There’s plenty of coaches who would not be treating this the way that Frank is. Frank is the man.

Best of luck to TW and I really hope we see him next season.

Hope things get straightened out for him back home and he stays in shape and comes back next year. I know he came from a tough background — hopefully this is just a speed bump. I think having a coach like FM will help with that.

Could’ve used him this year — don’t know how much you can play 2 of Leveque, Kante, and Woodley together, but he would’ve given some minutes and I think guys would like playing with him since he supposedly sets good screens and is a good passer for a big dude. I feel like we’re okay though with Leveque and Kante and now Gapare and/or Thompson might see a little more time that would’ve gone to Woodley. Different players obviously, and not quite as much size, but more mobility.

Best of luck to him dealing with his family issues. I hope he hangs in there and is back next year.

This is why skimping on bigs and not offering a full 13 scholarships in mind-numbingly short sighted.

Fingers crossed on our bigs staying healthy 🙏

Doc, we have 13 full scholarship players (including Woodley) and a "preferred walk-on".

Because Frank is smarter than the people who were not concerned about being small in the A10.

All hail FRANK!!! And, of course, DK for bringing us Kante late in the game.
