He left a school that has a good, not great, but good basketball tradition to go to USC that has NO basketball tradition at all.

Must of had some suplaining to do and did not do a good job of it!!

Actually, SC cares more about basketball that some SEC schools, and has had some good years in the past. And let's face it - would you rather live in Manhattan, kansas, or South Carolina?

Also, I think some of his actions had not endeared him to the ksu AD. I don't think he was pushed out, but the relationship wasn't good, so he got a chance and took it. He is also smart enough to know the big 12 isn't a strong conference, and could see where the SEC is headed.

Him and the AD didnt like each other, and easier to recruit FL from SC than Manhattan. All in all it was a good move for him. They will improve.

I agree semo. Having had to pass through the little rotten apple on the way to Colorado all my life, is not exactly exciting. Thank god for I-70, and the 70 mph speed limit.


I like Frank. Always have liked him as a coach. I'm into the super intense coach like him. You can never doubt his love and passion for the sport.

That team personel down there is just killing him big time. You could see it in his expressions on the bench lastnight. He looked as if he was about to break out in tears he was so pissed. I feel for the guy. It's gotta be hell to sit there for him and lose by 20 points at home.
