Midseason coach of the year AND RPI leader after 3 weeks. Doesn't get much better than that if you're a grape.

K-state has looked great this year. #1 RPI (which means little at this point) and #12 in overall Kenpom rankings (which means much more), and since FHS have past every test they have faced. Quality, experienced back-court and athletic front-court. KU-KState will be some epic matchups this year. I can't wait. |

I see Temple was inspired and brought their "A" game.

Hi hawkchief. Glad KU finally beat a ranked team this year. Still have one more to go to tie your neighbors to the West.

Hope we can get Frank signed to a long-term deal soon. He seems like a very loyal person, and if K-State can show him some loyalty, I think/hope he'll be around for a long time. |

A period of dormancy? A period? It was 20 years. That's like a mesozoic era in basketball.
As far as locking up Frank "long term": That's nice and all, but he'll move when a better job comes open in the South. That's just life. And that's where Currie will earn his keep. By being nimble and proactive enough to keep things going after Frank leaves. |

And Frank does deserve to paid better. After making complete and utter fools of the folks who claimed he would be a failure and threw those ridiculous "he's unethical" charges at him, Martin is certainly having the last laugh.

I'm worried that Delonte will bolt for a HC job and we will lose a lot of our recruiting. Simultaneously, I am also worried that Frank will bolt if offered a big boy job. In the next three years, if this keeps up, the offers are going to start pouring in....

If Frank wins 23-24 games, he's going to be offered. And he'll probably take it. Again, that's just life. When that happens, we will then see what Currie is all about.

I'd think a annual contender might want to see a little more. But who knows. Money talks. |

An annual contender isn't looking for a coach most of the time Dante. It's usually a university like KSU, just in a conference where there is more money and easier access to talent. Hopefully he stays for 5 years. That's about all I wanted from Huggs. That should provide a pretty solid foundation for the next coach. And DH better pull another great player in next year. We're going to need one |

One other aspect in Frank's favor is he truly does like to run and gun. It's a great offense to play in. Players enjoy that style.
