My ideal situation is that we have a list of the top 3-5 candidates (the top tier coaches that we realistically have a shot at) and contact them through back-channels each year. If we get one to bite, then we have Snyder step down. If not, no real panic, just let Snyder keep the seat warm another year and try for a new group.

^Is was unrealistic BTW

I'm all aboard the "Hire great but disgraced coaches" train. Worked well with Huggins. (Well, sorta.)

A combination of Leach, Mangino, and Leavitt.

That would be mind blowingly amazing.

I kind of lol at what I imagine it would be like for other coaches recruiting against us.

"Sure, K-State has good coaches..If you don't mind getting the crap beat out of you when you make a mistake, being physically tortured during practice, and then getting locked up in a dungeon afterwards."

Huskerpride, your school has conceded the Big 12 to UT and OU. Shouldn't you be on a Big Eleven BBS?

I don't really care, I'll be rooting for the CATS!

I would prefer it if we didn't get a hideously ugly coach like Nebraska has. The man looks like a goat chewing his own cud. ewww

Bo Pelini is a shockingly big drunk.

We need the guy from downtown, the guy from Mitch and Murray to do a little motivational speaking inside Vanier.

Have it on decent authority that OB intends to coach until Tate graduates. However, what I don't know is how long Currie intends for Snyder to coach.

Deez Nutz · « **Reply #63 on:** June 29, 2010, 08:17:45 AM »

Well we all know that Snyder signed a five year contract last year and he has only coached one year at this point, so I wouldn't worry about the issue for at least another couple of years. Going 4-4 in conference play, beating KU, and being in the hunt for the North title in the last week of the regular season certainly exceeded most people's expectations. No coach does more with less than the great LHC Bill Snyder.

By the way, I still detest everybody that refers to him as "OB". You know deep down in your heart of hearts that it's wrong.

I'm honestly hoping that we go get Callahan. Amazing recruiter and a great coach. If it hadn't been for a few upper classman pussies who quit on the team, recruited by Tom Osborne, Callahan would be crushing the conference.

Setting aside the obvious, but hilarious, point that his balls are indeed old, he's earned the nickname through his own incompetence.

2003, we just won the Big 12 championship. Get out on the road and recruit? Nope. Keep ALL the assistant coaches at home coaching 'em up.

Kids across the country are catching on to this new wave of "texting" and "emailing." Do our assistant coaches do it? Nope. Specifically prohibited from doing it by OB.

Recruiting is obviously dropping off, and the team is playing undisciplined. Fire the failing AC's? Nope. Refuse to ever fire anyone, and keep them forever. After all, OB doesn't ever make mistakes on hiring.

Attempt to play Big 12 games with the likes of Dillon Meier, Allen Evridge, and Carson Coffman as your quarterback? Yep.

However, I do appreciate that he's still old school about discipline, in that Bill always lets them play.
