Title: Fire LHC Bill Snyder Master Thread
Post by: Dugout DickStone on October 23, 2010, 06:35:36 PM
What can we do?  OB's track record of not cutting incompetent assistants if very disconcerting.  How do we get out in front of this, start momentum and get the conversation started?

Trim said we can't do a plane banner.  But we gotta do something.

We can do a plane banner, but it has to be Fire Snyder.

We're not wasting an airplane on getting a coordinator fired who will be replaced by another crap coordinator.

I just can't picture OB letting Cosh go.  So, to me, if we want Cosh gone, we Fire Snyder.
Title: Re: Official Fire Chris Cosh thread - future ideas.
Post by: Dugout DickStone on October 23, 2010, 06:46:57 PM
They won't fire Snyder, especially this year.  However, Cosh could be let go or get co-coordinated out.  Curry isn't a total pussy who won't get involved.

Any banner about Snyder is a waste of money.  It's time to let whoever in the AD heard about the Prince banner to know there is a Cosh banner in the works.

this.  it won't happen, but this is the only long term solution.  we're just going to be f'ing around at 5-7, 6-6, 7-5 with snyds as head coach.  we have no hope of this defense getting any better with the plethora of JC guys giving our recruiters the middle finger and going elsewhere, let alone the miss after miss in the HS ranks.

Def. need to go the co-coordinator route.  Leavitt can come in and Cosh can hold a clipboard or something.  Getting some decent athletes out there on defense next season should help some.

I don't know if that is what he does for sure or not, one would guess the "or some crap" part of my post would have indicated that guess not.

I don't give a eff what he does, like I said the dude has had good insidery info before, the guy does something where he has good access to Mr. Burns and Frank

Changes are guaranteed. We will be better defensively.

Coach does not like the "bend don't break"...especially when we don't have the ability to....(sorry to use these words) "not break".

Coach LHC Bill Snyder is not happy with our defensive philosophy.

Accommodations were made for expectations, but none of them are being met.

Expect changes soon.

Soon means on the flight home.

Changes are happening now. Not only as I type...but from the last time I typed about it, until now....changes have happened.

Remember one thing. Coach Snyder has never "fired" an assistant coach. That's not going to change. Re-assign, maybe. Fire.....no.

I don't think P46 is fishing. I remember one d-bag little fishing expedition he took in the last year or so - don't remember what it was, but I remember that it wasn't at all funny or well-received - but I don't think he would do that to us again. Not as fragile as we all are now.

P46 is a great Wildcat. You'd have to be a total doucheturd to f*ck around with being cutesy right now.

pap-

There isn't going to be any "big changes" that we will all find out about. What will happen, is the philosophy will change. Spread? Zone read? Actually....those are things that get chuckled at by the d-coaches. Here's the beef...

"We HAVE to be mean"

According to the coach that I know pretty well...we just aren't mean enough yet. We are a team of "ok" folks. We need assholes. We need cocky bastards. We need the likes of Monty Beisel, (cockiest mutha I've ever been around)-Terrance Newman (most confident person I've ever seen in my life) Dyshod Carter (the most over confident person to walk the face of the earth) Zac Diles (the most disciplined person I've come across)....

You get the picture. If you aren't a mean sum-bitch...you'll never amount to anything in Div 1, let alone the League. Coach might just be saying the same thing now....

"We HAVE to be mean"

According to the coach that I know pretty well...we just aren't mean enough yet. We are a team of "ok" folks. We need assholes. We need cocky bastards. We need the likes of Monty Beisel, (cockiest mutha I've ever been around)-Terrance Newman (most confident person I've ever seen in my life) Dyshod Carter (the most over confident person to walk the face of the earth) Zac Diles (the most disciplined person I've come across)....

You get the picture. If you aren't a mean sum-bitch...you'll never amount to anything in Div 1, let alone the League. Coach might just be saying the same thing now....

Defensively speaking...

There's coaching. That's what shows them when and where they are supposed to be.

There's experience. That's what the kids learn after being put into the wrong position and watching the opponent expose YOU.

There's Learning. That happens when you listen to the coaching, have had some experience, then make the right decision.

There's Executing. This is when it all comes together.

There's perfection. The only time perfection happens is when every player on the field at any time of any play expects the other players to execute from their learning experience that they were coached.

Christ...I just let loose of a secret, didn't I.

I don't think P46 is fishing. I remember one d-bag little fishing expedition he took in the last year or so - don't remember what it was, but I remember that it wasn't at all funny or well-received - but I don't think he would do that to us again. Not as fragile as we all are now.

P46 is a great Wildcat. You'd have to be a total doucheturd to f*ck around with being cutesy right now.
Sooooo....total douchetard it is, apparently.

This has become the most worthless thread in the history of this website. And that's saying a lot.

Re: Changes are coming.   Reply
Koppe, you're on a roll sir.

To All - regardless of P46's inside information, or lack thereof, I really see a change in D coaching coming. Snyder knows what this team is capable of. If the D had played like they did last year, we MIGHT be 7-0 right now. Last year's D was decent - they weren't world beaters, but a top 40 D with this offense = a pretty dam good team.

Fwiw, I think there's more to this story, and wouldn't be surprised to see something by monday or tuesday.

I fear that Bill won't fire anyone...which is sad b/c when people don't get the job done, you fire them it's pretty simple. Now if I could take my guess, Bill has said he doesn't like bend don't break so perhaps that means we'll see more blitzes/attacking style defensive schemes from here on out.

I posted that 2 days ago. Sorry.

Anyway...people seem to hold Koppe in high regard. I invite Koppe to name a non-con game, and I have 2nd row tickets for ya. We're next to the bench, I can probably get coach to come over and shake a hand, and give you "it's about time you quit being a bitch" type thing.

Only if you are willing.

Easy broseph (see what I did there?...bro + joseph?). Anyways, I challenge you to find anything complementary I have ever said about Koppe until now. P46, I appreciate your insight and if you are sitting second row...congrats! Let's not get too worked up after a tough loss when we weren't favored. We all know changes are coming because simply, they have to. Right now we don't have the "Jimmie's and Joe's" on D and even worse, we don't have that crazy flame thrower Eckler type like in the past. For me, that is the most frustrating. I mean, where is this guy... (see link)?

If I had a quarter for every time I wish I hadn't made a drunken ass of myself on this board... well... let's just say I'd have to change my name to "VENDING_MACHINE_WARRIOR"!

As far as I'm concerned, no apologies necessary. If the whole board hadn't been so hyper-sensitive to the fact that we all think big changes on defense need to be made, we wouldn't have escalated your post into such a big deal in the first place...

