Title: Why so sad Cats?
Post by: Blackcats on January 15, 2016, 03:46:03 PM
Before you all start gnashing teeth, tearing clothes and wearing burlap (read your bible for the reference) here is what has been talked about in ITK circles:

1. There will be at least one coordinator retiring.
2. Jim Levitt is a name widely believed to be filling a spot.
3. People who had attended the ground breaking of the NE corner were openly talking at the WVU game about a gentlemen agreement with Brent Venables already a done deal. No time line. Brent is happy where he's at, what he's making, where his son is playing HS football. He's in no rush, but DOES want to coach the Cats when Bill hangs up the windbreaker.
4. Bill is reportedly on board. Sean will be held over to the new staff doing what he does now. Title may change, may not.
5. Bill is not going anywhere until he hits 200 wins, health willing. He set a goal and damn it he's going to show those youngsters that you don't give up on goals. After he hits 200, he'll actually sit down and map out and exit, not until then.
6. If Bill does leave/die mid season, Currie will only give the interim title to a coach with head coach credentials, like Dimel...or any other coordinator that might (might) come on staff with prior HC experience.

All we need is 7 wins, guys. Stanford makes this goal difficult, however, we got this!

-Florida Atlantic
-Missouri State
-KU
-Iowa State
-TTech
-Texas
-WVU

Also, maybe we get to 6 and then win a bowl game!  :lol:

So Currie traded for the right to hire Venables next and gave Bill the right to hire Levitt? If so, that is pretty BA.

He'll turn 46 years old next season and he's been a defensive coordinator for 17 seasons, we're not talking about Kirby Smart here. Venables is nearly six years older than Lane Kiffin.

1. There was no surprise or denial when BV was brought up.
2. I'm not as convinced it's as done a deal as WSC residents/tucks claimed at the WVU game.
3. Feb 8th could be interesting.

I appreciate blackcats providing scoop, but I wonder if these donors are talking about what they want to happen instead of what's reality. "Hey stick around for a month while telling recruits that you'll be around longer then we'll let you go, meanwhile feel free to tell that guy with a box who lives in Mission the same thing." We go into games not knowing who in the hell the quarterback is or who is on the roster yet we expect accurate info about what coaches are retiring or getting fired in the future. LOL.

This goes back to the meetings last December that Bill had with Leavitt and Venables.

Now did he have the same conversation with both of them?  I don't know.  I do feel confident that we're willing to overpay Leavitt to be the DC here.  I do feel comfortable believing that Leavitt and Venables are still relatively close.  I don't believe that Leavitt and Venables being at Kansas State are mutually exclusive.

Blackcats has always been consistent with me in saying that Leavitt was coming as DC, regardless of what we were doing with Brent.  Would Brent keep Leavitt on if he got the job here?  I think there is a comfort level there, so I wouldn't discount it.

It's Leavitt for Hayes, and Venables politely told K-State (?) that he'd love to be a head coach at KSU when that job comes open.  Pretty good play by him if it has K-State (?) giving him right of first refusal someday while he can continue to look around.

IMO, Snyd's knew he wasn't going to hang it up this year. They do have a strategy to turn it over to BV.  They knew the DC position will be open this coming year.  So, knowing BV will want his own staff, they have a sit down with BV and ask who he wants as DC.  It is agreed to bring in Leavitt.  So, Leavitt is already here when BV comes.  But this is also a backup in case something happens that BV doesn't come, Leavitt again is already here.  No inside info, just my two cents from seeing the timetables of things.

Then it's a well coordinated smokescreen, and you'll have an AD who has basically built his career on finding capital to build stuff actively burning bridges with the folks most likely and able to provide him with said capital.

Enough people believe it's going to happen where it's safe to say something is happening.  Either conversations, or a handshake, or whatever, but Currie and Venables are talking or have talked.  JL may be plan B, so it may happen, but Currie isn't stupid enough to alienate the most important part of his constituency for some ruse that leads to the hiring of a 60 year old to take over his football program.

