Now that it's becoming clearer that the NCAA has no intention of allowing Bill Self to coach in college basketball for the foreseeable future, it's time to turn our sights toward the next regime.

Who do you guys got?

Pete · « **Reply #1 on:** May 07, 2020, 05:50:11 PM »

I'll vote with my heart.

I had a few classes in grad school with him. Man, was he prepared!

By some miracle, Danny Manning got tons of free time.

UNPOPULAR OPINION: I could be talked into Scott Pollard.

bubbles4ksu · « **Reply #7 on:** May 07, 2020, 06:32:37 PM »

pollard has a bit of dirt because he's an open pot smoker and because he let the morrises use his car to take some 15yr old girls around lawrence but i could be talked into seeing him join coach hass on the sidelines as well

oscar has experience in taking over for Seff.

Long is a wildcard, he might somehow eff this up. I think they can basically have any non blue blood coach they want.

Bring back Jacque! (serious suggestion)

EMAWzifried · « **Reply #14 on:** May 08, 2020, 11:04:26 AM »

Beilein. Known for being squeaky clean. KU could stomach that for the few years he'd have before he retired as a transition to the next dirty coach.

if that is your criteria, then oscar is clearly their guy

Saw a poll of college coaches picking the coach most likely not to cheat. Oscar was in the top 10, but Beilein won by a mile. He's also doesn't finish last in his conference.

I would absolutely lose my crap.

All this oscar pearl talk reminded me of when he responded to a random email I sent him after frank left.

oscar-

I came across a job opening the other day that I think would be perfect for you! As I am sure you are aware Kansas State University now has a vacancy for their position as head basketball coach for their men's program.

With your history of success at Milwaukee and the University of Tennessee you would be a perfect fit here. To top it all of your good buddy from your days at rocky top, John Currie, is now the Athletic Director at Kansas State.

I look forward to seeing you in purple body paint soon!

Yeah, he had some cush VP job with them while serving his show cause.

Trim · « **Reply #22 on:** May 08, 2020, 04:13:33 PM »

ben ji, never think that just because clams and I once didn't want to share a cab with you, that you're not a hero.

If I've mixed up you and benja again or someone else entirely, never mind.

Just think how butthurt the taters would be if ku hired oscar weber, probably worth it just for the kitten tears.

Hell, I'll just float who we are all thinking ... Frank.
