Currie decided frank was simply not worth the trouble (in curries opinion) of keeping around. If it was football, frank would have been on a much longer leash. Currie didn't do a thing to take care of frank beyond the absolutely necessary for a long period of time, basically begging him to take a job elsewhere. Currie made a simple risk/reward assessment, and basketball wasn't worth the "risk" (maybe a better word is headache). Most on here are already of course aware of all this, I just post it on response to the people who keep repeating the "frank left the first opportunity he had". This is true, but there were clear reasons forcing his hand. You could also even argue that frank deserved it. Both guys are ridiculously stubborn and came off as rough ridin' assholes in the whole situation. These characteristics are not surprising considering their respective professions, success, and personalities. It was simply not a relationship that was going to last. And it's perfectly reasonable to hate on both men.
