Bill Snyder is a good coach, great coach. One thing you have to remember though is when he went on his run with KSU both ku and MU never really put an emphasis towards their football programs. ku now has in the top half of athletic budgets in the Big 12 and growing to go along with a new football complex who many outsiders have said is one of the best football complex's in the country, better than many elite programs. MU is putting more of an emphasis into their football program too. This will hurt KSU more than you think. KSU now has to recruit against NU,MU and ku and will not have as much success as they had in the 90's. And dont forget about Colorado, playing for them is more appealing than playing for KSU.
