Golly Gee.

[kso_FAN]

Yep. Much better than promotion from within.

[OK_Cat]

absolutely could be worse.  so there's that.

[tdaver]

Just looked at Wally's bio, didn't know/remember he was at Wyoming under Dimel.

No better than Hayes/Joe Bob/GA promotion.

Yeah, if it wasn't better than promoting one of them, then they would have just promoted one of them.

all a part of bill's plan. threaten us with sean, bring in someone else mediocre, then watch as all of k-state nation breathes a sigh of relief.

[BRULL]

i wish we could hire the prince guy with the weird eye.  would take, definitely would take.

Nice. Not sure if already posted, but Purdue just snatched Timmy up.

[wabash909]

Really swung for the fences on this one.  

In the end, not great, not abjectly horrendous.  Just a nice middle of the road, don't rock the boat on the calm waters kind of move.

That's K-State football V2.0.

I'm serious. What makes this better? People generally agree that Hayes did a decent job w/ DB's and has coordinated defenses before. One positive about hiring a GA is it would likely give us a staff member under the age of 40.

I am more saying a Hayes/Joe Bob combo wouldn't be as bad as you think than I am saying the Wallerstedt hire is bad.

Good summation.

He's not a worthless coach we threw an unnecessary AHC title on and gave way more money than he deserved.

kind of surprised that dimel is assembling his staff when he's not even technically head coach yet.

I have no information here, but I'm just wondering if we don't see a Co-DC tag on Wally and Hayes.  Hayes was already passing game coordinator, or something like that, so it would make sense.  Wally would come back here for Co-DC.  He's from Manhattan, full EMAW, and he loved it here for those couple of years (save working for Prince).  I'm just saying that assuming he's the sole DC may be presumptuous.  Snyder usually likes to have Co-Coordinators no matter what.

Are we really thinking there's more than a 5% chance that would even happen?

why wouldn't we? People will want to hire from within when Snyder leaves and Dimel would have to be the top of the heap from that group.

Starting to think there's some smoke to this fire.

it's better because we still have those guys you listed, this guy isn't very old either and, most importantly, this guy has a ton more experience (having some actual middling success at the coaching position we would be hiring him for) than any GA we would promote.  also, we need a LB coach with Cosh's exit and he fills that hole.  it's better.

yes, much higher than that...

It depends on who you mean by "people".  If by most ignorant fans, sure.  However, if "people" means an athletic director, I doubt he gets more than a cursory interview.

People have Google.  They can see the dumpster fire he left for Briles.

You're raining on my parade today, steve dave.

grumblings Wally may have-interviewed/be-interviewing at another BCS school (possibly ASU) and we may get passed over anyway

   michigancat may yet get his dream internal hire