FYI Powercat46...you were nowhere close to the "old Bate" last night. Actually you are quite entertaining when you drink.

Congratulations, Bate. I have to admit I was waiting for the first Bate Meltdown, but it is obvious you are a different person now, and it is quite refreshing.

And for everyone else, I have know idea who Powercat46 is, but from his previous posts, it is obvious he is able to donate more than the Average Joe, knows a lot of people in Manhattan, and has good connections. I took his post with several grains of salt last night, knowing he is connected, but also realizing his writing tone was different than normal- i.e. I assumed he'd had a few drinks.

The Drums of Anger in Wildcat Land

The fan base is stirred. The fan base is pissed - and this is an angry stinking piss. The defensive performance was unacceptable and requires a consequence. The fan base needs the defensivce coodinator's head chopped. Coach Synder either you give us the sacrificial blood or get the effin out of here. How can you recruit with your current coordinator in place? Get up, get off your loyalty ethic and save your program. Cosh erodes the brand.

It seems like there are two camps here.  Sort of like the Carson deal.  Those who want Snyder gone, and those who just want Cosh gone.

I have no problem getting rid of Snyder, as long as we replace him with a solid proven coach.  No more experiments. 

On the other hand, if there really aren't any realistic options to replace him at this time, I'd still be fine with a Leavitt or someone to replace Cosh for the time being.  I think Snyder is still a good overall COACH.  And, I think most would agree that if we had a decent (30-40 ranked) defense, we would actually have a pretty good team.

But, I think it's pretty stupid to get rid of Snyder right now, just for the sake of getting rid of him.  We could very easily end up in another Ron Prince type situation, and be set back a few more years.  At least we seem to be gaining a little bit of momentum with a bowl game likely this season.

This.  Also, Leach would have no problem firing a DC that wasn't getting it done. 

If I remember correctly, he replaced his DC with McNeil (who was already on staff) during the season.

I am sort of a Snyder proponent, but he just pisses me off sometimes.  I mean everyone in America knows that Coffman shouldn't play, but Snyder puts him in anyway.  I wouldn't be surprised if Snyder puts Coffman in to start the second half just to prove that he is a dips--t.  I remember that everyone said we had a 5 star linebacker that was a bust (I think Marvin Simmons), but Snyder had to put him in for some downs in a Oklahoma game and he lit some people up.  Our defense looked good with him in, and I am sure that pissed Snyder off.

Snyder put Coffman in because we had no timeouts and a lot of yardage to go to score before the half. We would have run the clock out running the ball with Klein.

- mizzou has a really good defensive line
- our defense sucks, which we've known since march
- we've made some Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) mistakes

I really don't know what people expect when we've lost two of our best WRs, our change of pace RB, a lot of our defense (which sucked to begin with), our only QB that can even throw a little bit is hurt

snyder was a great coach, maybe still is, but it's not fair to jump all over him for this loss (imo), that said I won't try and stop anyone cuz this america (free speech, etc)

as chingon noted, no coach that will ever coach at KSU will get these kinds of excuses made for them.  eff LHC Bill Snyder.  He gets no free passes from me.

Good coaches can have bad games, imo. This is one of those.

He had a terrible quarter or so. The 2 qb plan was fine, and I expected it. But it went south with the mistake before half, in which IMHO the wrong guy was in. Those types of mistakes trend to compound themselves in games like this, and a whiffed block and stupid gadget pay later and you arte looking at a blow out.  No doubt a half dozen very bad Snyder decisions was a major reason for this loss, but I don't fire him for them. If you want to I can understand though.

I just wish he had good assistants.  We can't tell him to fire his shitty DC, because we know that won't happen.  

I think he made a mistake by not bringing Klien back in to sneak from the 1, because everyone knew we were already running anyways.

Still think he has done a remarkable job this year with this team he has.  Only blatant mistake has been QB decisions.

That is 100% his fault and the reason he has cost us bowl trips and many wins his last 3 seasons here.  The fact that we are bowling (hopefully) this season is great, but 1 bowl in the last 4 Snyder seasons is not acceptable to me and shouldn't be acceptable to anyone else.  Why he gets a free pass by everyone is beyond me.

I don't hate Bill yet because our other options might be worse, but I am tired of Coffman.  He turns the ball over.  I doubt he can even pass today if Collin Klein didn't come in and change the way Missouri attack us.  The thing is that Klein opens up the run so much that he gets to make easy passes.  If Snyder hates people that turn the ball over then why does Carson get a free pass.  I saw Klein make a nice longer pass.  If he gets some time to get his nervousness out, he could be really good.  If Snyder stays with Coffman I will turn the next game off.  I am tired of Bill playing his little B----.  Coffman sucks, and he slurs his S's like he should play at KU with their little boys.  Not that there is anything wrong with that, I just prefer people that slur S's stay at KU.

We hired Snyder so we wouldn't have the wrong personnel on the field at the wrong time. 

We hired Snyder so we wouldn't have whiffed blocks.

We hired Snyder so we wouldn't have stupid unsuccessful gadget plays. 

We hired Snyder so he could coach up our shitty recruits.


When he fails at everything we hired him to do, what should we do?  :dunno:

As long as he beats KU our Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) fan base will continue to support Snyder.  Nevermind the fact that his winning % over the last 4 seasons he's coached at KSU is almost identical to Ron Prince.  And Prince actually had to play good Texas teams and good KU teams.  Bill gets the worst Texas team in over a decade and the Fighting Turner Gill's.  Not to mention the terrible recruiting.  I have no idea how anyone could give Snyder a pass at this point.

How is our recruitng terrible this year?  Sams, Tuggle, Bryce, Arthur, Kennard, Meshak, Pease...  Seems like we're adding some very nice talent.  Also- we've played much of this season w/o our top 2 WRs.  But that wouldn't make any difference on any other team in the country, would it?  8-4 with 70 scholarship players may well get Snyder another Big 12 COTY.  Exactly who are we going to hire that would have done a better job this year?  Tuberville was an awful popular choice to be our next HC.  He sucks balls.

The biggest thing I wanted Snyder to do was get us back to winning games we are supposed to win.  I think he's done that.  I think the offense and special teams are solid despite a lack of depth and injuries.  Defense is my biggest issue and I'm not a big fan of the scheme, but I can see some improvements there.  Plus there is a real lack of playmaking talent over there, but I think that will be better.  It was very disappointing that Snyder didn't land a qb last year, but I think that has been addressed.  I think his staff has some holes, but I don't think it's as terrible as many make it out to be; adding Leavitt would improve it quite a bit as well.  Snyder is doing pretty much as I expected so far so I'm not in some mode of thinking he should be fired. I'm sure this makes me some sort of tard or whatever.

