Great news

Can we blame the Iowa State loss on Frank spending too much time with his lawyers?

OK, just kidding, but it’s great that this is done. I’m tired of people talking about it.

We'll carry the banner high!

Awesome

From what Frank had been saying it sounded like the contract extension was on the back-burner during the season. I’m glad they worked it out this quickly afterwards and now he doesn’t have to think about it.

Yeah

Good raise, good guy. I couldn’t be happier about this. Well, yes I could. If the raise had come after beating ISU by 30.

The thing that is not stated but should be understood...

Is that this will help recruiting. Athletes will now want to commit to K-State if they know Martin is a long term guy. Hopefully the rest of the staff stays put as well.
