aTm shot poorly on Saturday because the young 'Cats are finally starting to play good defense. Our seats are near the visitor's bench and it was fun watching the Turd freak as he was totally outcoached by HCFM.
Don't kid yourself. Frank Martin couldn't out bench coach my dead grandmother.

His coaching this year is basically "Give the ball to Beasley and Walker."

The press gave Martin credit for coaching b/c he moved Beasley in and out in the first have after two fouls; in on offense and out on defense.
He also got credit for moving Bill Walker to the permiter since he had 6'9" guys guarding him.
Those do seem like good ideas, but it isn't exactly brain science, is it?
Knowing you need Beasley in the game to score and that Bill Walker isn't a post up player aren't that hard to figure out. But I like Frank Martin, he's a really nice guy. :yes:

Just curious, how many here actually watched the game? How many have watched the growth of this team that is talented but very, very young and has not had the on court leadership of David Hoskins? There were several times on Saturday that a set play out of a time out was run to perfection - the Walker drive/dunk and the Stewart three to name a couple. That's coaching, not talent.
This team may still have a stinker or two left but over all they will continue to get better.
And MCMW? Beasley and Walker both were over 3.0 GPA last semester. Hardly criminal-like. Fred Brown was suspended in October for not going to class. Yep, HCFM doesn't care if his guys do things the right way.

I was at the game. So yes, I did watch it.

Good for you. Feel free to discuss on your board. Most of us here are, at the most, mildly curious about what is going on in Manhattan. We certainly don't care to debate it on our team's board.
I realize that it was a logical progression that got you to the point of discussing your coach on our board (Turgeon, KSU v aTm, coaching in said game), so I am just politely asking you to take your comments elsewhere.
BA2929 appreciate the support. McShocker my apologies. Judging from the high number of SG tags I see in the KSU parking lots there is a high interest in what's happening there but I can understand your thin skin. It's not easy to be a WheatShocker right now and God knows we Purple People understand that.
I hope Marshall stays as he seems to be as good coach.
You're right ISASO in Blake Young's case. Not paying your parking fines and then ignoring your court appearance is stupid, criminal and a threat to life as we know it. I think I'll go with just plain stupid. Frankly it's so insignificant I forgot about it.
Is the baseball field still named Eck (tax evader, pedophile) Field?

The SG tags are irrelevant. Of course there are KSU fans from Wichita. This is not a Wichita sports forum, it is a WSU forum. Therefore, the vast majority of users HERE are Shocker fans. BTW, we wouldn't really want to talk Cats BB even if we were undefeated, our current record has nothing to do with that at all.

I don't believe the Walker drive was a set play, I don't care what Martin says.
And yes, I attended the game. The crowd was good, but not as good as Shocker crowds. I've heard many people say that WSU's crowd is older. Outside of the student section, the KSU crowd was just as old. And they whine far, far more than WSU crowds. The KSU crowd didn't whine on the border line calls, they whine on almost all of them.
My 13-year old daughter pro-actively broght it up to me and wondered if the KSU crowd didn't know the rules of basketball very well. She attended the Drake game with me and offered no simlar comment.

Actually, I wasn't there for support. I was there working. I wouldn't have gone if I wasn't getting paid to be there.