I just want Snyder to build a consistent 7-8 win football program again that once in a while competes for a league title.  I think he's doing that despite today's loss.  Now, if we go and lose the next two weeks, even next week, I'll temper that quite a bit.  But as of now we are actually better than I expected this year.

I'm sure this makes me some sort of tard or whatever.

Agree with this.  Considering my expectation this year with the level of talent in the program was 6-6, maybe 7-5 tops, with a bowl appearance, I'm not that dissatisfied in all actuality with where we are.  When we lose to Colorado next week and beat North Texas, we'll be right probably where this program should be in year two under Snyder.  It pisses me off that the expectations are that low, but they are what they are.

The dude is never going to lead us back to a Big XII Title in all likelihood.  But, as much as I hate to say it, he is providing some structural stability and the program is making some strides in the right direction, albeit small strides.  Recruiting has picked up slightly and the overall talent level through transfers is being elevated.  Yes, the Big XII is down, but as you stated, we are winning the games we should be winning and we're opportunistic when we need to be for the most part.  

Being mumped out of Patterson destroyed a tremendous opportunity for the program to be rebuilt properly, like Martin has in BBall, and to finally take the next step out of the Snyder shadow, but we can't cry over spilled milk.  Snyder is who we've got and we're all in at this point.  Yes, the expectations have been marginalized, but I'm willing to at least let this process for the next year to two years play out when he finally has a legitimate D-1 QB on the roster.  

Cosh is a rough ridin' clown show, though.  Gotta get Leavitt back in Manhattan.

He beat KU.  That's enough for a lot of people.

Beating KU is plenty of progress, even though they have their worst team in 8 years.

Beating ISU is plenty of progress, even though they're not going bowling.

Beating Texas is plenty of progress, even though they have their worst team in 13 years.

Beating Colorado (assuming we do) is plenty of progress, even though their coach has been fired because they're so crappy.

Hey, we can beat really sucky teams.  So at least we're not as sucky as they are.

Never mind we looked like complete crap against a decent (not great) Mizzou team, a decent (not great) Nebraska team, and a decent (not great) Baylor team.

We've had a punter on the field for every single punt, and that's progress.

Yes.  they are wrong.  "Bill was a "great" coach when he had the bob stoops (left after '95), Leavitt (left after '95), M. Stoops, Venables, Mangino (all left after '98).  Once those guys were out of the system and the residual effects of those coaches and their recruiting wore off, and the retards that Snyder replaced those guys with (who we basically have on the staff now) got ahold of the program, bill's "coaching" came shining through with those awesome '04, '05 seasons...and followed up by '09 and this season.  

You can't simply dismiss '04 and '05 and just start counting from last year.  I'm taking into account the previous years prior to '04/'05 and giving you a reason for the success and the reason for the failure.  You're simply saying "hey geyse, we were good because of snyder", without even thinking about why were good when we were good.  It wasn't just about Bill.  He didn't do it alone and can't do it alone.  And he got a "do-over" yet he still brought back those cacty coaches.

I'm assuming that we can't keep decent coordinators around for very long any more because of LHC Bill Snyder.  Andy Ludwig got just a taste of Bill and chose to go to Cal, after only 2 months here, and for the same exact position he took here.  Tards thought OB just wanted to look at his playbook. Yeah, right. The guy bolted because Snyder is hard to work with.

Vic Koenning turned our defense around. 118th ranked total defense is what he inherited. In only one season, we jumped like 80 spots defensively. I don't know what went on behind closed doors, but Vic left very quickly to take a full-time defensive coordinator job at Illinois, Cosh then becomes full-time defensive coordinator here, and now we suck again. Hmmm.....IMO, either Koenning wanted more than he was getting, or Snyder believed Cosh was better. Who knows??

These examples really piss me the eff off.  As long as OB's around, the future of our program is being held hostage.

not a bad evaluation, Ron had 2 losses to .500 or worse teams every year in his tenure, bill had 2 last year (UL and UCLA - they were 6-6 until they won their bowl game).  This year he's had none of those losses (with two of those crappy teams remaining - CU and UNT). 

the problem is that there is no "long term", at least under bill (unless he's going to stay until he dies).  so this is all pointless.  there's not guarantee of success when the baton is handed to the next guy, regardless of how many non-crappy teams bill didn't lose to.  we're building for nothing with this coach.

LHC Bill Snyder has his name on the stadium.  Prince was a terrible coach, but LHC Bill Snyder did him no favors during his time here.  Further, Bill has people inside the athletic department (it starts with his son) that he has chosen to protect and elevate to an "untouchable" status.  He backed up his word by stepping down on this front.

LHC Bill Snyder's age is no secret, and if he tells the truth as much as Leland, he is here to "calm the waters" and then dock his boat.  This mission and exit plan are completely undefinable.  What the hell is a yes/no benchmark for whether Bill gets to say.  As sick as it is, only he could set the terms at the outset and I know of nothing that would change that outside of KU getting better.  We have created a situation where we feel so beholden to Bill, that we have sacrificed any planning for the future to live in a kind of nihilist nostalgia.  There is no plan.  There is no planning, because Bill is once again at the helm and he will remain there until he decides he will leave or until he is forced out by the powers that be.

Bill was the head coach during a wonderful time for many of us.  He did some amazing things and he deserves recognition and praise for the accomplishments that he guided the team to.

But the myopic worship of Bill will prevent any semblance of proportionality, and make no mistake, the history has already been written.  Any facts past or present to the contrary are dismissed because they do not fit the narrative.

What is there to root for at this juncure?  I am in no position to know.  If we can leverage a consistent bowl team in to a good hire, then that would be for the best and would be great.  If we lose and Bill retires I don't know the outcome would be much different.  Ultimately, Mr. Currie will have to stand up to Bill and Jack to make a decision that is best for the University.

But I won't send my money to support this quagmire.  Snyder has been very selfish towards the end of his career.  I don't think that he has put Kansas State first, I think he has placed his ego ahead.  I know that he missed the game, that he heard from his friends and his colleagues and that he thought he was doing what was right.  But Kansas State needs to move on.  I don't know how much longer Bill can coach, but unless there is a legitimate Head Coach in Waiting brought in for next year, then this miserable slog will march on.  With everyone lying to themselves and hoping for what once was.  If Bill wins 10 games it would be wonderful. 

But then what would we say when he asked for more time?  Or if he demands that his son stay on to transition the program over?  Or if he wants to bring in an old friend for the job because he "understands what it takes?"

