A little more:
I understand telling Bill Snyder to quit coaching in order to focus completely on recruiting is so against everything he has ever done, it doesn't even make sense to say it out loud.
But, when I hear him talk about how it's "new" for him to have a thick stack of recruits' profiles on his desk (which he did at the season opening press conference), it worries me because if he hasn't changed his time management from the first time around in terms of coaching (how could he with this team?), and he was using up all of his hours back then, when does all the "new" stuff he wants to do get done; especially when he keeps talking about all the stuff he recalls he used to do on a daily basis?
I'll bet it doesn't. And, I wonder if Snyder didn't think/hope most of the "increased" focus on recruiting was taking care of itself with the increased number of early commitments...uh, yeah...
Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't ever suggest BS focus only on recruiting. But, this isn't normal. He has a limited number of years...to make things better - for the next guy.
I was a fan of him coming back at the time (after everything else that happened), but if he loses sight of his own role, his returning quickly sours for me.
Lastly, maybe you guys can break it down, but I was informed by the Compliance Services folks that as of Sept. 3, there were 79 overall scholarships awarded for this academic year. I hope that means they think EVERY grayshirt is going to pay off and are holding 'ships for them. If not, it means JUCOs should be ready for KSU to come calling....which means nothing really changed at all.
