Following Currie's departure, interim AD Laird Veatch was thought to have a better than even chance of getting the full-time AD gig. But sources say part of the reason he didn't is that even Veatch -- a member of Snyder's first recruiting class -- didn't support the Sean succession plan.

"Now that Currie is gone, [Bill has] got the guy [Taylor] he wants there," said longtime friend and former K-State defensive coordinator Phil Bennett. "He's got the new president [Gen. Richard Myers].

"Sean will be the head coach. I think it's in order."

If Bill were to step down, say after the Baylor game, sighting health issues who would be the interim head coach?

I don't want to get old.  However, being able to say & do whatever I want to get what I want without worrying about repercussions will be a huge perk.

Dana, Seiler gets promoted to co-DC, & an older co-DC (whoever Hayes 2.0).

Mustang leaking this to CBS was a clever tactic.

The fact that the author is Dodd makes this article easier to take.  I still think it's Leavitt.

Very true.  The journalistic work of Dodd exists somewhere between warm garbage (when he does his best work) and steaming hot garbage (which is his normal everyday work).

The only issue is determining what mode he was in when he wrote this.

Apparently, Bill literally did interview him.  And then he got the job the same day.

Welp, Sean it is, I guess.

Not a glamorous pick for sure, but we could do worse and I'm not convinced that Sean would fail.

I'd have fewer reservations about it if Venables wasn't sitting out there.

I also worry about the possibility that Bill is the primary driver of this against the better judgement of others like Taylor given his overwhelming bias.

I've come around on the Sean Snyder experiment. The guy after a legend usually fails, too much pressure to be like the guy before him, and Sean is like at least 50% like Bill, so why not?

Sean may whip ass, I don't know. But I don't like the presumption that Bill wanting him as HC played into the AD hire.

If our dysfunctional options are currently Bill or Sean, I'd argue for Sean.  Bill and Sean would likely both continue doing whatever they do currently for less money total, and a theoretically younger good assistant could be added to the staff.
