That doesn't compare to his "marketing" of his summer league teams and players on road trips to tourneys and camps. Trips fully sponsored by some of Martin's associates.

IIRC, he set up practically his entire high school state title team with phony addresses so that they'd be eligible to play in that district. Had them living with "associates" and "boosters" that set up apartments in little havana for the HIGH SCHOOL KIDS to live in.

If you are willing to exploit high school kids to win a high school state title, you aren't worthy of consideration for any kind of job, much less a nationally prominent college coaching job. Kansas State caught a ton of flack when they hired him.

We apparently are going to go cheap. While he is a good choice I fear he will be too expensive.

If we are going after Lawrence Frank cheap isnt the word I would use. He would cost atleast 2.5-3 million. Our top 2 seem to be Mooney and Frank and would be excited about either. Both are great choices.

Mooney will be cheap. 1.5 million or below in a major conference is cheap.

Please no! Please, I hope no one is seriously considering this guy. I know he's done a good job at KSU especially considering the entire state is obsessed with KU Basketball. But still, the guy's a joke with how much he needs the camera on him at all times.
