The fiasco with Frank followed by hiring Weber is clearly the knock on Currie right now.

he should be fired (should have been fired) on the spot for martin. i don't think weber was a poor hire, given the circumstances. like, 9 out of 10 hires he could have made would have been worse.

They seem certain his fundraising injury will heal RT @Jake_Trotter: K-State has signed AD John Currie to a contract extension through 2019.

Grats John, with this type of job security and vote of confidence from The Animal you can really grab the moment, give Weber a Franking, hire Doug or Pearl and we can all agree you deserve an extra $100k.

Also, you will likely be making our next football coaching decision. Do NOT male genitals up the next football hire the way you cocked up the basketball hire.

No. He has a wrist injury/repetitive injury thing on his check signing hand. I asked him what happened and he called it a fundraising injury. Take that for what it is worth.

Not going to get into the Currie debate, but would someone please go tell the Wabash Tucks in the Currie thread that the K-State athletic department is absolutely NOT counting money given specifically towards capital projects as operating revenue.

In FY 2013 if K-State HAD counted money given towards WSC/BTF as well as the cash proceeds from donated securities, than K-State's operating revenue would have been reported as $20 million dollars higher than it was.

Welp

The Animal (doesn't give a crap about winning)

goes all in on John Currie (doesn't give a crap about winning).

EMAWmeister · « **Reply #141 on:** December 20, 2013, 11:56:52 AM »

Do people really not think that Currie had a clause in his contract that we would automatically extend him if he hit certain goals?

who cares about 2019 and 100K? not me.

I almost did, but I don't really know what the hell I'm talking about when it comes to that kind of stuff. Seemed like a really dumb post though.

I found his original contract. In it, anytime a head coach got a performance based bonus Currie also got a bonus that's 75% of the HC's bonus. He could earn total bonuses up to 75% on his base pay per year.

So hiring a super custardy coach has a direct effect on his salary...

I bet John maxed that out last yr.

scottwildcat · « **Reply #148 on:** December 20, 2013, 05:07:55 PM »

WGAF about this? I say give him another 100k a year the second the NEZ project breaks ground.

Don't look now but John Currie is the 2nd highest paid public employee in the state of Kansas.
