State men's hoops? Spurs brass praises mum trailblazer

The most intriguing, transformational and innovative potential transaction on the college coaching wire has little to do with the drama surrounding possible openings at big-name schools like Connecticut, Georgia and Memphis.

At Colorado State, where veteran coach Larry Eustachy resigned as the basketball coach, there’s been a public openness to – and even clamoring for – an unprecedented coaching hire. Athletic director Joe Parker has been quoted publicly saying that he’d considered hiring San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Becky Hammon as the men’s basketball coach.

She was a three-time All-American at Colorado State, has her jersey retired there and has since emerged as a star assistant coach in the NBA.

“It’s the most frequently asked question I get, and recommended candidate,” Parker told Coloradoan.com. “I’m not closing the door on any thought.”

A Colorado State source told Yahoo Sports that Hammon is considered one of the top candidates by the administration.

And by opening the door to a groundbreaking hire, the possibility looms for Hammon to be the first woman to work as a head Division I men’s basketball coach in history. Perhaps the best way to sum up how qualified Hammon is as a Colorado State candidate is that those who know her best don’t consider the move at all anomalous or unusual.

Hammon declined comment on Tuesday night through a Spurs spokesperson. She’s stayed tight-lipped to reporters around the team as well. But those who’ve seen her quietly establish herself as one of the NBA’s bright young assistant coaches have rushed to endorse her coaching potential.

Spurs general manager R.C. Buford, reached by phone by Yahoo Sports on Monday, lauded Hammon’s work ethic, basketball savvy and “emotional IQ that’s so important to being a successful coach.” Hammon joined the Spurs in 2014 as the first full-time paid female assistant coach on an NBA staff. Since that time, she’s perhaps stood out most by blending in. “She’s established a great presence in our group,” Buford said. “She’s got the respect of our coaches, our players and our organization. She has great insight at two different levels, both in the coaching environment and strategic discussions and she can also take [instruction] to our players and discuss with them.”

Hammon’s playing career includes six WNBA All-Star selections and she is the league’s eighth all-time leading scorer. Her coaching trajectory has ascended precipitously, as she got hired by the Spurs in 2014 and twice coached their summer league team. She led them to a summer league title in 2015. “She had great command of her team and had their respect,” said Celtics assistant Micah Shrewsberry, who coached against her that summer. “They played hard and ran good stuff. They looked like a Spurs group that had been together for a long time, not just two weeks.”

That’s the thing about Hammon. Ask about breaking barriers, and the answers come back about her simply being good at her job. The feeling around the Spurs organization is that Hammon, 40, can coach in the NBA for a long time at the highest levels. Any question about how Hammon is doing isn’t even received by Spurs officials through any prism of gender. She’s blazed a trail through quiet consistency, high intellect and earning respect in the NBA’s most respected organization.

If she got the Colorado State job, it would certainly be a big story. Just like it was when the Spurs hired her as an assistant. Soon, that faded away. “It wasn’t a big deal at the time [we hired her] because she deserved every bit of it,” Buford said. “We laugh about it. She wasn’t hired because we wanted to be trailblazers or she wanted to be one. She was hired because she was the right person to be in our group.

“My belief is that the story would last a short time, then it would be not that she’s a trailblazer, it’s that she’s the right fit.”

Hammon has had a shot to coach college basketball before, as she interviewed for the women’s coaching job at Florida last year. A person familiar with that search came away impressed: “She’s super sharp. She obviously understands basketball and has been successful at every level on the men’s and women’s side. She’s someone who isn’t afraid to be different and blaze her own path.”

She was perceived to be the leader for that job, but ultimately her career compass kept her coaching in the NBA. Would the men’s job at Colorado State have a different allure? It’s difficult to say. The biggest question would be recruiting, as it would be with any coach transitioning from professional basketball to college. “People aren’t raising that question because of gender,” said a veteran athletic director. “It’s because of skill set. Not to say she couldn’t do it, but it’s a fair question to ask.”

Another fair question: Should Hammon should stick in the NBA? She’s ascended through the league’s most lauded franchise. She’s a protégée of a coach, Gregg Popovich, who is regarded as the best in the world. And he’s consistently cast her potential as boundless.

“Becky can do anything she wants,” Popovich told reporters recently when asked about Hammon. “Whatever she wants to do in her future, I think is her choice. She’s got it all.”

Will that head-coaching potential be unfurled at Colorado State soon or in the NBA later? With Hammon, the only variable until her next seamless trailblazing path appears to be time.

Penny's son was class of 17 but went to IMG this year so I am sure he factors in this deal too.  He appears to be a not terribly athletic 2 star 6-4 shooting guard so my guess is this is the only way he plays above low major basketball.

I think this will work for Memphis to at least get back to top half of the AAC - he will get players and has at least coached AAU & HS for years vs the guys like Drexler and Mullins that really were never on the sideline except as players.  If LB really gets engaged they will kick ass

Kidd was a .500 coach who went to the playoffs 3 out of 4 seasons before getting fired this year. Certainly not a disaster.

because being on the wrong side of Mike Decourcy is a bad thing?
oscar is widely known as a joke among his peers and while the discussion around his failure as a coach can be debated, there’s more to his job than what appears in the w/l column

I get all my news from gE so I can say with confidence no one likes oscar Weber.

Seriously though, I talked to someone in the AD’s office who just last year acknowledged oscar was on the hot seat before we made our final run to make it into the tournament. Like him or not, he’s still got a shorter leash here than he would most other programs. OU had a player OTY candidate, UT has a monster lottery pick, and both finished in the bottom half of the conference. Yet it sure seems like more people calling for Weber’s head than Kruger or Smart.

It’s frustrating for everyone to get consistently bounced from the first round of the tournament, but it’s a really shaky basis for letting someone go since so much of it comes down to luck.

Weber misses the tournament the next two years, he’s gone. He fails to get us to the Sweet 16 before 2022, he’s gone. Failing either of those, I think we’re stuck with him. Although I do believe that if both Frank and Underwood continue to be successful outside of KSU, the fans will give oscar an even shorter leash.

Look, I know MIR has a very beautiful wife and family, but part of me wonders if he is secretly in love with oscar, or at least very deep like.  Only way I can explain it. 

