The longer Bruceketball circles the drain the less likely it is that Currie gets his big boi SEC AD Job.
If Mizzou offers I can see him taking it in a heartbeat.
Fun questions to ponder
1. Would this make it easier to ditch oscar? Could it move the timeline up a year?
2. How would currie get along with pinkel?
3. How would this effect KSU as a whole? Fundraising/more awesome buildings/snyder replacement etc...
4. What if Mizzou hires him, Currie fires Kim immediately and hires oscar?!?!
-
smell ya later johnny.
-
Well, this could be interesting. I mean, they already don't give a crap about their bb team, so he would only have to focus on fb, rather than juggling like he rough ridin' cares.
-
It's a win for everyone.
-
If #4 were guaranteed to happen I would help Currie pack.
-
Twitter will be absolutely fantastic the day that happens, btw.

Hang on, who would Schulz hire as A.D.?

Zulu

#POLLARD4KSU!!!!!!

He could move from job to job in a Beverly Hillbillies type pack and drive manner. That would keep him from having to dress as a meth dealer or rapist at the first alumni dinner. It would create that one-of-us images that he is so good at presenting.

IIRC he used the same search firm that got him the UPC job to find Currie; if accurate my money is on that

Mack

What a perfect situation for John Currie. Football is on cruise control, and whatever bball hire he makes will most likely be much better than Kim Anderson. He can focus on cleaning up Mizzou's image and making facility upgrades. He'd be great there.

Zulu
Come home Cheyenne!

I just wish he would have had more time to enact operation torpedo.

Dr. Derrick Gragg. Tulsa's AD. Hired Philip Montgomery as FB coach and Frank Haith as BB coach. I really don't think he'd hire a Frank Haith type here, but that was a good hire for Tulsa. I listen to him once a week on my drive home. He sounds like smart, personable guy. Would definantly take.

MY PLAN TO AVOID THE oscar BUYOUT IS SOUNDING A BIT MORE FEASIBLE
What was the plan?
oscar's buyout is $2.5 million. $100K/mo (first payment due immediately and then the rest over 24 months) but if oscar is employed by someone else coaching basketball that gets subtracted. So I suggested we negotiate to find oscar another job and the other school gets oscar at a reduced rate.

We need someone that is good at hiring good coaches And will look the other way for Curtis Malone types. perfect timing for a football and basketball hire.

But Weber and Kim, but eff those two losers.

I'd bet almost anything that Currie would never hire oscar again.

Fantasy situation...
Mu hires Curry who then conducts a certain Dallas hotel room meeting with oscar and Gene Keady. oscar explains all the things that went wrong, namely the players, and then moves on to MU. That's a true win win gents.

Weber going over there and making sure their program is down to the ashes too would just be a KU fan's wet dream
-
just had a thought and didn't know where to put it. currie paid some firm something like 30k to come up with oscar as the guy to hire. but what if ku gave the same people 60k and told them to tell currie to hire weber. just how deep did this thing go is what i'm wondering.
-
this is pinkel's call.
-
like, he's paying you how much? ok, well we'll double it. just be sure to tell him weber and only weber. oh no, i think he'll go for it. at least you better convince him of it, that's why we're paying you, jackass. now get out of here and make that phone call.

So lets play this game....Currie leaves for mizzou.
Does Bill take advantage of the power vacuum and immediately announce that this is his last year and he will be handing it off to sean/dimel next year? Maybe he just "Retires for health reasons" in July and hands it off to Sean/Dimel to give them a year to prove themselves.
I think the second scenario is doubtful because we will be "rebuilding/reloading" next year and we could struggle. The first scenario though.....Would force the new AD to play along or immediately be at odds with the most beloved member of the kstate family.

If this Currie thing happens, it has to change things for Bill.

