Kevin Saal Not Hot Seat

[Aargh]

Might want to change the topic on this one due to the necessity of changing the topic on the Mills thread. Saal's seat is probably hotter than Mills' seat because Saal is on a shorter contract (I hope)

Saal just signed a 3-year contract extension in June, but the story was published about a month ago:

I can only think that his ameliorating the athletic department's financial situation was the reason.

Saal has to be sweating what's going on with the basketball team. That's been the most nationally known face of the university for about 20 years or more. And it's an embarrassment right now.

We've had our dark eras, namely the 90s but basketball has been the face of the university since the 60s.

I'd buy that.

But I based what I said on the following. When I would travel in the 90s, nobody I ever talked to knew WSU by its basketball team.

When I travel now, most people know WSU by its basketball team.

Hired the worst coach in WSU basketball history. Period.

Does he still make his monthly radio talk show appearances? Is he still pumping up the excuse train like he did all of last year?

We all know we can't afford to move on from Mills anytime soon but this mofo better get out in front of this at the end of the season. He's gone eerily quiet. Step up to the podium and say something. Address the elephant in the room that nobody has faith in you or Mills.

If we could convince our Uber-woke president, I guarantee you we could sign an extremely low monetary contract for Heiar. even with all of his baggage, program would be NIT year 2 maximum.

Everyone take a good hard look at Mississippi State. That could be us. Really. Chris and Sheri LOVE Wichita. Chris was the heir-apparent.

Someone needs to write down the Boatright story. That’s Shocker HOF worthy. Enshrine that **** so EVERYONE knows just how awful he was. Hang it from the rafters until we are back in the NCAA tourney.
