Is Weber out a KSU?

[CRCySpy]

My prediction is they go after Tang and when Tang says no, they go after the North Texas coach.

That's a no brainer. I'd go after some Tang too.

Problem KSt has is that EVERYONE is going after him and they pay like we pay.

Ouch...nice little dig toward KSU fans:

"The negativity that surrounds K-State times is really sad to me," Weber said. "This is the only school I've been associated with that I tell our recruits to avoid our social media. I'm afraid of what they'll see. Hopefully that can change, maybe with the new coach, and everybody can be positive about K-State and K-State athletics."

That is a little rough and unfair imho.

His previous Illinois "fans" barely notice they have an athletic program unless they make a Final Four. It would be an easy job in that respect compared to KSU fans who follow the team regardless of how hot or cold they are.

You guys simply don't understand what a good dude Bruce Weber is and why he would not set the school up. Everyone who knew him believed he would step down before ever being forced out. He's a decent person.

Weber and our Bill Fennelly are very close friends. Fennelly always speaks very highy, almost in reverential terms, of Weber.

Keno Davis. There's a name I haven't heard in about 10 years. Wonder what he's up to these days and if it'd be worth a call for K-State.

He was fired last year at Central Michigan. He did have some initial success up there, but his teams don't play defense.

Niko Medved at Colorado State. He's had success there after a year at Drake. I can see K-State looking at him.

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Better bet: Drake starts running the conference or Murray comes in and runs the conference?

The off-season transfer portal should provide some answers.

If K-State does not hire a minority head coach, I will be very disappointed. Tang has been my favorite from the get-go.

Always hated his standing on the court and he seemed quirky but never had any issues with Webber for his general antics etc.

Bummer he's gone but love his dig on the way out.

 

[CyJack13]

One of the biggest frauds in NCAA history, looks like it finally caught up to him

Why not hire the best candidate? I wouldnt want to limit the candidate pool.

Swing and a miss.

So he isn’t taking next seasons salary?

Weber finished 3-20 all time against Kansas while the head coach at KSU.

 

[WalkingCY]

I'd get Tom Assbury or whatever his stupid name was back to coach if I was KSU.

They'll end up hiring someone like Niko. Can double if not triple a guy like that's salary.

Don't care.

Is there any other profession where people think an employee shouldn't take what they contractually agreed to?

You'll have that when you aren't getting Billy Preston type of recruits with cars.

 

[randomfan44]

Don't care.

The people involved in the mutual decision to let Weber step down care.
