I'm just horribly disappointed that the Cats had a shot to win the conference and didn't pull it off.  This type of season should instill a hunger for greater success and not a feeling of accomplishment.  Whether valid or not, I get the feeling that most fans and staff are content with how things ended up.  Just my opinion.

Why can't you have the feeling of both? You can still have some clear disappointments yet still feel you accomplished quite a bit at the same time. I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. JMHO.

Yeah. You can be disappointed in the results and acknowledge mistakes were made and at the same time not want anyone fired or anything like that. Do you want someone fired, XocolateThundarr?

It's a program philosophy that won't get fixed with firing someone.

Surely firing Snyder would change "program philosophy", wouldn't it? Should we fire Snyder? Or just tell him to change his philosophy?

i don't think anyone directly involved with the program is 'satisfied' with 9-3.

Mr Touchdown!  He's from Iwoa; what else do we need to know.

Our last 4 years have been better than Nebraska under Bo, by just about any measure. Should KSU fire Snyder?

I don't think their is a single position returning on offense that I don't think needs to be vastly improve. I don't think their are any sure-fire pieces being added. Like what in the hell would be our strength.

We're tossing the ball with Jake, so why not continue with the touchdown kid.  He broke HS records for touchdowns and passing in Iowa.

Did I compare the last four years here to Nebraska or at any point disparage the last four years? I don't even know why the eff you're asking me that. If we had two or three more years of 8 or 9 years with no sign of improvement and Snyder wasn't 473 years old, yep I'd want him fired.

I'm asking you if you'd fire Snyder, because if you aren't willing to fire him, you must be complacent and OK with the results.

I answered the question didn't I? Not only that but I addressed that specific point more than once when I said Snyder's age and pending retirement makes this a non issue. Go ahead and ask me five more times.

OU and should fire stoops at that rate, MIR.

I've had a very specific qualifier in nearly every single post in this topic that excludes Stoops, I'm not going to type it again. You guys are seeing what you want to see and pitching a fit without understanding the full point. At no point in this thread did I ever say going 9-3 is a problem. That being said Bob Stoops will not be allowed to have 3 or 4 consecutive seasons like this one.

9-3 just doesn't mean much when you don't beat any good teams to get there like Nebraska. I guess you could say that about our season this year, but OU is pretty good at home.

I'm honestly not worried at all about next season. We will have 3 gimmes nonconference, plus easy wins over ISU, KU, and Tech to get bowl eligible at worst. The ceiling next year is 8 or 9 wins, which should be pretty good to build on for Bill's last run in 2016 (assuming he doesn't decide to quit after this year).

Only really one disappointing game and that was the Auburn game. 

We were TCU's Super Bowl.

The Baylor game was disappointing only because they gave us a window to make that game a nail biter and the Dimel-Miller duo said no thanks.