MIR, here is the test: Ask yourself this, have you ever watched oscar eating a soft serve cone and secretly thought to yourself (our out loud) “I wish I was that soft serve?”  If you have, you may have a oscar problem. 

That goes for the rest of you as well, not just MIR.

lol @ comparing Kruger's hot seat to oscar

Since 2012, here are the relative Big 12 regular season finishes between KSU and OU.

2012 - KSU: 2, OU: 5
2013 - KSU: 5, OU: 2
2014 - KSU: 8, OU: 3
2015 - KSU: 8, OU: 3
2016 - KSU: 6, OU: 9
2017 - KSU: 4, OU: 8

So on average over those 6 season, KSU finished 5.5, OU finished 5.  Pretty close.  Especially when you consider KSU has been trending up while OU has been trending down recently.

The big difference is obviously tournament success, and no one is going to deny that it goes a long way.  But to my point earlier, it is hard to let a coach go solely because of bad tournament performance unless it is over a very long time span.

If Texas misses the tourney this year, I do think his seat will be the hottest obviously.

First of all, that is a crazy thing to say without even waiting to see how far Texas goes this year.  Second, I don't think it is true even if Texas loses in the first round.

But even assuming you are right, do you think that is a good thing for Texas?  Like I said, let's not forget they ran off Barnes who consistently got them to the tourney before with an occasional deep run.

Unless Smart has some sort of miracle Final Four run this year, I think Texas would be right in moving on if he doesn't make the tournament next season. They expect more than that, as they should.

Definitely worth the offer, although it appears Danny Hurley got a nice offer from U of Pitt yesterday, so maybe Marshall is not in the running. Are Marshall's kids school age? That has to be the only thing keeping him from taking another job? If not, what the hell is he still doing at WSU?

Becky clearly took a pass, what an incredibly uninspiring hire, even for Colorado State
Quote
Report: Niko Medved to Be Hired as Colorado State Basketball Head Coach
ROB GOLDBERG
MARCH 22, 2018
Colorado State appears set to hire Niko Medved as the next head coach of its men's basketball team, per Evan Daniels of 247Sports.

He will replace Larry Eustachy, who resigned in February partway through his sixth season with the Rams following an investigation into his treatment of players.

Medved was the head coach of Drake last season after spending the previous four years with Furman.

While Drake went just 17-17 this season, it had only 14 wins in the previous two seasons combined. The Bulldogs finished in third place in the Missouri Valley Conference with a 10-8 record.

With Furman, Medved took over a team that won seven games the previous year and improved the record in each of his four seasons. In 2016-17, the Paladins went 23-12 and tied for the Southern Conference's regular-season title.

The 44-year-old coach will now try to create a similar turnaround with Colorado State, where he worked as an assistant for six years—the first five of those under Tim Miles.

The Rams went just 11-21 this season, including 4-14 in the Mountain West Conference.

There are also zero recruits signed for the 2018 class, per 247Sports, although there was only one senior on the roster this past year. There is talent to work with, but Medved could have his work cut out for him.

This is impressive. I'd guess Mack turned down Ohio State last year because they don't focus on basketball like Louisville does. I'd call Mack one of the best available candidates out there, definitely a home run hire for Louisville.

I should have added next season. No doubt X is a good job but they are losing 3 seniors that are the 3 leading scorers so a mid pack BE finish and a bubble season seems likely. 

I don't believe X is a good enough job to get a proven high major coach like Miller or Pearl w/o the FBI stuff and I doubt they will want to as it has been all young up and comers that have built the program.

Fun owner story....when we gathered to have our papers signing party when we founded this thing, Michael Beasley’s Mom was there have drinks with us!
Was able to chat with her.  She used message boards to get a read on several programs.  Know the Pitt sites were disappointing, and our fans were upbeat and funny.  Just goes to show you the power sites like this have.  Wonder how many other recruits or parents have visited GE.
Lol

I'll gladly break it down for you then.

This website has been the catalyst for some really good things that has happened out of really shitty situations. I believe, people want these good things to continue. This message board, at least relatively recently, was something more than a few friends blowing time.

If this message board is going to continue to be a vehicle for raising money to help students I think it's counterproductive to tell, level headed posters like IPA4Me that you don't give two shits. I didn't take his criticism of you one of your opinion but how you tend to present this particular one. Then you doubled down, probably a bad look.

Dunno though, you do you man, it just doesn't seem like a great plan to alienate potential donors just because you want to troll oscar Weber and K-State basketball fans without someone taking exception. Doesn't bother me either way, I think your fish out of water way of trolling is funny as hell but everyone isn't me.

The eye on college basketball podcast made it very clear from the start that Hoiberg would not be a candidate at UCLA. I think it was mentioned but he was born in Lincoln and his whole family are huskers, he moved to Ames in high school. Also with regard to him and ISU, he did not have the best relationship with his athletic director. Remember after he left Iowa State, he leaked that story about Pollard not booking enough nights in a hotel after the Diamond Head Classic and the team had to sleep in a ballroom with no beds or bedding.

the streak may end but it won't be because hoiberg is some coaching genius. he's not.
the best he was able to do at the crap hole in ames was tie for 2nd in the b12 and that took him 5 years to accomplish.

12th  (lol)
3rd
4th
3rd
2nd

those are his b12 finishes by year.  his .557 winning percentage in b12 conference games is only slightly better than king oscar's .548
the big 10 might be a slightly easier league than the b12 but it's not by much.  and he's completely building (not rebuilding) from the ground up, a roster and a program in a place where the venerable danny nee (lol) is looked upon as a God (lol) even though he was canned by the university in the same season he become the program's winningest coach.

he was easily the worst coach in the nba before getting canned.  nebraska would have been better off hiring tyronn lue.

It seems lots of squads, some with success, some without success, are getting transfers. It's more a general change in the environment affecting most every program. Now that we're in the Final 4, idiot media push idiot talking points about how "transfers get you to the final 4".

Also, fwiw, Nebraska is a sleeping giant, they show up to that arena. Not sure Fred is the guy to activate the wins, but he's better than Tim Miles. The Big Ten, right now, is a beast however.

Better win percentage, better record of making the tournament for Dixon.

I do think oscar is probably better but there is an argument to be made.  oscar has had more teams that can compete for titles/top seeds and I'm not sure the Dixon can do that.

