KSU is currently 9-15 (2-9). They are currently favored in 2 of the 7 games. Add in a likely loss in the first round of the Big 12 tournament and no postseason the team will finish 11-21 (4-14).
Only KU, BU haven't had a huge down year since the new Big 12 was formed.
Newer coaches were given time to build (Boyton, Prohm, Smart, Johnson). Experienced coaches that continued to fail were fired (Ford, Johnson). Huggins and Kruger only had a single terrible year, and had also built credit with the school for past accomplishments. Neither of them had won 1, let alone 2 Big 12 titles. Like it or not, Weber is going to be back next year, and probably the year after that and will be given time to rebuild the roster with the 2 best recruiting classes in a row that the school has seen. If he can't show progress, then he will be fired when these young players are JRs or SRs and another coach will inherit a lot of talent to hit the ground running.
Of course he will. He should be. What I have read on this thread is.... we aren't good, we didn't think we would be this bad, we're frustrated. However, this season puts some heat on Weber. The kind of heat that most programs would have after a dismal season. If it doesn't, then we have become pretty pathetic in our expectations of our program. Any fanbase in America would be concerned over first to worst and worst. Anyone calling for him not to be back next year? Please reply if you are. I think that would be a big mistake with this class that is signed, but your opinions are every bit as valid as anyone else's.
