Let me begin by noting that this is not a new idea, others have observed this as well:


I got a 12 page flyer for season tickets in the mail.  It has the word "losses" in it twice, including on the cover.  It does not have the words "coach" "oscar" or "weber" anywhere.

This exacerbates my conspiracy theory of Currie trying to make this Weber's last year.


I am beginning to believe that Currie wants oscar gone.

Currie renegotiated his contract to avoid being tied to team performance...this is the act of a man who knows we will be bad.  Why would he do that? WHAT IF Currie wanted Weber out NOW, but was pressured (the Animal???) to keep Weber in place?  What would he do in that case....would he demand to have team performance removed from conditions for his compensation?  Hmmmmmm.

The parties were different, but we have seen this in the KSU basketball program before.  Tim Weiser tried to fire Wooly, and President Wefald vetoed it, and gave Wooly one additional year.  Could we be seeing that again?

Currie is not stupid.  He must know that Weber is failing.  He is VERY self interested.  If you are both smart and self interested, would you keep oscar Weber if you were the AD?

Also, didn't we figure out that Currie was the one who had Foster and Harris drug tested immediately after their spring break trip?

He's seen how well Brad has done... probably already talking to Brad. ISU probably called Brad and offered him the job and Brad turned it down knowing that he was going to be taking over K-State next year. Just as long as Brad and Curries deal doesn't get FIFA'd then we will be golden!

I want nothing more than to think that our AD is some diabolical evil genius $!#* out to manipulate the world as needed to harm others and make EMAW succeed, however, I feel like this thread needs to stay a little realistic.

When Currie sends Mr. Scrot Whacker to trim the guts out oscar On The Loose recruiting budget, I will believe it.

I want to believe this and it may very well be true, but I also have a friend that has very close ties and involved in the AD and says that this is becoming the norm.  AD's incentives are being more tied to fan attendance rather than team success with the idea that if coaches/teams win, people will show up and if they lose they won't.  Now if the teams win AND no one shows up (i.e. the AD not making money) then they still don't get the incentives.

And getting ISU to interview Brad for cover was a Currie masterstroke. JC's influence knows no bounds.

It's going to be hard to get hired for that next job if your only major sport hire ultimately drives the program into the ground.

Even tucks would have a hard time complaining with bringing in a K-Stater like Brad.

Currie is the guy at your poker table who has no tells. You can't read him. I say he's going to let oscar destroy himself.
