" A source close to Kansas State basketball coach Frank Martin said Monday morning that Martin will become South Carolina’s next coach.
The source confirmed a report in The State, a newspaper in Columbia, S.C., that said Martin will be introduced as the Gamecocks’ coach on Tuesday. The State also reported that a trustees meeting had been called to discuss “a contractual matter.”
