Re: stats that bring clarity for today ...

Most people don't understand what a monumental task Dimel's undertaking at UTEP. And, it could get even harder if their conference eventually falls apart.

Re: Who’s the next coach

Supposedly - and this very well may be a tall tale - Urick (or, reps acting on his behalf - not sure) was sent to Chicago to offer a then-princely sum to Tim Floyd to bail on the Chicago Bulls. Instead, Urick came back with Wooly because Tex Winter talked him into it. The thinking was that Floyd wa...

Re: Who’s the next coach

Huggins is not a miss. And as to why Wooldridge was even considered after failing at Louisiana Tech, I don’t know. We have more money now, so we aren’t scraping the bottom of the barrel. Supposedly - and this very well may be a tall tale - Urick (or, reps acting on his behalf - not sure) was sent t...

Re: Who’s the next coach

Yeah he gave the program a jolt it so desperately needed at his first press conference. I completely think that hire was a success. I don’t claim to have more inside knowledge that others, but I do know from multiple sources Huggy struggled with the decision to leave and almost turned down WVU. He ...

Re: Who’s the next coach

He was brought in to right the ship. Unfortunate that he left for home but he accomplished his goal. K-State was no longer going to be a loser. Yeah he gave the program a jolt it so desperately needed at his first press conference. I completely think that hire was a success. It's actually pretty cr...

Re: Who’s the next coach

Actually, about 75 percent of the posters on this board collectively work to correct the things you say/make up in your mind and then attribute to others. It's pretty exhausting, but, you know, for the greater good and all that stuff. I won't bother asking you to cite where anyone compared this job...

Re: Who’s the next coach

You are such a treat. I will give you this - for as ridiculous as your posts frequently are, they do generate a lot of chatter (mostly for said ridiculousness). Continuing to fight the good fight (as futile as it is)... the irony of YOUR post is that it is infinitely easier to be a top 25 program i...

Re: Who’s the next coach

the irony of your post is not lost on us, kid. this will be a very difficult hire. much more so than football where there was a tradition of excellence and a championship coach in waiting. i can almost hear the echoes in advance after the announcement. poopooing this challenge, like this k-state jo...

Re: Who’s the next coach

Personally, I find the chicken little stuff annoying. If we're willing to spend $$$, we can get a good coach. As it relates to the usual cadre of excuses (MHK is in the middle of nowhere, recruits won't come here, etc.) they're simply convenient excuses people use in the last 30 years when our athle...

Re: Who’s the next coach

Good grief - take a peak at this thread after a few hours and half of the discussion has devolved (again) into Frank vs. Weber. Some people - and we all know who that person is - simply cannot help themselves.