That is all reasonable, but if bill is truly being wishy washy about timeline, then it would severely undercut Currie's doing of anything other than running hypotheticals by ppl like Venzy.

Enough people believe it's going to happen where it's safe to say something is happening.  Either conversations, or a handshake, or whatever, but Currie and Venables are talking or have talked.  JL may be plan B, so it may happen, but Currie isn't stupid enough to alienate the most important part of his constituency for some ruse that leads to the hiring of a 60 year old to take over his football program.
It won't alienate his constituency.   He'll look like a hero.

If the donors are all going around saying they're getting Venables, and they want Venables, and you're telling them you have a deal with Venables, you'll be a hero by giving them Jim Leavitt?

That makes complete sense.

Guys, LNCAAACCIQ (Low National Collegiate Athletic Association Assistant Coach Contract IQ), but is there any significance (financially, reputation wise) to the date if a coach signed his current contract on January 19th (BV) or February 5th (JL)?

Yes.  By the time JL is head coach BV will be seen as a unreliable traitor who probably wouldn't have been a good fit anyway and Jim will be there to save the day.  Our AD is great at hush-hush smear campaigns against coaches and players it.

Come on, we've got a few plane on the Tarmac stories, but from that perspective we are utterly outclassed by many other fanbases. 

I'd also like too encourage Blackcats to continue posting everything from the laughably insane to the chiseled in limestone tidbits, rumors and hearsay.

What's the over/under on new wacky progeny by the time this game is played?  I'm going 2.5.

I'm taking the over.  Two, by regular means.  Then the third, a surprise, after a "botched" vasectomy in which he promised his wife he'd get one, told her he actually did, but didn't actually.

The Hyperloop KCI to PHX trip time should be about 2 hrs or so.  May go if coach Kiffin has us playing well.
How much are we going to be paying him by that time?$10 mil?

Before you all start gnashing teeth, tearing clothes and wearing burlap (read your bible for the reference) here is what has been talked about in ITK circles:

1. There will be at least one coordinator retiring.
2. Jim Levitt is a name widely believed to be filling a spot.
3. People who had attended the ground breaking of the NE corner were openly talking at the WVU game about a gentlemen agreement with Brent Venables already a done deal. No time line. Brent is happy where he's at, what he's making, where his son is playing HS football. He's in no rush, but DOES want to coach the Cats when Bill hangs up the windbreaker.
4. Bill is reportedly on board. Sean will be held over to the new staff doing what he does now. Title may change, may not.
5. Bill is not going anywhere until he hits 200 wins, health willing. He set a goal and damn it he's going to show those youngsters that you don't give up on goals. After he hits 200, he'll actually sit down and map out and exit, not until then.
6. If Bill does leave/die mid season, Currie will only give the interim title to a coach with head coach credentials, like Dimel...or any other coordinator that might (might) come on staff with prior HC experience.

Not a lot to add to this but one important variable change since the post on number 5 regarding " after 200 he'll actually sit down and map out an exit, not until then ".....the sitting down and mapping out has already occurred. Short on details but confirm that there is at least a solid map.

In my opinion things are not very similar now to what they were from the 50's to the 80's.  So personally, I will not use that period of time to provide guidance on how the future of the sport of football at the D1 level and the KSU program will proceed.  However, for completely different reasons I agree that we'll keep our football team for 7 more years.

there are 6 coaches on the current staff, who could have heart attacks right now and it would in no way surprise me.

I'm sure they're all on a boatload of statins, aspirin, and blood pressure meds to make sure that don't happen.

Duh, that's how you have to be with 'Cat athletics. Never get your hopes up in a serious manner so when something positive does eventually happen and come along its that much easier to whip it out and get excited about.

I've got nothing to add to this thread.  My sources are mum on the whole thing.  I'll ask them about BV or coaching changes and I get no response.  Players leaving, injuries, who looks good in practice, anything else, I can get tidbits, but if ask about the coaches I'm literally blacklisted for a week. :dunno:
