Great Hire!
For State fans that is. :D

I was a bit worried with Tubberville. You guys might have actually had a chance to save what Mangino did for your football program.

Let's just pretend for a second that Jim Harbaugh does take the job. What happens in a year or two when Rich Rod gets canned from Michigan? Usually you don't worry too much about a coach leaving because that would mean they had great success. But in this case he'd be likely to leave in a year or two and probably before he has any real success at Kansas.

jfc, this is absolutely stupid. he'd have to have success if michigan was going to hire him away. and if he had enough success for that to happen, finding another guy won't be that difficult. harbaugh would be an excellent hire.

Which is exactly why he'd never leave stanford for ku. if he maintains success in stanford, he will be the next coach at michigan. doesn't make for good business sense to leave now and start over, when a high profile job is all but his.

I guess I should have said that it doesn't make sense in the long-term. He won't have near the success at uk.

off to the... wait, do stanford fans even care enough about sports and football to have a message board? if they do someone needs to go post the lind to phog and shiv on it.
perhaps leftcoastcat can help us out here

It really isn't that difficult to have success in the big 12 north (especially given ku's upcoming conference schedule for the next 2 years). I mean, ksu was one game away from the conference championship game. On top of all that, he's going to get paid probably about 6-7million more over the life of the contract at ku than he would if he stayed at stanford.
-
I just checked 5 Stanford message boards and the only post about ku was telling ku fans to quit dreaming and only had 3 posts.
-

you conveinetely leave out the fact that you still play south opponents, and literally have no chance to win the conference because texas/ou are staring you down in the dr. pepper game.

next year they play @BU, A&M, and OSU. North is KSU, @ISU, CU, @NU, kc-MU. That's an easy schedule. easier to win the Big 12 conference from the North than to win the Pac 10 at Stanford.

mascott's latest post:
This is not something that is 100% at all. Just what I was told by a decent source. One that has been pretty spot on thus far. I just got additional info from him. None of which has been confirmed by any additional sources as of yet. By none I mean NONE.
Basically he said an offer is on the table but ku does have fear of the Michigan buyout possibility in the future. Still talking to other guys, but JH is #1 target. (remember this is source talking, not me) Holtz, Gill, and others are still in mix.
I am working my arse off to get another source on this. Lucky I got anything this morning. This particular source usually text me but for some reason he emailed today. My new 'Droid' was jacked up and didn't work all morning until about 40 minutes ago. Kinda strange.

Why does everybody just assume he'll take the Michigan job? He burned a ton of bridges there, and half the people in the AD's office hate him because of the comments he made.
For reference:
http://thewizardofodds.blogspot.com/2007/08/they-arent-about-to-forget-jim-harbaugh.html
That's not to say that he wouldn't leave for greener pastures. But to act like he's gone as soon as Michigan opens up might require a bit more research.

If that's what it costs to get a coach of Harbaugh's caliber (dude is a total pussy and has won nothing) to Lawrence . . . effing PATHETIC. LOL at Lew Perkins

Kansas:
FootballCoachScoop has BREAKING NEWS and the FIRST TO REPORT that Stanford Head Coach Jim Harbaugh is negotiating a contract with Athletic
Director Lew Perkins to be the new Head Coach of the Kansas Jayhawks. Our sources tell us that Harabugh will be named the new Head Coach at ku
when the contract details are worked out and finalized this weekend. According to our source he will be paid between $2.5 Million and 2.75 Million.
-
I don't get why he's such a hot name. 1 winning season. Pac 10 sucks this year. If he comes to ku he'll suck. Mark my words he won't have a &@#%ing clue. Mangino would coach rings around him. Gill, Edsall, and Holtz would all be better for hte program.
Welcome Jim!!!

The money might be better spent hiring Toby Gerhart. :dunno:
-
Absolutely baffled as to why Harbaugh would take the ku job. Stanford has more prestige and a much stronger athletics tradition. Stanford has enough money to pay him whatever he wants. (Maybe they don't think he's worth it?) Stanford is a national brand that can routinely pull in 4-star recruits; ku not so much. Why on earth would he leave Palo Alto for Lawrence?
I guess maybe the wife has something on him? :dunno:
...if this actually happens.

