Title: The Nightmare Is Over!
Post by: steve dave on December 03, 2009, 08:31:13 PM
The only coach that will ever be able to win at ku is finally gone.  We succeeded by tricking them into thinking he sucked.  Honestly, I didn't think we had it in us.  I mean, I knew they paid a sh1tload of attention to us but I didn't know they took us into consideration to the extent that they obviously did.  I will PM all KSU fans on how to attack the next coach via BBS based on his greatness/suckiness.  Let's hope he isn't a hall of famer like Mark Mangino though.  It was hard talking him down as a garbage coach for as long as we did.

anybody that has been here for a while knows how much of a mangino fan i am. i have thought that he was behind the ksu and the ou success for years. long and windy response below and for that i apoligize.

it becomes public knowledge that he is leaving ksu when we're ranked #1 and about ready to play for a national championship. couple of years go by and then we kind of start to stink. he moves to ou and they win a national championship and then after he leaves...gradually start to not be as good. five losses this year for them. he then takes ku. ku, of all schools to a freaking orange bowl and they win the thing. amazing that he is gone. incredible day for kstate fans everywhere.

It's remarkable how ku got a total steal in the first place with Mangino and after having him in Lawrence for eight years nothing to show for it. They are literally right back to where they started in 2002. :thumbsup:

Love the scrolling blurb on ESPN tonight about Mangino winning as many bowl games since 2005 as the program has in the previous 101 years.  That covers 35 ku coaches by my count.  He also had the best winning percentage of any ku coach since 1953.  Back-to-back bowl games for the first time in ku history, with a .500 or better win percentage 3 years in a row...missing a 4th by only one win.  Oh and he hates KSU more than any ku fan ever could, putting the bullseye on the Cats (4-4 at ku and 3-0 at OU vs. KSU).  He was also 4-4 vs. Mizzou during the Tigers' best era since the 1960's.

But he's fat, so they fire him?

Isn't this clearly where you want to come coach? (http://www2.kusports.com/news/2007/nov/28/mangino_nets_coachyear_award_bonus/?football)

They treat you so well here. (http://sportsbybrooks.com/kansas-coach-mark-mangino-named-home-depot-coach-of-the-year-14945)

Who wouldn't want to be supported like Mangino was? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=du3t-ImIgc8&feature=related)

Question; has any coach ever gone from National Coach of the Year to fired as quickly as Mangino?  Tuberville at Auburn was fired 4 years after his NCOY, but they are actually a football program with history and expectations and stuff.  Mangino going from NCOY to fired in 2 seasons has to be a record.  Has to be.  Especially at a program that had never had back to back bowl games in its history.

I know Solich didn't win NCOY.  Nubbs fired him for a 9 win season.  But Solich didn't beat his wife, players, and officials.  Ok your right uk is a bunch of retards firing the '07 COY.

23-41 at ku is like 37-9 at KSU.  Winning in Lawrence is damn near impossible.  No future coach will ever have that high of a Big 12 winning percentage at ku.

I know I just let out a big sigh of relief.  The only threat to our return to dominance is now gone.  Amazing what Mangino was able to do with that garbage program.  What's even better is the way that ku treated Mangino assures us that no more good coaches will even consider ku.

I mean really, he's been successful wherever he's gone.  K-State, OU, ku.  He took their garbage program to a 12 win season and an orange bowl win.  WTF were they thinking when they decided it was a good idea to push out the best thing to ever to happen to their program!?  I can't believe the incompetence.

This is a very good thing for emaw football indeed.  One more guaranteed W every year.  In-State recruits back to having only one viable local option for school.  I'm thrilled, personally.

Great job making this happen K-Statriots.  But really, we should give credit to Snyder, the real mastermind behind this.  There's no doubt we couldn't have made this happen if he hadn't beaten the genius that is Mangino this year.

Honestly, they fire a guy basically because he isn't soft enough as a football coach. Interesting logic...

Their biggest problem pre-Mangino was everyone in the conference knew they were not tough, that you could basically push them around all over the field. Mangino arrives and they are suddenly a little less pussy - actually become a mediocre force in the conference...

Bill should totally get Mangino into the Vanier Complex just preparing us to demolish uk on the ground...

