Think about it, Kansas. Because the second-best fit after an improbable but smart reunion in Lawrence is Mangino taking over for his mentor in Manhattan.

Once LHC Bill Snyder believes he's found the right man for the job, it would make sense the transition to begin.

LHC Bill Snyder is a very, very smart man. His Kansas State team is 6-0 because Snyder understands sustained excellence in a way few do. If he hasn't already looked long and hard at Mangino as his replacement, odds are he will soon enough.

WOULD TAKE

Yeah, the squawk beatdowns would be epic if we got the big guy here

Can't wait for my _Fan "our coach is phat" shirt.

Would be interesting to see where he goes with his "I helped build this place, now I'm gonna tear it down" quote.

"storm"nut · « **Reply #5 on:** October 20, 2011, 01:28:49 PM »

would be worth it just to have _Fan make one of these shirts in purple.

Yeah, but the perennial 6-6 seasons would not be epic.

All we got with Snyder is, "Our coach will die before your coach"

jtksu · « **Reply #10 on:** October 20, 2011, 01:32:46 PM »

We could still wear those shirts if we hired Mangino.

Totally unrelated to this...

A friend of mine (that's a KU grad) at work knows all kinds of athletes at KU. I don't know how, but he does. Anyway, he texts me last night and says, "I have it on good authority KSU is seriously considering hiring Mangino. Thoughts?"

I ask him about it this morning, and he says, "I just heard from my friend, a former KU player, that KSU is having very real discussions about hiring Mangino." I then kind of blow it off, and he says, "Do you know who Mike Smith is?" I say, "Yeah, he's our WR coach." The then says, "My friend talked to him, and Mike Smith said there's a very real chance Mangino will be on the KSU sideline next season."

So, yeah, take it for what it's worth.

If Snyder were looking for his replacement, Jim Leavitt would already be on our staff instead of kicking ass with the 49ers.

If Mangino comes back it's not as HCIW.

I could def see him adding mangino back to staff, but I couldn't seeing Mangino taking over.

do not want.

If Jim Leavitt didn't want to kick ass in the NFL with the 49ers he would have came here.

My thought when he told me was that Bill would try to use Mangino to help prop up Sean.

Johnny Wichita · « **Reply #21 on:** October 20, 2011, 01:44:42 PM »

I love how everyone that writes an article about Mangino fails to mention he went 1-7 in conference his final year.

Just think about the KU quotes he would have if on our staff.

Also, Mangino doesn't strike me as a guy who would be used to prop anyone up. Don't think he would be ok with being a bad ass O coord and AHC while letting someone's Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) offspring take credit.