He's 62 years old. There can't be a sane person in America who thinks Jamie Dixon is a better coach.

Better win percentage, better record of making the tournament for Dixon.

A lay observer could even note that this year kind of represents Oscars only 'built it myself' achievement. Dixon made TCU competitive after having done some good stuff at Pitt.

I did misspeak when I said this year, I meant class, and you got me on the SIU stuff. But stacked up against Dixon I think my comment still has merit. Last year was the first time Weber advanced to the S16 since coaching Billy's recruits at Illinois. While Dixon inherited a great team from Howland, 4 years later he had his 'own' players in the Elite 8. And then took a pretty bad TCU team and made the tourney and won the NIT. Also boner would probably be a name upgrade, but not because of what/how you said [it].

Sheesh

LOL, what's the opposite of a blue blood? Blue bloods don't hire someone who has proven he isn't a championship coach. They just hired the, at best, 6th best coach in the Big 12 conference.

Supposedly he has an 8 million dollar buyout at TCU and is trying to negotiate it down to 1 million.   I think at this point their status has been revoked.
You hear about this type of thing, but it has never made sense to me.  I mean, "Gee, we agreed on this giant buyout so I wouldn't screw you over...BUT I decided to screw you over anyway and figure you were just kinda messing around.  Can you cut me some slack?"

I mean...how do coaches succeed in "negotiating" buyouts down like this?  It seems like they should have zero leverage for any kind of negotiation, but I must be missing something.

dig up as much dirt as you can on the AD while you're there and if they have some skeletons threaten to go nuclear unless they negotiate that buyout down.

Predictable, he's got a better job. What I really don't get about this search is there are so many coaches they could get, great mid major coaches, why go after the guys they did. They could have had any of these coaches and all of them are better than Jamie Dixon and better fits than Rick Barnes
Eric Musselman
John Becker
Russell Turner
Matt McMahon
Chris Jans
Travis Decurie
Jans is the next Chris Beard.

Did they call Wojo? Mike White?

No chance. It was less than a year ago that he lost 8 scholarship players. Very few high major schools, especially a program as good as OU, needs to take that gamble. They are a very good program that actually doesn't care enough about basketball to deal with the rightful PR hit.

Gregg will need to go to a real low major or even a juco for his next job. His issue was way too high profile for anyone to touch him anytime soon.

All of the high major programs in mid major conferences do. Houston is a little different because the other schools like this; Wichita State, Gonzaga, Villanova, Marquette, etc. either don't have football at all or don't have FBS football. However, there are a couple of families around Houston athletics that aren't at all shy about spending a crap ton of money on sports. They have a couple of families like the Koch's in Wichita.

They do spend plenty but those private schools go the extra mile. I haven't checked in a couple of years but at one time Marquette spent more money on basketball than any other school in the country, Creighton was like 3rd or 4th.

He sure won't, he had a much better chance of it if Self went back to Oklahoma State while Turgeon was still at Wichita State. He hasn't been nearly successful enough at Maryland to be a viable candidate at OU, he certainly wouldn't be at KU.

I think that list is super lazy, it's just people with either OU or Big 12 ties. It's like the author got that list straight from soonerfans. I do think Mills and McCasland will be candidates but they aren't at the top of the list. Mills has never finished better fourth in the Summit League and McCasland only one the Sun Belt once and that was last year, they slid back this year.

Those hires would be just worse than Otzelberger.

I will say that I didn't know he's a UT alum. Since he left Austin in 1995 here are the places he's worked and lived
San Antonio
Abilene, TX
Denton
Fort Scott
Seminole, OK
Lubbock
Myrtle Beach
Abilene again
San Angelo, TX
Little Rock
Lubbock again
I think it's safe to say he doesn't care. He's a final four coach, he's had chances to go to live somewhere that's perceived to be cooler than Lubbock.

Much less effort required to recruit to UT.

Again, I didn't know he's a UT alum but he had top 10 classes in 20, 19, 18 ( I cant tell before 18 because rivals website is being a bitch right now) and each of those classes were ranked higher than UTs class. The only reason his '21 class is low is because he's only gotten one commitment, but that one is a 4 star.

If he goes there it's only because he wants to go home. He has made Tech the better program in every single way. It's very possible he's getting more support at Tech than Shaka or Barnes got. Hell, Tech has the second biggest arena in the conference, UT will have the second smallest when their new arena is done.

I guess they could, but they've never committed anything like that to even a football coach. They didn't go and throw say no money at a football coach, you think they are going to give him 3 million more dollars a year than what Bill Self makes while moving into an arena that has a capacity under 10,000?

We can keep ignoring the fact that he's treated like a king at Tech, I won't. Texas is so far away from committing to basketball like Tech has, it isn't likely that they can or will make up the gap in financial commitment right now. Wouldn't it be just as silly to think that OSU would give Bill Self $10 million?

They've literally not done that in our lifetime for any football or basketball coach. The most high profile coach they've ever hired was Mack and he was running the 3rd or 4th best program in the ACC when they got him.

I've been reading a few UT message boards and they don't seem to think Texas can get Beard either. Royal Ivey seems to be a pretty poplar pick. I had no idea he's coaching for the Nets.

The most interesting name I've seen, but there's no way he's getting that job is Jerrance Howard.

They also seem to like Brad a lot but I put him in the same category as beard.

Dunno, looks like it just ran out of posters

Not that anyone really cares, but I used to post there pretty regularly and it's a long story and I'll try to sum up as concisely as I can.  It was kind of going downhill for a while then they made a poster with the handle of C&C Dean a mod on the South Oval and he ruled that place with an iron fist...and not in a good way.  They had a messed up reputation system where someone who had more rep points carried more weight when they gave out up/down votes and that kind of spiraled out of control and as childish as it may seem the reputation points kind of mattered.  Anyway the mod I mention above ended up with the ability to swing a person's reputation by +/- a million points with a single vote (while the second most powerful rep hammer would have been maybe a couple thousand).

That person treated the board as more or less like real life and he was a pretty abrasive personality (I guess many would consider him a MAGA by today's standards) and he had a habit of not liking others who didn't share very similar opinions as his on lots of things.  Of course this turned off enough of the regular posters - who eventually left - that the place ended up being just two or three people and thousands of bots posting spam.

