Coach Frank named as UCONN candidate
- Thread starter lawcalcock
- Start date
If Frank leaves I'm probably gonna hate every jackass on here who wished for it for quite a while. Some of you wouldn't know a good thing for Carolina when it was right in front of your face
If Frank leaves, then some can ask GOD in Kansas to come home....
I think that's probably true. But anything that leads to a sporting event as great as the Dance is worth emphasizing, especially now that the SEC is taking it more seriously.
if so, maybe Geno will come coach SC women's basketball and Staley can move over to coach men's basketball since she is the greatest coach of all time at SC
a yankee will let u cuss, but r resident baptists take offense

It’s not as cut and dry as you might think it is.
One man's opinion...Let's see where they go over the typical five-year coaching transition. Of course, by then, they might wind up in the ACC if ND comes in.
UConn may offer Frank more than he is making in Columbia. But if he brought the same level of success to the Gamecocks that UConn will expect him to bring there, he will probably make more money here. UConn does not expect their next coach to take them to one NCAA appearance in 6 seasons. UConn will not expect their next coach to finish tied for 3rd in his best conference finish in 6 years. They expect to be regular dancers in the tournament as a low seed an a regular contender for a national title. They probably expect their guy to bring home a national title in the next 10 years.
Before you straw-man arguers say I'm trashing Frank Martin, I'm not. I'm merely pointing out that if UConn offers him more than he is making at Carolina, it's not because they expect him to duplicate for them the results he's gotten here. Higher expectations will come with that higher paycheck. If Frank were to bring the same level of success to Carolina, it's virtually certain we would put him among the highest paid coaches in college basketball. Coach K level? No. But top 10, certainly. Heck, according to USA Today, he's already top 20.

i don't know if its that high pressure picking a bball coach at SC, while its important, its proven over the years if they make a mistake , really not that big of a fuss... and one final four appearance imo, wont change that
Shoot, when i'm allowed to leave the basement, i'm a different person
The people who love and care about basketball really love and care about it. And for myself, I think we blew a lot of potential here, first, by leaving the ACC, and secondly, by firing Felton, who was not only an excellent coach, but who loved the university, and third, by aiming low after Odom. And what if Cremins had actually come here? I just believe that the University of South Carolina could be a legitimate top-20 program all the time.
Felton had issues, where did he coach after SC, no where.
5 yrs as a college coach , then never a HC again,
I’ve said this before and I don’t believe it is an overstatement - Tanner’s fate as AD is tied to Muschamp’s success exclusively. Everything else is nice to have and yes it causes some uncomfortable noise for Tanner if non-football sports have a down year. But his main job is to win in football. I know that is not popular to say, but I believe it’s true.
If Muschamp continues the steady improvement and wins consistently, Tanner will be golden. Oh, and we need to beat Clem, can’t forget that.
correct, its football.... and if bball is good every once and awhile, thats icing on the cake
Boy I do not know how to broach this without just stepping in with both feet...I have a feeling ( nothing I can verify) both Frank and Dawn have had about enough of our AD not taking a stance with either programs issues !...I think he /us as a University has let both of these programs down in regards to standing up to the NCAA and the bullcrap...thanks
With Franks recruiting issues here... He needs to squash any rumors quickly and emphatically
I think he was going to turn it, but I wouldn't have babied him. Dance in Six or Pick up Sticks. By the way, how well did the fellow do who replaced him?
We were in the dance between 1974 and last year. We just didn’t win a game during those years.
Fogler was burnt out and didnt want to coach anymore and like i said Felton, i'll be kind, had issues outside of basketball..not a bad guy though
yes correct, , i know what i meant to say, just didnt do a good job saying it
..still trying to forget Coppin St
His "issues" were overblown because the AD at that time was a button-down teetotaler.
Are you posting this from Nigeria?
probably, I had a good time one night with George and Paul Hornung in a watering hole
