Official NCAA coaching changes thread

If Self leaves Kansas, why would Turgeon want to go back to a mid-major like Kansas? He would be taking a step backwards in his career.

[WuDrWu]

Mark is not leaving the Pac 10 for the Heartland, I don't care from where he graduated.


Plus he's too smart to take a $1.5 million per year pay cut.

Not to mention that he's already won a conference championship and reached the Sweet 16 with a "mid-major". Been there, done that.

KU: Goodbye final fours and hello bracketbusters....

[WuDrWu]

From phog.net:



beaker1310: Man I hope we get Butler....our SOS is in the tank and it's our only chance at this point.


sluttybabyjay: No chance......we had to give up home games the next 2 years just to get Creighton last year. I'm just hoping at this point it's an OVC team and not the Summit.....we've lost our last 3 against Summit teams.

Doc, aren't you finding the comedy on phog.net truly entertaining?

This board is OBSESSED with KU. Multiple threads over 5 pages long spent on discussing KU.

Carry on.

Not obsessed at all. The problem is coming from the stench of the soiled undergarments of KU fans.

Those northeast winds blowing toward Wichita are brutal, especially when KU fans in Lawrence and the Kansas City area are having retention problems, upon learning that they are soon to be a (gulp)... mid-major.

There is absolutely NOTHING going on at WSU bball right now other than the players are on campus.

Meanwhile our sister school to the northeast (that is about to receive the step child status they insisted had to bestowed on WSU) has a few things going on:

1) Millions of dollars worth of tickets disappear from the athletic department under two consecutive athletic directors and two consecutive directors of ticket operations. That's institutional control alright, but in the opposite way the NCAA likes to see it happen.

2) The AD violates an ethics clause in his contract with the state and when he's caught tries to claim he was only renting the illegal "gift", but no one will accept his rent check.

3) The B12 is about to dissolve and KU isn't invited to play with the big boys.

4) While the most critical league meetings in the history of the B12 are taking place, Lew Perkins isn't attending because he's a little tied up with the Federal Grand Jury investigating him and the KU athletic department.

5) The father of a student athlete (who took a year of walkon status to offset an NCAA sanction to lose a basketball scholarship) got $800K of laundered money out of the KU athletic department.

6) The KU fan base is collectively pissing down their leg. Except for the delusional ones who are convinced that any top-tier conference would love to give KU millions of dollars a year of subsidies to have KU bless them with their presence.

7) The KU Chancellor is so concerned that she's trying to get our state Senators to lean on somebody in Washington to get KU invited to the prom.

8) Bill Self is probably putting out job feelers just to keep his bases covered.

Any one of those at this time of the year would get some run on about any basketball board in the country. Put them all together and put them in WSU's back yard and it's not obsession. It's a train wreck and we're just waiting for the smoke to clear and see if the authorities send out ambulances or hearses.

Doc, aren't you finding the comedy on phog.net truly entertaining?

Someobody might want to tell the guy that is demanding that Gov. Parkinson step in and save KU that the Governor is a WSU grad.

Honestly, I have spent no more than 15 minutes in a year looking at those guys. My attempt at humor today was my first post in at least a year, and outside of the job changing fun a few years ago, I can't have more than 20 posts there. I don't care.

But I have no problem taking pleasure in the suffering of the most arrogant fan base this side of the Mississippi.

You can feel the pain in TNW's posts.....he's hurting and hurting bad. Heavy drinking, late night posts, maybe even an illegal drug or two are certainly in his immediate future.

[Txlen]

They are so desperate for a breath of life that I don't think knowing that the governor is a former Wichita State graduate would even bother them right now.

Validation is what they are now seeking and past achievements are nothing but a fleeting memory in the reorganization process. And, it is sucking the breath right out of them.

I guess the same holds true with your obsession with this board.

What would you do without me?
