I don't think Frank cares if there is an AD in place. If he's willing to look past the cacty University/fan support, why the eff would he care about the AD?

I do question whether Miami will feel compelled to move on a basketball hire without first filling the AD spot.

It has been over a month since their AD spot was vacated. You have to wonder how long the process will take for the basketball had coach replacement. I guess, not that it really matters though, it gives them longer to get their moeny people together.

I'm not 100% convinced that Shalalalala would hire him. If the AD submitted his name, and the New Times stuff came to her attention, she's going to veto him on the spot given what we 'think' we know about her. Also, given his reputation as a 'fiery' and intense sideline coach, I'm thinking will hurt him as well. Like others have said, she vetoed Leach. Frank is a household name in college basketball, but the reason he is famous to some is why he's infamous to others. There are a lot of programs, the "U" being one of them, that may shy away from it. Remember that Miami is a private school that fancies themselves to be a lot more academic than they really are. They may not want a ranting and raving coach to be the face of one of their most public programs.

Also, as much as we don't care, Frank's name is tied in with Shakey, the CLA guys, etc. down in Miami. He's kind of associated with all of that craziness that the New Times keeps digging up, and I'm guessing the AD won't be strong enough to fight for him. They'll go with the search firm and path of least resistance.

Frank lobbying for the job through the national media, or trying to get Art and Shakey to keep saying things like, "If Miami did this, and Miami did that, etc." are things he'd do regardless to try and get a pay bump here if he wasn't interested in the job. Like I said earlier in the thread, this was his GOLDEN opportunity to get a big extension (or a gig down there), and it would appear that Miami isn't biting at all. Currie won't extend him without someone actually coming at him, so the longer this drags out, the longer it would appear that they really are moving in a different direction, and he won't get a dime out if what should have been his big windfall.

April 13th... this coming Wednesday begins the late signing period. If Angel faxes in an LOI we are . If he doesn't fax one in after Friday we are .

Frank's smart enough to tell him to wait

Should we email the Deadspin strip club article to Shalalallalala?

Well look at that, Jason King can tweet while he's rimming Lew Perkins. That's talent.

No, King is butt hurt about how many times we owned him when he was the horrible KU beat writer.

He's really a pathetic hack, and it has nothing to do with his recent bouts of idiocy. He's just a really, really stupid person.

Damn, Jason REALLY wants Frank out of this conference.

Heard Jason King on the radio...total dipshit. Ignorant. Would be nice if some writers would actually do some research before they start spouting crap.

Everything that comes out of Baylor deserves nothing but our utmost scorn. King is just an extension of this.

I'm 70/30 he's gone.

It's obvious he's actively lobbying for the job behind the scenes and I do think there is something to the fact that he has broken off all communication with local media.

The only question in my mind is if the Miami idiots are smart enough to extend the offer. At this point, I don't even think it's about money. I think he'd go even for a sizeable paycut when you take into account the tax situation in Florida.

Please post elsewhere.

I try and never miss an opportunity to drag out this 2008 response to one of his articles on Beasley:

Quote

actually, the beasley's do have a hummer. that wasn't made up. just because Michael drives a Tahoe doesn't mean his mother doesn't drive a hummer or that his brother doesn't drive one. i promise you: it's true.

as far as jason's seats at bramlage being downgraded ... I don't think he'd mind. after this season there won't be much reason to go back there anyway.

i promise you: it's true.

won't be much reason to go back there anyway

Those lines really should be rehashed to him.

He emailed me in response to some comment on one of his articles about Beasley's hummer. Wish I remembered the actual comment that got a response. Had something to do with Whitlock being escorted to his new, shitty seat in Bramlage after that article.

j rake · « **Reply #1548 on:** April 08, 2011, 02:41:58 PM »

I should point out that Meek, much like J Mart, is a home run hitter. All the great ones are. He doesn't waste his time with bunt singles and rinky dink opposite field hits. When there's a big story, Meek will have it.

How many stories of significance has anyone other than Meek and GPC broken on the K-State beat since J Mart left?

Miami: Haith was a surprise choice at Missouri, leaving behind some serious talent in Reggie Johnson inside and Durand Scott on the perimeter. Miami isn't going to go after hometown coach Frank Martin of Kansas State. Former BC coach Al Skinner makes sense, given his previous success in the ACC, but it's unclear what direction the Canes will go at this juncture. Might Florida Atlantic's Mike Jarvis get another shot in a big-time conference?
