Coach, I want to formally apologize to you for my behavior to you and the KSU men's basketball team since your arrival. I want to start off by saying, with Coach Martin left, I was heart broken. The only way I could compare it would be like I was a young kid and my mom left my dad, who I thought a great deal about, and married you. You came into my life and did everything right, you worked hard, treated my mom with respect, provided for our family and made her happy, but it didn't matter to me. I found every little thing you did and complained about it. I compared you unfairly to my former coach. Things you do a better job, and you do a lot of things better, I ignored. The things I thought my old coach did better, I made a big deal out of. You did your part, and I was rude and negative. ( I do think my intense dislike for John Currie played into my mind, thinking you two were tied at the hip, you were not, he hired you, but I learned he screwed you around and pissed you off as much as any of the coaches at KSU.) You were not his boy, as I first thought. What you have done with this team this year is as impressive a job of coaching as anywhere. The team plays hard, they know what to do, they buy in to what you want them to do. The main thing is you can tell by their body language and their comments that the CARE ABOUT YOU and your staff. As sometimes with a divorce, it takes the child a few years to mature, before they recognize how much their step dad cares about them and what a good job he is doing. I have reached that point with you. I am on board, from here to the end of your era at KSU. No more pot shots, no more pointing out the negatives, no more I wish Frank was here.... that time is gone. I still love Coach Martin, but I also love you Coach Weber, granted in a different way, but I do. No matter the outcome today, or moving forward, I trust you choices, and I believe that you know what is going on.. and it will be successful. Now go out there and get to the sweet 16, play it one game at a time, and I will do my very small part from the couch or the stands. I hope that you find it in your heart to accept my apology.
Sincerely,
@abarney51
