Randen Plattner - Supposedly a K-State commit.


3
Multiple sources have indicated that when spring practice opens tomorrow, expect Blake Seiler to be handling the linebacker coaching duties left by Mike Cox.

Whether this is a temporary move or something more longterm is yet to be seen.

For K-State, this is a good scenario for immediate needs. Thanks to the maturity and development of Taylor Godinet, defensive quality control and assistant recruiting director, and the new addition of Travis Britz, who returns as the replacement for former defensive graduate assistant Ross Metheny (who, it appears, is now coaching tight ends at South Alabama), the veteran staff feels comfortable letting those two oversee the defensive ends in Seiler's absence from the group this month.
*Side note: Stanton Weber may also be a new face on the coaching staff when the time comes to update the 2017 roster page*

Again, what happens after spring, we aren't sure yet. I'd consider this a dress rehearsal/interview for someone like Godinet. If that doesn't meet expectations or if someone more qualified/experienced emerges from outside, this current move with Seiler provides the luxury of Snyder having more time to potentially seek out defensive assistants early this summer before fall camp opens.

Seiler gets added experience at a new position. Godinet gets his feet wet handling a position group himself. Snyder gets more time to evaluate any and all options before deciding on the best solution. It's a win-win all around... unless of course you're at your limit with K-State coaching drama, o_O, in which case this will now roll on for at least a few more weeks/months!

There is no way someone with only 9 posts could have accumulated enough goEMAW rewards points to fly to Tokyo.

I'm an expert lurker.  SD showed me the way.  30k united to fly to Tokyo.  Still have 200K UR's to fund the airfare between each stop.  Can we change the thread title to "SJJ follows through on going to Tokyo"??

coach to tok doesn't sound too fun

Yea will be a bit painful but I slept through most of a flight last summer on coach IAH to IST.  Just need some ambien and I'll be okay.

So I decided to take some time off from the rat race and put in my two weeks.  I will be traveling for a few months ( :kstategrad:) and my first stop is Tokyo.  Did this trip ever happen?  Pro tips?  I really want to attend a taping of a game show while I'm there.

A few friends and I are planning a trip to Europe next fall (probably late September early October).  Tell me step by step what cards I should get to help with the airfare and hotel rooms.  I want you guys to do all the work for me so spell it out.

Actually many of the towns listed in this thread just give away land.  Do other states do this? :dunno:

Now I just want to see photoshops of city limit signs and post cards with awkwardly true assessments of the nominated town.

There is a sign on I-70 that says "WaKeeney: It's Affordable". Always struck me as a pretty sad boast.

 :lol:

"We're Poors"

Lehigh - "Small, but it's home."

Lincoln - "Free Land"

A place so horrible they give you a free piece of land to put your trailer on.
