This time from some Grantland guy.
Even after reading the Snyder formula/story for the 158th time it really doesn't get old. (http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/8570686/kansas-state-head-coach-bill-snyder-heisman-trophy-candidate-collin-klein-led-their-team-8-0-season)

"The whole time, he clutched a clear plastic bag in his right hand, as if he'd somehow detoured to a bulk-foods market for caramel creams on his way upstairs."

Some coaches find their edge in an offensive philosophy or a defensive scheme; Snyder's, at this point, seems based largely on accumulated wisdom.

i need to save all these articles. quite ridiculous.
-
Very poetic. :thumbs:

That is the narrative that will land us in the title game.

Klein will be on Jim Rome today. Yawn.

Most Midwesterny College Town in the World :love: :love: :love: :emawkid:

Klein is actually not a bad passer, even if it looks like he is attempting to hurl a javelin through a windshield
:lol:
-
I have an RSS feed for Weinreb's articles. He's one of the few Grantland authors who write intelligibly on college football.
-
When he was 28 and coaching at a high school in Indio, California, he tried to hire a hypnotist so he could find a way to compress six hours of sleep into one. (The plan failed.)
:bill: Might have worked if he could override the dancemachine programing. :bill:

:lol:
:dunno: Does it look any different to throw a javelin through a windshield than to throw a javelin at anything else?

I've always wondered what an RSS feed was....and I still don't know.

His wire-rimmed glasses were perched on a vaguely avian nose, lending him, from the right angle, the look of a learned eagle.
Is this the first time Coach has been compared to a bird? If so, bravo Mr. Weinreb.

Does it look different than throwing a javelin at anything else? no. Does it look different than how a javilen is thrown 99% of the time (for distance)? yes

I'd heard the hard butter and hypnotism stories before, but I don't recall this...
he once reportedly became perturbed after the team bus got stuck at a railroad crossing, because he presumed that someone should have checked the train schedule

They left out the one about snyder only letting players sit on one side of the plane so their rest wouldnt be disturbed by the sun on the other side.

I bet Bill was a neurotic mess that entire trip to Japan.

Yeah. All these anecdotes are all rehashed to us. But it's fun to see national writers discover them.

wasn't it on the bus trip to Nebraska? Got stuck in Marysville.
-
it used to be impossible to get through marysville without getting stopped by a train. I once got stopped by 3 trains in marysville including the crossing just north of town. it was the worst.

yeah, the overpass or w/e has helped. Hated bus trips through that town.

This. We need to market/promote ourselves to have a shot