The divorce needs to happen because Kansas State Football can no longer be synonymous with LHC Bill Snyder.  For both our sakes.  Here's hoping it is amicable for both parties.  Relax Bill, you've earned it.

interesting looking back at the 2007 recruiting class.  there's nobody worth a crap from there.  kind of the same with 2008.

looking forward to next year, when we see how the 2009 class pans out, and with the browns + brod + poss juco help! :excited:

Anyone calling for BS to be fired is a moron.  Had we hired Nick Saban 2 years ago, you same people would be saying "Saban's doing a great job with the pile of crap left for him by RP.  Give him time to get the mess cleaned up and get his players in here."  If you judge BS on simply what he has done the past 1.5 years (without bringing in your biases from BS circa 2005) he has done a damn fine job.  That said, I too know that Bill's days are clearly numbered and would love to see Patterson (or similar) running the show.  Whoever is brought in, I will give them more than 1.5 years before I start calling for their heads.

This mission and exit plan are completely undefinable.  

This is why I can't get excited about KSU football right now.

The problem is you can't define an exit plan beyond a year.  If you do, your recruiting is DOA.  But Bill's kind of said that he was just here to calm the waters and he's old balls, so he kind of mumped himself that way, too.

What Bill is doing right now is not any better than what a ton of coaches 20-30 years younger could have done.  The differences is with those guys, you can have a REAL long term system in place.   With Bill, we're 2-3 years from Prince 2.0, (which, luckily, is only slightly shittier than what we have now).  That is my number one issue with Bill.


As for the 2 year thing, take a look at guys like Doug Marrone and Dan Mullen.   Both took over crap jobs and have easily passed Bill.

LHC Bill Snyder has his name on the stadium.  Prince was a terrible coach, but LHC Bill Snyder did him no favors during his time here.  Further, Bill has people inside the athletic department (it starts with his son) that he has chosen to protect and elevate to an "untouchable" status.  He backed up his word by stepping down on this front.

Bill was the head coach during a wonderful time for many of us.  He did some amazing things and he deserves recognition and praise for the accomplishments that he guided the team to.

But the myopic worship of Bill will prevent any semblance of proportionality, and make no mistake, the history has already been written.  Any facts past or present to the contrary are dismissed because they do not fit the narrative.

What is there to root for at this juncure?  I am in no position to know.  If we can leverage a consistent bowl team in to a good hire, then that would be for the best and would be great.  If we lose and Bill retires I don't know the outcome would be much different.  Ultimately, Mr. Currie will have to stand up to Bill and Jack to make a decision that is best for the University.

But I won't send my money to support this quagmire.  Snyder has been very selfish towards the end of his career.  I don't think that he has put Kansas State first, I think he has placed his ego ahead.  I know that he missed the game, that he heard from his friends and his colleagues and that he thought he was doing what was right.  But Kansas State needs to move on.  I don't know how much longer Bill can coach, but unless there is a legitimate Head Coach in Waiting brought in for next year, then this miserable slog will march on.  With everyone lying to themselves and hoping for what once was.  If Bill wins 10 games it would be wonderful.

The biggest thing I wanted Snyder to do was get us back to winning games we are supposed to win.  I think he's done that.

With all due respect, this is a horseshit basis for evaluation.  You could make the argument that RP only lost one game in his entire tenure that he was supposed to win.  (@ISU)

The only difference is the shittyness of KU during their tenures.

I would add @Baylor, @NU during Callahan's last year, @Fresno State, and @Louisville. All of these games were on the road, but all of those teams were terrible, and they all blew us out. For me, the most frustrating thing about watching Ron Prince's teams were that his defense always sucked and he did nothing offensively to control the tempo of the game and help them out.

LHC Bill Snyder should not be fired after only 2 seasons. I expect progress, and if we don't get 9 wins next year, I will start to get impatient. Do I think that will happen? No. Do I think Snyder should be given a chance to make that happen? Yes.

I was thinking the same thing. In 2011, we'd conceivably have a solid group of upperclassmen who have been grayshirted/redshirted, a senior QB in Tuggle and a redshirt soph QB in Sams. Seems like a good team to hand it off.

You think TX will be more vulnerable with Mack gone?

Historically, TX has only been good with Mack Brown or Darrell Royal as head coach. To think they will be better without Mack is laughable.

They have a huge pool of talent waiting to be picked from, they have a very active fan base, and they are rich as hell.  TX will be the best opening in the nation when it needs a new coach.  Don't be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

The new coach will be expected to be as good as Mack Brown, and will probably be fired after his third season. It is hard to win 11 games per season, no matter what school you are coaching. Nine or ten wins per year with the occasional 12 win season is not good enough at Texas, and the first 6 or 7 win season will get a coach fired.

If everyone thinks we're a 7-8 win program (I don't disagree), why are we rough ridin' around with Snyder?  I mean, Prince sucked, but it isn't like he made us a 2-3 win program.  A bowl in two years isn't some kind of miracle turnaround we're dealing worth here.

It's weird that people think we're a 9-win kind of program. We're a 7/8-win program with a chance at 10/11-win season every 3-4 years when our recruiting classes fall out just right. At best.

If the Big 12 were continuing with the 12 teams and division play, then 9-win seasons are an acceptable expectation with LHC Bill Snyder. You get your 4 freebies from the non-con, then you should be able to go 5-3 most years. Most years you should be better than at least 3 teams in the North, and then you need to pick up 2 wins out of the 5 remaining games. Not unreasonable with LHCBS, right?

With the new conference format, who knows how it will play out and what a reasonable expectation should be.

But back to the quote above.  Part of the reason people are pissed is that this year should have been one of those chances at a 10/11 win season and a run at the conference championship.  Big 12 is way, way down.  We should have been competitive versus Nebraska and Mizzou. We should have defeated OSU at home.  

We weren't in a position to do that because 5 years ago, and again 2 years ago, LHC Bill Snyder decided he was bigger than K-State.  Coming off a 2003 conference championship, he allowed his assistant coaches to get lax and squander any momentum that should have been gained.  Recruiting went downhill.  The team on the field failed to execute like it should have.  For crying out loud, they let the long snapper hike the ball to an invisible punter standing in the OU endzone.

When the AD told Snyder he needed to make changes for the good of the program, Snyder decided he was bigger than K-State and that he would retire instead of making changes that were obviously needed.

When the Ron Prince Experience came to its explosive end, K-State had a chance to acquire a coach who knows how to defend the spread, who is a part of the K-State family (not something I personally require but that a lot of our fans seem to want), and whose team is now contending for national championships.  But at this point, Snyder once again put his interests ahead of K-State's, decided he wanted a second crack at going out the right way, and got back into the game.  

