Coaching update
« on: March 09, 2012, 12:23:38 PM »
Hey K-State fans, I'm not here to troll your board, just wanted to let you know that Mike Thomas has already contacted Frank Martin about replacing Coach Weber.  The two sides have agreed to meet and talk after Kansas State's appearance in the NCAA tournament concludes.  Right now, Thomas' list includes Martin, Shaka Smart, and Anthony Grant. 

I know programs like yours are used to getting stepped on as up and comers make their way to the national stage, but think of it as a good move for a coach that has done a lot for your program, if Martin chooses to move on.

This isn't rumor mongering by me, if you search the Scout network you'll find that I'm not a troll, and my information is very reliable.  Just passing along information I would like to have if I was a fan of a school in a similar position.

Good Luck next weekend and I'll update you as more information makes it my way.

Well...

I'd still say 10% or less.

But Frank would be dumb not to at least listen.

Of course Currie would be more dumb to not do what he can to keep him.

JMHO.

the problem is that currie can't compete with Big 10 $$, if Illinois wants him, they get him.

as much as I've been a Frank antagonist over the years, I'd certainly rather have him than not.

Frank is never going to leave us, idiots.  Especially not for a has-been program like Illinois.

I've never even heard of your school, so I doubt it exists. 

If you update us anymore, I will personally light your tires on fire and laugh (OUT LOUD) with my bros.

I'm sure they have contacted anyone who has made a low program into a successful program.  Right now the Illini program is more like:

Anyways, thanks for the heads up.  Also, just curious, if Weber is already fired, who will be coaching Illinois in the CBE?
