Pelini is coaching it up at Youngstown State in Ohio.

I think the issues were not have been even reported if Pelini won in Lincoln but because he won only on average 10 games a season for 7 seasons they used the issues to fire him.

Pelini for sure should get another chance.

Pinkle definitely qualifies as a gross coach I’d be at least moderately excited about. As far as fired coaches go, I don’t think Strong is gross at all, but I don’t think I could get excited about Muschamp. Is that weird?

Venzy is a sexy pick but risky. Leavitt will win. Venzy is a question mark as a hc. Kstate had the balls to hire the mobster Bob Huggins after his transgressions. I love the leavitt pick. However unlike huggy, JL would probably hang around.
Title: Re: Gross football coaches you would talk yourself in to

Also Leavitt is nowhere near as good at coaching football as Huggy is at coaching basketball, so that makes 2 differences.

I was going to ask why he hasn't landed a decent gig yet and realized nebraska is subsidizing him until 2018.  Also the Pelini/Tressel combo at youngstown state is :sdeek:

They are MCMW big time up there

Quote
Then Pelini found out about the free-agent defensive lineman on campus, he stalked Richmond, talked to people back home, and recruited him to play for the Penguins. That’s right, he sought out a convicted rapist, who was minding his own business and trying to put his life together, and convinced Richmond to play football.

At a P5. 10 out of those 12 years he's been .500 or better. 1 of those losing seasons was his first season there. He was at least good enough to get out of the MAC.

Yeah, and at his age he was limited. Plus, he had only been at Nebraska as a player and coach. He had a few years of coaching HS (in Nebraska), but that was it. He was around 60 when he went to Ohio, if he had gone on a run of 3-4 straight 9 win seasons he would've gotten another shot, but he has just had sporadic success at Ohio.

I could figure out a way to talk myself into every coach named in here except Sean.

From the sounds of it a lot of the coaching staff has been/was pissed Bill put Sean in charge while he was out. So I don't think Sean could even put together a staff that would win in the Mountain West, let alone here.

Most of the others I could make myself see some positives.

Well they'd be delusional idiots. The only other coach, on this staff, anywhere close to more qualified to be an interim is Dana. Dana's failed stint at Wyoming doesn't make him more qualified either.

I think I posted $4m on KSO as the minimum figure we need to advertise the job for to attract candidates (rather than preemptively picking from the lol pool of like 5 questionable dudes with KS/Snyder ties) and select the best one. 

Looks like maybe we need to start at $5m.

Can't get excited about Rich Rod.

Also, interesting tidbit about his contract.

Quote
An Arizona donor has helped pad this deal further, offering up equity to Rodriguez, basketball coach Sean Miller and athletic director Greg Byrne. This “major university benefactor"—as outlined by the Board of Regents—has offered 500,000 units of a master limited partnership. Each unit is currently valued at $35.36 for a total of $17,680,000.

Rodriguez was granted 175,000 units of the 500,000, which equates to $6,188,000 right now. The only caveat for him to cash in on such options is that he has to stay at the school for eight years to receive this payout, whatever it becomes. If the price of the unit goes up in that time, his payout will go up; if the company struggles and the units drop in value, his payouts decrease.

I'm not a big Beilema fan.  Not the worst we could do, but the flopping against Alabama and some of his off the field stuff annoys me.  Even if you forgive his divisional SEC losses, he has some other real bad losses on his resume.  I also don't think he has a terribly high ceiling, particularly against B12 spread offenses.  He success was while the B10 was still playing a lot more ground and pound football.

Title: Re: Gross football coaches you would talk yourself in to
Post by: DQ12 on November 15, 2017, 11:26:50 AM
Doesn't have a high ceiling?  He won double digit games 4 of his 7 years at Wisconsin (12-1; 10-3; 11-2; 11-3). 

I acknowledge his record at Arkansas has been mediocre and he's had some bad losses, but give me Bielema over whatever flavor-of-the-year coach the MAC spits out this off-season. 

Plus he's a weirdo, which is a HUGE plus in my book.

He had some serious whiffs as he brought about a change in recruiting efforts at KSU.  Kids just did not work out and it helped lead to the slide that we saw after 2003 that led to the Snyder's first exit.  He may not have been here for that slide due to the moving on to Wisconsin, but his choices played into it.

I am not saying he would be an awful hire.  I am just noting there are issues of concern from his period in Manhattan.

Pretty sure he likes pro style offense with huge offensive linemen, two TE sets, down hill running, PA, etc.. Play some solid/physical D and I think that's a set up that could succeed in the current Big 12.

If we're going to go after failed Ark HC's, let's go all in and see if Bobby Petrino wouldn't be interested.