To be fair, Snyder probably felt like this was in K-State's best interests, and an opportunity for him to restore the program to where it should have been had he made the appropriate personnel changes at the end of his first tenure.  It started off okay...he was going to get young, hungry assistants who could recruit and had the energy to get the program winning again.  Other top head coaches were going to funnel assistants and recruits our way.  Andy Ludwig and Vic Koenning were good starts.  Then Ludwig arrived at MHK, claimed his baggage, and immediately got on an outbound flight.  Koenning gave us a year before hightailing it to Illinois, and suddenly, here we are again with the Assistant Coach All Stars who let to Snyder's first retirement.

Of course, those recruiting leads never really materialized (except for the transfers, which are good), so in a year of great opportunity, we were left with 2 QBs who, if combined, could make a pretty good starter, a small, slow-ish, not particularly intelligent defense, and those fantastic assistant coaches to whip it all into shape.  

People who are upset with what looks to be an 8 win season are upset because, when taken in the macro view, it could have been much, much more.  They're afraid that 8 wins will cover what are some serious deficiencies in coaching and playing personnel, so changes won't be made and the end result will be that we're back to where we were at the end of Snyder's first tenure:  great years are not 10-11 wins; they're this year:  8 wins.  Average years are 5-6 wins.

Hopefully, this time around it's different. Cosh gets demoted and a new DC/HCIW not named Sean Snyder is brought in for next year.  The offensive recruits pan out and some defensive recruits are found and acquired.  Given where we're at, that's about the best we can hope for, and with the right HCIW, it may give us a pretty good shot at laying the groundwork for a solid program long-term.

Guys, since a 12th game was added in 2006, 9 wins is the new 8. It just is not as impressive as it used to be. This year's team is terrible and still has a decent shot a 9 wins. I don't think it's that unrealistic to want a coach who will recruit decent talent and make us competitive enough to beat 3 patsies and beat our mediocre conference opponents.

Point made on the importance of a coach.  However, that still doesn't explain why they should count as an extra win on KSU's schedule if we both switch coaches in the near future.

Most coaches, even good ones, simply have no answer for Mike Leach's offense. If I know that KSU is getting Leach and do not know who Texas is getting, I like Mike Leach. If Texas gets somebody like Pete Carroll (won't happen), then I would change my mind.

There are plenty of sound points there slimz, but this is a reach given the talent we have.  Yeah, you could say it seems that way b/c we were in those games and had chances to win.  But I'd argue those chances were much more due to coaching and putting kids in position to win over anything else.  I won't argue that coaching mistakes were made in each game, but this staff took a team that is way below their scholarship limit, with few defensive playmakers, with no complete QB, with 2 of its best WRs out, etc. and had them arguably on the verge of a 10 win season.  IMO in the end the more talented teams won out, and its hard to argue any of the teams that beat us have less talent than we do.  Really, you have to look at this both ways.  The truth is somewhere in between the "we are terribly coached and Snyder sucks" angle and "Snyder has done a hell of a job coaching this group up".  It seems we've got to have it one way or the other when depending on what you look at both are probably true.  

Saying "this team is terrible" is not accurate either.  Is this team terrible compared to K-State 03 or 98 or whatever?  Probably, but that shouldn't be the sole guage.  Compared to college football this team is about where it should be, and comparing college football talent level and rosters, this team is maybe a bit better than it should be.  There are tons of incomplete teams in college football, and this is another one of those.  We have a decent offense (despite a clear QB), good special teams, and a bad defense.  We are really limited with the playmakers we have, especially on defense, but also on offense.  When you have that, most likely you are going to be a .500 or slightly above team. 

I don't see how anyone is suprised by where we are at or that the season has gone the way it has.  We've pretty much performed how someone would reasonably expect us to perform, and probably slightly better (1 win or so) than anyone here expected.

I'm OK with what LHC Bill Snyder has done so far.  The program was on a decline under Ron Prince, no doubt.  Our recruiting was getting worse every year, and our conference record got worse every year:

7-6 (4-4)
5-7 (3-5)
5-7 (2-6)  (Would've been a game worse overall if Krause hadn't blown $800,000 to buy out the Fresno State game.)

If KSU beats CU and UNT, I'd say Snyder has "calmed the waters."  Recruiting has improved and we've gone 4-4 in conference each season -- which was Prince's highlight season.  (Those who point to KU and UT getting worse, forget that NU, BU and OSU have gotten better.)

So, I just don't get the hate.  Obviously, Snyder's not going to coach forever.  And to say you expected 10 wins this season, with this team, is just nutty.  Either people have unrealistic expectations for KSU to be a national power every year, or I'd have to guess that people are still just upset about 2004 and 2005...

Even with a tougher schedule, not being able to win as many games next year with all of the extra talent coming in than we won this year is a sign that Snyder has plateaued and it's time to find somebody else.

As I'm sure I posted on here before the season, I expected 4 or 5 wins this season, so they've far surpassed my expectations headed into the season. However, I didn't anticipate how bad the Big 12 was going to be as a conference.

But preseason expectations really wasn't the point of my post.  The point was, in light of the Big 12's suckiness, this actually turned out to be an opportunity year...an opportunity year that we lost most likely because of decisions that LHC Bill Snyder has made over the last 5 years.  We don't have the players and coaches to take advantage of this opportunity year because of decisions Snyder has made in previous years.  The importance of this coming offseason is to observe whether Snyder has learned from those and is prepared to make decisions that will better serve the long-term interests of this program.

Wow, the floodgates of irrationality have really opened up in this thread.  

Being a program that averages nine wins over a 12 game season is a 75% winning percentage.  Add in the bowl season and it is a 69% winning percentage.

Including only BCS teams and Notre Dame, there very few that can even accomplish that feat for an entire decade.  KSU did manage this during the DoD, but it will be tough to duplicate.

Since the 1970's only 27 programs have managed a 69% winrate, and a mere 19 have managed 75% for an entire calender decade.  And the only ones who have been able to manage averaging 75% more than once are college football royalty.  

OU 70s, 80s, 00s
Mich 70's, 80s, 90s
Neb 70s, 80s, 90s
Penn St 70s, 80s, 90s
Ohio St 70s, 90s
USC 70s, 00s
Texas 70s, 00s
Miami 80s, 90s
Georgia 80s, 00s
Fla St 80s, 90s
Florida 90s, 00s

I'm not saying that being that good shouldn't be a goal, but to expect that kind of performance is hyperbolic.  I'm not saying that Snyder is the only guy that could have ever won big here, but the proof is in the pudding and until proven otherwise that kind of achievement will continue to be the exception rather than the rule.  I do, however, believe that it should be expected to be competitive over a majority of the long-haul.

If we play and beat a BCS team in our bowl game then I will very pleased with the season.   It's hard for me to consider a team ( in a major BCS conference) having a successful season without beating a single BCS team with a winning record.

