I don't care if the [redacted] is orange as long as he can coach.

Great post qatz.

People seem to still think it takes years (like more than five) to rebuild a program, and it doesn't. The Ron Prince experience really didn't hurt us all that much, and I say we go for something similar again.

We won't, but it would be great.

Can we get back to what a great hire Malzahn would be?

Imagine Dimel as his O.C. with Dickey retained to run the line.

Could somebody make a comprehensive list of minority groups and whether a respective member head coach has ever won a BCS bowl? It'd be good to have some predetermined parameters here before we go too far down this coaching search road.

I could be pro malzahn, so long as divorces and or muzzles his wife in the mean time. I could be pro anyone who was successful somewhere, anywhere.

I am also squarely in the camp of who ever is hired should be hired with the stipulation that Dickey stays.

I don't think any Indians have ever pulled it off.

We are going to win a national championship and then we are going to get Sean Snyder.

And we are going to like it.

Dimel and Malzahn are the only tier 1 hires. Would be ecstatic with either.

Malzahn's wife is evidently a lunatic, so that could be fun too.

If winning a NC means suffering under Sean Snyder for 5 years, I'll take it.

Dimel isn't staying on if we hire Malzahn. I'd also rather have Dimel than Malzahn.

Obviously. If that albino pigment doesn't ooze success, I don't know what does.

Steve Dave, I've appreciated your insight on many matters pertaining to K-State football over the years but I must disagree with you
regarding your stance that Dimel is a far better choice than Leavitt. Don't get me wrong, I think Dimel is a quality coach but look at the success that Leavitt had as a head coach at South Florida coupled with his coordinator duties for us in the 90s and currently with the 49ers. Dimel simply couldn't get things going during his time at Houston. I think Dimel would better serve as Leavitt's offensive coordinator.

michigancat · « **Reply #98 on:** October 24, 2012, 02:47:25 PM »

leavitt couldn't get things done at South Florida. He got fired, too. Just like Dimel.

Snydercat34 · « **Reply #99 on:** October 24, 2012, 09:05:46 PM »

No, it wasn't just like Dimel! Dimel only managed eight wins in three seasons at Houston. Leavitt, who was 95-57 at South Florida, lost his job because of allegations that he had struck one of his players. Leavitt won eight games the first season South Florida was promoted to a D-1 status. He built South Florida out of literally nothing, for he was the program's first head coach. By his 9th/10th season, I forget which, he had South Florida ranked in the top ten in the country at one point. If I'm not mistaken he had South Florida ranked number 2 in the BCS, just behind Ohio State. If you check the facts Dimel can't hold a candle to Leavitt. Go 'Cats!
