Post by: MakeItRain on March 31, 2012, 02:47:58 PM
So we're announcing a new head coach in 15 minutes and the athletic department still have not issued a press release stating that they are hiring oscar Weber as head coach.

I appreciate that you are trying to keep us out of a coma like depression, but it's really too rough ridin' late.  It's over, it's going to happen, just toss the match over your shoulder and don't look back.

Post by: MakeItRain on March 31, 2012, 02:52:01 PM
uh, that wasn't my point at all.  I don't ever remember a school having a press conference to introduce a head coach but refuses to acknowledge that they are having a press conference to introduce a head coach.

It's such a huge facepalm all around.  Nothing on the website, nothing.  I click on the bball section see the Frank Faces media guide and want to cry.  This is the worst.

this is strategic so that no one listens.

this is exactly it.  Right before the final 4 where all of the media has gathered and won't bother to call and and ask questions like, "so oscar Weber huh, why in the world would you hire him?"

Homely wife alert!  Even ugly ass Jim Boehiem can get a hot wife!  If he can't nail down the hottest chick on the block, how's he supposed to nail down the hottest recruits? 

This program is a dumpster fire on the backside of a propane mfg plant.

did he say he spent 48 hours in a hotel room by himself looking at charts??

That's not how you hire a coach John!!!!

I think he actually said he was looking at "charts and things..." I'm guessing the "things" part meant reruns of Woody Woodpecker cartoons on the free cable tv... and I bet that was what he was looking at most of the time.

I love how he insulted K State twice in the opening presser with the "Why K State?" question and the difficulty recruiting to Manhattan.  He pulled that crap all the time at Illinois ... he is an insecure, socially awkward idiot and I can't believe someone at a major school with a very talented roster was dumb enough to hire him as head coach.  Your AD is a complete idiot!

Well...no.  And by the way, oscar mows his own lawn, so he's not even helping out the local economy.  Some 13 year old is going to take a hit, probably won't be able to go to college.  bad person.

He actually didn't mention the direct flights to Chicago; possibly ironic, definitely funny.  When talking about recruiting he rambled about how far away Manhattan is.

Also threw a Tad Boyle-related jab in there for the tucks, about not hiring someone associated with KU.

This completely insincere and completely botched ploy is how John Currie and oscar Weber thought it would be best to start off this new era of Kansas State Basketball... It's a slap in the face.

When Currie goes he's going to a better gig, that train left the station with the football stadium upgrade.  Building his Taj Mahal out on the plains right next to the meat goat facility will be enough to guarantee that he could hire Roseanne Barr to replace LHC Bill Snyder and 80% of BCS schools would still take him as AD and feel really good about it.
