Currie isn't hiring Sean. 

Who are some hot coordinators that our HFBIQ-types would like to see?

MIR made a pretty compelling case that we won't hire a coach w/o head coaching experience

[Belvis Noland]

Oh.   So who are some guys with such experience?

Peggy Po: A non-Sean coach gets us say, 20 wins over a 2 season span probably leaves for another gig. Sean would not if he did that.

CF3, you are a good poster, but that Is unconfident loser syndrome you described.

[Mr Bread]

Is no one else alarmed by the proliferation of yard dog socks?  He's almost half the board now.

I have never heard of a player getting ejected for a bat hitting a catcher.  Who in the eff believes that? (Sean, I guess).  I have seen kids get called out 'cause of it though......

If Sean does not know the rules for 12 < baseball, he does not know didly poo about major college football....IMO

Currie is not hiring Sean.

He is not hiring anyone on staff.

He is not hiring a sexy coordinator.

He is not hiring any current coach at another university.

He is hiring someone who is known for mediocrity.  Someone who had 9 wins the last few seasons and then got fired for mediocrity.  We get Bo, you guys.

I like cf3's story

I do too, but it doesn't factor into my thoughts on why he should or shouldn't be the next coach at K-State. I think a lot of football coaches would behave like he did around kids' baseball.

That said, I don't know why any decent coordinator or high level assistant would want to work for Sean. I mean, he's been a football ops guy most of his "coaching" life and handled punters and kickers. His dad finally let him "take over" special teams the last few years, but I simply don't think he's qualified at all to be a head coach at a Power 5 school. If at some point during his career he had left and become a real assistant or coordinator with some success maybe he'd be a consideration, but he never has done anything like that.

Young up and comers!

Another thing about assistants, I feel like if we took Sean we would get him at a garbage HC salary and that means asst. coaches also get garbage salaries so we are less attractive.  Similar to what KU has done.

The myth of paying a HC low money so he can overspend on staff is pretty common, except when Frank got Delonte which doesn't get enough credit as an insanely intelligent move.

Well, that was a no-brainer. Giving Hill the money took some balls.

[Fedor]

Ok so Huggins = best move
Paying assistants = ballsiest

This makes me think of a good question: Who is our football Huggins? Tressel I guess.

[Cire]

Tressel was only good because he cheated his ass off everywhere he was.  He won't be able to at KSU with ADJC

[Katpappy]

Real talk. Do we hold the Auburn game against Sean and therefore he can't be the coach?

Let's see, K-State has a kicker who is nearly automatic last year and kicked some huge FGs, has a bad night in a game where everyone seemed to make stupid mistakes (Lockett, really?), and by the next game replaces the guy with another near-automatic kicker.

And you think this talking point is a knock on Sean?

I'm not quite on the Sean-for-head-coach bandwagon, but you cannot deny K-State's special teams have been one of the most consistently exceptional aspects of K-State's team over the last few years.

If the other units were as good as special teams, we would be in the top 4 and playing to win the CFP.

I would feel really good about having a coach like Tressel run the show.

Giving Te a huge raise to secure MB and BW was just so smart I won't call it ballsy, it was pure genius.  Those 2 players changed everything for a decade for a team that needed EXACTLY that.

We will never hire Tressel so not a real option

[millertime]

Bill isn't retiring this year so none of this even matters.
