Tang gonna Tang

And they REALLY hate that guy. The way they talk about him is crazy unhinged!

Like he's the one who stole the rest of Willie's costume and hid it forever.

Willie was more than a head???

What is the source ranking NIL budgets? I have yet to see anything resembling a reputable report of where various schools are at for NIL.

There really is none that I know of because NIL funding isn't public information. However, most folks who are pretty knowledgeable about NIL money across the country feel KState is near the top of the list.

I always come back to: They fired Bruce Weber, to hire this guy? Granted Weber was kinda running on fumes at the end, but what a juxtaposition of character.

Loveable oaf to complete *******.

Both generally bad coaches with occasional bursts of luck, though.

IF JP had hired Tang, I might have been amused by his interaction with student fans. I would be embarrassed by any wild accusations he might make, but would expect JP to rein him in. But honestly, the worst thing he does in my eyes is when he publicly throws his team under a damn bus.

I think Pollard learned from the Chizik near-fiasco to hire guys with personalities that are going to fit within the Pollard administration and the "bunch of dorks" mentality of Iowa State.

I doubt that hypothetical interview would go well.

That's a good thought. He's a coach who needs some coaching.

And maybe an IQ injection.

It has literally never been easier to get someone qualified to play. Yet he has three separate cases in one season that made people ineligible. What horrendous luck for him.

I think in his case he makes his own bad luck...

I used to wish an Iowa State ballhandler when ISU really needed to shoot some FTs would just drive into Bruce because he was always way out on the floor. I assume it would be an automatic technical foul.

Now when I watch a KSU game that doesn't involve ISU I find myself rewinding the game every now and then so I can laugh at how ridiculous Tang is on the sideline. I point it out to Mrs. Velo and she can't stop laughing.

Wait!? Willy has a body? Does anyone know where the body is buried?

Could be worse: some thought Tang would be a good fit at ISU

Ball don’t lie.

Here it is isolated.

Other teams can get guys that were drafted into the NBA, G League players, and foreign pros eligible but Tang "should have" 3 more guys on his roster but doesn't because of "NCAA rules"?

She was holding him back so that he didn't rush the court after the win.

Most excitement he had at the game after watching K State basketball

I spent 10 years waiting for someone to be Jason Kidd to Weber’s Mike Woodson and was sorely disappointed that it never happened.

It would have been a lot easier with Weber because the dude was always 2-3 steps out on the court, not just one step like Woodson.

Because those other 3 players were sharks with frickin' lasers attached to their heads.

We finally found the one thing that negates your eligibility

He doesn’t have much time left. After what’s bugging Andy turned on Fran it only took 8 more years.

 

[rosshm16]

Would Max Jones and Tyreek Smith take this team to the next level? Neither of those guys were anything special.

Maybe the mystery third missing player was the key.

That video isn't good for us. We want him there.

OSU wanted Travis Ford gone for 3-4 years before they canned him. Basketball buyouts are a thing teams typically don’t eat. I think he gets at least 1 more season to turn it around. Maybe I am wrong and they are full up with Kansas wheat money.

He will be starting over next season with an all new roster.
