Belvis is a well documented anfi-frankite. He is clearly going full tard for oscar because he isn't Frank. Belvis doesn't seem like a guy to waiver from a stance when he takes it. I look forward to seeing how he justifies not being entertained by oscar Weber November basketball. Dax on the other hand hates everyone, whenever the transition to hating Weber comes it will be really easy for him.
I'm not anti-Frank or pro-oscar. I'm just a glass half full guy on a glass half empty board.
I mean, if you go back and read my posts, I think I've been pretty consistent that I wish Frank was still our coach. But, he's not. There were things I hated about Frank. no question. but there were a lot of positives as well. I wouldn't drive up to every home game if I hated the program. The only question I see as relevant is whether Frank's "success" can be replicated by a coach like oscar Weber. The answer to that question is Yes. Again, I'm a glass half full guy. I believe that Weber can attain 20 win seasons, 3rd-5th place finishes at KSU, and consistent NCAA tourneys.
Most on this board probably hope that I'm wrong. It is what it is.
I have 0 doubt that you love K-State basketball, that isn't the issue, but to call yourself an optimist on a board of pessimists is laughable. I don't need to link the scores of posts you've had the last basketball season complaining about everything. Every single basketball debate you had before oscar Weber was hired you argued the negative. So far your stance on the Weber era is the polar opposite of how you posted during the Frank Martin era. We were all the optimists, where do you think Frankite came from? You were not a Frankite, but you are certainly a Weberite. The only explaination of your shift it that you're excited to have the Frank Martin era behind us, because there have been absolutely 0 signs of positive momentum since he arrived, none. Also painting yourself as some rogue positive po is rough ridin' absurd. Most of the board is like me, we want oscar to succeed because we love K-State hoops, but continuing to ignore everything that has happened to this point and keep saying "wait and see" is absurd. I was on the wrong side of the Jim Wooldridge and Ron Prince debates, but at least in those two cases there was early positive momentum. Everything about Weber's program to this point has been awful but you have flipped your once lofty standards.
You refused to give frank a pass for anything but to this point you're willing to ignore oscar's:
Shitty recent record with good recruits
The fact that he lost the recruiter to an awful basketball mid major
He couldn't attract any assistant coach that had any options
Recruited a mid major player at a position we're stacked at while ignoring a top 150 recruit at a position of need
