Title: 'Ol Ballz
Post by: snydlie on February 04, 2010, 04:59:13 PM
I still find it strange that 'Ol Ballz, makin over 2 Mil a year, gives Grandson a Full Ride Schollie.
He can afford to pay for the kids schooling!
It seems more appropriate to publicly say....."since I make 2 Mil a year, I'll pay for Tattor Tots schooling and award this Ship to an athlete that needs it more...............
Nepotism runs DEEP at the Vanier complex!!   :jerkoff: :jerkoff:

Yeah we've been discussing this ever since we found out that Snyder even had a grandson named Tate (like three months ago). The Tate Snyder career @ K-State will be a VERY fun one to judge though (you know what I mean? Just like sit back & watch). Should be fun...

Was relieved to see that Tot had bulked up to 206 lbs.  170 was pretty redic'.

Dude Snyder doesn't make 2.0 million he makes like 1.8 or something like that.   So I can see why he feels the need to give Tate a full boat in these tough economic times.

Yeah, there are tons of 5-heart studs around just waiting to come to ksu without a scholarship...not.  Offering was the only way we could get the kid in purple.

Not sure, but I'm guessing that a Head Coach paying for a kids tuition, MIGHT be some violation of NCAA rules.  :dunno:  uk would have had Danny Manning and Mario Chalmers as walk-ons and just upped Daddy's salary if you could do that.

This talking point has been beaten like a dead horse.  Of course it wreaks of nepotism, get over it!  Last time Snyder gave a nepo-ship we ended up with an AA Punter. 

Wasn't this kid 6A all-state?  He can't be that friggin' bad.

Since when can a coach pay for a player's schooling and call him a "walk on?"  Probably can't even give him a Christmas gift. 
BEsides,  Tate was FIRST TEAM ALL-STATE.
THINK before you type.

Don't refer to the best Ksu coach in history as 'ballz'.

Recruiting class would look dec' if we recalculated for hearts.  Other stats of interest: green clovers and purple horseshoes.  :ksu:

You must be a real dumbass.  All American punters are anything but a dime a dozen.  That's like saying Groza winners grow on trees.  Punters can have a tremendous impact on a game, for good or bad.  And how exactly did Snyd's "make sure" of Sean's AA status?  Bill Snyder was basically a nobody at that point.  What possible pull did he have with the AP that would ensure jack crap?

but Sean led the nation in punting average for 2 consecutive years on a pretty sucky KSU team.  IIRC, the second year he averaged 44-45 YPP, which is ridiculous.  So, no, Snyder didn't arrange for him to be CAA.

Dude, that guy is obviously a moron.  Only someone who's never watched football would think Punters (or kickers for that matter) are a dime a dozen. 

There were two games this season that we probably win, BUT FOR the kicking game.  Obviously LaLa and @ NU, their punter had us pinned inside the 5 three times iirc.  Anyone that's a fan of the Chiefs knows that kickers are very important, i.e. Lynn Elliott v. Dustin Colquitt

If it were 100% nepotism, Rob Snyder (Bill's other son that played RB in the 90s) would have had a scholie.  He didn't because he wasn't that good.  Tate is a legitimate player.  I don't know if he's a Big 12 caliber player, but it's not as much of a stretch as some would believe.
