Im curious too- WK's former coach was making about 400K

It's interesting:
Stands as an Asst coach- 4 NCAA Tourneys- 3 trips to the Sweet 16 with one of those ending in the FF
Stands as a HC- 0-6 on Sweet 16's
Always liked Stans. He was great in Mama's living room from what I hear. Always sent an assistant out for fried chicken if there was nothing to eat.
I'm glad he's gone. Couldn't stand the sight of another fat guy walking up and down the floor, yet still getting playing time. Stans recruited another big guy from out of the country,.. can't recall his name. But that big dude had knees so bad he had trouble walking, much less a hurried trot.
Looking forward to what Howland is bringing to the program. Good luck to Stans. Don't let the players tell you what to do.
You are just wrong here. Stansbury was the main recruiter on House and the reason he chose A&M. Link below.

Stands was hired on May 10th- House chose A&M on June 1st- 3 weeks later. So no- I most certainly was not wrong. aGAIN- I'm willing to bet House had been contacted by Kennedy and his staff before they hired Stands. Did they make him lead recruiter after they hired him? Sure- because that is why you hire Stands. You damn sure dont do it for X's and O's
Kennedy- "Stands- we are on this kid from Houston named House. We have a real shot here- close the deal"
Stands- "yes Sir"
I forgot the name of the player that Stans recruited that later went to Alabama, his mama kidnapped a kid and he dropped out. Stans arranged for him to go to Houston, They were not going to let House transfer to a Texas school, until Stans told them he could arrange for this kid to transfer there if they would release House to A&M. And thats the true story. Whether Kennedy told him or not , I have no idea. Bet he was damm glad he did if he did in fact.
About Sidney, Stans was just determined that Sidney would turn the corner and be the player everyone thought he would be, until it was just too damm late and the damage was done. Under the circumstances I think everyone on this board would have taken a chance on him, Stans problem was he just didn't run his fat ass off. Whether he should have done it after the fight, but the other guy was really getting belligerent with other players as well as Sidney because of his jealously of Sidney. He had to be gone as well, and was. It was plain as day, he was the one that started the fight. Sidney certainly ended it from what I saw.
I knew Stansbury was done within the first two minutes of meeting Winsome Frazier for the first time ever. He openly offered his opinion of how clueless he thought Stansbury was/is to me. A random person he had just met and he was joking to me that Stans was clueless. I was shocked he was so casual about it like it was just something everyone knew and made fun of Bury like it was just a part of everyday speech. This culture of ripping on the head coach and nobody respecting him went on for years. For atleast eight years Stansbury's lockerroom that he built himself had zero respect for him. That's why you saw fights, drugs, no weightlifting, no giving a **** and over thirty players leaving the program. Stansbury has no backbone. Grown men don't respect that especially coming from their own head coach. I hope Bury has figured that out by now but I seriously doubt it. Best thing he can do is hire an assistant that will be the hard ass disciplinarian because Bury certainly won't be. People will walk all over you if you let them. Bury let them.
You should hear Bullard and a couple others talk about him. But they do give him credit as a tireless Crooter
Well Winsome did cut his hair.
Bullard did a little time and has been out awhile now- trying to get things on track. Hopefully he will. He spoke to the basketball team that weekend. He also said Rick Ray needed to go
Congrats to shit Stains!
