I am changing my tune in line with Pete.

The Division One landscape is saying that if you're not doing major facilities projects than you're basically not doing your job as an AD. 

No points for Currie.

I am torn between wanting John Currie to have a good reputation so he can GTFO and wanting him to have his reputation soiled so he never gets a good job anywhere else. I mean, I want him to leave, but also, eff that guy for mushing Pearl and then DG.

I get the Call Bill thing, but you know Bill will give him a good enough of a review to get him out of KSU.

That said, you guys may be right.  I mean, he does have to carry budget flash cards in his pocket at all time since he has troubs remembering a few numbers that he works with daily.

Currie seems like the first AD that realized you can ask people for money more than once every 10 years. That's a big deal at K-State but not anywhere else.

I assume Currie kicked Sean out of the AD, which is why he became a coach, and Bill is pushing Currie out so that he can position Sean back in line for the AD.  :dunno:

Bill hates Currie, and basically wishes Currie was dead.  Common knowledge.

2. the BTF and BSFS facilities finish on time

Currie has hurt his value over the past 12 months.  He won't even get a lateral job.

IF:
1. Bill keeps doing Billthings

and

2. the BTF and BSFS facilities finish on time and are what is expected

and

3. oscar doesn't blow up a year or two earlier than expected

He will be able to point to the huge facilities upgrades, our FB success, and his fundraising success.  Then all he has to do is make up some lies(or truths) about Frank that can't be outright disproven without causing a major stink.  Gotta think that would get him in at some mid level SEC, or other football oriented, school pretty easily.

Any Pres. from the SEC is going to immediately pick up the phone to ask Bill how was he with the football program.  Plus, Frank is IN the SEC now and will absolutely tell everyone about Currie.

I am not a facilities guru but I think a lot of schools are doing upgrading so that isn't such a huge feat.

We shall see but I think JC has done some damage to his rep and there are a TON of guys out there who have not.

Thinking JC will get a better job is nothing more than good ole fashioned KSU butthurt. "oh, we're small, everyone will go somewhere better!" Idiots.

Thinking that a guy like Currie doesn't want a better job and isn't going to do what he can to get a better job could be viewed as idiotic too.  There are plenty of schools out there that have bigger Ath budgets than ours and this is Currie's first AD gig.  For the AD type, isn't the idea to keep moving up in the world?  By moving up, I mean as a career and job responsibility/power thing, not an overall how good is your school at football thing.