He's 17-19 overall at Stanford and 13-14 in the Pac 10. Did I miss something?

i don't think Stanford pays coaches v well. they get big donations from outside the athletic dept

The QB is pretty good there as well.
This hire will get people donating money. He'll be the anti Mangino and will have no problem shaking hands and kissing baby's at alumni functions. Lew will get his grid iron club with this hire. Just look at the phog/shiver/slant. They are all moist at the rumor and ready to open there checkbooks before he puts any kind of product on the field. I'm all for blind faith in football as well, especially since we'll likely go back to sucking when Snyder is gone.
But it will be interesting to see what Harbaugh does with his personnel if he goes to Kansas. Another reason why he may take the job, look at ku's schedule the next two years in conference. Relatively easy no tech, ou, texas...perfect to build up the resume for the NFL. (which is where i think he goes even if he is mediocre at ku)
Jim was after the NY Jets job supposedly this past off season
Good Hire for the purpose you are wanting Lew :thumbsup:

LOL at ku ok with paying a coach 2.75 mill/per with a losing record. :lol:

They're bathing in money out there. Stanford has the third largest endowment in the nation:
1. Harvard
2. Yale
3. Stanford
4. Princeton
Even given the distinction between academics and athletics, I'd think Stanford could find the money to match ku's offer -- if they thought Harbaugh was worth it.
And Stanford has 111 national championships, so they care a bit about sports, too.

Stanford has a lot of national championships, yes, but most are spread across sports other than the big two that you spend money on.
Stanford doesn't like to spend a lot of money athletically, so they wouldn't match ku's offer even if they did feel Harbaugh "was worth it."
-
the Harbaugh situation isn't one of whether or not he wants to continue at Stanford. he needs to be available when the Bears come calling. if he sign a multiyear at ku then Tubby Smith is gets fired after this year, it will make it hard from Harbaugh to get out of his commitment to ku. or Smith gets fired after next season, it's still a tough situation to get out of. on the flip side, he stays in Palo Alto and waits it out, he can leave for Chicago whenever.

why would Stanford spend the money? They would just have to up it next year and the following, and the next, and so on. ku is spending the big bucks to get Harbaugh there for the recognition.
If they were going for proven coach/commodity Tubberville would be sitting on the runway at KCI waiting for an announcement at the airport. Instead they want a revenue generator that has shown an ability to coach and be a little above mediocre (which is much more than we at Kstate can hope for). Again, great job on the hire for what you want Lew :thumbsup:
-
Stanford won't pay they are known for that. They care almost as much about swimming, golf, gymnastics etc as they do football and bball. At least they try to pretend that they do for appearance sake.
He would be a good hire but I still think the risk is that he bolts in a short amount of time. If they do this deal there needs to be a big finanacial block to him leaving within the first two seasons. People can call me stupid if they want but it is damaging for a program when a guy comes and leaves after a year or two espcially in football. If he builds something and then leaves that isn't a big deal but that is going to take at least 3 years. I get the feeling that if he comes to ku it would be so he could make more money then he would at stanford until he gets the job he really wants.

Harbaugh is a great hire. I'll go ahead and assume that if you're a kid and could go play for young hotness or old balls, you're going to go play for young hotness. and I'm not talking about just kansas kids. the kc media is going to fall all over themselves for Jim.

it's his "passion" shining through. dude's a monster. put a visor on him and he's...he's...venzy. the north should let ku win next year so he'll have a nice record and then hope RichRod tanks so Michigan will take him away. :ohno:

I would like to think that OBz record with putting d00ds in the league would compensate for Mr. 13-16. I don’t care if uk gets Harbaugh - I am just glad they didn't get Tubs.

JFC...we thought this about Prince/Franklin/Morris
holy cow....recruiting dynamos, they were not
But completely agree it's a good hire. But if I've got Tommy Tubberville saying he wants the job. The only other interview i'm doing is Ron Prince, so i get the BCA off my butt. Basically a National Champion (undefeated in the SEC), knows KS Juco's, recruits Arkansas/GA/FL/Texas/AL/TN, basically has a staff that will follow him where ever he wants them to. But he's not the charismatic money maker that Jim Harbaugh will be. Good hire for want Lew needs.
-
Wasn't Harbaugh a #1 pick? He spent enough years in the NFL that I find it hard to believe that $1M vs. $2.5M would be that big of a deal for a job (either ku or Stanford) that you only intend on being at for another year, or two at the most. If he takes the job...it isn't for the money.
-
the Harbaugh situation isn't one of whether or not he wants to continue at Stanford. he needs to be available when the Bears come calling. if he sign a multiyear at ku then Tubby Lovie Smith is gets fired after this year, it will make it hard from Harbaugh to get out of his commitment to ku. or Smith gets fired after next season, it's still a tough situation to get out of. on the flip side, he stays in Palo Alto and waits it out, he can leave for Chicago whenever.

People in Chicago hate Jim Harbaugh. Ditka (who = god in ChiTown) ran his cry baby azz out of town 15 years ago.

no, we convinced ourselves of this with no proof whatsoever because none of them had ever accomplished anything in their coaching career. I posted this a few days ago, but....
Harbaugh: overall record as a head coach 46-25, beat #24 Washington, #7 oregon, #11 USC, took Stanford which hadn't had a winning season in the 5 years prior to his arrival and has them at 8-4 in 3 years.
No one knew Prince or Raheem or James Franklin (except sucky Josh Freeman). Everyone knows Harbaugh. Everyone.