There is a lot more to the story, some of it kind of crazy in a kind of soap opera way, but I'll spare the details here.

This all happened like a dozen years ago, and honestly I'm surprised that place still exists at all.

I can't imagine him retiring unless he was convinced he was picking his own replacement.  Wonder who that will be?

I've gotten some pretty good intel that tech will hire his lead assistant which surprises me because they definitely have the money go get a heavy hitter. I would go with the lead assistant as a secondary option, but I'm not Kirby. Especially this year, tech only has one commitment, it's not like they have a class they have to keep together. This is going to be the first time in like 4 years that Beard won't have a top 15 class.

I can't wait to see that Beard contract, wonder if he's going to make more than Bill Self now.

Is it wild? Indiana, who some people view as a blue blood is firmly the third best opening this off season. A current top 15 program in the country might be the 6th best job open. We're not even done yet. Are you confident that Kansas, Arizona, Duke might not open up? The secondary carousel, when NBA jobs open, hasn't started yet. Marquette and OU are two jobs that normally would be big carousel jobs, no one even cares about those jobs. Not to mention other really good jobs like New Mexico and UNLV. I forgot about flood aggie until I typed UNLV.

Yeah, it's been wild and fun to keep up with.

I think there was a fair amount of pent-up demand to make coaching changes this year since everyone was freaked the eff out last year during carousel season and didn't make any moves.

I mean he had the best program in the conference and he ran a program deadass in the middle of Chicago but he absolutely did not have the most talent, so yeah, I'd say so. I'd say he underachieved in recruiting relative to his standing within the conference and that with other one bid conference schools. The best he's done was the class after his final four year which was 87th, one place better than Weber State, three worse than Seattle University.

I mostly agree with you, but I suppose the argument for him is that he must be some sort of a diamond in the rough type recruiter since he got them back to a deep run in the tourney.

Just googled his coaching record...elite 8 last year and probably a tournament team this year.

He gets suspended without pay for a couple of games and gives an apology and everyone moves on.

Will be interesting to see what the Big 10 and Michigan imply the precedent for a coaching hitting an opposing coach SHOULD be.  Is this the behavior of a "Michigan Man?"  Is the behavior of a Leader and/or Legend?  We'll see!   :bwpopcorn:

Michigan doesn't seem like the type of institution willing to play the heel.

There isn't a school in America who would fire a successful coach, who is a beloved young alumn, recruiting his ass off for slapping another coach in a scrum. Some of them things Frank got suspended for a closer to fireable offenses than what Howard did.

What kind of precedence is there for a coach open hand slapping another coach? Anything particular to college basketball?

I’m not sure I know of one.  Pretty strange deal, kind of surprised to see it tbh. You see a ton of redass stuff like what led up to it but not sure I’ve seen a coach take a swing on another.

Us old heads remember Buddy Ryan, as a defensive coordinator for the Houston Oilers, punching the offensive coordinator in the face on the sideline on national television. They were up huge at the time. Not only did he not get fired but he got a head coaching job for the next season.

The NFL and NCAA basketball isn’t exactly apples to apples. Again, if there is any precedent for this I haven’t seen or heard of it. Seems hard to make bold assertions with that being the case.

On February 13, 1994, Chaney threatened to kill then-University of Massachusetts Amherst coach John Calipari at a post-game news conference, where Calipari was speaking at a podium. Chaney entered the conference mid-speech, calling him an "Italian son-of-a-bitch," accusing Calipari of manipulating the referees. When Calipari attempted to respond to the accusations, Chaney yelled, "Shut up...!", and proceeded to charge the stage, before being stopped by security. While being held back, Chaney shouted, "When I see you, I'm gonna kick your ass!" As security restrained Chaney, he repeatedly yelled, "I'll kill you!" and angrily admitted telling his players to "knock your rough ridin' kids in the mouth."[6] Chaney received a one-game suspension for the incident.[7] The two coaches later reconciled. Chaney praised Calipari's coaching ability and defended him over the Derrick Rose controversy at the University of Memphis.[8]

Close enough.

I was a big UMass guy back then, even had a final four shirt, but that was funny as hell and Chaney became my second favorite coach that day, Billy Tubbs.

I'm certain everyone has seen both videos, just in case though.

Bobby Knights temper tantrums are probably about as close as the big10 has for a precedent. Throwing chairs isn’t in the same conversation as taking a swing at an opposing coach, but both are unbecoming and something the university would very strongly prefer their head coaches abstain from doing

Saw Juwan's apology tonight on ESPN. He's a good man and a good Michigan Man imo. He's earned his dues in the basketball world.

He's a young coach and will rise above pettiness in time. He's got a great opportunity to leave a fantastic legacy started as a player and fulfilled as a coach.

I'd like to see Wisc and Mich meet in the B10 tournament. These guys are all men. They'll bury the hatchet.

He had to be restrained when argue with Turgeon and yelled "I'll rough ridin' kill you."  That's not an argument.  That's an unstable person with a pattern of anger control problems who I suspect will do this again.

Anyone capable of finishing middle of the pack in a P5 conference should be capable of competing for Big 12 titles in Manhattan, and a proven winner like Pitino should regularly have us seeded 4 or below, with the occasional 1 or 2 seed.

Mack was running a dirty program at Louisville and he was being blackmailed by an assistant coach that he was friends with for over 20 years. That's a hire that Xavier can make just fine but for most high major ADs he's a real risky hire and I'm not sure his performance at Louisville justifies the high risk. He could still face NCAA sanctions for what he was being blackmailed for.

There's no way Archie Miller was going to get a good high major job, not without him being someone's 10th option. Rhode Island was a great landing spot.

Sean Miller, even more high risk high reward than Mack. He would make sense at a place who needs to take a huge swing but won't be left in a worse place if he blew up. A Huggins hire for us back in 2007. I don't know what current opening is best for him. Honestly, I think Missouri would beat good fit for him, their program has been in shambles since they've gone to the SEC. I don't think they have a lot to lose right now.

That's a very different Massachusetts than Boston, very different. Southies don't know a damn thing about UMASS.

