So, did 'Te just voluntarily take (at least) a 120k paycut or did Frank do what he does best and show him the door?  Would be great to include a rotating staff with our rotating roster.

half a mill should get a pretty good aau guy with connections to a really good soon to be soph.

bonus should be that it is a team we haven't pissed off yet

I think Hill took the paycut because
A) Parts of our fanbase were growing impatient with his recruiting
B) Maryland is higher profile for a future head coach gig (more money in long run)
C) He can recruit better there to help his stock

Regardless, he can up and eff off

I'm just excited for the threads that someone here will absolutely make about all the 4 and 5* recruits he's pulling in at Maryland and pretend like he would be doing that here.

Hill was a part of some great things.  Let's part ways with his handsome mustache with respect.  He is doing us a favor.

FP, TC, etc.

seriously though, we didn't make him the highest paid assistant in all of college basketball to recruit a team full of 3 stars.  thanks for the first few years, but you're not really worth 300k anymore.

agree with the premise of having a rotating door on these types of recruiters.  maybe three years or so.  once they lose their AAU influence with the premier recruits, send them back to AAU land and pick up the latest guy who can bring in the big prospects in.

I agree with Limestone.  Can't we handle this with the class and respect expected of a bunch of young wealthy athletics supporters?  Hill leaving is in no way a negative for us.

I wish Pat Knight had known of this potential opening on our staff before he took that gig at Lamar.  He would have been here in a heartbeat.   :bang:


Oh god no, Dalonte much better than Knight.

I don't understand why so many haters in regards to Dalonte. The guy was basically part of the Huggs/Frank/Beas package that brought us back. If I thought any of you were anti-Dalonte because of the absurd notion that an asst. basketball coach gets paid this much by a public university, then I'd understand. But, I think it is clear that 90% of this board remains in the "eff it, I just want to win" camp. So, I assume many of you just like to hate, hate, hate, hate....

The Dalonte hire and salary was absolutely worth it.  He brought in Beasley, Dom, Wally, and Rodney, all of whom contributed significantly to the revival of our program.

That being said, he's not delivering anymore.  Time to trade him in for the newer model of the same car.

Love Jack Harry asking Frank if he would make a counter offer. Frank said yeah, but not what. I'm thinking a pay cut.

we may have to allow him to retain a higher percentage of his salary, although that could have disastrous effects on recruiting.  i'm afraid it looks like a frying pan/fire conundrum.

Am I wrong in saying that if Hill leaves KSU that it isn't really that big of a deal?

Nope I dont believe it is that big of a deal either.  We can get someone else to bring in 3star players as well.

hill leaving won't be that big of a deal.  but when he starts getting kids from dca to go to maryland, the logical conclusion of why that would happen will/should be.

if people actually melt down over him being able to get DC kids to stay home and go to Maryland when he couldn't get them to come to K-State, they're Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

He will get kids to go there and Turg can't possible rack up a body count higher than (Ron Anderson, Dominique Sutton, Wally Judge) Frank.
