I love Mike Jarvis. That being said Al Sharpton is a better fit for our fanbase. They thought Ron Prince was uppity and he was from Junction rough ridin' City. I couldn't imagine the backlash the first time K-State fans heard Jarvis talk.

I couldn't imagine the backlash the first time K-State fans heard Jarvis talk.Wow, didn't realize he won his league this year. Only knock for me is he's never left the east coast - other than that he's great. And the firing/probation thing probably eliminates him more than his well-spokenness.What about Jamie Dixon or Steve Lavin? Lavin benefited from a ridiculously experienced team last year but recruited his balls off and should be pretty good soon. Also landed DeAngelo Harrison who Frank refused to try to recruit. Dixon may want to get out while the gettin's good and work his way back west.
Whoa... I just had an epiphany. K-State should hire Stan Heath from South Florida. Dude is a solid recruiter, and he gets his teams to play defense like their hair is on fire, similar to Frank. Would take.
OK, so I was catching up on this thread, and maybe I was getting a little tired, but I swear I saw someone (Beems?) say "Frank = Jank"......Did that really get posted? Parody post or serious?

Parody post or serious?Frank was Jank five years ago without the head coaching experience. Serious.

If he could bring the number 2 draft pick and guarantee another NBA'er I may reconsider this stance.

I mean if he can't come close to finishing higher than third in the Valley how can we expect him to do anything similar in the Big 12?

Oh, and mich has said the most important thing in this entire thread, bar none:An unknown commodity > known mediocre commodity

If he could bring the number 2 draft pick and guarantee another NBA'er I may reconsider this stance.That's why my list would be (1) Buzz Williams (2) Tad Boyle (3) Stan Heath (4) Tim Jankovich. I think Jank would be able to recruit at a higher level once he was at a BCS school. I mean Gonzaga has been great over the past 10-15 years, and they still have a tough time signing 4-star talent. It's tough to recruit at those lower tier programs. Plus you'd have to think Jank could upgrade his assistants at a program like K-State as well. Where would Frank be right now if he didn't have Delonte?
If we were going to make a big hire, something would of been leaked with a title like "sources say Kruger to leave OU, man Wildcats" or "Buzz in talks with Kstate, likely to leave"Let's face it, we're promoting Unds, we will all cry a little bit.
