K-State DC Thread

[Dugout DickStone]

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

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

yes, much higher than that...

I'd bet closer to 50%

Sounds like we could have had our HR hire but JC called and bunt with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th behind by 1 run. FYJC

I really hate the riddles, guys.

If what you're saying is that Currie nixed the hire of Leavitt because we wouldn't hire him as HCIW, then Currie deserves a six figure raise.

yes, that would have been a good move by currie if he had made it

If someone is saying Currie nixed Venables, he should be fired.

I'm going to keep guessing until someone tells me whether I'm right or wrong.

It looks as if Leavitt's push to return to Manhattan was rebuffed. I'm not sure at what level, but I am confident he wanted to return. That brings us to reports that the next DC is going to be Matt Wallerstedt. That appears to be premature. It seems to be down to Wallerstedt and Tom Hayes, but Wally might have another DC offer from a BCS school. Don't be surprised if the defensive coordinator spot is filled with an internal hire. I will let you know more when I get more info.

Thanks for reading Fitz.

Why would Leavitt want to come back?  Seriously?  He wasn't going to be the head coach here, so what's the point?

the question is who in the eff is rebuffing him?

[wabash909]

This is great.  Unsubstantiated of course, but great.

Not much info is coming out of the coaching search but I have talked to a few people that know a little. A coach at a different school said he is hearing that LHCBS really wants Sean to take over so he does not want to hire anyone that may get in the way of that plan. I have also heard from someone else that Currie is well aware of this and has said that if LHCBS does step down, he will be one making the hire. That said Levitt did have some interest but does not want to be tied down incase something comes up before Coach retires. Sounds like he wants the head job or to stay where he is for now. (doesn't want any HCIW titles)

I have a bad feeling that a power struggle in the future may happen. I have not heard of any friction between Currie and Coach so that is not what I am trying to say, only that Coach has a plan and our AD has a plan. Not sure they are same plan and to tell you the truth Sean taking over scares the crap out of me.

An occasional nugget falls my way every once in a while, but this is in line with what I heard.

[CNS]

The real question is why do I even still care?

I mean, JFC Bill...

Bill is gonna treat this like his own personal game of The Apprentice, only no one gets fired.

We all know it and yet it still makes me mad.

[CNS]

We would be better off trying to patch things up with Prince than hiring Sean. 

I mean, we could always fire Ron.  If bill has the pull to get Sean in the door, does anyone actually think he doesn't have the pull to keep him there?

[steve dave]

Currie isn't going to let Bill dictate crap.  I can assure you of that.  

[kso_FAN]

Come on Bill.

You won 10 games.

A lot of people came on board back to liking you again.

Even thinking (again) that you are a football savant.

Why do this?

Why?

It's just a different version of what we have been saying for over a year.  Even before Sean was promoted the core ITK'ers on here reported Snyder has designs that Sean will someday be head coach for KSU.  To extrapolate that Leavitt has no interest in stepping in that pile of cow flop doesn't take much.

[Panjandrum]

Currie isn't going to let Bill dictate crap.  I can assure you of that.  

It's a Mexican standoff, but the question is who will be here longer?  Bill or John?

I'm not comfortable answering that question.

[CNS]

And, its not just Leavitt that won't step in that crap, it's anyone with other options and a brain.

[kso_FAN]

I'm going with "Cats in the Cradle" guilt.

I mean Bill knows football. Like really knows it. And still knows it well enough to win.

He's got to know that his son is not a head coach. Coordinating special teams has been a stretch.

Bill. Please.

True, but I'm just saying that I have heard the same thing, and I obviously have a different channel than you do.  So, I'm confirming your ITK'ers.

Guys, a rape enabler dies this week and the world forgets flaws and dictates his sainthood to all that will listen.  Bill's plan is to die in office.  Tucks will do the same for him and currie will not be able to mexican stand off against the tuck memory of a recently passed LHC Bill Snyder.  

[ew2x4]

I hate him.
