I'm disappointed Currie is letting this happen.  (Unless this is part of his plan to let BS2.0 go down in a blaze of glory).  Not likely, so I'm disappointed.

Currie isn't to blame for this. An AD who tells coaches who they can and cannot hire for their staff is no better than Wefald running the athletic department. Snyder should be allowed to make his bed and when it blows up, he will have nobody to blame but himself.

I just wish Currie would be like, "That's your hire?  Step into my office.  You're rough ridin' fired".  Not necessarily telling coaches who they can hire/fire, but they should be consulted.  "Wait, you're going to hire your son?  Do you need more money to hire a real coach or something?  Jesus Christ, Bill, you're killing me here." <-would also be acceptable.

when/if snyder ever stops being the head coach, stuff like this should make it easier for us to hire a new coach...

 "yeah, two million a year. yep that's right. sure thing. country club and a car allowance too. most definitely. oh by the way...did i mention that every member of your family can go to kstate on athletic scholarship and have jobs at kstate doing whatever they feel like they want to do. no seriously. anything. they name it and they can do it. seriously though. anything. i bet your children could not even potentially come up with a scenario where we would not just allow them to do it. go ahead try. see you can't do it. anything. i promise."



oh yeah though. that's the best part about it. it's not just your kids. it's your kid's kids. oh yeah. well, i assume they will have children one day and when they do, don't you want to know that your grandchildren can have a full ride athletic scholarship and jobs doing anything they want waiting for them. well yeah, it seems like a long way away, but twenty/thirty years can go by pretty quickly.

Tards supporting it.

Really?  I can't imagine how anyone could rationalize this into a good idea. Even if you're the most delusional person in the world.

They are standing by the "fact" that Sean has "been a coach for years" and that there is some swimming coach in texas who has never swam before.

Some think that Bill is retiring after this year, and that he isn't going to go hire a highly touted staff only to lay them off next year(and tards are ok with this).

Some seem to flat out not mind the fact that Sean is one heart beat away.

Being treated as any other shitty realization.  Rationalized into a "Trust Bill" mindset.

Makes me want to  :barf: and  :chainsaw:.

Re: OMFG - Sean Snyder   Reply
well i didnt want to say anything but around 2 years ago i was told by will coakley (yes the linebacker and college roomate of vic koening) that one of the reasons vic left the team was because the writing was already on the wall that bill was grooming sean to be the next head coach at k-state. at the time i thought that will had tried to tackle marcus dupree one to many times back in college...but with this turn of events, one has to wonder? just hope he is either the second coming of bill or that ADJC wont allow it to happen!

We don't know if Currie was consulted. There is not an AD in the country who would fire Bill after only his second season, when the team just went bowling for the first time in 4 years. This hire will (or at least should) cause Currie to be much less patient with Bill. If we win less than 6 games this year, I think Currie pulls the trigger.

If the Big 12 dissolves and K-State moves to the Mountain West, Snyder will win — and win big.

WOW!! Can you imagine the meltdown that would have occurred...   Reply
if Todd Haley had ever been hired as a coach on the Cats' staff!! The guy never even played football. He was a golfer! Talk about nepotism! What credentials did he have that EVER would have landed him a coaching position ANYWHERE, let alone lead to winning the AFC Coach of the Year title??

...Yeah, Sean Snyder sucks! He's a TERRIBLE hire! So what if he's the son of one of the greatest football minds EVER in college football?! So what if he actually played football under the tutelage of that great coach and was an All-American at his position?! So what if he's seen, 1st hand, all of his life, the kind of work ethic that it takes to succeed at a high level in college football?!

How small-minded are some of you people??? If you actually attended K-State, then I'd sure like to see something done about raising the entrance requirements a few notches!

Props to Sean Snyder. I can't think of anyone more deserving of a position on our coaching staff, ESPECIALLY as a special teams coach. I'm GLAD to him on the staff and hope his responsibilities continue to grow!

I can see Sean taking over and winning like 5 games in 2 seasons, then going to another school and going 14-0 a la Chizik to Auburn. That would be classic KSTATEO

Wasn't Sean like our first ever 1st Team All-American?  And isn't that basically what put him into the first class of the Ring of Honor?  I certainly don't mind him working with punters, but he better know his cac with the rest of the special teams because his job performance will be highly scrutinized next year.

In the grand scheme of things, I don't think anybody has a beef with YB being hired by OB to coach the kickers, because he's been doing that anyway.

What has anyone with a brain bothered is the Assoc Head Coach . . . now the Lords of Shirttuckville are trying to convince the underlings that the title is purely ceremonial,  and in many cases it is . . . but in SOME cases it is not.    Anyone that has the first effing clue knows that OB has been angling for YB to take over as HC for a long time.   This is just one more maneuver by OB on behalf of YB to make that happen.

For me, I wouldn't have a problem with YB being considered as KSUHC, if YB had gone out on his own in the coaching ranks and was say a highly capable coordinator at a significant college football program, who was also known has a prolific recruiter with significant ties to the high school recruit ranks/trails.

But alas, YB has done nothing but work as travel agent/make sure there's no whipped butter guy/kickers coach at K-State for DADDY in the last decade or
