After watching last night Tang asked the question can I shame KSU into giving me $18M right now?

His actions are such he’s TRYING to get fired. Last night was him quitting on his team and his coaches. And given how unprepared they looked last night I question how well they were prepped. He doesn’t want to go to Houston or Allen Field House because it will further damage his image (or what’s left of it) because he knows they will both be 30+ pt losses and no Big 12 coach is going to go easy on him outside of Drew. How as a player would you show up for him after he said what he said ? When you know you won’t get an offer (supposedly) to come back? He sabotaged the program last night and is forcing the donors and his one ally, Taylor’s hand. I refuse to believe, as some do, that it was legitimate shame. If you want to go that route than you have another problem. You have a HC with the emotional IQ of the 18-19 year olds he’s coaching and is unfit to lead. I just think he’s more calculated than that based on all the other things he’s done up to this point over the course of his tenure.

I detest tang as a representative of the university I love and have never made that unclear. But last night wasnt intentional imo. Its incompetence. IF it was intentional, he is way overshooting the landing. You dont want kstate so pissed off and burned down that you never get hired for a real job again, which is where this is heading. It sucks to suck. Especially when you think you're as good as they think they are. This is incompetence imo

Could be. Really, really makes his boss look bad if that’s the case. He had a full 15-20 min post game before he had that press conference and said those things. Time to cool off and think about what you are going to say. It wasn’t as you are walking off the court reaction. He had to THINK about it. I think With $18M in his pocket he doesn’t have to coach again nor do I think he wants to. I think he knows he has the financial freedom to do the church work he really wants to do and that’s where his heart is and where he will end up. We are just dumb enough to bankroll it. Hopefully the churches will be painted purple at least.

It is 100% incompetence. If you admit that you are looking back at Minnesota last year about staying in a hotel for home games (spoiler alert - we are losing on the road also....its not a previous night problem.....) then you literally admit you have zero clue to what to do.

I thought this would fit in the shame thread as well as anywhere. Has anyone ever seen this?

That happened in a game I was playing in HS. We were playing in the Coffeyville Holiday tourney vs a team from Fayetteville (a young Sean Sutton was on that team). They were just kicking our asses and knew we had thrown in the towel. The FT shooter made the first shot and purposefully missed the 2nd with a damn near perfect alley oop toss to himself off the back board that tipped the rim. He one hand slammed that thing right over the top of his teammate and my head. Incredible🤣

Not just the play but the reaction to the play signifies what KSU basketball is under Tang. Besides Castillo throwing out his hands, like, WTF guys, nobody else shows any negative reaction or emotion to that ridiculous play. Almost like they either expect it to happen or just don't give a crap. Unfortunately, both are true and the body language after that just proves it.

I really feel for Castillo. I wish we could get a tell-all from a recent player to give us an inside look into what the F this program is like behind the scenes.

I really feel for David. He’s gotten a lot better this year and it sucks for him that these are the results that the team is getting. If Tang get’s fired, I really hope he stays to play for the next staff, but even if he moves on, I really hope he does well because his story is not a super common one at this level anymore.

You are watching (hopefully not literally) a coach who knows he is going to be paid enough money at the end of this season to never have to work another day in his life and be perfectly fine with that. Anyone who thinks Tang actually gives a flying fuckery about what is taking place, has their head in the sand. This mf'er is a used car salesman, covered in snake oil, that knows he has the school by the balls with his shitty ass contract. Gene should fire Tang, and the second after that happens, should be shit canned himself for putting the school in this spot with that fucking contract.

At nearly 59, how much worse could I be? Although, K-State may not carry geriatric insurance that would cover my probable broken hip…

We could (should?) just fire Gene now and then let Dick Lint get can get the ultimate revenge for Tang trying to depose him back in 2023. (I know that this isn’t actually how this really went but it’d still be funny)
