The official oscar Pearl talking points thread

[star seed 7]

I fully expect oscar to duplicate his first round exit.

Wow, I had forgotten how amazing this thread was, well done everyone.  Imagine how much better K-State would be at everything if we were allowed to make the decisions.  Just imagine it.  Wow.

How much fun would kat hoopz be if we had the right oscar in place? How much more vibrant would this board be? Hurts to think about.

  But wouldn't we have Doug Gottlieb (sp) if goEMAW got it's way?

[SkinnyBenny]

Doug was always a distant second to oscar Pearl, aka the real oscar.

[wetwillie]

Looks like pearl and frank will still have to ask big daddy oscar what coaching in a title game feels like.

[SkinnyBenny]

L-O-rough ridin'-MAO at thinking the big daddy oscar is Weber

oscar-
I came across a job opening the other day that I think would be perfect for you! As I am sure you are aware Kansas State University now has a vacancy for their position as head basketball coach for their men's program.
With your history of success at Milwaukee and the University of Tennessee you would be a perfect fit here. To top it all of your good buddy from your days at rocky top, John Currie, is now the Athletic Director at Kansas State.
I look forward to seeing you in purple body paint soon!

Almost recruiting oscar Pearl to KSU was probably the Magnum Opus of my message boarding career.

Question - If we had hired oscar in 2014 would this be better than oscar/Tang?

Since 14 (The earliest we could have hired him based on his email testimony)

oscar/Tang - 4 NCAA Tournaments, 1 Big12 championship, 2 elite 8's

Pearl at Auburn - 5 NCAA Tournaments, 2 SEC Championships, 1 final four

Pearl is such shitbag, in hindsight I'd take oscar Weber over him

I forget what Pearls crimes were, was it a Briles type sitch?

No it was pretty minor. Like having a barbecue for recruits and lying about it

He got a show cause for having a recruit over at his house for a BBQ and then lying to the NCAA about it....that was the main one.

There is also some thing from his early years where he ratted out Illinois for illegal recruiting (while an assistant at Iowa) and kind of got black balled from coaching jobs for a while.

So what do you mean he is a shitbag

His politics and the way he talks to his players. Worse demeanor than peak Frank Martin IMO.

[wetwillie]

Oh, he is a MAGA. I can look the other way for a Final Four.

I wonder what Snyders Politics were? I mean I'm pretty sure I can guess but I don't think he ever made any statements or support for one side or another.  The only PSA's I can remember him doing is the "Dont take random prescription drugs".

I would imagine I am at odds with most of the prominent coaches KSU has had since I was a Frosh in 97. Just entertain me. I don’t need them to inform any other part of life.

strongly agree!  a trip to the FF justifies all in my book and every big time HC is an overly competitive bad person at a minimum

I'm 99.9999999% sure rusty doesn't have an issue with who oscar Pearl voted for, per se. The issue for rusty and for me is that we know who oscar Pearl voted for, and what oscar Pearl thinks about Palestinians, and what he thinks about the lgtbq community, he's comfortably tweeted and spoken about these things. He sucks and I couldn't imagine riding for this dude for a final four. Hard pass.

I know what my king thinks about at least one of these issues, I had to look hard to find it. I couldn't imagine the backlash he would get if he publicly spoke about it. oscar Pearl just gets to say whatever the hell he wants to.
