$1.5 million buyout for someone like John Currie seems extremely excessive. When I mean someone like John Currie I mean someone still young and at a school like K-State. I would think that would have greatly limited his options and his agent would be more shrewd than that.

1.5m is what we had to pay to fire him.  $175K is what he had to pay to go elsewhere.  It's Section 14 of the original agreement and never got amended.

Read.  We need a draft Tom movement like we did for brad.  With Currie gone, they might listen.

He also mentioned that Northwestern coach Chris Collins sent Riley a powerful text about his dad, former NBA coach Doug Collins, getting fired by the Bulls in 1989 while Chris Collins was in high school. “Going through that helped prepare him and make him the man he is now and the position that he is in now,” Crean said the text read. “That. Is. Strong.”

Oh, the plight of teenage sons of fired millionaires.

So, are you all saying keep Oscar because Crean's kid cried?  We are all crying over the possibility of more years of mediOscarity.   The SI article says crean wants to go to a place with good facilities, good fans, a town he can get involved in, and no ahole administrator.  He wants to coach next year, probably power 5 school.  Only such school open Okiestate that seems to want Gottlips.

I don't want Crean because he sucks but his story about his son was a very funny egomaniac coach story.

Tho, I shouldn't worry about Crean, because he has way too big of an ego to be in little old Manhattan under the shadow of Bill Self.  Now way he takes the KSU job even if it was offered.

I don't get what happened at Indiana.   He rebuilt the thing from a really low point and had it rolling and then just tanked. i don't think it's similar to oscar at all.

Don't insult Tom Crean by comparing him to Frank Martin who is doing a terrific job this year. You know, I went back and rewatched that Butler game here recently. Denis Clemente and others played like they were half dead in that game while Rodney McGruder hardly saw the light of day in that game. Denis clanked key FT after key FT because of, Frank-ly, being tired. Why was he tired? Oh, because they played a double OT game against a bunch of studs from Xavier. That couldn't be helped...or could it. Hey, I have an idea, DON'T PLAY CHRIS MERIWEATHER and have him foul a guy at the 3 pt line at the buzzer! Granted, I digress, but please....Tom Crean has been there done that when it comes to Final Fours.

man is it fun not to be banned by gpc anymore. missed that place.

Year 6 is gonna be the most entertaining yet.  With almost everyone on board as early as the first lol open gym, kstatembb 17-18 has the opportunity to be the most hated team in the history of the world, and it's not one to be taken lightly.

I like Frank, I don't share the sycophantic love of Frank that so many on here have.   So I'll say that it's absolutely true that Frank buried extremely capable and much-needed depth for extremely weird and maniacal reasons at times, and that point was proven with several players once he was gone.   FFS, guys who turned out to be good players for effing oscar Weber couldn't even fart and Frank yanked them from the game.

Frank has changed as a coach.  Not too long ago SC suspended him for a sideline tirade.  He has learned from this.  I am tired of the old girlfriend syndrome many still have for Frank.  For KState he is in our history; this chicken is dead, stewed, eaten, and sent to the sewage plant.  So do we hold a new coach to a Martin standard or a Oscar standard.  Not to a personality standard for either, but results standard yes.  IU redassfans wanted Crean to be Knight.  Dumb bastards lost a good coach.  Crean would be a hell of a lot better than Weber.

I think as a previous post stated - something is afoot.  Can anyone find anything recently saying the ADministration has praised Weber.