He's not headed to being just another grossly obese HC (and subsequent HUGE medical insurance premium)
He rides a Harley (possible be the lead rider for the next Harley Day)
He's .500 in bowl games
Has a career .71 winning percentage
and,

he gets himself fired so we wouldn't actually have to pay him like that other school in Ks has been doing (and we secretly did w/ RP)

Sounds like a win-win to me.

The ratings LOVED Bielema's 2nd and 3rd teams at Arkansas and I think we can attest his year 3 team was pretty good.

But the last two years, especially this one, have been very ugly.

Plus, he might want to keep Sean because his teams usually stink at special teams.

That 2014 team finished dead last in the SEC west, with 6 losses to teams ranked in the top 20.

In 2014 a decent K-State team was playing for the conference championship the last weekend of the season.

Winning the SEC East in '15 and '16 isn't a very remarkable feat.  Especially when you're Florida.

By the way, he lost to Bielema by 3 touchdowns last year.

Wasn't much of a rebuild.  UF won 7 games the year before he took over.  In year 3 he's 4*-6.

Top 10 recruiting classes for the 4 of the 5 years (one other was 23rd) before he got there.

Would take a special coach to rebuild after the lack of talent in that program when he got there.

You want Oregon's current head coach to be our offensive coordinator?  Yeah, sign me up.

And I mean, aside from Barnett's age (which is a huge issue), I think any hire will require Snyder's (at least tacit) blessing.  In that respect, Barnett (even independent of his age) would be a non-starter.  I'm fairly certain that Barnett and Snyder hate one another.  I'd be surprised if Barnett ever coached again, but he certainly will never be K-State's head coach.

I agree with this 100%. Especially if Leavitt comes in for 5-10 seasons and we go 8-4 or so regularly he could dispel the myth that only Snyder can win here. Of course we all want K-State to be awesome, but if a coach post Snyder can come in a have decent success (go to bowl games, win a big game maybe once a year, and flirt with or win a pepper every 5th or 10th year) we can more easily get the big sexy hire more easily after that. Plus Leavitt being older but not super old fits well in that he won't jump ship and won't be around too long either.

Though if we get Venables out of the gate then LFG

I’m a little torn. I actually like him personally and think he has a good vision for building a program. However, I think he is an average recruiter, though may fare better in Big 12 given his ties to program and fact that Alabama, Auburn, LSU et al suck all of the oxygen in recruiting. My biggest knock has been his inability to make in-game adjustments, prepare his guys to play on Saturday, and develop the players he does get.

If he thinks that Bret can do literally none of the things a HC is supposed to do he should be pretty pumped they’re moving on.

I think he has sort of a view similar to what some K-State fans had of Wooldridge. Of course, Bielema's "success" at Arkansas blows anything Wooly did out of the water.

But yeah, after I read his comments I'm not strongly against any thought of Bielema at K-State.

No idea why people think Leavitt was so successful at USF. In the 5 years he was in the Big East he had a sub-.500 conference record, and never finished better than t-3rd or ranked in the final AP poll.

I'm sure he could lead us to a couple of 7-6 seasons and maybe a Cactus Bowl win.

Nobody's claiming he turned it into some dynasty.  But he did build a program, completely from nothing, and make them respectable.  In short, he's a very good d-coordinator with solid HC experience.

I understand that sentiment, particularly in light of the (at least perceived) attitude of much of our current staff, but I'm not very concerned about that with leavitt.

I think he still has plenty of gas in his tank, especially given the passion he's exhibited for K-State.

In that sense he was successful. But his program hit a plateau once it entered a power conference. He would have a very low ceiling in the Big 12.

If he wants to come here as our D coordinator that would be fine, but no thanks on him being the HC.

He literally was the first coach of an 1-AA/FCS football team.  Got them to a BCS conference, and then "plateaued" at 8-9 win seasons.  Remind me of Brent's relevant head coaching experience again?

From what I've heard, there had been convos through the years between Bill and Jim, and also Currie and Jim. Probably just to gauge interest, but he felt he should put it in his contract.

Adding onto that, there have supposedly been zero convos for a while and definitely nothing since the Mustang showed up.

My cut off for coaches is Les Miles.  I think Les is weirder, not a shitty person, would win more than Bret, and we could definitely get him.

People also are giving him too much credit for playing in the SEC West.  There is no reason to think playing Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and Iowa State would lead to any more wins than playing Bama, Auburn, and LSU this year.

That's a fair point, and I agree that he would probably recruit better than Leavitt here, but BV also had the luxury of recruiting to OU and Clemson for the last 20 years.  I think it's unrealistic to think he could recruit at that level at K-State.

Recruiting is obviously important, but given K-State's inherent recruiting limitations (i.e. i don't foresee us ever being a top 10 recruiting destination), player development is also a huge factor. 

BV is still my number 1, but aside from their age difference (which is what, 10 years?) and the assumed recruiting benefits of BV, their experience/accomplishments are basically a wash. 

