Are people trying to convince themselves Jank would be ok as our next head basketball coach?

Jesus rough ridin' Christ, guys. Just because we struck out with the hot blonde doesn't mean we have to go home with the brunette transvestite with AIDS because he says he has condoms and it's been a while since we got some.

Know that no matter how things bad get for kstatesports, there'll always be a corresponding catzacker post that almost makes it all worth it.

Our fans have always had a weird thing for Jank. At least with Henson you're not sure if he sucks. I mean, Jank is oscar without any of the success. If he chose to accept shitty jobs, then he showed a great lack of judgement. Which is not an awesome quality in a coach. I don't think spending time with Larry Brown makes you a great coach, it just gives you an opportunity to pick up some things from a legend. Those things don't necessarily bridge the gap between bad coach and good coach.

Get a good administration in place and they'll find an adequate coach.

It all feels worthless until that happens. 

There's no point in even speculating what we should do because even the no brainer decisions seem like quantum physics to these guys.

I need to apologize to wetwillie. It's moronic and irrational to think you could learn more from Larry Brown after you've been coaching for 30 years than you would from basketball greats like Dana Altman, Bob Weltlich, and Boyd Grant when you're in your twenties. Again I'm deeply sorry.

I believe Jank's contract makes him the HC when Brown leaves, which may very well be pretty soon.

John Currie gets WAY too much credit for his financial prowess.

When Currie became our AD, KState athletics was the equivalent of a single parent with 7 kids, $7 large in debt due to an absentee spouse's gambling debts, living in a trailer in a park located top-dead-center in tornado alley.  Krause, Prince, and Wefald were, in that order, impregnator, tornado, and impregnatee.

Enter Texas and Oklahoma threatening to leave the conference.

BOOM! Cash aplenty for all now-10 Big 12 schools! 

Every school in the conference has been awash in cash since the break-up threat occurred.  Think about it...have any Big 12 AD's been fired?

I rest my case. Stop giving Currie credit he did not earn. Fire John Currie.

Yes he's the hciw. I have no idea why a reputable program like SMU would take the word of a hall of fame coach when rando people can just evaluate him based on him being .500 at North Texas twenty years ago. Games they incidentally never saw him coach.

Just something to think about. And...if KSU had any interest in bringing Tim back, why haven't we heard about it?

No one mentioned K-State having interest in him. Good link though I liked this passage

Quote
On the one hand, he had an Illinois State team returning that was capable of challenging Creighton and Wichita State next season after making the Valley title game and the NIT second round last season. On the other hand, he had the promise of a hefty raise and an opportunity to one day coach in the Big East after learning under a Hall of Fame coach for a few years.

I'm sure people who's greatest exposure to him is reading his wiki page when they haven't thought of him in years have a much better grasp of his credentials though.

I guess Eddie Sutton and Bill Self didn't rub off on him?

Eddie Sutton isn't nearly the coach that Self and Brown are. I'm guessing he probably learned quite a bit from Bill Self given that he was actually pretty decent at Illinois State. Will you admit that before bones posted that link you assumed he was fired from ISU?

I agree that there is some merit in having a K-State connection. It was certainly a draw for me for Brad, I won't lie.

But remove the K-State connection from Jank and I guarantee most of this board would go full #BID if he was hired at K-State given his resume.

Your comment about reading wikis stung me pretty good....lol.  I am probably undervaluing Browns ability to raise the level of coaching of his assistants.
