KSU Coach Apologizes For Player Contact

((HT: WIBW-TV Topeka))

Kansas State Head basketball coach Frank Martin is, shall we say, intense...

So when an old-school coach thinks a player needs motivation or his attention refocused, Martin has his ways of reorienting said attention... especially when you're a top 15 team in the country.

It includes giving a player a quick pop on his person- like he did in the Mizzou game Saturday to Chris Merrieweather.

The HQ doesn't really think what Martin did is a big deal, but in today's hyper-touchy society, we understand what Coach did after the game...

Apologize out of the box...


The HQ's only real issue is in the post-game where a K-State player referred to his coach by his first name... so much for that whole "position of authority" thing...
