Dalonte

[wetwillie]

Why should I care that Turd is paying Hill $300K?

Apparently you're quite upset about it.

. . . . and what exactly does "turg is a huge respect" mean. 

i was asking if you think Turgeon is out of his mind stupid for hiring our worthless dried up lazy hasn't recruited anyone since 2007 assistant coach. I mean why would you pay someone 300k who hasn't even sniffed a 4 star recruit since rod commited four years ago? I guess all the recruiting types who think it was a monster move are respected as well.

[sonofdaxjones]

Well if that wasn't a response straight out of Powertardville.

Apparently Wet Willie . . . u are mad.

Nick Wright tweeted earlier today that losing Dalonte was HUGE for KSU. 

He had Cassidy on earlier.  Did anyone hear if Cassidy confirmed the horrific perdicament this has put KSU basketball in?

[CNS]

This is no where near as bad for KSU as it is good for Maryland.

oh, man. frank just played turg like a plantain.

[j-von]

oh, man. frank just played turg like a plantain.

Agreed. Frank has to be pretty ecstatic that he gets to dump this loser.  'Te sucked big time.

I say we give frank 200 of te's 500k if he can explain this concept to bill.   

[Fuktard]

I'm not sure who the "best" recruiter in the country is, but i would have a hard time believing that $500K (420+80 bonus) per wouldn't get them to KSU.  For christ's sake, Maryland's ENTIRE assitant coaching staff was making $230K combined.  Dalonte wasn't performing to his salary level...period.

'te just left that salary for far less, Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

It's Fuktard, asswipe.  and who gives a crap if he left for less money, contrary to popular opinion, some people ARE motivated by money.

[catzacker]

so w/ regard to the "someone like figgs" things, who has figgs been responsible for getting to set foot at ksu? 

russell (T.I.P.)
gipson
jones
myles?

excuse me if I don't punch my clown with anticipation for the next figgs.

I think 'Te will bring in good recruits to Maryland.  He is in an area where he is known better and has better connections.  He is selling players on a team with a pretty good recent history that is right down the street.  It'll be a lot easier than selling kids on heading to some city they've never heard of in Kansas.  Not to mention, I'd imagine Frank had just as much to do with DCA drying up, between his coaching style and player transfers.

I'm going to laugh when 'Te brings in badass recruits to Maryland and people start getting jealous thinking he would've done the same thing here

[massofcatfan]

oh, man. frank just played turg like a plantain.

I googled "plantain," but still have no idea what this means.    I do like the sound of it!

[Dr Rick Daris]

dalonte probably wasn't going to be bringing in much over the next few years anyway and my guess is that he and frank's relationship had somewhat run it's course. it's not like frank hired the guy to begin with and it was a somewhat odd package deal with the two were paired together initially almost like co-coaches.

probably time to move on and see what happens. the minus is that it probably confirms that frank was the issue in lack of dca attention over the past couple of years and that's sad. hopefully try to get a guy with some kind of pull somewhere else and try not to f that up as well i guess.

[jtksu]

The dude doesn't seem to do much actual coaching and his recruiting has sucked balls lately so I say:  "eff him."

ok. and? 

[yoga-like_abana]

eff You Miami, why couldn't you have just hired Frank.

[michigancat]

I've been pretty critical of Frank's recruiting, but I blame the Joel Bell thing for the DCA suckiness more than anything.

if it was all joel bell, then why would turgeon seek out dalonte?

god damnit. stop being so nice and break apart and kill me for my previous breakdown.

also, if the joel thing is legit (yes/prob?) then why does it just affect frank and ksu and not dalonte? or does it affect all and if so, then why would turg go and get dalonte? seems weird. no? frank has to be to blame in this scenario right? correct/incorrect?

 

[ChiComCat]

I blame Frank mostly but think a number of people mumped the pipeline up.  Dalonte will be fine in Maryland, but he was not doing 400K worth of work for KSU anymore.  He wasn't going to succeed here, but he more than likely will there.  Will be a good fit for him and good move for both teams.

[sys]

then why does it just affect frank and ksu and not dalonte?

i can't explain the mind of curtis malone.  but i can see that the exact same thing happened with cox/jt3 at g'town/rutgers.  the human mind is hardwired to seek and identify patterns, explanations are secondary.

[pissclams]

-i'll try to explain the mind of curtis malone:  money talks, bullshit walks

[chum1]

frank actually informed turg about malone, the money, and the bullshit.

[GetVocalwithCurt]

We need to hire Sidney Lowe as an assistant.