Yes, but that's because they haven't had the right coach, not because of any inherent disadvantages they have relative to the rest of their conference. St. Bonaventure is the perfect example of how the right coach can turn around an A-10 school, quickly. It's a multibid league that doesn't have a blue blood or an insurmountable. Travis Ford has been at St. Louis for 6 seasons and there is no reason that Frank can't be more successful than him. The A-10 is an awesome basketball conference and if they offer him that job, he'll crawl to it. It's pretty far and away the best mid major conference and it's a job that multiple coaches have had success at.

UConn is starting to turn around, but nowhere near what it was and has yet to show it can sustain success. BC is floundering in both revenue sports.

But sure, competition does sometimes lift all boats. Probably ought to include Providence in the New England mix, too.

That isn't a lateral move at all. The American is a league that will get 4-6 bids every year, CUSA is a 1 bid league. In addition to that SMU has recently had top 30 recruiting classes. North Texas has never even made the team ratings and the highest they've been was the 7 best class in CUSA.

I'm guessing that SMU didn't offer him the job, he'd be a massive fool not to take it if offered. I guarantee whomever they hire will make more than McCasland will at UNT.

SMU could certainly be a better job but if McCasland likes his roster for next year, it could make sense to maintain his successful program than start over now.  He'll likely have a better shot at P5 opportunities next year by staying put.

SMU could certainly be a better job but if McCasland likes his roster for next year, it could make sense to maintain his successful program than start over now.  He'll likely have a better shot at P5 opportunities next year by staying put.

Who's on the hot seat next year? I don't think anyone in the Big 12 or the SEC with all this year's turnover (except maybe Kentucky). Arizona State, Pitt, Wichita State, Memphis?

The only one of those jobs he could get is Wichita State, but that job won't be open next year, not unless they go like 2-14 in The American.

Ranked below Holloway, Sean Miller, Jans, Payne, Scheye, Gates, Golden, McMahon, and Willard.  :dubious:


Quote
Tier 4
Jerome Tang, Kansas State. Mimicking the Baylor model in the Big 12 is a defensible philosophy. Hiring one of the architects of the Baylor machine is a defensible move. The inflection point is Kansas State deciding to do everything Baylor has done, and continues to do, to keep that machine humming. And, to a lesser extent, how much geography matters in the endeavor; Baylor is located in the Land of Basketball Talent Plenty known as Texas, and Kansas State is, well, not. Tang deserves this shot. He’s been extremely picky, too, so we have to surmise there’s something he sees here to convince him it was time to leave Waco after two decades. Postseason success is not ancient history here — 10 NCAA Tournament appearances between 2008 and 2019 — but this is a rebuild, full stop, in a blast furnace of a league with a first-time head coach leading the way. A lot could go right. A lot could go wrong.

It appears things are rapidly unraveling at Texas Tech. Top portal transfer Fardaws Almaq is going to transfer (go get him JT; average 19 pts and 13 rebs at Utah Valley as a freshman last year) without having played a minute because of a broken foot. Rumors are Mark Adams has lost the team and is on the outs with top donors, including the big daddy with the unlikely name of Dusty Womble, with the two reported not on speaking terms.
Add to this the widespread gossip that Adams had an affair with the wife of his dead twin brother, which apparently started before the brother died.

Almaq is definitely transferring and is eligible to play immediately. His foot cast came off this week and it's said he'll be ready to hit the court in mid-January.
Meanwhile, Tech fans are saying "that's us" in response to a Fran tweet saying he's hearing some talented teams are starting to crack because of non-payment of NILs and jealousy among NIL have and have-not players.

My guess is that we'll see this from Howard again, which will again be amusing to see Michigan and the Big 10 squirm.

Hmm, interesting thing to say. Why?

not to speak for Pete, but because he also tried for fight Turgeon last year? 
Going further back, he put a in-game hit out on Lance Stephenson and was sued for giving a woman herpes
So basically he's a piece of crap?

He didn't try to fight Turgeon, they got into an argument. Didn't know about those other two things but they don't show a proclivity for slapping assistant coaches.


He had to be restrained when argue with Turgeon and yelled "I'll rough ridin' kill you."  That's not an argument.  That's an unstable person with a pattern of anger control problems who I suspect will do this again.

He's going to get more love Tuesday night than he ever has in his professional life, and it'll continue through the season. I really have little worry he'll leave this year or soon as I honestly think he can legit vie for a national championship here and be compensated appropriately.

At what point does he put AD Taylor in a spot where he has to renegotiate/extend midseason? I mean, we're going to be favorites the next two games and they are very winnable. If we win and hang 90 on KU at home to start the conference play at 6-0, he's got to do something, right?  The rumors will be swirling at that point and he'll be the hottest coaching commodity in the land.  His buyout is a mere $5mil. That's crap when premier programs are paying $10M/year.

He may not be trying to negotiate a raise, but he sure left the door wide open.

At what point does he put AD Taylor in a spot where he has to renegotiate/extend midseason? I mean, we're going to be favorites the next two games and they are very winnable. If we win and hang 90 on KU at home to start the conference play at 6-0, he's got to do something, right?  The rumors will be swirling at that point and he'll be the hottest coaching commodity in the land.  His buyout is a mere $5mil. That's crap when premier programs are paying $10M/year.

He may not be trying to negotiate a raise, but he sure left the door wide open.

You don't extend/negotiate mid season, ever, and pretty clearly Gene won't. He didn't with Klieman, he sure as hell isn't going to do it with a coach in his first season. The basketball season, particularly the conference season, is really short, the Big 12 tournament is 8 weeks from tomorrow. He's not going to take another job, during the season. Worry about this crap after the season. He's also not going to be anywhere close to $10 million, not even $5 unless we win the Big 12 and go to the final four.

Kinda feels nice to have something that other people would love to take from you.

Not "we all" the people losing their crap is a miniscule minority, same with the number of people crying because the coaches actually expressed the need to see a full arena.

I think it’s also about time we came to grips with the fact that KSU is just an easy place to win. Our past two coaches each had E8 appearances, and the last one we fired got us two conference titles.

Tang’s ability to create a whole new team from a bottom dwelling roster is still nothing short of incredible, though.

