LHC Bill Snyder RETIREMENT ANNOUNCEMENT CONTEST (By goEMAW.com)
« on: November 10, 2015, 09:13:35 PM »


HELLO EVERYONE!

We at goEMAW are very excited to announce the LHC Bill Snyder Retirement Announcement Contest!!!!!  This event is your opportunity to predict the time and method for the official LHC Bill Snyder retirement announcement....AND, if you are correct, you will win a fabulous prize from goEMAW.com!!!!

Here's what we are looking for:  1) Name the date on which the announcement will be made, 2) Name the approximate time of day, and 3) How is the announcement made...what is official medium and distribution channel for the announcement.  Here's what we are NOT looking for....speculation about the next coach....that is NOT important in this thread.  :dubious:  The closest prediction wins!

I'll go first:


Date:  Monday, November 23rd (After the Iowa State game), so that everyone can plan to show up for his last game (albeit away) against KU.
Time:  9am Central Time
How:  John Currie email

I am not certain everyone here knows exactly how far Bill is willing to go to secure his team's motivation for a KU game.

Trim typically breaks ties, so his call.

I think it would be the press release in that scenario.

Assuming ISU is a W there is also value in rallying to get Bill bowl eligible one last time

Trim typically breaks ties, so his call.

If the press release says that the presser is for the retirement (it wouldn't), press release time is the time.  If it just says there'll be an announcement at the presser (even if everyone knows what the announcement will be), the time it's officially announced is the time.

Also, if you already know the date (time and method TBD), you're ineligible.

Guys, he's going to Joe Pa us.  Which means he won't retire until he's about to expire.  Who knows when that will be?  But I'll guess it to be at age 80.  Fall of 2020.
Hot time in Kat town tonight.
