I mean our revenues have increased dramatically through tv deals and such, and coaches salaries at K-State have remained relatively the same. I mean freaking Iowa State was able to build onto their stadium. Has he done a good job with money, sure. But your main job is winning at basketball and football, something he has failed at 50% rate.I know! Clearly no influence from Currie. Look how KU has parlayed all that extra cash into new fac...oh wait.I agree. Currie is total trash. Get him out of here!Never said he was trash, just saying we give him too much credit for building stuff. Most competent schools around the country are building stuff. Comparing ourselves to a school that currently has 30 game road losing streak and is still paying a coach 2.5 mil a year to not coach there seems below us.The point is KU is making the same $ from those contracts (maybe more with T3 rights for basketball but ). They're paying a former coach, but their current coach makes squat for a D1 HC. If the TV contracts and Big 12 revenue were the main drivers, then KU wouldn't be so woefully behind us right now.Plus, we're not just talking about shiny new things. K-State has built this stuff while staying near the top of the lists for profitable athletic departments. Not many schools in the country can say the same.

He's going to have a hard time hiring a football or basketball coach that has comparable options, so the things he's done that have made it that way are pretty bad.I guess I do not understand your response, please elaborate, Trim.LHC LHC Bill Snyder and Frank Martin have giant threads on goCOACH.com about what a piece of crap he is and to avoid working for him.

It was executed well. Pollard continuing to employ that clown show is ridiculous. I get incredibly annoyed with the basketball board's continued obsession with Currie not firing Weber if he has a bad season just so he won't have to admit a mistake but then I look at this crap show in Ames and I have to eat it. Pollard gave Rhoads a 10 year extension when he was 17-20 and in the four years following it has gotten worse each year. They have never had more than 3 conference wins, they haven't finished above .500 since year two and even then it was a whole 1 game over. He is in year 7 and he is in a must win with a team that is projected to go 0-12. Unmitigated disaster and exactly what kstate basketball fans are afraid of.Well Currie has yet to do anything that bad. Yes, Weber is bad, but not Paul Rhodes bad (yet). Unless Weber can have a solid winning season this year, he's probably gone, so we do not need to worry about a 10 yr extension for him.

I would say that's pretty bad.

He's done a lot of good things for us and I think the good oit weighs the bad. He's also the only thing standing between hiring sean and not hiring sean. Because you know Bill will want an AD that will bend to his every wish and the University will give him that.

That tweet would make my day if I were a Cyclone fan. It would be like that time Marquette showed interest in oscar.
The receipts reported on Monday are eye-popping, everything from 91 shots of tequila on one tab (for a big crowd, but still) to another that included eight shots and five beers for Sarkisian and three assistants that were all consumed before 11:53 a.m.
