Kansas State fans are really super pissed off. They have *always* wanted Brad Underwood. Instead they have Bruce Weber. You want to talk about nut punches? You have no idea how sore their nuts are right now.
Walker should be the first priority. Then go meet with every recruit (assuming it's not a dead period, can't keep track). The #1 offensive system in the country should keep guys like Frazier, and will really help get Mark Smith on board.
Will be interested to see how he rounds out his coaching staff. I'm guessing he keeps Walker. We could look to hire the guy from LaLu with one of the spots if he is only bringing one asst with him from OSU.
Will be interested to see how much we pay him. I certainly don't see him going from $1 million (his contract straight lines to 1.26) to $2 million range.
Illinois will be in the tournament next year. Make no mistake about it. The question is how does he do in the long term? As long as he can recruit some guys, Illinois basketball will be fun to watch, and we'll win some games.
Well, every national college basketball writer and every person that pays even a little attention to Big XII basketball is super impressed.....but it doesn't do it for JiroDreamsOfMcRibs. So I guess I'm pretty torn.
People who didn't know his name (who in turn don't know college basketball) are the ones who are upset. Those who know what they're talking about love it, so I'm on board.
We will certainly play fast paced basketball watching Ok State play this year it was exciting basketball to say the least. Style of play should be popular with our fans and also with players which will hopefully help with recruiting. This is just proof that no one ever really knows what is going on as his name was barely if ever mentioned as a possible candidate
@ESPNStatsInfo: "Under Brad Underwood, Oklahoma St. ranked 6th in Div. I in scoring this season after ranking 303rd the season before Underwood arrived."
High I think. Whitman proved once again he is legit. Underwood is a ball of energy and is a hell of a coach. Jawun really excelled under him this year and will probably be an NBA 1st round pick if he leaves this year. I think Frazier will 100% be on board, Tilmon is a whole other ballgame though.
