It this Bill's last season?

[TheHamburglar]

Wacky, your missing the previously torn ACL part of that.  The dimension part was to show how easy of a target that knee was.  He's 6'3" and we were putting him in a position to have players 70 pounds heavier than him repeatedly tackling him from the side, diving at that knee.  The weight was to show he's not the battering ram, lean forward and absorb hits with his upper half build.  Hell, the first play of the season we ran him over the left tackle and exposed his bad knee to be dove at from the outside by a DL.  Risking your season by putting your tall QB in a position to constantly have a previously blown out knee hit repeatedly by larger players is on the coaches.

That's fair. You can't ignore his HS numbers tho. Even with the injury. Athletes have came back from that, but I get your point. Not in this type of offense. However, he has been resting for the last two years.

Bill's too close to 200 to leave now.

Man, I keep going back and forth on this.  I definitely think that is going to factor into this.

I look at it like a tripod.  Bill's desire to stay will hinge on three things:

1) How much he wants to stay, or what goal he has for himself (i.e. 200 wins)
2) How much his coaches want to stay, especially the old ones (Del and Hayes are both over 65)
3) How much his continued employment will either hurt or help Sean

I think if any of these things start to really get out of whack with the others, he'll step down.  I don't think Bill wants to face another significant rebuilding job, and I don't think he's going to want to hire anyone else.  I think I read somewhere that we are one of a handful of programs that hasn't had a new coach in three years or so.  I think consistency and predictability is everything to him right now, much like it is for most people his age, whether they want to admit it or not.

If Hayes and Miller elected to leave tomorrow, I think he'd promote from within, but I don't think he wants the dynamic shifted at all.  He may throw his hands up and say that he'd rather go watch little league baseball games and drink coffee with Colbert.

But he wouldn't.  He hates both of those things.

People who are LHC Bill Snyder fans first, K-State fans second, please don't respond.   

For the rest, is there any consideration on the injuries for the fact that we have a lot of guys who really have no business playing D1 P5 conference football out there getting hit by guys who are D1 P5 guys of which many will get looks by the NFL?

I mean, I saw two guys who sketti'd little Kody Cook's shoulder and those were two legit D1 P5 DB's of which one if not both will get drafted in the NFL.

Should we just forfeit the remaining 6 games?

We shouldn't forfeit any games. Thanks for the question.

He politely asked that LHC Bill Snyder first fans not respond, and you did anyway. Shame on you.

[Cire]

Yes, that is part of the problem.

Well, I don't know.  Barnett, McDaniel, Lee, etc are legit. Delton is legit.  Shelley is legit.

It seems like the injuries aren't discriminating between the athletic talent and the five heart guys. I feel like something systemic has to be wrong, but not necessarily the talent when it comes to that particular topic.  Probably our S&C and practice methods if anything.

[CHONGS]

It's probably just random and has very little to do with strength and conditioning.  Every team has injuries, ours only seem worse because we 1) know the team better and 2) didn't recruit well enough to have depth.

In the past it has been discussed that bill goes full contact every practice.  I would imagine, that if he is still doing that, that it has something  to do with the injuries just from lack of recovery  time day to day.

Big 12 rules only allow for two contact practices a week.

Pregame, Stan said we are statistically  last in the conf in overall offense.  Given ku and isu are above us, that is suicide worthy, imo.

I saw an article discussing how Herman was getting on a plane to go recruit after two hours of sleep after a Thursday night game.

Whatever it takes.

Mike Greenberg basically said what we're all thinking about LHOFCBS and Sean Snyder in his talk about Bo Ryan and Wisky.

They're not close to the same thing. If this happened with Bill I bet Dana would become the interim. The Wisconsin assistant was thought to be the leading candidate by people close to that program. People close to the K-State program are still speculating whether or not Sean even wants to be the head coach, and no one at all even bothers to list him as a possibility to replace his dad anymore. Even national guys that don't know crap have moved past Sean.
