Yeah, I'm not sure how to take that positivity.

He was pretty down on us last year and nailed it

I'm so glad that stuck out to someone else. God bless. :thumbs:
-
Fastest and best shooting team he's ever had? :surprised:

I'd kill a drifter to have jeremy jones be half of what denis was. Dunx on Bitchez will be my favorite player this year no question.

Nice, a Steve Blake and JJ Barae on this team.

This will forever be known as "The 9-21-11 Frank Interview"
The turning point.
We are going to the dance this year. It would be nice if someone can let the phog know what frank said today. Maybe get em a bit worried. :kstategrad:

He's playing his mind off

"When he was young, he was a great athlete. Now, he's shooting the cover off the ball."
If this is true, how good is Omari? :ck:
And what is the 2 Deep
Will / A-Rod
Southwell / Jones
HOT-ROD / OMARI
JAM-SAM / Watson
JO / Gibson
Also play Tay, Nino, Diaz,.
run 13 deep? :ck:
-
remember last season when frank agreed that k-state should be top 5. then duke anally penetrated our anuses? and then florida anal passaged us, and then unlv anal passaged us? he talked pretty highly of us prior to the penetration (no vaseline) last season too.
-
hmmm ^link

sorry buddy, your alcoholic brain can't remember back 11 months, but it's true. it said it several times and one time in particular i was driving back from chipotle (burrito, no rice, pinto, chicken, two scoops hot, cheese, sour cream, to go) at lunch and he told soreen petro that if we didn't belong in top 5 then no one did, etc. just frank's regular load of complete bullshit.
-
hmmm I think I was overloaded on sodium during that time could be the cause.
-
JO will be at least 2nd team all B12 this year, maybe first. Def. first next year.

Forthcoming book
2011-12 KANSAS STATE BASKETBALL: A SEASON ON THE BRINK ..... OF DOMINATION!
OK, the ending of the title definitely needs some work, but I think you hoopheads out there will get my point, and I do apologize for the :opcat:.

Nope, wrong. See below for proof:
Frank Martin says he never bought into Kansas State's preseason hype
"Who says it wasn't supposed to be this way for us? You?" Martin said while addressing media after Monday's loss at Missouri. "You never asked me. You said it, not me. If you would have asked me, I would have said we were going to go through some bumps on the road."

This is a pretty great post. Really on a roll lately, y-l_a.
-
I was about to make a thread about this, but I think it will fit into this thread. I was talking to some friends who were at a party with JHR and Jam Sam. They were talking to them about the upcoming season and JHR and Jamar said Diaz is looking really good. They said Diaz may start this season, so take that fwiw.

I was at a party with Jordan and Nino. I asked them about a couple of things about this up coming season, but unfortunately all my drunk ass remembers is telling them to get to the final four and beat ku. :dubious:

someone make a video so I can get excited for cat hoops

The way I remember it, Martin was pretty positive around this time, although nowhere near as gung-ho as he seems right now. It was only later that he he said he didn't buy into the hype. Preseason, he had the team embracing the hype, because it (the hype) showed the team had earned the Big 12 coaches' respect.
But Frank's statements are fairly gushing this time around. It makes me optimistic that we'll go dancing this year. Is he for real or is he just trying to sell tickets?

Just drawing attention away from their sub-par recruiting.
-
If this is a ploy to the excite the KSU cats fanbase, it's working on KITNfury.
-
Jones speed and Omari cover shooting off were the two biggest things I didn't expect to hear from Frank. We'll see if they are true.

wow. it looks like skycat just pwn3d the resident booze hound, y-l-a.

:lol:
thats funny coming from "sky"cat :bigtoke: do you even know the effects cannabis has on the memory?
-
1. excited about speed note. Would love to get our too-fast-for-complete-control fast break back.
2. shooting is great sign since we lost our best shooter
3. Frank basically said that omari isn't athletic anymore, but hey he can shoot
Over all, really :excited: . Now if the rough ridin' ticket office wold just call me and get my seats moved permanently to Sec 17 :chainsaw:

fwiw, this one just means that Omari is now a shitty athlete

I like sitting up high. Last year I traded my not awesome seats to some elderly folks for the first non-seat cushion row and loved them. Just hoping to get them.
-
Hey guys in case anyone was wondering I think Frank was putting a positive spin on Omaris lack of athleticism but highlighting his abilities as a shooter.

@FrankMartinKSU on Rodney McGruder "When he + Will Sprading played well last year, we beat everyone. We need him to be fearless."
Love when Frank says things like this, can totally hear him saying it in the most matter of fact way.
Also, wasn't Frank this positive in 09-10 preseason comments? :crossfingers:

Frank was just optimistic at this time last year because he just received a truckload of Vagisil that he thought might help Wally maintain his balance. Oh and he had this vague notion that CK's tweets about Manhattan changing his life might mean less smoking. Deluded hopes.
This year: 1) No major pre-existing problems with players. Aside from Omari's hair/tweets. 2) Much more JYC roster, less bitchy. 3) No preseason hype. Like Zero. I will pretty much always be able to get more excited about this type of preseason.
-
The team has potential that's for sure. McGruds, Sprads, Southwell, and JHR get me all :emawkid: and Gipson and Angel could be :excited:
-
Looking forward to "bought in" Jamar. :ksu:

More JYC :love:

Yeah. Same. I kind of lol'd. I think the official ticket office policy is to wait until the last minute and then call everyone and give a "welp, same as last year. Still pretty good though, right?"

I think they start from the top of newshound-types who want to get cheaper seats, then go to the people in the cheapest seats who want to upgrade and bump them to the best ones, all to avoid having to deal with everyone who wants to move rather than just a few and then give the "welp" line to all of us.

Weird, ticket office called just now but about IBA and Sprint. No courtside, but 6 and 4 together at midcourt in the 2nd & 6th row respectively.

Ticket office called me about my seat change request but made no mention of my courtside ticket requests. I'm guessing if you didn't get them, neither did I.

Yeah, 2 different calls. Although on the first one, the lady was acting as though I was getting no KC/ICT tickets because she thought I was trying to order them right then and not as part of the season ticket purchase from months earlier.

great work clusterfuck of a ticket office! :thumbs:

This is where the real Wildcat Nation is supposed to jump in and talk about how great Robin or somebody was.

Rumblings that one particular section of IBA will feature the whole goEMAW crew in consecutive rows, with BBF$$Kat playing the Rusty to my Shingler.

this was the only thing I took away from the interview. all the other bs he said he usually says or insinuates especially this time of year, but he doesn't shy away from saying someone is being a lazy b*tch.

last year all he ever talked about was the team having no leadership

Former St. John's guard Omari Lawrence should also be in the mix for minutes and has "been shooting the top off the ball" according to Martin.
Clearly, edited for parental discretion.
