john currie's big mistake

[Katpappy]

i mean, not hiring him is fine or whatever 
Rick, we're either all in or nothing.

i'm just saying that if john currie chooses not to hire him now then every single person alive will know it's because he felt like he was pressured by his fan base to do so. i mean, alone and on it's own merits then currie would obviously hire him. how could he not? basically what i'm saying is that i'm pretty sure that john currie is not that small of a person that he would let a little bit of "who thought of it first" get in the way of a homerun hire. prove me right john.

I think he really loves his list.  May be hard to convince.

Can't second guess yourself. We go as hard as possible for gottlieb and what happens happens.

What is his list, though?  No one really knows outside of Tad Boyle.

It's not Jankovich; he's not that stupid.  It's not Henson.  It's not Eustachy.

Currie may have a list, but no one knows who's actually on it.

isnt tad boyle out of the running?

[steve dave]

A) rake, you are the best. 
B) don't be a dumbass, he leaked that he was talking to tad and had tad call into kc radio to rally tad loser support.
C) currie has one opportunity to save his job/career.  ONE.  if he doesn't take it I will make it mine (and my minions) goal to end his jittery career.

[steve dave]

yes, swish, tad is out of the running.  tell the kstate losers that.  he better rough ridin' be...

My only hope at this point is JC reads goEMAW.

Currie may have a list, but no one knows who's actually on it.

but we're all in agreement that he isn't so petty that he'd let a bunch of vocal kstate super fans get in the way of making the perfect (gottleib) hire. right? i mean he'll obviously do what is best for the university and it's fans and players and go through with the gottleib hire right? i believe he will. i believe in john currie to do the right thing.

[swish1]

what about the fact that john currie is too proud to hire a guy the fan base is trying to force him into hiring???

[steve dave]

John Curris isn't wanting to end his career is he? hiring Doug Gottlieb would save it. Anything less would end it on the spot.  There would be riots.  he is reading this thread.  he knows.  he can be a hero.

Hopefully, he gets with Gottleib and interviews him.  That all I ask.  Currie, keep your list in your back pocket.  Talk to Doug, PLEASE.

what about the fact that john currie is too proud to hire a guy the fan base is trying to force him into hiring???

he's not that petty swish. he can't be. he just can't be. everybody would see through it. i have faith that he'll make the right call and the right hire. no way that he'll act like a seven year old and act irrationally and out of spite. he's way to polished and loves kansas state university way to much for that. right?

I DON'T WANT A rough ridin' INTERVIEW, I WANT A HIRE.

in my experience supervisors dont want to be told what to do by the smarter people that work for them, in this case currie doesnt want to be told what to do by the people who donate money to kstate...

I believe John Currie realizes he's one of the least popular people in Manhattan right now, and his boss probably doesn't want a full scale revolt right after they hire a basketball coach.

National perception of Currie is that he ran off one of the rock stars of college basketball (rightly or wrongly).  Now he's getting Twitter bombed by fans wanting a TV analyst to fill the head coaching position because all of the names that have leaked thus far have royally sucked.

Now he's going to have people sitting outside of Bramlage, cooking kosher hot dogs, on a Saturday in support of said TV analyst.

If he ends up hiring some mid-major loser like Scott Sutton, the reaction on Twitter is going to be awful.  He's got two or three more days of full scale social media fire coming right at him focused on one guy.  If he doesn't go with that guy...

[KCFDcat]

is it possible that currie wont hire gottlieb simply because he doesnt want his future employers to think he can be bullied into a hire by the fans?

 

i thought about this yesterday. is it too late to make him think that it was his idea?

Have any of you guys seen Inception?

he's bigger than that though right? i mean, i have to assume that he isn't some weirdo vindictive petty son of a bitch that would eff his entire fanbase over (twice) just so the hire could be "his". i mean what kind of ego driven self serving bad person son of a bitch would hate the fans of the school that employs him that much to exact revenge in such a way? no. no way. he won't do this to us and to the school that employs him.

i get it.  i understand what you are doing.  but i disagree, currie is that kind of guy, and he doesnt give two shits about what Kstate fans want...

maybe boyle ended up with colder feet than currie could have ever dreamed, after taking a surprise tourney bid home from the pac 12 tournament.  maybe currie ended up crap creek without a paddle or a boyle and didn't have any ideas left over.  maybe gottlieb's sudden eloquence was a godsend to a desperate young a.d. strung out on redneck caffeine.  maybe gottlieb was godsent to unite a fanbase and an athletic director with a 101 reasons to hate each other and just one reason to tolerate one another for a few more precious seasons.
