Looking back the protest was really embarrassing.  Wish I hadn't been a part of it, but i was young and angsty and horned up for k-state sports.

That passion fueled K-State basketball under Frank, it is absolutely a missing piece right now.

I am willing to take any heat for anything I posted about oscar.  I don't think I was unreasonable.  I was pessimistic and unhappy with the hire from the start, but that doesn't make me responsible for any games we lost.

I believe oscar is good guy and we he wanted to win (and win in a way he felt was right), but there was a reason we was fired by Illinois and there was a reason we was effectively fired by KSU.  He's not a victim here. He has earned millions upon millions of dollars, but his failures are his own.

Yep. Regardless of who we hire I can say with confidence I’ll pay way more attention to KSU basketball than I probably have in at least 5 years.

oscar lost in the 1st round in kansas sodding city as a 4 seed to la salle (?) with this roster:

JO
angel
spracs
shane
hot rod
gip
nino
martavious

I can't believe he won a conference title with that team. I honestly think that was his greatest accomplishment in his coaching career. There is absolutely no way Frank wins the Big 12 with that collection of players and he wouldn't have been expected to.

yeah of course it was amazing. it had been 8 years since anybody besides Texas had even tied KU for the conference title. so yeah you needed to bring some talent to win it.
that said, the game referenced in my post is still absolutely infuriating. that should have been a party

JO's minutes were ridiculous.  He was dominating that game.  The biggest difference between P5 and a mid-major is usually size and we wasted it.

He's actually a decent coach but wouldn't exactly move the needle.

Not a whole lot of elite but a bunch of guys who knew their roles and played hard.  They were consistent enough to beat the bottom of the conference every time out which made the LaSalle loss that much stranger.

He just dragged gE! :lol:

Question: "Do you ever feel like you didn't get a fair shake from day 1 by some of the fans"

Coach: "There was definitely a pocket of fans that didn't want me here from day 1. They protested when I arrived and wanted Doug Gottlieb or something crazy like that. K-State is a really great place, but I feel this pocket of fans are hurting K-State more than they're helping them". :love: :love:

But what if it’s Brad?!?!?
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