Or, and I know this is wild and crazy, his answer was exactly how he felt at the time he was asked. If he left and that's his answer, I agree that it would be horseshit, we made fun of Hugh Freeze for saying something similar after getting the Auburn job, skirting telling us his actual though process. In this case, it's perfectly reasonable that he hasn't given much thought as to why he's going to either leave or stay at his job he's had for less than a year.

Quit worrying for now, dorks.

That's where I'm at, and as others stated he's not leaving midseason, his stock is very high (as it should be) right now but there is a lot of if and buts to go. Also, we did give him a shot, that I think does matter to him unless he is thrown stupid amounts of money.

Also, it doesn't make sense for a school to poach someone from a fairly decent historical program unless it's like to Duke/UNC, and even then I can't see either of those schools making a move midseason on that.

If we end up with 20+ wins, make the tourny, and win a game or two, he'll get a sizeable raise as he should, and that'll make next year interesting, if he repeats the success then I'll worry more about him potentially leaving unless we throw him a ton of money. He'll definitely get more than a 100k raise next year.

I'm not particularly scared that he's leaving for UT.  I just don't like his response to the question.  It could certainly be that he was just being 100% honest and not giving the coach speak, which is respectable but not reassuring.

I don't think UT is offering an unmatchable load of cash to someone who's coached 15 games.

ok, i realize that at this moment i'm high asf from Eau De Tang, but like, serious multi-part question:
1. Does Tang legit have a path to success at k-state? As in like, "realistically competing for a natty" level success. I think last night in football it was abundantly clear what it looks like when you have such a disparity in talent, and realistically for any team that will be in the Big12 in the year 2025 that could legit be a 10-15 year process in order to meaningfully close that gap (if it can even be done). But i don't think that disparity exists in college basketball. I don't think teams like Butler make it to the FF in back to back years if that's the case. If it were always chalk then i think it would be a lot more common for the FF to have nothing wlower than a 2 or 3 seed.
2. If Tang DOES have a legit path to success here, and we can pay him a fair wage as compared to his peers and provide him with all the support he believes is necessary to be successful (i.e. well paid assistants, facility upgrades on a reasonable schedule, etc.) then wouldn't it make sense for him to want to stay?

Like idk, maybe this is just chip-on-my-shoulder syndrome, but I would argue that the success of a coach like LHOFHC Liam Synder is more impressive than like, Gene Chizik, for example, even though Chizik has more national titles but he also walked into a well oiled machine.

Maybe that is an incredibly stupid way to think about it. Maybe any coach with half a brain would gladly suck off a homeless drifter if it meant getting the opportunity to coach at a place like UT and the like. But i dunno. I could see the point of view of a coach taking pride in the fact that they can actually hit a home run instead of getting to start on 3rd base. Not to mention you don't have all the political landmines like big swingin weiner donors who have their own ideas about how things should be done.

The parity of talent in college basketball is much closer than the talent gap in college football. The opportunity to win a college basketball natty is much more attainable, for most middle tier institutions, than in football. Tang could certainly compete for FFs and a Natty here if he gets the support he needs.

True story from the DB92 archives: a young KITH was doing color for one of the Asbury b-ball games and at that time, if the Cats actually won the game, one of the assistant coaches would come do the post game interview. The student crew used to be at the very top of Bramlage, so the play-by-play guy would walk down to the court after the game to fetch the assistant coach (otherwise they'd forget) and then walk all the way back to the top. On this occasion, the play-by-play guy and Mark Fox were about halfway up the stairs and I yelled "we're on in 15 seconds!" and then they both hauled ass up to the top of the stairs and when they got to the top I said, "just kidding"

Always had mad respect for Mark Fox running up those stairs for the student radio station - what a trooper. Not quite as much respect for his b-ball coaching skills...

He has a decently long head coaching resume that is pretty mediocre but I bet he stays regardless of tourney results.

Why do you think UT would be spurned if he left though?

Appears TTech is going to hire MaCasland, the North Texas guy from the Drew tree and boring offense we passed on last year. Word is they called Tang, who told them eff off in his Christian way. Also called Bennett from St. Marys, who also said no effing way I'm going to that godforsaken west Texas wasteland (to be fair he has apparently said no to a number for mid-level PAC schools).
In other news, Wichita State is said to have offered Miles of Oral Roberts, another former Drew assistant and frankly a more exciting hire than MaCasoand IMO.

That's pretty bad, it was the last game of the year and most fan bases would have shown up better than that. They don't have nearly enough historical success to ignore a deep nit run. crap even Oklahoma State has more fans at their game than that. Really though he should just quit it that's his attitude, the program there has definitely gone stale.

His head coaching record outside of this season is objectively bad.  Seems short sighted to hang everything on one successful season.  They ran off Barnes to hire a guy that couldn't dominate mid-major conferences?  Unlikely, though they have apparently heard quite a few nos so far, thus the Brad stuff.

Additional itk nugg: unrelated to Texas, seems if other dominoes were to fall (say kentucky opening up and hiring away Muss), then Brad would go balls out for Arkansas.  Illinois' AD is very put off by the job searching after this season.  Didn't mind the go purples fight on state stuff last season.  Putting out feelers to potential candidates they say.  Real hot stove crap boys.

Probably nothing will happen tho.  It's somewhat interesting how much of a boner most Illinois hoops bbsers have for Brad leaving.  Usually they are panicky, insecure bitches like with Self and the entire coaching search that led to Groce.  They really don't like Brad.  No doom and gloom, just a bunch of pie in the sky who could we get speculation.  They have a lot of faith in the current AD.

I had the honor of spending Saturday and Sunday in Omaha with my Husker in laws. Belief from them (There are actually Nebraska basketball fans) that Altman could happen if the Hoiberg could be dispatched cheaply. Dana must hate Oregon if he would entertain the move.

This was a narrative driven solely by one blogger, who's rarely correct. He did the same damn thing with Dusty May, often putting him and Tang on the same lists. He didn't have Tang or May going to Michigan. I knew trilly was making up crap when he insisted that tang was leaving K-State for Louisville literally as Tang was moving his elderly parents from Florida to Kansas, in the dead ass of winter.

I think that kind of stuff is pretty easy for a coach to ignore and evergreen in fan bases.

I feel like the only places where a fan base actually affects the job are the schools with multiple mega donors who all insist on having a say in how things are done cause they’re used to getting their way.