I've heard rumors of Jim Harbaugh, but see no way he is leaving Stanford for uk, especially when ND may come calling...

You guys are silly.  I agree that it is difficult for any coach at a Kansas school to win a BCS bowl game.........ask Old Balls.  Outside of that achievement for which I give Fat Man a good dose of credit, his other achievements are definitely within reach by the next coach assuming we hire any one of the names that are being floated around currently.  By the way, Sweet Lew deserves much credit for getting us in the Orange Bowl in the first place. 

Have fun the next two years!  You are the onset of demensia away from enjoying more Ron Prince like seasons.

As far as we know Lew is not responsible for any wrongdoing in getting us to the Orange Bowl (although I don't put it past him).  He did campaign actively before the Big Twelve Title game.   Missouri was a better team that year and deserved to go to the Orange Bowl.  Having said that, we went out and won the game, something K-state's glory years couldn't accomplish.  I enjoyed every fracking minute of that game.

Dear Steven David,

Next time please focus your mind altering meditations on Lew Perkin's himself. Convince him to quit his job at ku and come work full-time as the athletic director for Kansas State University.

Wouldn't it be nice to have an athletic director that cared about the success and actively promoted the athletic programs of your favorite institution. I think this would be a much more reasonable and effective use of your powers.

When can you start?

Really what did Lew do?  Give away ticket at home games so the stands looked packed, did he buy off the Orange bowl comm.  I know he had his mafia buddies in Miami squeeze the comm. by threating their families.  :ohno: Your right he does deserves all the credit.

When we came up with the plan to make ku fans and admin think Mangino was terrible 8 or so years ago, I'll be honest, I didn't think they would fall for it.  I also didn't think our fanbase had enough stick-to-it-iveness to keep it going but, by God, we did it.  Three cheers to all the EMAWs that took part and made this day a reality.   :kstatriot:




SD with retards like the one above this isn't that hard to believe. 

As far as we know Lew is not responsible for any wrongdoing in getting us to the Orange Bowl (although I don't put it past him).  He did campaign actively before the Big Twelve Title game.   Missouri was a better team that year and deserved to go to the Orange Bowl.  Having said that, we went out and won the game, something K-state's glory years couldn't accomplish.  I enjoyed every fracking minute of that game.

The humor of this thread is how K-state fans are responsible for brainwashing "retards" like me into calling for Mangino's head.  

It worked.  ku fired the best coach it will ever have.  Score one for the mind-melters.

There is something about you I'm not fond of Limestone.

It's his enormous biceps, isn't it?

Stay the course.  Remember, this is just phase I.

(http://www.dog-ebook-center.com/pugs/checkmark_box_large_red.png) Phase I - trick ku fans into thinking coach Mark Mangino is a bad coach and get him fired.

(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2624/4171934843_2c70e68025_m.jpg)  Phase II - trick ku fans into thinking new garbage coach that they hire is really good, thus persuading them to keep him forever.

The campaign went so well. I remember thinking two years ago when all we had was "He's so fat" that this isn't going to work. But each reminder was a drip of sulfuric acid eating away at his fan base it was as porous as a bee comb.
Well done, fellow EMAWers, well done.

And may I be the first to state I live in absolute dread of the program-building architect big Lew will bring to Lawrence.

I think you forgot about Phase IV.

Phase IV - pretend to disclose the phases but really they aren't the real phases they are just phases to make the ku people think they know the phases but they don't.

What phase is the:  Bag on coaching choice purposely so as to expose the tru believers and then agree with them, fake admonish self for ever thinking the choice was bad and emphatically agree it was a great hire . . . maybe the best hire ever . .  . end with another, "I just don't what I was thinking".

The remaining phases of mind control should not be difficult--most of the fan base believes Lawrence to be a cultural mecca, which, compared to Peru, Kansas, it is.  So, if you can make a dump like Lawrence seem dreamy, the ku fan base will have no trouble pretending like their football coach hire will be monumental.  Just tell them it is, and they will believe.  Better yet, if you can get someone the ku fan base respects to say it, it will be believed until death, or until another ku authority tells them that the coach is abusive and should be run out of town on a rail.
