I'm not sure why an AD having experience (either student or professional) at a school should disqualify him.

I mean, Currie had both at UT.

If Veatch's first words aren't "eff John Carrie" he shouldn't be in consideration.

Any applicants with KSU ties will certainly highlight that in their cover letters and interviews, and I imagine their KSU experience would be considered and weighed appropriately when comparing all the applicants.

Can someone explain any burned bridges from when Weiberg left? A+ source expresses doubt he'd come back.

we have a 90 year old interim university president
we have a 90 year old interim head football coach
we have a dead man walking as our basketball coach
and some of you are happy that we lost our AD to one of the biggest athletic departments in the country (what a coup!)

they both have just as much experience as currie did when we hired him. what kind of experience are you guys looking for? oscar weber type? should we go try and hire the southern Illinois AD just because he's been an AD before?

Whether John Currie left or not, we were still going to have all the other things.

and the new ad will have to navigate through it all as opposed to the guy who has been here for almost a decade

all the more reason why hiring someone with no AD experience is absurd

The only two legit people on the list are Weiberg and Hocutt.

With that said, someone needs to reach out to Kevin Weiberg and gauge if he has any interest at all, I doubt it, but at least pick up the phone and ask.

Who said hire someone with no AD experience?   Hocutt has been the AD at two P5 schools and is chair of the football playoff committee.

The only requisite is, if Hocutt were to come to K-State he has to listen to Bill on the football hire provided it's not Sean and Bill still has his mental capacities.

Weiberg made the Ahearn Fund everything it should have been from the beginning.