Mo money (self explanatory), less problems (SEC style eligibility/compliance standards)

Tang doesn't owe us anything for hiring him from Baylor. He had offers before, he was just waiting for a good one.

That said, save for the Tomlin stuff Tang has everyone going for him at ol' KSU. Instant success, strong fanbase, consistently best basketball conference. The wildcard is how he feels about his bosses at each school, which can count for a lot (and was obviously the reason Frank bounced).

Anywho, my gut says he stays. Unless things are really bad, it seems against everything he's said to bounce after 2 years.

Where I'm at. Why bounce on the school that took the risk on you. I get the Frank comparisons some are trying to make but not after two years. But idk
took the risk? come on man.

You're right, 19 years an assistant. Shocked as anyone else to finally get him a HC job.

Takeaway here is we hire perfect fits 2 out of 3 times because tang is also a perfect fit for here. (3 out of 4 if you count huggs)

You’re basing your argument that his was a risky hire on the fact that he stayed at Baylor for 19 years.  He had opportunities in those years to take other jobs, it’s not as though ours was his first opportunity. What was the risk to KSU that you have identified?

I’ll suggest that his hiring was about as low risk as there is for good old KSU.

Unless by "fans" you mean the big money donors, it would clearly be the latter. A casual fan (me) wouldn't assume their NIL commitment is going to do anything to sway a coach's decision.

Some of the NIL donations can be pledged for a specific sport, so I could easily imagine part of the discussion being whether the "general" donations should be split proportionally or whether a program with less pledged donations should get a disproportionate share of the general fund to make up for it.

But he didn’t, and instead the KState Twitter crowd ran with a bunch of BS about throwing things at the bench and being racist. It amazes me how many K State fans are being intentionally arrogant of that whole situation.

I don't think so. I think he would rather be here, he just wants to level the field a bit, more of the NIL pie, more autonomy. Plus Arky would be a complete reset with an equally or even far less forgiving and welcoming fanbase. He'd have almost 13 roster spots to fill I think.

So quick? I thought he was fake as eff even before this year. This year just confirmed it further.

I generally pull for the old big 8 teams. I was sincere in saying I think you guys will be better off without him.

Tang caused plenty of toxicity towards ISU and he never spoke out about it. I’d have a lot more respect for him now if he came out and said “my bad, I thought I something that I actually didn’t.”

But he didn’t, and instead the KState Twitter crowd ran with a bunch of BS about throwing things at the bench and being racist. It amazes me how many K State fans are being intentionally arrogant of that whole situation.
foocyclone sounds really racist

I don't believe the Arkansas stuff.  That sounds super gross to me. 

Right? Like why

They have more of every conceivable measurable advantage to make a job easier than we do, literally every single one, and not by a little either.

Crazy he turned that down then

A couple of things.
1. The 3MAW guys said he was facing a lot of internal pressure, presumably from friends and family to stay.
2. Arkansas has all those advantages, it can't be denied, they play in a 20,000 seat arena for goodness sakes, but it's Arkansas, it's a weird and frankly disgusting place. Muss left them for a situation that's appreciably worse, but it's not in Arkansas so there's that.

How has Painter been at Purdue for as long as he has? No one tries to hire him away just because it's his alma mater? He's won the Big Ten 4 of the past 8 years and is only getting paid $3.67 million. Surely somewhere like Kentucky or UCLA could lure him away.

Which is kinda why I was like why. He left for USC. Which I get is location wise undeniably better but from a program and history is just absolute meh. His move from Arkansas to USC is like Frank to the other USC. It has little to do with history and a lot with admin. I get Linton dicked over Tang but from all I see the mustang is a great guy to work for.

To me all Arky has is it's 40 minutes of hell past and that's it. Your second point assessment is the correct take on trying to go to Arkansas to be bball coach. It ain't worth it

I think Tang will at some point get another job, and then realize how much he loved being at a school where the fan base embraces basically anything you ask (not chanting F KU, not court storming, etc). Then he'll be really sad that he's just another coach at *insert name of school here* and want to go back somewhere like K-State, even if it means taking a pay cut.

Man, a Kentucky coaching search sounds like a blast. If Tang was on their radar, I wonder if him turning down Arkansas makes him seem more or less available.

Huggins at Kentucky would be the most non-EMAW related fun I've had in college basketball in a long time. Maybe ever.

I am of course very biased and thinking with my heart, but I can’t see Tang being on their radar with only two years of head coaching experience.  If he had gone to the elite 8 again, then probably, but I think the sting of Billy Gillispie still lingers.

The only coaches that would satisfy those nut jobs are Jay Wright and Bill Self and that isn’t happening.  Maybe Billy Donovan.

Bill is beloved in Lawrence. Cal was despised in Lexington. Bill gets close to $10MM/year already at KU. They'll build a statue of him next to Phog Allen. Probably will name something after him, although it will be hard to supplant Allen or Naismith. He's got security, adoration, and legacy already--all things that are not conducive to the Kentucky job. They eat their own, there. I think he'll also retire soon-ish. He's already said he doesn't want to be one of those coaches who does the job until they die. He wants to enjoy retirement, and given recent health concerns, I could see his timeline towards that accelerating.

1. Dan Hurley
2. Jerome Tang
3. Mark Few
4. Jon Scheyer
5. Nate Oates
6. Scott Drew

I think Hurley is probably the best given that he's in position to win back to back nattys tonight.  Oats assembled a final four team that probably played UCONN the toughest in the tourney for 35 minutes. Drew won a title at Baylor and seems to still be recruiting at a really high level in the portal era.

I would say so but Jay Wright is a heckuva silver medal if UK can get him. 

Hurley's two year NCAA tournament run is one of the most impressive accomplishments in the modern era of college basketball.  In a giant, single-elimination tournament that is known for it's randomness, UConn has blown out everyone.  Even if you say the early rounds are against garbage, UConn is outscoring opponents by over 20 in the S16 and beyond the past two seasons.  It's unreal.

I don't think what Hurley's done tops Wright's last 9 seasons. Wright won the Big East 7 out of those 9 years, and the years he finished second he won an NCAA title and got a Final Four. Hurley's had two absolutely ridiculous tourney runs, but I'm not sure if that's bad luck early in last season and his prior seasons or what. I'd say it's debatable at least.