I'm not saying that we should average 9 wins, but the fans should be disappointed with less. Not being able to win 9 or even 10 games for an extended period of time should be a reason to fire the coach.

But preseason expectations really wasn't the point of my post.  The point was, in light of the Big 12's suckiness, this actually turned out to be an opportunity year...an opportunity year that we lost most likely because of decisions that LHC Bill Snyder has made over the last 5 years.  We don't have the players and coaches to take advantage of this opportunity year because of decisions Snyder has made in previous years.  The importance of this coming offseason is to observe whether Snyder has learned from those and is prepared to make decisions that will better serve the long-term interests of this program.

I think there is some truth in that about Snyder, but there are plenty of other factors as well.  That is far from the sole reason we are where we are.

As far as taking advantage of a bad Big 12 season; if we win at CU we've largely done that to the extent that we could with our schedule.  The only game you can really argue that we didn't would be the Baylor game, and I won't disagree that we probably should've won there.  Even then, I still can't look at Baylor's roster and think that they aren't more talented than we are either.  Every other game we've lost is to a team far more complete and talented than we are, but that didn't stop us from having a chance in two of those.  Finding a way to win either of those would've made this a fantastic season.

Still, given what we have coming, its not like future of K-State football is terrible.  We're should have a deeper, more talented team next year.  We'll see if we can surpass the win total.

And again, a loss at CU would be terribly disapointing to me, but I think we'll win there.

I want to reiterate that on a micro level, I think Snyder's done a fine job this season, and better than I expected. The Mizzou game wasn't his finest moment, but they were the better team and we made a better showing than I thought we would.  However, we've won more games than I thought we would mainly because the other teams were worse than I anticipated, not because this team played much better than I thought it would.

My concern lies on the macro level. We should not forget that the waters were stormy in the first place because Snyder refused to fire lousy assistants.  While we're giving him credit for the results this season and "doing the most with what he had," we have to remember that he himself helped get us to the point where he now "doesn't have that much to work with."  I want to see offseason decisions that reflect a recognition of and willingness to learn from past mistakes.

I can't disagree with this.  I'd say some macro things Snyder is trying to address whole heartedly, such as the roster/scholarship/depth issue. 

But I can't disagree on the staff, I hope to see some positive changes this offseason.  It won't even take much, Mo retiring and hiring Leavitt would be pretty good.

I'm not interested in a head coach in waiting because K-State is not good enough job for anybody who is good enough to be a head coach now to take a HCIW position. I think we should just wait until Snyder steps down (or fire him if his performance warrants it) and hire the best coach we can get whenever that happens.

I bet Leach goes somewhere as on OC for a few years before he gets another HC job.  Unless he takes a HC job at some small school.  Leavitt could very well be a candidate to take on the DC job at KSU, especially if he knew he would be name HC within a year or two.

Leavitt as a defensive coordinator is probably a possibility, but I don't like the idea of locking ourselves down to him. We don't know who will be available when Snyder is done, and we might be able to do better.

The problem with hoping for elite coaches to do something scandalous and fall into our grimy, welcoming laps is that they'd have to do something pretty terrible that may just completely eliminate them from all future consideration. Like Urban Meyer molesting a kid or something. Maybe something like Brian Kelly getting busted on a bender with some strippers would work (like that WSU coach who almost went to Bama). Even then, there'd still be other programs willing to take him in ahead of us, though.

Snyder not the problem, just a great variable to the solution (but definitely not the solution). He doesn't want to still be coaching. Shell out the money for an elite assistant coach of Snyder's choosing because he knows what it takes to succeed in Kansas, make promise to assistant that he will be head coach in 3 to 4 years to keep him here. Let Snyder take us to two or three more bowl games than hand over the program once his assistant learns how snyder does things.  Problem is recruiting not coaches and Snyder knows how to get some good players here, manhattan regional airport expanding is going to be huge towards our success in the future.

Title: Re: Fire LHC Bill Snyder Master Thread
Post by: Cartierfor3 on November 20, 2010, 05:44:47 PM
It sucks right now.  

Snyder coached some great teams and brought us some great times.  Remember 2002 against USC?  How about 99 at Texas?  Good times.  When he left, it felt like the right time.  His legacy was secure.  When he came back I knew this point would come.  

For whatever reason, he's not doing the job.  We're improving from a 5-7 team with a horrible defense to a 7-5 team with a horrible defense in the 2 years he's been back.  It's been painful.  The team has gone backwards as the year went on.  CCQ has improved slightly, we run the read option pretty good with CK, but other than that this team looks like they haven't been coached.  Watching wide open recievers all year isn't a talent thing, its a coaching thing.  That is what saddens me most.

I hate to admit it, but if we're ever going to compete again for a conference championship, it needs to be under new leadership.  I'd love for him to announce that the bowl game will be his last game and to let someone else come in here.

As to who it will be?  Doesn't matter.  Yeah, Prince might happen again, but for us that's the risk we have to take.  We have to get someone young and energized.  Maybe they'll be in over their heads, maybe it will be a homerun.  Just don't give us some old retread like Jim Levitt.

Leavitt is likely better than anyone we will end up with.  We don'y get Huggs if he wasn't fired.  And even then, he was only here for a year before he bent us over.  We ended up with a guy who had never been a HC above the high school level.  Yeah, we got crazy lucky with Frank but I kinda doubt we would get that lucky again.  We're basically looking at dudes like Leavitt or Leach (though I doubt Leach would take this job) or some young, unproven coordinator.  We may get lucky and hire some young hotshot that recruits like a mother and surrounds himself with a talented staff.  Or we may end up with Prince.  Or worse, Gill.  I would say we should fire Cosh now but leave Snyder in until a nice hire is made available.  Keep Snyder around for now because he's not that bad but start a secret coach search.  If we get a guy we like, let Snyder know that it's time for him to step down.  One last game for everyone to sucks his dick one last time and then in with whatever the new regime is.  I don't want to cut Snyder loose and scramble to find his replacement.  We would totally lose any decent recruits we have and that would set us back even further.  You don't go car shopping when your car blows up, you go when you can take your time and find the exact right car for you.

If Tubbs does win @ TTU then he won't be a candidate here.  I don't see Rich Rod coming here.  Dude would go over like a lead zepplin with our fanbase and boosters.  Plus I just don't like that guy.  Fedora would be a very exciting hire.  Tons of recruiting connections in OK, FL, and Texas, and he recuits like a mother @ SMU.  Malzahn would also be great but I would constantly be terrified when the Ark. job looked like it might be open.  Would love to see what Gus could do with Tuggle and Sams.  We could have one hell of an offense next year.  Kinda warming up to this idea, if we ended up with a Fedora or Malzahn type.  (Oh, and Malzahn has to bring in a badass DC.)

