why do ex-kansas staters hate us? (Venables, Patterson, etc..)

Being EMAW is fun. No one wants to spoil the fun by making it into work.

Seriously doubt if K-State would pay the money it would take to get Venables. Insiders say Jim Leavitt is a more likely hire for Snyder.

Our pay scale for our assistant staff is apparently the lowest in the Big XII. At some point this mentality by Snyder is going to have to change.

We're either going to have to get competitive in that respect, or we're simply not going to compete in a territory that would attract a top level assistant to join that staff with the potential to vie for the head coaching position.

Who determines the “budget” for fb salaries? I’m assuming it’s currie and then bill allocates accordingly? I mean, we ended up paying ‘te 450K. Of course that was not originate during Currie’s tenure. I’m sure john would have vetoed ‘te making that much if Frank wanted him now.

It has to be in tandem.

I don't buy that the money isn't there. Currie has elevated the overall athletic budget by close to $7 million annually since he took over. He's shown the propensity to invest in import things like facilities and improvements that affect the fan experience. He's smart. He knows the price to compete for a BCS level program.

If you take that into account, there's actually a high probability that Snyder is setting his own pay scale for his staff.

I am not ITK on this but I'd bet Bill and Currie collaborate a bit. Like, Bill gives him the name of his staff and w2hen Currie learns the staff consists of a guy who was managing a Tanners, a guy who got ran out at Maryland and his son Currie decides that the budget doesn't need to be as high as other schools because he is competing with, respectively, Nick & Jakes, no one, Sharon paying for odd jobs around the house.

Why break the bank? We aren't stupid like ku who thinks if you pay someone like a big time coach they will become one.

My watering hole

Which one?

135th and Metcalf..

Classic spot. Let me know when you want LSOC and his crew of elites to do a guest appearance.

I can appreciate Snyder not wanting to spend other peoples money. But sometimes those kinds of decisions, and the lack of flexibility cause more of "other peoples money" to have to be spent down the line. In addition a lot of "other peoples money" was and is being asked for already (donations, season tickets, Ahearn Fund, fund raisers, etc. etc. etc. etc.) with the expectation that K-State field a good to very good football team. Part of that process is having good facilities. K-State has good facilities, but with more flexibility, and an ability to look a little farther down the line, K-State could have had great (not just good) player facilities already, and would NOT have to be looking at a "New Vanier" 6-7-8 years from now, that may very well cost a lot more money.

This is not hard.

we need to devise a plan on how we're going to excommunicate venables from the "purple nation" when he rebukes our advances this final time.

seems like a good job for pete.
