Nino and Doc - Didn't have what it took

[0.42]

how can you imagine this guy not being his own boss? Like he needs a head coach to tell him to go out on the court and smash faces in.

Frank was in the process of destroying what had been somewhat built at K-State, that's why he was looking to jettison K-State just as quickly as he possibly could . . . as I've said before, he deserves an A+ for his conceptulization and presentation of his martyr complex.

This thread has nothing to do with Frank.

Don't be a dumbass cRusty.

No, YOU don't be a dumbass. You know this thread is completely different if we hadn't hired a piece of crap coach.

Most of the other options would have been even bigger pieces of crap . . . and this thread is all about Frank Martin.   

Not all of them.  We hire Gottlieb and I have my theoretical giant Gottlieb head hanging up on the wall of my office instead of last year's 4-Frank schedule poster.  Still not sure when that's coming down or if a new one will go up.

But most hires of the Gottlieb type end in utter failure.  I am reminded of when Clyde Drexler got hired at Houston.   Guys like that get coaching jobs, and they know in the back of their minds that if it doesn't work out they have a bunch of fall back positions, most of them of the cushy variety.   Not as an assistant coach who has to pile up the frequent flier miles recruiting at every backwater AAU tourney.

Disagree, but the point anyway is that we're all partying right now with huge emawboners in a giant thread about the media day articles that would've been written yesterday had Gottlieb been hired.

this is either going to be a great or horrible bbs'ing bball season. 

i can't imagine it being anything but great.

Kent Wien 4 board president.

great = entertaining.  i dare you to disagree.  completely dare you.  i do.

I'm writing you in whether you want to run or not, and we're going to win this rough ridin' thing.  You know how I know you're the right man for the job?  Because you don't want it.

Bob Brenly, but adorable.

Not sure why people are butthurt. Not having a head coach is going to be both innovative and entertaining. It's so much better than our last colossal dork of a coach, too.

welcome to team eff both guys 42. it's now a team of 2. we get to be butthurt both ways. 

I've been on that team for a few months now

same here, crap. good grief, sitting here  in our jersey's being ignored by steve douche.

clams, you're cool. rusty, STILL NOPE!

lol. you only put clams on the team because he's tall and you still need players. not because he deserves it and we all know it.

TC?  Looks like the joke's on Steve Dave here.

Look at the FrankTucks melting down.

Still pining for a coach who never had any intention of staying at K-State beyond 4 or 5 years.

see this is the problem with people like you here and on the politics board.  You don't understand that just because you don't like one option, it doesn't automatically mean you like the other option.  Also if you had the stones to critically examine your option, you would see it sucks too.

he knows that, the difference is that his ass isn't bleeding all over this board.

[The Whale]

But Spradling enjoyed the experience all the same. Not just because the new offense built up his endurance, allows players more freedom and he thinks the Wildcats are close to mastering it, either.

Thanks for trying hard on defense last year! < sarcastic clap >

Did you know: Webber has the least wins of any KSU coach in history!*

Sheesh, this guy!

i don't understand that take at all.  imagine the myriad of topics we'll have to talk about including but not limited to, how bad our offense is, how unathletic our guys look, coaching search master thread, after all of this and we still rolled texas, what's wrong with angel?, what's wrong with JO?, what's wrong with McOrebs?, CHET!, how did ISU beat us again? etc, etc.

Yep and threads just like this have existed the previous 5 years, the difference this year is that instead of discussing the actual topic at hand, like how soft doc is, there will be about 4 people consistently deflecting.  These people have trauma because the last guy left and instead of looking back at what we had with joy & at the same time be happy for the guy who left and gave himself a fresh start, they're still dealing with being left.  This manifests itself by telling others that they are not over it when in fact it is these four posters that are waiting for that guy to walk back into the door and hug them and tell them it isn't their fault.  It's easier for these four or so to project anger to deal with their hurt.  These four or so posters need to see a shrink or find a better way to deal with being the children of divorce so the rest of us can move on too.

There's no way that this goEMAW bball board offseason hasn't been a hundred times more fun than it would have been if Frank was still coach.  The same will be true once the season starts.

On the butthurt issue:  dax is butthurt his normal amount while others are off the charts butthurt compared to their usual selves.

Can you imagine what it's going to be like with JO and Rodney directing this team without having to look to the bench for directions from anyone? It's just going to be incredible to watch.

No, I understand all the options, and I understand that most of the options were either nothing but goEMAW never gonna happen wet dream fantasies or total reaches or worse options than what we got.

I surprisingly agree with this post 


also LOL at Clam's worthless posting, I can't believe the pot got stirred up that well.  It was like blending yogurt with fruit chunks perfectly in the first spoonful well.

I think this is a good post...but it's over my head.