Chings-  USF was ranked #2 in the 7th week, after beating #17 Auburn and #5 WVU.  Yeah, they did lose the next three but the finished 9-3 and ranked #21.  Doesn't sound bad for a team in it's 3rd year in the FBS.

I just can't think of anyone we are going to be able to hire that is better than Snyder.  I'd rather be where we're at right now than where we were 3 yrs ago and I am terrified we're going to end up with some douchebag like Prince again.

I'm afraid of this too, but 6-7 win seasons can be had pretty easily.  our def is just as bad as under prince, the recruiting is equal at best to prince, the only difference is the big 12 is down and Bill has gotten a few extra wins out of it.

I have faith that this regime can find a more proven coach than the cluster we had back in '05 running the show.  at worst we find someone who could equal what Snyder is doing now IMO.

Gus Malzahn
Larry Fedora
Venables
Brady Hoke
Rich Rodriguez after he gets fired
Ruffin McNeil



Basketball posters are also the smartest posters on this shitty board too, great list.  Trim also mentioned this earlier in the thread too.  I am so sick of seeing people, even smart people talk about retread coaches.  When the day comes we should and will have a legit search and interview process and will hire the best coach, not some flunky.

The fact that your list includes old dudes, linemen, QBs not nearly as good as Robinson, and players who may touch the ball three proves that Robinson belongs on that list.  Jesus you have Dan Dierdorf and Jim Harbaugh on your list.  Harbaugh won Big 10 POY and finished 3 in the Heisman as a Senior, Robinson is going to do those things as a true sophomore.  BTW, I asked you to justify your stance not solidify mine.  The fact that you couldn't name one player better and why they are makes my point stronger.  I didn't ask you for a list of good Michigan players.  Dan Dierdorf, lol!

I was born in the early 70's.  Anyone who thinks we are headed in the right direction is delusional.  IF he gets rid of some assistants and shows he can recruit again then MAYBE things can work but I don't see it.

Actually, I think I've said several times that it may be time to move on.  I just don't agree with all the retards on this board that only talk about 4 bad years and not the 13 good years.  Snyder is a HOF type of coach and we will likely never have another coach like that.

So you've changed your mind since the Colorado game?  Before we were all retards if we didn't believe in a "Hall of Fame coach" that could win 9 games this year.  Now he's a "hall of fame TYPE coach" that needs to go.  Is this like when you wanted to call out the retards that didn't think we would win 8 games, when you yourself didn't predict 8 wins?

I want to totally buy in for this season, so badly.  But, my heart's been broken so many times that I'm a bit reluctant this year.

It's easy to say you're right about something when you don't take a consistent stance.  This is one of those times when your inability to shut the eff up is good for the rest of us.  I didn't have to look hard for this I'm sure if I wanted to waste anymore on you I'm sure I can find other examples of you contradicting yourself.  This wouldn't be an issue if you weren't such a big mouthed bitch.

SD already pointed this out once, apparently your juggalo head is too methed out to remember a thread from two and a half weeks ago.  How's 8-4 working out?

Guys, first post after leaving the octogenarian confines of the scout board.  Seems to me the biggest issue for most fans is that, outwardly, we seem to have absolutely no long-term head coaching plan, and we're seriously worried there isn't anyone coming.  At this point, I don't think firing Snyder is the answer, but who do we realistically think could come in and work long-term?  Who wants to?  I'm of the opinion there are only a couple coaches in the entire country who could put us at the top of the new Big 12, and we aren't getting them.  Seriously, long-term, who do you want to lead us and what is our ceiling?

what's long term mean?  if you're banking on someone coming in and coaching here until he retires then you've seriously limited your candidate pool.  there's nothing wrong w/ a coach coming here and going somewhere else after 4 years because he's developed into a hot commodity.  it's more than likely he's leaving the program better than he found it.

I think the point is that the situation you are describing is not helped in the least by LHC Bill Snyder's omni-presence and inability to move on from the program.  Prince was a terrible hire, but Snyder poisoned the waters plenty to keep us from getting a better coach then.  You realize he kept an office, right?  You realize he insisted upon Sean retaining his job, right?

I mean untill Currie kicks Bill and his cronies out, it will always be a mess and we will never be taken seriously.  A competent coaching search will probably turn up a competent candidate.  If it doesn't then I will be disappointed, but it will be on its own terms and we will finally move on.  Right now, the levels of delusion are poison.

wut

This is about your constant contradictions and inability to admit you're wrong.  You took a strong stance more than once about your expectations, they didn't match up.  I didn't make a prediction because I had no idea what to expect from the team or the opponents.  You should take my cue and occasionally shut up, thankfully for the entertainment of the board you won't. 

So are you relieved that the season is disappointing since you didn't buy in, or are you upset that the hall of fame coach isn't going to be 8-4 nor pick up a win against a bcs team with a winning record?  Considering everyone who didn't expect 8-4 are "bitches" I'm going to guess the latter.

We could well end up @ 8-5, about what I predicted.  Obviously I did buy into the team a bit, hence the predicted record.  Thanks for spending so much of your time on the f-ball board worrying about me though.  And the majority of this aren't actually bitches, I just like to ruffle people's feathers.  You, on the other hand, are most definitely a bitch in every sense of the word.  My bitch.  Don't say nothin, just bite the pillow.

You'll never be 100% sure that the next guy will improve on what you have now.  Even getting better under Patterson wouldn't be a 100% guarantee.  The difference is that with a guy like Fedora or Mahlzan, you at least have a chance at something better (and potentially great), even if there is a risk that it could get worse.  (Although there is not much room to get worse).

I mean, if our ceiling is 7 goddam wins, we should have joined the MWC when we had the chance.

Actually, if Snyder was 20 years younger and didn't completely suck for two straight recruiting classes, I wouldn't be that upset with the results this season.  He will be 80 (roughly) by the time his first decent class is seniors (assuming this class ends up decent).  Then what?  At least with a younger coach you could have the illusion that a program is being built.  We are building nothing with Bill..

I would be more than willing to see what a younger coach could do in his 3rd year (I'm actually willing to give Snyder another year), but right now Snyder is probably only going to have one more win than Ron Prince did in his first 2 seasons. I know a lot of people who wanted Ron fired after his second year.

8 wins in the reg season would have been fine for me if we had beat more than one decent team.

I will be somewhat placated if we play and beat a BCS team in a bowl game.

It's hard for me to get too excited about a bowl victory because I don't think bowl results are very indicative of the quality of the teams playing in them.