That's typically where the majority of a coaches salary comes at every school. No state is going to pay a coach millions of dollars. Especially right now. The vast majority of the money is usually private sources. Now, with Standford being a private school, maybe they do just pay the guy. But I seriously doubt it.

harbaguh is 13-14. he didn't even recruit gerhardt. his qb is there because his parents understand how big of a deal a stanford degree is in our world.

Franklin was a salty recruiter at Maryland, Princess was pretty solid at UVA. HC wise, your are 100% correct. I agree Harbaugh is a solid hire, but i think I'm sure Lew was looking for name recognition over substance.

Stanford - 17-19
Tubberville
Ole Miss - 25-20
Auburn - 85-40 (5 division titles) (1 conference title *SEC* :love:) and he understands what 1 bad hire on the staff can destroy your program. :nono:
Think we have a shot at Tubberville when Snyder leaves? (probably not

Harbaugh is a great hire. I'll go ahead and assume that if you're a kid and could go play for young hotness or old balls, you're going to go play for young hotness. and I'm not talking about just kansas kids. the kc media is going to fall all over themselves for Jim.
JFC...we thought this about Prince/Franklin/Morris
holy cow....recruiting dynamos, they were not
no, we convinced ourselves of this with no proof whatsoever because none of them had ever accomplished anything in their coaching career. I posted this a few days ago, but....

he's 13-14. he won at a 1-aa school.
everyne knew about charlie weiss as well.
young hotness. w/ a heisman canidate RB (and Doak Walker award winner). he's going to get to strut around on ESPN for an hour, then a press conference on monday to announce his hiring. couldn't have worked out any more perfect for ku.
catzacker, like i've said before. you're a little bitch.
you will make any weird ammeds to your argument.
harbaguh is 13-14. he didn't even recruit gerhardt. his qb is there because his parents understand how big of a deal a stanford degree is in our world.
Harbaugh's a monster. He can recruit and coach'em up. We should just focus on basketball.

Wasn't Harbaugh a #1 pick? He spent enough years in the NFL that I find it hard to believe that $1M vs. $2.5M would be that big of a deal for a job (either ku or Stanford) that you only intend on being at for another year, or two at the most. If he takes the job...it isn't for the money.
Unless you have a voracious apetite for coke.

Dude was a #1 pick in 1987. Never made an active roster after 2000. No way he made enough money to look at 1.5 mil and think it's not important. It a million and a half god damn dollars. Just cause a dude might have a couple million in the bank doesn't mean he wouldn't like to have a few more. He's not &@#%ing Warren Buffett here. And even if he was, you think Warren Buffett wouldn't want an extra 1.5 million per year, even with his billions?

I would already be sitting in my new office in Lawrence if i were him. Or have the moving truck sitting outside my house at least.

Why wouldn't we have a shot at Tuberville? He wanted the ku job so why wouldn't he want the K-State job?

Cost of living is crazy in Palo Alto too. If there is one place where you can make 1.2 million and really not be wealthy it is out there. Don't get me wrong it's still a nice living and all but an average run of the mill house is probably going to run about a million bucks out there.

he'll be coaching somewhere by the time snyder leaves is more what i was getting at.

read somewhere that the AD has setup some kind of housing arrangements for coaches (no freaking clue what it meant, didn't go into much for details)

ku fans really setting themselves up for a fall, way worse than "its patterson" b/c we "got" Snyder so most KSU fans were at worst lukewarm on it, least not totally crushed. but to go from harbaugh to gill would be a disaster for everyone involved overthere. feel bad for gill, he's gonna get a raw deal, but thats the game and lew is pretty evil and plays the game well. all or nothing for ku fans here.

Denial is a b!otch.

The money might be better spent hiring Toby Gerhart. :dunno:
The QB is pretty good there as well.
This hire will get people donating money. He'll be the anti Mangino and will have no problem shaking hands and kissing baby's at alumni functions. Lew will get his grid iron club with this hire. Just look at the phog/shiver/slant. They are all moist at the rumor and ready to open there checkbooks before he puts any kind of product on the field. I'm all for blind faith in football as well, especially since we'll likely go back to sucking when Snyder is gone.
But it will be interesting to see what Harbaugh does with his personnel if he goes to Kansas. Another reason why he may take the job, look at ku's schedule the next two years in conference. Relatively easy no tech, ou, texas...perfect to build up the resume for the NFL. (which is where i think he goes even if he is mediocre at ku)
Jim was after the NY Jets job supposedly this past off season
Good Hire for the purpose you are wanting Lew :thumbsup:
This is the most level headed post I've read on this thread along with catzacker. If Harbaugh does in fact take the job and he is not just using the offer to get more money at Stanford, he very well may be in the NFL (Bears in two years). The Grid Iron club will be built. His record over the next two years will be respectable partly due to the schedule and ku won't feel shy about targeting high profile candidates for his replacement. Win-Win.

