If this happens, which it won't, Brad Underwood will be the next head coach at Kansas State!

Well let the fun begin....who would be his replacement??  Lon Kruger!


What about Steve Henson as head coach with Brad Underwood as assistant?

So you're willing to give up on the pipeline that we started 4 years ago?

:huh:

I'm saying there is no longer a pipeline.  If the worst happened and Frank left... I'd hire based on basketball prowess.

I guess that's where we don't see eye to eye.  Dalonte Hill is not an asset to me; who has he recruited in the last couple years?  Go to a practice... he's joking around with the players, not coaching.  I want a COACH.

Hill does NOT coach. He is a highly paid recruiter/friend to the players. I suggest you attend a practice or watch a game closely he is taking with players and encouraging but not coaching.

If Frank does leave for his home town who would you want to see come in his place?

Lon Kruger is on the top of my list. But how often has a coach left and returned for the same job?

I was very young at the time could someone tell me why he left when he went 81-47 and only had 1 bad year, plus made the NCAA tournament all 4 years with an Elite 8?

If I remember, the rumors going around at that time were that Kruger was having a fling with a Coed.  He was very successful at KState and I was sad that he had to leave.  Keep in mind though that it was just rumors that were going around in those days.  I'd be curious to see what Cyclist remembers about that timeperiod

Lon would get my vote as well, but I'm in the same boat as to being ingnorant of why he left.

I don't recall much about Lon leaving.  I seem to recall the coed thing.

It was like decent success, then leaving for Florida.  I do recall that Dana Altman had already left and he was the source of talent.  Of course, as soon as Lon left, KSU hired Altman...

Lon got caught with his hand in the cookie jar of some cheerleader(s)
