Summer 2012. K-State Basketball Coach Frank Martin stands on the balcony over looking K-State's palatial new basketball training facility. Below him the Frank Martin father-son basketball camp is underway on the shiny new floors of the dual court facility with retractable glass dividing wall. Moments later athletic director John Currie walks up to Martin, places his elbows on the railing and looks out over the gathering of sweating sons and dads.
Frank: Looks pretty good huh John? But some of those dads are really struggling.
Currie: Yeah, hope we don't have to haul them into that state of the art training room we just built in this place. (following the action below) Oh, have they got your new 65 inch flat screen installed in your office now Frank? If so, I bet those kids would love to go up there and play a little X-box (sarcastic smile), or maybe you can let them play that on that upgraded projection system we got you in the film room.
Frank: That's not a bad idea John, the new screen is great, and I love the surround sound in our film room.
Currie: (still staring down at the comings and goings below) You know, nothing makes me happier than to pay to cool this place all summer long for father son camps and some pick up games, really gets you in the heart you know what I'm sayin (still looking below).
Frank: (pulling himself upright from the railing, Frank stare): What are you tryin to say John?
Currie: I’m just sayin it’s great that these families and are our current players have such a fantastic place to call their summer basketball home. I’d hate to think (putting fingers in air) “outsiders” like Elite prospects might be brought in here to take up space and of course your time.
Frank: (intense Frank stare) I don’t think I like your tone John.
Currie: (walking away) Better get back to your father son camp Frank.
