Idk. His probation is the same reason as ours: Lamont Evans. Saying no to him because of that would be incredibly hypocritical. More than likely, he would say no to us though.
Does anyone really care

Why...because of his lackluster record at Oklahoma State? Or just because he was a former player here? Or because he's black?
Him being a former player here, I believe, is the appeal. But, you are right that, overall, his record, thus far, is laclkuster. Unlike Shane Beamer, in football here, he did not inherit a train wreck of a basketball program. He did have a good year last year making it to the Round of 32. He is 11-7 thus far this season. It remains to be seen how he finishes this season. But right now he looks like Darren Horn who had that one magical season (Sweet 16) that he parlayed to getting a major college job. The color of skin makes no difference (ex: Dawn Staley). And I certainly understand the comment above that it would be hypocritical to hold Ok. State's probation against him. But, I, for one, would not underestimate the mark that has against MB, regardless. But, here is one thing that I believe most, here, would agree on: Frank Martin needs to go. He cannot recruit. In my opinion, recruiting is more crucial to success in basketball, than in football. It's time for a change.
I can't even watch them anymore. The USC women are more exciting. This team will never go anywhere under Martin.
To be honest, I didn’t realize his record was that lackluster. Was because he was a former player here AND I apparently thought he was a better coach. Race has nothing to do with it for me.
I think the bottom line is that Frank can’t recruit / recruits projects and duds; save for legacy PJ Dozier and UNC-rejected Sin. Absolutely no disrespect to those two players, but without the noted qualifiers, do they even come here?
I’ve been done with CFM for a couple of years, but this bball preseason sucked me back in with the hope of the new faces and their potential. At this point, just wake me up when we have a new coach.
Mens basketball has not been interesting in a long time. We’re nowhere near good enough to be compelling but just good enough to not be a total train wreck that you can’t help but watch.
What player on this team went to the Final Four.
Do you think Frank will Dance this year?
