Didn't know whom Jake Paul was before yesterday but I'm a fan now. All he has to do to guarantee victory is to hire Dwayne Evans to be in his corner.

ACE Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Saw a bit of K-State last night. They don't look very good. Bradford played sparingly and Kasbuke still hasn't gotten off the bench. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He has made the Dance 5 out of his 8 seasons, although they are likely to miss again this year. I don't think that is bad at a place like K-State, which I don't consider a great job. Although there are plenty of P5 programs that have delusional expectations, so who know. I don't know what Weber's contract situation is, but in this economic environment, I'm not sure schools will be as willing to eat big contracts. If he gets dumped, he could make a nice assistant coach for Travis CBFan and almaman 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When your roster is composed of a bunch of 3 stars in a P5 conference, you're going to have a couple of up years followed by a couple of down years. If Weber can keep this group together, next season he'll have a veteran backcourt and a veteran frontcourt again. By comparison, we're in a great situation where 3 star recruits are some of the higher rated players in the conference. Some of them, like Yuri, are even impact players. The occasional 4 star recruit is just icing on the cake. CBFan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianstl Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 In the last ten seasons, only three times has a share of the Big 12 Conference Champion been claimed by a coach not named Bill Self. Chris Beard once and Bruce Weber twice. Weber made the Elite Eight three seasons ago. There is no way he should be on the hot seat at this point. Firing Weber at this point would be a bigger miscalculation than when the Illini fired Weber. The Illini have not played in a NCAA tournament game since the season after Weber was fired. billiken_roy, 3star_recruit and CBFan 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A couple of weeks ago Weber said the they are talking about months and not weeks when it comes to Kasbuke being ready. So there is a chance he might play at some point, but KSU might be smart to shut him down for the season. As we have seen, foot injuries can linger. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, you are saying that K state should fire Weber. Got it. Do your worst K State. Don’t overthink it. SLU will accept the transfers. On a more serious note, he is not on the hot seat, but if his team finishes well below .500, and if it looks like they do not have the players or culture to change it next year, that will change quickly.

Whether he plays this year or not won't affect his eligibility either way (he'll still have 4 years remaining), so if I was K-State I wouldn't close any doors on him returning unless a broader surgery would help his situation.