Hurley is the best coach in college basketball and it's not close.  I don't know if UK can get him, but you absolutely start there.
Is he better than peak Jay Wright?

I would say so but Jay Wright is a heckuva silver medal if UK can get him. 

Hurley's two year NCAA tournament run is one of the most impressive accomplishments in the modern era of college basketball.  In a giant, single-elimination tournament that is known for it's randomness, UConn has blown out everyone.  Even if you say the early rounds are against garbage, UConn is outscoring opponents by over 20 in the S16 and beyond the past two seasons.  It's unreal.

I don't think what Hurley's done tops Wright's last 9 seasons. Wright won the Big East 7 out of those 9 years, and the years he finished second he won an NCAA title and got a Final Four. Hurley's had two absolutely ridiculous tourney runs, but I'm not sure if that's bad luck early in last season and his prior seasons or what. I'd say it's debatable at least.

Part of the reason I like Hurley is that he's doing it with NIL and the transfer portal.  I feel like several former HOF caliber coaches didn't want to adjust to the changes and some current ones are having trouble adjusting, while Hurley is consistently kicking ass.  Wright certainly has a longevity/consistency edge.

Calipari to Arkansas is being reported as a done deal by everyone.

CBS and others allege that Drew is on the short list for Kentucky. If he went, I wonder if Tang would want the Baylor job. My guess is that he would and that the interest would be mutual.

I kinda agree with clams that Drew is probably very happy at Baylor, having built them from nothing. BUT, what I fear is a situation where Drew agrees to leave it in the capable hands of his long time co-builder and friend Jerome Tang.

Seems weird to build up a program to be a perennial top 20 team, win a Natty, and bail for another program.  How often does that happen?  I don't think very often which is why I don't see Drew leaving Baylor.  Seems like he has a good thing going and he can be there as long as he wants with limited pressure from fans/AD/UP.

Yeah, I get $$$ but the dude has enough of that and probably enjoys his position where he's at. Kentucky would have just insane expectations and that seems like a lot of stress that late in your career.

I think this also speaks to the new NIL landscape. If you got a good thing going why bail for place that is going to have an insufferable fanbase. You have to not only have the trajectory but the ego to take over a place like that. Obviously Kentucky is a helluva job. But I feel like you got to have the right personality to want it too. Oats and Otz can be worshipped by their respective fanbases for what they are doing, and get a raise out of it too.

I think it will be less. It always has been and always will be coaches first. I think "pedigree" will fall and size of alumni base will rise. I don't want to pick on ku specifically (and K-State is in the same spot without the benefit of "pedigree") but I have no idea how they expect to keep up nil money with schools that have 2-3 times the enrollment and alumni. Maybe they can get by focusing on basketball while those big schools focus on football, but the numbers just don't work out for them. Kentucky and Duke may hold on because they have a national following.

NIL is all that matters in getting players. If you pay the most, you will have a great team. Then you can afford to have a painful dork as a coach as long as he is good at teaching X and O.  Your school can be located in a crap hole and you’ll be just fine.

Put another way, great programs are purchased.

Bama, Purdue, NC State, and UCONN

2023 FF Teams:
SDST, Miami, FIU, and UCONN

I think long term, NIL support will be more closely related to profile. Higher profile/blue bloods will win in the NIL/Portal era.
:nono:
NIL money will be king, program pedigree will be down the list of priorities for top recruits.  What WILL be a deciding factor is the number of players the program that land in the NBA.  McDonalds All-Americans don't go to Lawrentucky because of it's atmosphere or tradition, they go to KU because KU have a lot of players that make it to the NBA.  When the number of players KU puts in the NBA declines, so will recruiting.

I don't disagree with anything you're saying, I just expect that in the long term NIL money and program pedigree will be more closely related than they might be now.

The turning point will be when schools are able to pay their players directly. Schools outside of the Big 10 and SEC can keep up with NIL, but they can't keep up with tv money.
that tv money that you’re talking about is already spoken for elsewhere.  so for your scenario to play out, something will have to give.

Seems weird to build up a program to be a perennial top 20 team, win a Natty, and bail for another program.  How often does that happen?  I don't think very often which is why I don't see Drew leaving Baylor.  Seems like he has a good thing going and he can be there as long as he wants with limited pressure from fans/AD/UP.
This is true but Baylor is arguably the "lowest profile" school to win a championship in recent memory. Villanova is probably the closest comparison?

They don't need to leave the NCAA. They already field more than the minimum number of sports and they will cut some of those to maximize what they are able to pay players.

Baylor can't possibly match, but I don't think they have to. I'd say, here's how much we can increase per year, how much goes to you, how much to staff, how much to nil?

If he stays, he'll have a shot at another title or at least making another final four in the next 5 years, they're renaming buildings and streets after him, he gets a statue and the Drew name is cemented in history. If he goes, he has some cash and could possibly destroy his legacy.

i hope you learned something!

One would have to read Drew's contract, but indemnification clauses can be circumvented relatively easily.  On the other hand, if Baylor has good legal counsel, they could adopt measures to counter most common circumvention schemes.

Plot twist: UK hires Tang  :horrorsurprise:

Also, Waco sucks balls.
drew desperately wanted the kentucky job but has a no indemnification clause in his contract with baylor athletics.  if he left, he would need to make baylor whole.  he couldn’t convince tang to leave k-state to replace him at baylor. therefore, he was on the hook for almost $30M to baylor.  this is the backstory about his decision to stay in Waco that no one in the MSM is going to tell you.

Well if we know one thing about Waco U, it’s that they will have good legal counsel

Can you imagine him trying to explain the play-hard chart to your average Kentucky basketball fan? What a spectacle

I didn't recognize him until they showed him in a UK photo with Rick P. He was fun to watch in college.

here's the scenario i'm currently allowing to run on repeat in my head:

UK: hey Scott Drew wanna coach here?
Drew: no
also Drew: (under his breath) You guys don't have the weird religious culture that i crave. honestly...baylor isn't weird-religion-y enough for me...

It's a weird deal. The AD is nearing retirement and I assume has the support of the majority of donors to make this hire. I'd love to see it turn into a Tenn Schiano situation just for the lolz.
