Title: Best wishes to Brad Underwood, who knows a sinking ship when he sees one
Post by: Pete on March 31, 2012, 05:33:32 PM
I hope Brad has worlds of success.  He's a great coach, and knows that he's worth much more than being a lacky to a proven loser like oscar Weber.

Best thing, really.  He'll learn from the best coach in basketball.  Could work out great for us in about 2-3 years.

TAKE NOTES, UNDY!!

Run like the wind, Brad. I think this is a good time to commend oscar Weber for NOT TALKING TO POTENTIAL assistants while Gottlieb pretty much had a staff wrapped up.

To repeat, the radio host had a staff ready to go, and the guy that just got fired, "um uhhhh would uh like to have K-State ties" on the staff.

Yeah, that kind of preparation might have had something to do with why he's such a shitty coach.

Don't blame him.  He follows Frank he can claim to be the guy that runs the offense.  Stays under Weber and he's a guy that just hangs around Manhattan.  Easier to land a head gig as Martin's go-to guy.

Can we put to bed the "evil Frank" crap that has been floating out to the message boards now?  Would the ENTIRE staff be following an egomaniacal coach plummeting toward self-distruction to a dead end program when at least some of them obviously had other options? 

*Oh dear God.  I just realized the above actually could be true and Undy still thought it was a better career move then joining oscar Weber.

It's possible that they'd rather follow an Evil Frank than stay with an Evil Currie. Frank at least believes in giving them the resources needed to get their jobs done.

Hilarious that an announcement that he was being retained didn't go out at 6 a.m. this morning, knowing that some emotions needed to be tempered within the fanbase.  I hope Brad hangs Currie's nuts from a tree on salary or bolts.

Don't understand why there would be anything upside from our best players leaving.  Even if your prime goal is just getting Weber out, the worst thing you could have him start with a bare cupboard, finish at the bottom of the confernce his first year, and actually have him improve the program over his first four years.

Yeah. The chances of getting rid of Currie involve him leaving after a couple decent years from Weber much more than getting him fired. JMHO.

Honestly, now that oscar pretty much has Lowry, I'm fine with Brad following Frank. oscar now has his older, experienced coach on staff. Now he needs a couple of young, energetic recruiters. I get the connection, but now you move on. Just like I didn't want a K-Stater for the principle of it as a HC I'm pretty much the same when it comes to assistants.

So Brad Underwood is certainly kick some ass right now.

He currently has Stephen F. Austin 10-2 with losses to Texas by 10 and East Tennessee St. by 8.
His team is currently rank 88 in kenpom and 6 in the country in forcing turnovers.
This is really impressive considering Stephen F. Austin was ranked 62 last year but lost its top 3 players.

Would take Underwood.
i love the idea too, but as a technicality, oscar hasn't mumped up this season yet, so bleak as those first 3 loses made the season appear, a potential 3-0 vs GW/GZ/OleM is trending in the right direction. And if this season goes well, thats actually 2 good years in a row, one of which can't be explained by his atrocious recruiting (i think oscar would honestly be better off leaving recruiting to assistants, he has terrible interpersonal communication skills, i shook his hand once to zero eye contact and a very awkward exchange of pleasantries).

I'm still team burn it down, but i still try to stay objective about it.

Did he have some high profile misses that I don't remember?

I think Huggins just wanted a homegrown guy who he could send all over the state to talk to alumni so that he wouldn't have to do it himself.

Yep.  why learn anything about KS if you don't have to(will be leaving in less than a year).

It'd be funny if Underwood convinced some of Frank's current staff to follow him here. I bet he'd offer Assaley an assistant coaching position.

I would like to think that he understands that he needs 'Te by now.

Brad keeps kicking ass and taking names, even after SF Austin lost two of their best players from last year's squad. I like what oscar is doing here, but I still maintain that we could have done a lot worse than confirmed stud boss Brad Underwood. Hopefully he makes his way back home some day.

Not completely sold on BW yet. If he isn't the guy, we need to give Brad a shot.

I don't see anyway in which Underwood is not our next coach (unless he somehow ends up being awful). Even if he's good enough to move up to a BCS job, it won't be at a place he vaules more than K-State.

He will need to be successful at this job and his next one because oscar is here for at least 5 more years

Yep, if oscar makes the tourney this year and finishes in the top half of the league, then he has bought himself a lot of rope. He can lasso some conference championships or make a noose, but the rope will be his to do with what he pleases.

"the rope" is not a bad nickname for oscar

Thread title has an entirely different meaning in 2014 than it did in 2012...   :Wha:

Also, I think oscar could be here long enough to break Hartman's school record for wins.

Brad's crushing it this year. He did take over for a stacked team, but still. Good for him.

He basically rebuilt the entire roster this year WS08, it looks like he has three transfers and six freshman.

I just saw they were good last year, so I assumed. It was hard enough to find their results from last year. Not a lot of info out their for the bottom cellar non-bcs conference teams.
