Parrish, obviously, was Snyder's predecessor at K-State.  He recently took over for Hoke when Hoke left for SDSU (lateral move imHo).  Ball State was undefeated last year under Hoke.  This year when Parrish took over?  Winless.  0-8, even losing to I-AA NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Well, today they played another winless team today in Eastern Michigan, and won. 

Stan Parrish, congratulations on winning your first game as a head coach since you were at K-State in 1986 and you probably beat the Austin Peay State Governors or some other bullcrap team.

Yeah, Big Props to Stan!  :beerchug:

That 86 win was a 29-12 victory over the Kansas Jayhawks (his last official non-loss was tie vs. Kansas in the 0-10-1 1987 season).

He probably pulled them all into a circle at the center of the field during practice last week, and said "OK, whoever wants to win, step up.."

His job at Ball State this year has been one of The Greatest Turnarounds in College Football history.
