Why? Frank Martin
As I gaze at my Frank Martin signed Kansas State basketball, housed in a trophy-like glass case, I ask, does this ball mean anything now? Did the 5 years that Frank Martin coached at Kansas State really mean anything? I followed the Martin saga closely on the Wabash Message Board. The feelings on the board mirrored shock, anger, conspiracy, hatred, distrust, disloyalty, on and on. In the end, Frank Martin is gone to South Carolina and I am left with a basketball. The signature on that basketball is indecipherable. In the end of this eventful few days that really says it all. The national face of Kansas State basketball was the decipherable faces of Frank Martin, the intensity of Frank Martin and his teams. A great debt is owed to Bob Huggins and certainly Frank Martin, but Kansas State University is bigger than any one person and I take comfort in that thought. EMAW
