Should we send emails, Blackcats?

How many does ADGT and/or Venables need to see?

It would be pretty amazing.

The regression was bad, but that team was quite a bit more hyped than this one, so the discrepancy seemed even worse.

Voters definitely weigh tournament results way too much, but it wasn’t crazy at all to have KSU ranked at the start of this season. We returned pretty much everyone from a team that earned an 8 seed and was already close to cracking the top 25 at the end of last season.

He actually thinks that’s how you spell smoking. :sdeek:

8181
I mean it’s still saving money even if you’re actually spending it on sunk costs.

8182
We have the financial capacity right now to make someone a top 10 paid coach. That won’t always be the case. So if we can’t get a top 10 coach right now, why not basically wait until one is available and gamble on a cheaper guy in the meantime?

8183
Fine, whatever.  Just do it.  I wanted someone that could recruit but I guess someone who can't recruit at all is basically the same.

The guy can get 3 stars to commit to playing in the rough ridin' FCS in Fargo. You call that not being able to recruit?

I can’t tell if people are gE-ing, but it is WAY better to force Bill out when there aren’t any super hot prospects available. It was always going to be an awkward transition, and we certainly would’ve missed out on any top prospects because of the crappy timing in Bill “making the decision” plus the whole following a legend issue.

No matter who we hire next, we either catch lightning in a bottle or we at least give ourselves the chance to be in a position to nab the next Tom Herman type when they come up.

So really the most important thing IMO is not wasting money on an unproven. Either pay top dollar for a proven candidate or find a guy who wants to prove himself and pay him like any unproven guy. In that way, GT was probably in the right when he drew a line in how much $ we’d give a promising (but unproven) guy like LittreLL. At the same time CK makes quite a bit of sense as a gamble if we can get him cheap.

It’s been said a bunch that KSU has this massive war chest, but if we go all in on a guy who flops at KSU, that money will go away pretty quick and not be replenished nearly as fast as it came in.

8185
Definitely checks one of my boxes for a new coach.

UPDATE***   Gene Taylor is like the Gladiator in the Colosseum fighting off President & High High Level boosters for Klieman.  Gonna be a mess tonight/monday.   Stay Tuned***

ps.  the Cessna Citation is flying back now.  :Wha:

pss  NDSU football is on ESPN 2 Fri night 7pm !!  so they could even delay decision until after this game

Pet peeve: if P.S. stands for post script, it should be P.P.S.

I refuse to believe our AD is enough of a puss to take a pass on the guy he thinks is most likely to win just because he got a bunch of emails. PROVE ME WRONG GENE

They will sell tickets and receive donations if the team is winning. Unless GT is a complete dumbass, his decision should be focused entirely on hiring the guy with the best chance of winning, regardless of what the fans and donors think. The only difference is that fans will give an unpopular candidate a much shorter timespan to start winning until they call for the AD’s head.

Would be extremely disappointed in ADGT if he read this board.

Wouldn’t it be fun if it wasn’t any of those three dorks?

I kinda want CK now.

You’re probably (82% sure) going to have to get over that.

:curse:

Do we at least know when we’re gonna know? I hear the band has been warming up.

This whole thing would be different if Bohl had any kind of success outside of NDSU. Although I get j rake’s point that the team really took off after CK showed up.

Are you posting a landmark from a place with some of the highest murder rates in the world as some kind of threat on the life of KSUADGT?

I am appalled.

Also, everything said about Klieman could apply to Norvell and Neal Brown, except they haven't been anywhere near as dominant. They aren't beating Texas or OU for recruits, either.

If you’re Coke and need to hire a new President, would you rather hire a VP from Pepsi or the President of a local soda company that is dominating in Fargo, ND?

Maybe CK is as good a coach as we can get, but is he as good at managing a P5 budget and P5 administrative issues? Like, does he even have any contacts he’d reach out to who could serve as coordinators or are we basically gonna end up with an FCS staff. That all counts for something.

Yeah I don’t see why a Big 12 coach needs to recruit Texas. If they can successfully recruit elsewhere like Florida or California somehow then who gaf?

Hey assholes. Coaching is bad for Urban’s health. Do you really want to slowly kill a man just so the Cats can dominate?