Some observations about the Harbaugh situation from the "ground":
1. Stanford has about 17 fans who care about football. The other 10K are still making fun of Cal fans for not getting into stanford.
2. Stanford is loaded with $$. However, they are cheap. Won't even give free gym access to hospital docs :mad:
3. 13-14...and Toby did all of the work. Pick reminds me of alan evridge
However
4. Its 60 degrees in palo alto...on a cool day...in january
5. Someone as beautiful as harbaugh deserves beautiful california mistresses...of different colors....
You know, its nice to taste ice-cream of different flavors
6. Any kid with any brain and athletic ability goes to stanford
7. Jesus, its ku??? its easier to beat cal or wazzu than face pinkel every year
-
Good hire for ku if true.
Good for K-State as well, Jim won't run some kind of hard to defense spread, look at the sideline chuck and duck offense like Mangino did. Harbaugh will run a style of offense that the K-State defense will see nearly every day in practice from their own offense . . . possibly even a little more conservative at times.
I'd say one red flag is the fact that Stanford had a Heisman Candidate lining up in the backfield and still got worked by a very average Cal team at home, and barely beat a 6-6 Notre Dame team. I'll glady take ku with Harbaugh over somebody like Sumlin.
-
Harbaugh is the fancy pick this year with absolutely no track record of long term success on his resume.
His name being thrown around this year discredits the total suckage that was Stanford every year prior to this one..and he rode a running back he never recruited all the way.
Sounds like a perfect fit for ku actually.

Get it done Lew!

dude, stanford hadn't had a winning season in the 5 years prior to his arrival and he got them to 8-4 in 3 years and beat ranked teams in the process. he's, at worst, another mangino. meanwhile, chris cosh is out recruiting no one (besides his next of kin) right now, vic is trying like hell to get out of manhattan, and it's going on a decade since snyds landed an impact qb.

Nice run y'all had.
Enjoy him for two years

2.8 mil goes a lot farther in Lowrents.
This. 1 mill in BSFBA(beautiful san francisco bay area) is peanuts. 2.8 mill in flyover country is Scroodgeville.

uk fans are hilarious:
ryanmgreene Man, if #Harbaugh comes to #ku , no one will be licking their chops more than Toben Opurum. He's the EXACT SAME player as Toby Gerhart!!!
gavinesq @wyntonmarsalis Word on the street is that you're a big fan of #kufball. Is Harbaugh the right guy for the Jayhawkks?
gavinesq @KimCattrall Word is you're a huge #Jayhawks and #kufball fan. What do you think of the pending Harbaugh hire? Personally, I love it.
gavinesq @FreddiePrinzeJr You've GOT to be a #kufball fan. Is Harbaugh the right guy?
-
I'll just say this. I don't think it is a slam-dunk hire(ala Tubberville, Patterson, etc.) I do think it is a good hire, and if I were a ku fan I would be pleased.

Losing record as a 1-A coach and at least one DUI, solid fit at ku

I agree with all points.
Hiring JH accomplishes two things:
1) You prove you can go out and hire an "it" coach who's stock is as high as it's probably ever going to get
2) Hiring said coach allows you to raise the money you need to complete the facility upgrades you've planned
Harbaugh shouldn't scare the average KSU fan in terms of strategic ability, recruiting ability, etc. He's pretty 'meh' overall. But hiring him allows you to accomplish some big picture things that set you up over the long haul because most ku fans/donors aren't savvy enough to know the difference.
It's crazy how long-term planning and strategic thinking works.

d-d-did you say there was a better cost on orange juice, parmasian cheese and frozen corn? Well, all of that might sway some folks, but from what I have heard, JH isn't moving ANYWHERE until he can get a better deal on toothpaste!!! As you know, personal hygene is of utmost importance to the Harbaugh family.

Good hire for ku strange move by Harbaugh. I wonder how the national media is going to react to this? Every national guy I've heard has laughed at the possiblity of him going to ku. Probably going to paint him as a guy just jumping for the money and talk about the lack of honor in the coaching profession these days.
Just kind of crazy he'd leave an 8-4 team with a top 20 class coming in to go to a team that finished last in the big 12 North. Everyone talks about ku's schedule next year but to me they're still underdogs to all three south teams they play given what Baylor and A&M return and given the overall talent level of OSU. This is a last place team hard to say that they get to play the easy teams next season when everyone was better then they were this year and they graduate a lot of skill.

the harbaugh hire pretty much shows how completely retarded our administration (and fan base) have been. it's simply amazing the clown suit that lew has put on ksu athletics the moment he stepped on ku's campus. hopefully because currie isn't a mouth breather like most of our fan base, he'll be different.
