Why would they come here?

:dunno:

Because we have great fans like you Rusty sucking up on ku forums, why wouldn't they come?

Is Rusty the SLTH we have been looking for all these years? "Can't recruit nobody to K-State. Snyder can't get no good assistants to come to K-State. Rock Chalk Baby!"

    THE b IS NOT CAPITALIZED
I'm telling you, this is not ANYTHING like the team from the beginning of conference play. You will see no more blowouts like what happened in OOC.  If we lose, it will not because these kids gave up, and it will be at the buzzer. -Rodless, before 97-70

Seriously, is it too late to tear up the contract and do a real coach search now?

Why wouldn't they?


How do you think the Stoops clan would answer that question....check that.....what do you think the Stoops clan has been telling the nation about that for the last 10 years?

Why do you think good assistants wouldn't come here?



I am still trying to figure that out.  I mean, why didn't they come here after 1998?  That is really my point.

&@#%, I am a god damn prophet.  Of Doom, but still a prophet.

This site is now filled to the brim with powertards. The same powertards that immediately endorsed Ron Prince when he arrived.

This is what you tards aren't getting... There are two Bill Snyders being thrown around here:

1. Bill Snyder the Younger.
2. Bill Snyder the Older.

You all saw Bill Snyder the Younger during his DoD(LoL). Thats the guy you all want him to be. People say 'well Snyder will do this, Snyder will do that, he'll have discipline, he'll recruit leaps and bounds better, aspiring head coaches will flock to him to be assistants'.

But three years ago, when we last saw Snyder, he was Bill Snyder the Older. He was no longer doing this, and that, and instilling discipline, and recruiting good, and he no longer had a good staff surrounding him. All of this was of the opinion of damn near everyone the last two years he was head coach. While he was retiring the general understanding was that although it was sad to see him go, it was time.

Three years later and he's back. Now the powertards are all hailing the return of Bill Snyder the Younger. Unfortunately, there is no reason to believe he's coming. Snyder was losing it back then, turnaround time mixed with very old age isn't a cure to remedy those kinds of failures. The only way this works is if he assembles a staff that will literally let him front the deal but do all the work. Joe Paterno style.

It's like nostalgia. Looking back and reminiscing about something you loved. But actually going back to it is bittersweet, not how you remember it. How often in sports or in anything do you see people, revered for their days long passed, come back and have just as much success? He's gonna pull a Michael Jordan. Fans will give him infinite time, outwardly say great things about him, inwardly wish he'd go away and leave that nostalgic thought intact before he destroys it.

He's 69. He should be retired. Not attempting to turn around a school that seems to be looking for get rich quick schemes. Old reliable is about to misfire.



Excellent post, imho.

Our own athletic department is no longer the embarrassing source of amusement it was 6-7 years ago.  We have to outsource our humor fulfillment.

I believe Jon Wefald had the power to hold his athletic department in his hand like a dove.  And he had a choice to either crush it with his power of influence or let it fly with a vision for a better, total program. He chose to crush it.

With Wefald, it's more like the mentally challenged guy in Of Mice and Men. Wefald loved that damn dove sooooo much, he cuddled him so hard that it suffocated tragically in a meager puff of white feathers and blood.
