next year the smoke will blow away from the mirrors and there will be no way people will accept Sean under any circumstances.

Hate to say it, but it's true.

If you just keep saying this before every season eventually you will likely be right and then you can strut around and tell everyone "SEE, I WAS RIGHT! I TOLD YOU SO!" This plan has "winner" written all over it.

I think K-State and the Chiefs are going after the same guy for DC.

The real question is who will outlast who.

Because if Currie is still in place at the time of Snyder's second retirement, I have no doubt whatsoever in my belief that he will make his own hire. Does anyone really think he's not absolutely salivating for the opportunity? For a ladder climber like Currie, hiring his own guy is one of the biggest moves he can make for his resume and he is not going to sit around and let Sean Snyder run the ship aground.

My only concern is how long he'll be here. If Snyder plays the game, Currie departs and another yes man like Tim Weiser takes the job, this is how Sean Snyder takes the reigns.

To believe this you would have to believe that UPKS would fail misearably in his hiring of a DC. I have more faith in him than that. Any DC with any confidence in himself will make his OWN hire, even if it's completely shitty and stupid....several newly hired AD's have proven this to be true.

This is great. Unsubstantiated of course, but great.

Fitz Post Backs up the wispers I have heard Reply
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.

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.

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.

I take solace in the belief that in order for Bill to gain the amount of juice he needs to force Sean in, he will have to win us at least a Big 12 champy and/or a BCS game. Only then will the waters be calm enough to pass the reigns to his unproven son.

If he does this, I will dislike it but accept it for awhile.

I didn't say it before this season.

Even that you hint Currie might be more qualified to name a successor than Snyder is alarming.

If someone told me we would drop off a bit until Snyder retired, but was guaranteed a highly successful replacement, I would easily take it.

So should I share information or not? I was under the impression that you folks paid for that kind of stuff. If you're just paying for the sheer awesome entertainment of the ostgame meltdowns, then I'll just sit back and watch the show too.

michigancat gets his dream Hayes/JoeBob promotion hire

Meanwhile, we need to find a GA that knows about LBs. Unfortunately, my direct interactions with former KSU LBs have shown that they are either complete dumbasses, likely to kill themselves or both.

So what we are learning is that Snyder thinks he has enough juice right now, after 10-3, to shove whoever he can scrape up down our throats as they prep for Sean to take over. As stated, I'd think he'd go after some real talent pretty hard at this moment in time to try and take the next step when then he would have the best chance to hand it to Sean. Promoting some old guys who cannot win a head-to-head recruiting battle sets it up for a .500 season and no chance of Sean getting a look.

I guess his plan is ahead of schedule. Kudos Bill.