All I'm saying here is that if we were to fall-back to Leavitt, we're still getting a very solid coach.  We could do a lot worse.

Why not, he's looking and at this point will take any HC job that pays.  He used to be OSU's coach before he went to LSU.  So he knows how to win in the Big XII.

The merit to HCIW isn't to lock down Leavitt, but to appear to have a plan and hopefully improve recruiting.  Agree that it would make necessary staff changes harder.

I think Bill's restricting of his assistants from talking to the press would be a lot more infuriating if we had a HCIW that we all knew was basically coaching the team in Bill's place.

See, I would assume Bill wouldn't be giving up any control at all.

And Leavitt as interim would have been great for K-State football and great for Bill IMO. He looks dumb now going out and that is sad to me.

A HCIW made a ton of sense for the situation. Was the best argument in favor of the entire deal.

Honestly, I'm getting more pissed the more I think about it. We'd be moving forward right now. Now we continue to stagnate. Bill may set the program back worse than the last time he retired.

The idea that Bill rejected a good DC and hurt the program simply because he can’t accept Sean just being on staff rather than HC is infuriating. Seemed like positive outcome for everyone (except Bill I guess)

A friend of mine who is an Arkansas grad and fan said this about Bielema.

Quote
I’m a little torn. I actually like him personally and think he has a good vision for building a program. However, I think he is an average recruiter, though may fare better in Big 12 given his ties to program and fact that Alabama, Auburn, LSU et al suck all of the oxygen in recruiting. My biggest knock has been his inability to make in-game adjustments, prepare his guys to play on Saturday, and develop the players he does get.

Well that's a ringing endorsement.  :lol: can't get the most out of his players and doesn't adjust. Where do I sign up?

I'm saying that that guy calling him an "average recruiter" is probably off-base.  Bert didn't work out at Arkansas.  No doubt about it.  But that's kind of a shitty job.  Petrino did well there, but it's a tough job.  K-State is an easier spot to win at, in my imo.

I don't care if he called him the world's best recruiter, he can't coach. How do you figure it's easier to win at K-State than it is at Arkansas? Is it the four non cons, the getting to play A&M on a neutral field every year, or the unbalanced schedule?

I figure it's easier to win at K-State than it is at Arkansas because according to Sagarin, Arkansas' SOS has been significantly tougher than K-State's during Bielema's tenure.

2017
Ark: 21 K-State: 62

2016
Ark: 11 K-State: 39

2015
Ark: 6 K-State: 51

2014
Ark: 4 K-State: 34

2013
Ark: 12 K-State: 34

2012:
Ark: 9 K-State: 14

ARK: 10.5 K-State 39

I mean, in today's landscape, Wisky would've been playing in the Big ten champ game to be in the CFP playoffs 3 of his 7 years there.

And as well as Petrino did at Arky, the best he finished was in a tie 2nd place in the division (3rd or worse the other years). The SEC west has been brutal for awhile now.

I think he made some valid points. But also partially misguided. K-State is a hard job....but that's because coaching is a hard job. Almost anywhere. It's been proven time and time again that even with great advantages, sub-par coaches will get their asses handed to them from lesser schools with better coaches. We can't miff a coaching hire, but neither can Nebraska (his example) or any other school. And as far as Nebraska having a hard time, try not firing two coaches (Pelini, that other guy who's at Ohio somewere) who had reasonable success. And then when you do, don't rough ridin' hire that guy from Oregon State who basically was always a crap coach.

It's been reported Kevin Sumlin will be out after this weekend's game against LSU.
Not that gross! Would take enthusiastically

If the reports are true about Sumlin, he may need a year off first.

What reports are these? He and his coaches were completely caught off guard.

I misspoke, meant rumors, not reports.  Lot of rumors of problem drinking.   I don’t think that should disqualify him, but I do think he wouldn’t be at his best right at first after quitting (should that be in the Cards)

Would probably throw in the racist part before that.

If he loses to LSU he will have a .520 conference record in 6 years.

With the exception being one of them has won a P5 conference title and wins in conference at a far greater clip?

Not a huge difference in their P5 conference records.  Going into this weekend Sweaty is .585 and Thirsty is .532 in conference.

Sweaty's conference title was impressive that season and I do believe he's the better overall coach.  Just saying Thirsty isn't all that far behind.

I would argue that most fans would prefer Gary's collection of extreme good and bad seasons to Thirsty's consistent mediocrity.

I think you're right and I would prefer the same.

It would be interesting to see how Thirsty would fare in the Big 12 though.  This conference seems to suit his style a little better.

The most annoying phenomenon of the 2017 college football season is the weekly notification I get from twitter when 10 or so people I follow like a clip from Leach's press availability.

College football coaches are so dull that this dude gives recycled takes on candy corn and weddings and people act like that dude is one of the original kings of comedy.
