A small shakeup on LHC Bill Snyder’s coaching staff may be in the works. According to multiple sources, Kansas State quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator Del Miller has accepted a retirement incentive package from Kansas State and will be replaced on the coaching staff by former K-State quarterback Collin Klein. Klein served as quarterbacks coach at Northern Iowa this past season after previously serving as a graduate assistant at K-State. Klein played at K-State from 2009-2012, leading the Wildcats to the Big 12 championship in 2012.

An official announcement is expected from K-State next week.

And as much as people go after Miller, I think he did tons more than Mo the last several years.

To me, this seems like the biggest signal that Bill has now gained an appreciation for his own mortality.  I mean, "nudging" Del and Mo out?  This is basically Bill inviting the family over to his home to put name tags on the stuff they want to inherit.

No joke. Let's hope Mo accepts the retirement incentive package too. We would be replacing two coaches on the staff who are non-existent on the recruiting trail.

Hopefully CK is on the sidelines and provides a good communication channel between the players and Dimel.

Also, maybe CK will have the balls to have in-game input during the 1 or 2 games a year Dimel chokes.

Maybe it is something he asked for. He's taking a job for an 80 year old man with cancer, after all. Surely he wants some sense that he won't be out of a job if Bill has to retire next week.

True, I guess it makes sense for the university to allow that to happen since he's so EMAW. Just surprising.

Is this the thread where we talk again about how many recruits didn't come here the last several years because of the uncertainty of Bill retiring/dying and no formal plan in place to ease any concerns?  :buh-bye:

I'd enjoy that a lot. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I think having recently past stars on staff can only help KSU in recruiting at least. Also having been through Snyders system. I'll hope for more CK7s.

You can get good recruiters at these positions. I'm not necessarily worried about the hire, but I'm sure there are potential hires that could be generate more excitement.

Quote
Local take: “Bringing back one of K-State's all-time greats to coach his former position is a win-win for the Wildcats. For the immediate roster, Klein's success within the system is unparalleled and is considered one of LHC Bill Snyder's smartest pupils. Having been with the team in a different role two seasons ago, he's also already familiar with both incumbent starter Jesse Ertz and future star Skylar Thompson, meaning there won't be typical time spent building relationships or acclimating to style. On the recruiting trail is where the Wildcats may receive the biggest boost though. The youngest staff member at just 27 years old, Klein possesses the rare opportunity to enter locations where prospects may be unaware of the K-State program and instantly bring interest to the table based on his name alone. A seamless acquisition from every angle, this was a natural promotion that's been in the cards since the moment Klein expressed interest in coaching.” – Ryan Wallace, GoPowercat.com

Farrell’s take: "Klein returns to Manhattan, where he was a star quarterback and Heisman darkhorse. He not only knows Kansas State well but he’s young and can relate well to recruits having just graduated in 2012. I have a feeling he’s going to be a big addition to this staff."

Farrell’s grade: B
