Now he can build off what we have returning
Definitely did not want another coach search

Some of y'all were shocked I know that any other program in the universe would want Frank Martin but you'd be surprised who would. Cinncy knew what Frank was getting paid before they made it known they wanted him so money probably ain't the reason Frank stayed. The haters can only hope he fails next season. I hope we get things on track because "Frankly" I don't want to be known as only a women's basketball school.
Tanner would've ended up hiring Bryce Drew after four months of looking.
Really hope we end up having some extended success. I love Frank. He's a great person and a great coach. Got to go out and get some quality players.
Go Cocks!
Go Cocks!
This is such a lame narrative. NO ONE wants the university or team to fail, period.
Well, you can't prove it by me. Some hate Frank so badly they want him replaced and the only way that happens is total failure of the program.
They want him replaced by the fact that he has been a failure 5 out 7 seasons while coaching here.
On the bright side, we won't have to deal with a new thread every time a new opening becomes available. Well, at least until this time next year.
That’s because no one will have him but you and Ray.He wasn't going anywhere to all you Frank haters
Some people want to handle coaches like Methodist preachers and politicians with a one term limit. Four years, and no matter of where we are, get somebody different.
Bull ! They don't like him because he hasn't restored the proud name of men's basketball at Carolina (sarcastic). It's been 50 years since we mattered in basketball and getting to the final four ruined us because now we expect it every season. Well, it ain't gonna happen. Frank is the best we can get and the past 20 yrs. proves it as fact every coach since Frank Mc has failed. He's a good coach, but he's a different kind of coach, who knows how to win but some refuse to see how after the final four run that team was gone, a team HE recruited. We expect a miracle coach to come in and make us pretty overnight and that's a pipe dream no matter who is here it's going to take years unless you sign five or six 5* players at one time and they ain't out there waiting for a UofSC offer.
Since Frank is staying, can we get rid of some "fans" instead?
Color me Frank. I still believe he is the exact guy to lead us to a top notch program. It has taken awhile, and maybe I am still living off that final four run, but that run is significant in this way: we made that run with really only one bona fide scorer (I didn't count PJ, although through the run he was great). The rest was tough, in-your-face defense, which is Frank's MO.
I thought with the team we'd have coming back, we'd start a long run. Then, PJ left, and Felder got into trouble. Kotsar stagnated. I saw none of those things happening; maybe Frank could have done something - don't know what though. Nonetheless, Frank can get us back, starting next year.
Best news of the week, from this corner of Georgia.

mentioning his record is considered hate speech
It isn't like we have the people in place to make a replacement hire anyway.
Except that hasn't been the case at all.
Martin 7 years
Horn - 4 years (are you arguing he needed more time)
Odom 7 years
Folgler 8 years
Yeah, I'm not exactly beaming with confidence in that department.
This really would have been the equivalent of the Muschamp hire
"Then, PJ left, and Felder got into trouble. Kotsar stagnated."
Kotsar did the best he could do. He is a role player and can assist but not lead.
But he is, after all, a final four player.

Didn't matter to me if he stayed or went. Carolina Basketball is gonna be bout the same either way.
I just hope we don't hear next week that Tanner is upping his contract.
If Martin could have gotten matching money and Cincy to pay his buyout, he woulda left is my guess.
Would have been nice to have a fresh start for both.

Ludicrous. People enjoy winning. I enjoyed 2017.
Personally speaking I don't hate Frank Martin! I love USC enough to want a better men's basketball program!
How are we going dancing with our roster of post players? My guess Is 75% chance it's NIT!
I know man but I think he is the best shot right now I'm terrified if we replace him what follow. Been there done that.
My gosh fans are full of excuses. His job is to win not to make excuses why his team didn't win. For some reason the thought is we are gonna return a top 25 team. Really?

Disagree 100%. There are some on here that want Frank Martin AND Will Muschamp to fail. They're typically the ones that are absent when 1 of them win.

Give it a rest. Nothing Tanner ever does will make you happy. Even hypothetical hires. What did he do? Run over your dog or something?
I disagree with that. There are several unemployed coaches I would take over Frank Martin right now. Mike Anderson. Proven coach that has gotten four programs consistently in the dance. I would even take Avery Johnson. I think Frank only beat him one time while he was at Alabama. Frank is a mediocre coach that had a great run. It happens. Kevin Ollie won a National Championship.
