Remember when Roy left KU...
« on: March 27, 2012, 03:03:17 PM »
...and we all thought his replacement would never be able to do better?  Well, the same situation can be applied here.  K-State can do better than Frank.  The question is will they?  Tad Boyle owned the sh*t out of Frank in his one year in the Big 12.  He lead a meh Colorado team to a Pac 12 title and beat a pretty good UNLV team in the first round of the NCAA tournament.  A guy like that could do big things at K-State.

The bottom line is you can't expect K-State to hire another Frank.  There's only one Frank out there.  When KU first hired Bill Self, I had a hard time accepting the fact that he wasn't Roy.  Then he won a few Big 12 titles, clownsuited Roy in the Final Four, and won a national title.  Be patient, 'cat fans.  Currie just might surprise you guys and hire a good coach.