What has made Snyder successful in the past is good assistants.  He had two good ones, but one of them never made it and shuffled off to Cal, the other stayed a year and shuffled off to Illinois.  Unless he fires or demotes some people and hires people who can get the job done, he will never be as successful.  Also, if he is going to stay around a plan needs to be in place for a future head coach. 

Otherwise KSU will be stuck in the wilderness of 5-7 wins per year and no or crappy bowl game.   :goodbyecruelworld:

What on earth is Kansas State thinking? First, they fire their coach only two-plus years into his contract, thereby giving new meaning to the word "panicking." Then they bring back the coach they were trying to ease into retirement! LHC Bill Snyder is 69 years old, his top assistants from his heyday are all head coaches and he'll be working with an empty cupboard, as Ron Prince stocked up on juco transfers. Is K-State trying to replace Iowa State as the laughing stock of the league? -- Phil O'Donoghue, Florence, Mass.

Mandel: You know those motivational posters that people hang in their offices with just a picture and a single word, like "persistence" or "perseverance?" Kansas State AD Bob Krause ought to hang one on his wall that just says: "Desperation."

Look, what Snyder accomplished during his tenure in Manhattan was indescribably impressive. He took arguably the worst program in the country and turned it into an annual top-10 fixture during the late '90s and early 2000s. But one of the reasons the Wildcats find themselves in the situation they are today is that the program took a noticeable downturn during the last couple years of his tenure. One of the main reasons Prince felt the need to bring in so many juco players was due to a void of upperclassmen on his roster -- classes that were recruited during Snyder's last two years on the job.

Bringing him back in to "save the day" seems to me a classic case of small-time thinking. Snyder is still a revered figure at Kansas State, understandably so, and the fan base's only taste of football success came under his watch. At the first sign of trouble, they go begging for him to return. Meanwhile, Snyder, like so many coaches, always struck me as one of those single-minded guys that simply isn't suited for retirement. It's no surprise that when his school came calling, he jumped at the chance to come back.

But how exactly will this help Kansas State in the long term? No one, not even Snyder, is under the delusion he'll be there for more than a couple of years. The idea is he'll get things headed back in the right direction, then pass the buck to a hand-chosen successor. (Note that Prince was not Snyder's preferred replacement.) But how exactly will he do that? How do you sell recruits on a nebulous transition plan? Most likely, he'll go back to doing exactly what he did 10-15 years ago (as well as what Prince did) and bring in a bunch of juco kids who will be gone by the time the next coach arrives. Sorry, I don't see the Wildcats getting much better in a hurry.

I'm one of those people who feels like if you do not remember your history then you are destined to copy it, and no one likes a copy cat, so we need to just flush all that stuff out of heads and brains and focus on new things that are not from the past.

Hence, Arthur Brown is the only reason we are any good now. Tomato soup = bad, Arthur Brown at KSU = good.

Anyone on this message board who doesn't realize that the old stuff that LHC Bill Snyder inteded to copy by putting Cosh in charge of the defense was bad, is not focusing on new stuff.  They are copy cats.  Arthur Brown is 7-0.

Some people are motivated by encouraging words, pats on the back, and praise.  Others by the opportunity to prove doubters wrong. LHC Bill Snyder is obviously the latter. After our Big XII championship in 2003 there were no more doubters, no more criticism. With nobody to prove wrong LHC Bill Snyder lost his motivation to succeed and subsequently we had two of our most disappointing seasons in the LHC Bill Snyder era. Since his return, goEMAW.com has provided the doubt, criticism and personal attacks LHC Bill Snyder requires to be a successful coach.

The simple fact is that we have a real possibility of being 10-1 this season.  We're not beating OSU in Stillwater. But OU, A&M, UT.  Who knows.

A huge part of this is Snyder.  His coaching/discipline.  His motivation.  Somehow, he's got this team in the Top 10.  We actually look like a legitimate program again.  There is not a single person on this board who saw this coming. 

Is he the future?  Is he more than a 3-4 year fix?  Absolutely not. 

But for eff's sake.  Give some credit where credit is due.  If everything pans out (i.e. we return this ENTIRE team year), this program will be in a very solid position to bring in a quality head coach. 



Will we make the right hire?  Probably not.  We're K-State.  But god damn, how can anybody sit here, now, at 7-0, and say that bringing in Snyder was a bad decision?

turner, that's about it.
Really?  So you seriously still think LHC Bill Snyder was the second worst hire we could've made behind Gill?  I mean, I understand that there's still the question of a long-term plan, but he's got a team of scrappy  :star: :star: :star: at 7-0 with wins over Miami and 2 pretty good Big XII teams.  And he's the SECOND WORST hire we could've made?

yeah, pretty much. thinking long term.

:shakesfist:  How is it bad long term to hand the team over to new guy after three bowl seasons in a row and better overall recruiting to work from?

three bowl seasons in a row? when did that happen?

If we are doing this good with Cosh as DCord just think how good we would be with leavit as DCord.  We would probably be picked to win out now.  Instead we will probably go 10-2 or 9-3.  Should have been 12-0  :bang: :curse: :chainsaw:

Leavitt sucks. Always has, always will.

you take that back  :shakesfist:

That's the problem with our fanbase.  They're all wrapped up in the present and can't think about the future. 

It's perfectly fine to be happy with the current season and still be pissed/worried about the future, especially since Snyder has a track record of getting lazy after big seasons.

In the event of Bill actually winning a national championship, who the eff cares if he steps down/dies/whatever. None of it would matter. We will have already won.

Long term, Snyder is absolutely destroying this program.  

From roster depth to TV exposure, we're spiraling.  By 2013, who knows how much damage he'll have done...

But it's rough ridin' Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) to still say that a coach that has us at 7-0 with 4 conference wins is the second worst hire we could've made.  It wreaks of somebody that can't admit he might've been wrong.

I mean, does the fact that we hired Snyder again automatically mean that our next coach is going to suck?  If our coach dies of old age on the sidelines do we have to forfeit the rest of the season?  I'm just trying to figure out what I should be pissed/worried about.  And how far out should I be worried/pissed about?

Bill needs to win about 9 or 10 in a row to really establish us as a national power.  Even shitty programs like Nebraska and Texas win a national championship every once in a while.  We need to get up in the OU/USC/Bama range.

Yeah, because HOF coaches are beating down Curries door.

He hasn't coached like a HOF coach for probably a decade now though. 

27-30 in conference going back to the 2001 season.

now 31-30 in conference since

this is interesting. You think this team, who returns 75% of the two deep...won't go to a bowl next year?


or is it just hoping?

don't worry, we'll beat OU Saturday and all will be well.
