I think Frank Martin could be a decent coach.  At the begining of the season everybody said he couldn't coach, he was just there to make sure Beasley didn't decommit.  At the very least we know that he can substitute with the best of them.  The way he kept Walker and Beasley in the game when they were in foul troulbe, I don't think I've seen that before.  Maybe that destroyed continuity for the team, but it kept the offense coming.  And without Beasley and Walker, Pullen is not as effective.  We'll see in coming years, but I think K-State may have just "stumbled" onto a good coach.

Being a wildcat fan I can't be more excited about our future.  Next year is a big question mark, but there are things to look forward to.  We can now see if Martin can coach a more balanced team and get scoring from different players when needed.  I'm exited to see the recruits that are lined up for 2009, Wally Judge and McGruder.  They sound like solid players from what I read,  I also like what I see in the returning players from last year they should all get better and that is all we can ask for.

It will be interesting to see what the Cats do over the next few years, definitely recruiting has improved.  I give Huggins credit for the 'rebirth', but I also have to admit that Martin surprised me this year.  I was one of those who doubted his ability to coach earlier in the season, but he proved me wrong and turned out to be pretty darn good.  I think he has the ability to recruit above and beyond what is expected (and that's relatively high).  He relates well to the players and has the ability to take players with troubled pasts (Walker, Beasley, the dude transferring from Miami) and get them to buy in to him.  I don't necessarily like their "style" of play on the offensive end, but I expect that to change as Martin grows as a head coach.  Big XII will be fun.  And in reference to the initial post, some very good points.
