Snyder Retirement Coaching Search Master Thread

[kso_FAN]

I think Snyder probably wants to stay another year or two at this point. He's got a core of younger talent on par with 2011 IMO. I'm sure he would like to at least get another 10 win season before he bows out and with what we have in place it might be possible.

a 36 yard field goal @ wvu and not melting down vs. osu and he very likely could have had that this season. i hope he puts together another run similar to '11 and '12. it was loads of fun.

Preferably '12 rather than '11... my heart cannot handle the 2011 season again... let's just not do that "lose the 2nd to last game of the year to a lesser team to lose our chances at a natty" thing again...

Also, "Inside of Vanier"

Yeah, I'm saying this year is similar to 11, we just haven't won as many of the close games. If we can replace the defensive losses, next year could be a 10 win season. We return nearly 80% of our 2 deep next year.

I see PJ Fleck going to Purdue or possibly Oregon. I'm not sure I believe Venables even wants to be a head coach.

Our next coach will not be Venables, because on Tuesday Keitzman said that absolutely will not happen.

Hope he tells Del and Dana they need to shape up if this is his plan

I don't think it's crazy that all three of them remain where they are. No one really knows but there are people around certain that Fleck is going to stay. If Purdue is the only P5 offer he gets he may not go, he's going to get another raise, he already makes more than Beaty. Purdue will need to give him a good amount of money, possibly more than they're comfortable with.

Venables isn't on anyone's list which isn't surprising given where the open jobs are. Houston makes the most sense but they likely can't afford him.

As for Snyder I think I've come to realize that he isn't going to have a planned retirement at all. When he leaves it will be sloppy and probably not beneficial to us, he'll have a health issue or he'll wake up at some point in June or something and figure out he doesn't want to do it anymore.

We have a real chance to win 9 games this year and then 10+ the next two years with how bad the Big 12 is. We also have a very solid group of young players being worked into the system. If Snyder wants to leave with the program in the best possible shape, then he probably needs to leave now. Fleck would be my first choice and I think he'd be a great fit, but I would be surprised if we were even on his radar.  That being said, I think that if Leavitt wants the job we should give it to him now. He probably has about ten years left in him and I think he would be able to at least sustain the level of success we've had in Snyder 2.0. If Sean stayed on as ST coordinator, then we would only be a solid OC from being a really good team, considering Leavitt's defensive coaching prowess.

30/70% imho

10 games next year will be tough, OU basically starts with 5 tds in MHK and goes from there and I don't see anything but a wild loss in Stillwater.  If Ertz can just other teams even worry about throwing completing it over their heads we could be great on offense and coast everywhere else in this league.

[pissclams]

the b12 needs to reset their conference schedules.

when they created this thing they paved OU a path to the national championship every other year by giving them the H/A rotation that they did.
ours should be like theirs

I get the feeling that Bill doesn't want to leave if the team is bad,  but he doesn't want to step down if things are clicking either.  There will never be an ideal time, but this off season makes the most sense,  which is why he'll come back... Emaw

Its so maddening to th i nk about what we could be if he wasnt so loyal. I know how that sounds btw im talking about with assistants and upperclassmen. Its nuts to look back over the year and know this is a ten win team if it wasnt for coaches and arrogance

Oh good grief

Thank you, I was wondering what the hell was happening.

Why would you say that?

What's the abnormality with their h/a rotation? I think never having to play in Austin is their biggest assist.

[MakeItRain]

I kind of agree with slim. Is trade the word arrogance with incompetence though. We've discussed a lot of the second half offense stuff that happened most of the season. I'm more angry with the defense. The production from that unit given the amount of talent they have is inexcusable, most assistant coaches would have been canned for the multi year stretch Hayes has had. We have two Big 12 defensive poy and all-america candidates in our front seven, two guys in the secondary who will be first or second team all-conference, I wouldn't be surprised to see as many as six or seven get all-conference honors. The scheme is terrible and I have no idea how Hayes is getting a paycheck.

[Skipper44]

I don't want to defend Hayes but I think the talent on this defense is a little overstated.  I love Lee and Willis but the elite Cat defenders would have made a play during the one of the WVU or OSU 4th quarter drives, Arthur Brown's int of RG3 is the perfect example.  To me this year's defense is more about finally having legit Big 12 talent across the board with the exception of nickel.

Have you guys seen what has become of our once bustling bb board?  It's in neglected shambles.  If whoeves sock reno is would stop using that sock, there would be basically no traffic on it.

I know of a few posters who would post on the bb board more if reno would gtfo. Ski    Be   !

this season their only road game was @ wvu
isu, wvu, tt, tcu, (and hosted at dallas v ut)

That's only light because TCU was unexpectedly down, people were picking them to win the conference. Tech was disappointing as well. Going off of preseason expectations only K-State had a tougher road schedule.