I don't think he's that much of a dick. Also, I think that he knows if Sean/Dimel don't have full support of the AD then their tenure won't be long anyway.
-
I think Mack would give Sean a long hard look.
-
HA.........HA..........SUCKERS!!
[attachment deleted by admin]

i really don't understand why you guys want currie gone. so he screwed up the hobby sport hire. he's also done a lot of positive crap at ksu cats college. in fact, he's done more than any other AD we've ever had. things could be a shitload worse is what i'm saying.
-
He could hire the next fb coach.
Not knocking his fund raising ability but I don't trust his hiring ability.
-
He seems a little too conservative to hire a coach with enough upside that we could conceivably achieve the on-field/on-court success that the fans are expecting. Hiring oscar didn't do anything to help that perception.
-
If Currie leaves it cements Sean as our next FB coach (which is obviously something this board hates to think about)...probably for 2016 season if I were to guess and does nothing to remove oscar from MHK faster than March of 2016.
The only thing Currie leaving does is immediately create the potential to eff up football (like according to this board Sean will do), but hey guess ya'll can BBS with eachother about that.
You people are weird.

If he even sniffs at the job the statue is coming down.

Why would it cement Sean as the football coach for '16? Are we going to wait for over a year to find a new AD?

This isn't rough ridin' 1992. We have a school president, that like him or hate him, does not seem beholden to the interests of the good ol' boys club around K-State athletics. Seeing how he hired John Currie and JC has told Bill to eff off a couple of times, what leads you to believe that the next AD he hires won't have the same kind of authority? This moron is having trouble with your premise.

At worst Sean would be interim for a short period of time.

John Currie is everything that we thought he was is basically what I'm reading.
-
Missouri is so irrelevant I honestly had no idea Mike Alden was gone.
-
What's worse- Currie selecting the next football coach or Sean being the next coach?
-

Mizzou hiring Currie would be a blessing for K-State. The guy might be the most overrated AD in Big 12 history. He ran off an incredibly popular and successful basketball coach only to hire oscar Rough Ridin' Weber. The football program is in cruise control as long as Snyder is the coach, and all of the stadium upgrades are 100% due to Snyder's success. Currie has been riding his coattails for years now and taking full credit for it, while simultaneously making Snyder's life miserable. Oh, and plus, he refuses to release players from their scholarships and suspends athletes for so much as farting in public. The Currie love is one of the more tuckish aspects of goEMAW, but hey, he's a convincing SOB. Give him credit for that.

Spot on with the first part but when it comes to stadium upgrades/fundraising currie has been superb. I wouldn't say he was riding snyder's coattails since snyder has had this type of success(and arguably more success) in the past without significant upgrades being done. Sure college athletics is a completely different game than in the 90's early 00's but you have to give currie credit for seizing the opportunity and building us awesome stuff.

John Currie is able to raise funds marginally better than your average (competent) AD. The main reason the difference is so stark between him and our other AD's is because the other guys were composed of incompetent fools and the only man more conservative (read: resume builder, gives no fucks about future KSU success) than John Currie.

Fundraising would be dog hullabaloo if Ron Prince was running the show. Snyder winning a bunch of games and kicking ass has made the fundraising possible. Any AD with an IQ above room temperature could scrounge up enough money to build an $80 million stadium upgrade in this day and age of college athletics (with a coach like Snyder running the program*). Like I said.... Coattails.

Also, could someone explain why they expect the guy who hired oscar to get the football hire right?

Because they're terrible at football. Beems is spot on IMO
-

That's most people's biggest criticism of Currie. They just don't want Sean and Currie wouldn't let that happen. These people forget that The Animal won't either.

Some people, although they want oscar gone now, don't fully grasp how incompetent you'd have to be to make that hire in the first place.

Never take advice from a fan of a school that hires an AD who still bleeds the colors of their instate rival.
-
Also, I don't want Zulu. Anyone who hires David Beaty is unqualified.
-
yeah beems is looking at quite a paradox. either he agrees his university doesn't give a eff about football/facilities or most importantly making sure his university isn't a national laughing stock
or
its run by a series of the most incompetent or negligent admin (or insidery insurgents)
-
All the Currie hate is kinda weird imo
-
Should have just hired Brad tho. I mean maybe he couldn't have, idk
-
Also, I don't want Zulu. Anyone who hires David Beaty is unqualified.
Excellent point. That hire alone should eliminate him from consideration, IMO.

Because Gill and Weis were dog hullabaloo. Can you even read, bro? I literally just said the reason the stadium was upgraded is because of Snyder kicking ass. ADs don't just make it happen without on field success, unless maybe you're Iowa State.

