I went to "Brackfest" this morning.  This is a breakfast benefit where proceeds went to KU Med concussion research.  The guest panel was Kietzman, Dave Armstrong, Greg Gurley, and Conner Teahan.  A question was asked about how long oscar would last at K-State.  Armstrong and Gurley both praised oscar and the job he did this year.  Armstrong went as far as saying this might have been his best coaching year he has ever had and he should be around for a few more years. 

They are on the #Bruceneedsmoretime bandwagon.

They want him around for the same reason we wanted them to keep Turner and Weis around. Their version of #TSC

yeah, an endorsement from 2 guys on the KU payroll is just what the KState brain trust likes to hear

Any rumors of players transferring out?  This would help our cause.

The Western Union thing wouldn't make oscar quit like it made Frank quit. oscar would just throw the player under the bus and go along with whatever Currie thinks is best.

Tonight's K-State basketball coaching Did you know?

Everyone remembers the tenures of Altman and Asbury mostly as negative.

YET!

Neither went back to back years without at least making the NIT.

Altman went none-NIT-NCAA-NIT
Asbury went none-NCAA-none-NIT-NIT-none

It wasn't until Wooly followed Asbury with none (and then none-none-none-none-none) that we saw the first coach go multiple years without postseason appearances since the last 4 years of Hartman.

Now oscar has done it again.

still. oscar got handed a program that hadn't missed the NIT/NCAA in 6yrs and in 4 yrs he's missed it twice.  And in those 6 years the program won at least one post season game - oscar hasn't won any.

I just watched the 30-for-30 on Boston College.  Do you think any of those conference tournaments were fixed and those teams intentionally went to the NIT?  I mean, who could know, but probably.

This is relatively new, I think it happened when the NCAA took over the NIT five years or so ago.

True, but the expansion of the NCAA tournament mitigates that a little bit.

I've long said that's a much better indicator of the general direction and strength of a program than postseason invites and results.

And this season SMU Louisville and LSU didn't play in the postseason, which all 3 would have been invited over us which even opened up 3 more spots this year that we couldn't get into.
