How many wins do you think Fincher was going to be worth..... 1.5, 1. It really isn't that big of a loss.

0.

look, i'd prefer it if kstate's coach thought he could recruit players both capable of playing big 12 bball and qualifying, but he knows his staff better than i do; if they can't, they can't. of the two, i'm happy when he chooses qualifying risks over ability risks.

What if it looks like he chose neither?

Did Weber need another paycheck this bad or does he just hate K-State for beating Keady's best team? I mean other than coaching Frank's players it's obvious he has no appetite for the job or the ability to do it.

oscar is in it for the validation and that alone. He should have quit after coy and titletown, told everybody to get mumped, he was great all along, puds at Illinois didn't know jack, ceeya, blazed off into the sunset, etc. Instead he's going to prove his mediocrity all over again (most likely). Tragic stuff.

Definitely tragic, unfortunately true.

God Bless Mr. Bread, may we be tough enough to handle the wisdom he is imparting.

There is a hurricane coming and it is actually worse than I feared. Most of K-State has no idea what is about to hit them this year.

Is mediocrity the right word? How about absolute failure and never making it to a tournament again?

Accurate.

Sadly, all he is going to validate two things -- that he can have success with another coach's players (which was already conceded) and that he's an absolute failure in maintaining a program (which wasn't totally conceded but well be very soon).

how long until we have a rebirth again? will it happen again?

oscar Pearl.

So, a friend (ITK posters know who I am talking about) was at Dick Vitales Cancer fundraiser last month in FLA...had a long talk w/ oscar Pearl. oscar Pearl said that if John Currie were still @ Tenn, he'd still be the head coach of Tenn.

So I think there is hope

OK. And we'd want to hire a guy on the NCAA's "show cause" list for what reason? Haven't we discussed this already?

That said, it's late and I'm retiring for the night. Looking forward to resuming this discussion tomorrow...or not.

So Brooks to SMU? We can't get Howard and now lose a coach to replace him. Well played lizard lips.

AB3 is being forced out so Kim English can take the job.

Twitter would be my guess.

BigJKU316 ?@BigJKU316 10h

@JasonKingESPN Why would SMU be able to take away a BCS assistant? Does not add up...

Jason King ?@JasonKingESPN 10h

@BigJKU316 $$ and the chance to work for a Hall of Famer.