Lew Perkins got enough money raised, and enough loans and bonds to build the AFC before Mark Mangino had done anything but make a couple of minor bowl games and finish a smidge above .500 a couple of times.

KU's athletic budget is at an all time high, and last time I checked, Zulu didn't run off our incredibly popular and successful basketball coach. He hasn't been great, but he's better than Currie. Some of you guys just can't agree with anyone who isn't part of the K-State cult. I will kindly bow out of this thread now and let the butthurt tucks rationalize why Currie is great and why KU sucks. Enjoy.

Winning has less to do with fundraising then expectations. K-State sold season tickets like mad when we hired Hugs before he coached a game.
Lew had a winning program in FB and did nothing, in fact failed miserably at his goals. Zulu hasn't apparently tried that hard? Don't care enough to research.
Point still stands solidly, your university a) doesn't care about being a national laughing stock or b) has a string of ADs who don't have an IQ above room temp

That was an improvement for KU standards. There was on field success and momentum with the program. But whatever, be a defensive, butthurt douche. It's who you are.

Get angered up Beems. It's what you do best. :thumbsup:

that's the difference between a townie fan and an expat fan. the townies play on the facilities when the athletes aren't around, so they care a great deal about building buildings and whatnot.

You are a fool. Currie doesn't upgrade BSFS with Ron Prince losing to KU every year and going 5-7. Period.

Vanier got $12 million dollars worth of improvements while Ron Prince was the coach, and that was with Tim Weiser and Bob Krause running the show.

The Currie love is one of the more tuckish aspects of goEMAW, but hey, he's a convincing SOB. Give him credit for that.

Fundraising's easy.

Vanier got $12 million dollars worth of improvements while Ron Prince was the coach, and that was with Tim Weiser and Bob Krause running the show.
Pffffffttttttttt..... You actually think that helps your argument? That's the small-timiest upgrade in the history of Big 12 athletics. They already replaced that facility this year. Seriously, you would disagree with me if I said the Earth revolved around the Sun.

Mizzou hiring Currie would be a blessing for K-State. The guy might be the most overrated AD in Big 12 history. He ran off an incredibly popular and successful basketball coach only to hire oscar Rough Ridin' Weber. The football program is in cruise control as long as Snyder is the coach, and all of the stadium upgrades are 100% due to Snyder's success.

Zulu has more national championships during his time at KU than K-State has in the entire history of its athletic department. Dude has also reached record high athletic revenues and upgraded/built a crap ton of new facilities.

He failed to get us into a bcs at large bowl game in 2012 so there is that.

There were Big 12 Schools like ISU and ku who had no dedicated football complex, ku was over 20 years behind K-State in building one. How many times does this have be said? How can any fan of a school who went decades without a dedicated football complex (or dedicated outdoor track facility) call anything small time? You just don't have a clue and never will. We've all said it's time for Currie to move on, but he's raised money at unprecedented levels in K-State history, I know way more about how the money was raised at K-State than you could ever pretend to know.

Fundraising would be dog hullabaloo if Ron Prince was running the show. Snyder winning a bunch of games and kicking ass has made the fundraising possible. Any AD with an IQ above room temperature could scrounge up enough money to build an $80 million stadium upgrade in this day and age of college athletics. Like I said.... Coat tails.
sooooo......why hasn't KU done it if its so easy?
Because Gill and Weis were dog hullabaloo. Can you even read, bro? I literally just said the reason the stadium was upgraded is because of Snyder kicking ass. ADs don't just make it happen without on field success, unless maybe you're Iowa State.
Never take advice from a fan of a school that hires an AD who still bleeds the colors of their instate rival.
I'm not giving advice. Just stating how it is. Don't be such a butthurt turd.
LADIQ
Winning has less to do with fundraising then expectations. K-State sold season tickets like mad when we hired Hugs before he coached a game.
Lew had a winning program in FB and did nothing, in fact failed miserably at his goals. Zulu hasn't apparently tried that hard? Don't care enough to research.
Point still stands solidly, your university a) doesn't care about being a national laughing stock or b) has a string of ADs who don't have an IQ above room temp
You are a fool. Currie doesn't upgrade BSFS with Ron Prince losing to KU every year and going 5-7. Period.
Maybe you should try and read.
I didn't say winning didn't matter. I said expectations were the bigger driver. People expected Ron Prince to fail and specifically to lose to the 3 nortards, which was unacceptable.

De facto forfeited an NCAA tournament game for a receipt in a trash can. Got us yelled at by Jay bilas. mismatched the turf. Fired frank, didn't hire brad. No beer at football games. tried to get rid of curtis kelly. Ecokat. It's really just been a long embarrassing tenure.
-
Cheyenne Zulu signed a lease on a sports complex miles off campus that was created because Bill Self, a developer and the City of Lawrence felt very philanthropic. The original plans were for all of those facilities to be built on campus. Cheyenne Zulu gets a little credit for raising enough money to build an apartment complex for basketball players . . . wow, that's tough at a place like ku, where the butthurt over Kentucky runs deep and long.

by the time zenger cuts his first check for a million dollars to pay for memorial renovation, the overrated AD in Manhattan will have already performed that same exercise 150 times.

If Currie leaves it cements Sean as our next FB coach (which is obviously something this board hates to think about)...probably for 2016 season if I were to guess and does nothing to remove oscar from MHK faster than March of 2016.
The only thing Currie leaving does is immediately create the potential to eff up football (like according to this board Sean will do), but hey guess ya'll can BBS with eachother about that.
You people are weird.
This just isn't true at all.
-
Things I want in an AD:
1. Hire and support good coaches who will win, and not crash MBB or FB. Also, stay the eff out of their way.
2. Keep up with the Jones's in facilities
3. Other stuff

currie had nothing to do with ecokat but had he, I'd like him even more

John Currie: $200 million in new facilities built on K-State owned property.
Cheyenne Zulu: Signed lease for track, softball, soccer stadium built miles off campus and partially funded by local government. Helped find money for a basketball apartment that won't be run or operated by ku athletics.
-
All I'm saying is K-State can do better than John Currie. Sheesh.
Most of us agree with you. I have no idea why Zulu keeps getting brought up. He's an incredibly low standard to judge our AD by.

hey I think we can do better too beems! :cheers: I think you guys also can do better than Zenger!!!!

At least if Currie leaves we could maybe get a guy who is, like, less weird

Agreed. Zenger is bottom 3rd of league ad's.

I think Dickstone would be a good AD FWIW
-
:Take the Bait:
I met JC and BW on the same day, i was infinitely more impressed with Currie. hes done a fantastic job running the athletic department. The oscar hire was a misstep in hindsight and probably in foresight but it is what it is. If anything making the safe hire and having it not pan out might encourage him with take more risk with his next (ie not hire Sean)
-
I think Dickstone would be a good AD FWIW
With SODJ as associate AD of reporting and planning

We'd build a 100k seat stadium bigger than the Jerry dome, get the death penalty in a year.

I would put them both on the same tier.
I'm not sure how exactly AD's would judge athletic departments as a whole though. Would a large state institution with tons of sports but little success at the important ones (Cal) be more attractive than a school that maybe doesn't play water polo or field hockey but kicks ass in bball and fball?

It probably depends on the AD. John Currie would not care at all about a school's water polo or field hockey teams.

I don't think it really matters. Dealing with Snyder's departure is a no win situation. No one you hire will ever be good enough.
Also, the oscar thing is going to get ugly before it gets better.
Contrast that with Mizzou. It will probably be easier to find a good coach to come to Mizzou after the success Pinkel has had, and you have to have a pulse to hire an upgrade to Kim Anderson.
If he got their finances in order like he did ours, he fundraised there like he did here, and he did okay with the coaches, I think that gets his career trajectory back on the path he wants. As of now, I think KSU is going to be a tough situation to step up from. We're running out of things to throw huge piles of money at to build his resume, and the coaching situations are a mess.
So, regardless of whether or not Mizzou is a better job, all things being equal, I think it's a better situation for him to step into if he wants to ultimately run an elite AD or pull a Bowlsby.
