Venables's edge comes from starting life as an underdog. He was the youngest of three boys, which he jokes left him facing "social Darwinism" every day.

Belongs in Kansas.

how come no one gave PJ a job when like 25 jobs came open?  Is he holding out for one of the elite jobs?

Reading between the lines, it's pretty obvious he's ours.

The key piece for those who don't want to read it:

Quote
When Venables left Kansas State to join Stoops at Oklahoma for the 1999 season, he heard criticism, especially after Kansas State lost the 1998 Big 12 title game in double overtime to Texas A&M. It still bothers him and he promised to never replicate that feeling. "I always felt very disappointed that people associated me with looking at another job while I had a job and that affected my job," he says. "I know it didn't in my heart of hearts. I live with that still. [People saying] there was a lack of loyalty or whatever."

FWIW, I choose to believe this.  It doesn't mean he's coming, but I believe he believes this, and I believe Bill would be on the same page on this matter.

Bill is probably being all self righteous about it too.  "see, you don't HAVE to take coaches in the middle of a title run, they can come later."

Just to prove everyone wrong.

Srsly given up on the BV dream and settled on the assumption that the same gang will be back next year.  Truly the K-State way.

I'm going to love having Ron Prince 2.0 in a couple of years while Patterson and Venables are still out there kicking major ass.

To be honest, what I've heard was that BV would come after Bill retires. The HCIW thing is new. Both have pros and cons.

I'm not gonna get bent out of shape if he doesn't come this year. I didn't expect him to based on what I was told. That rumor was just a pleasant surprise.

Guys come on, deflecting overall lack of success with constant repetition of marketing slogans and mission statements is vastly more interesting then this fantasy land nonsense.   

BTW John Currie is set to announce the installation of the finest vanilla soft serve machines on the market in every concession stand.  This will allow easier access to a tasty item that matches KState athletics current trajectory.

Ron did inspire some of the greatest K-State art ever.

Would take... :party:

I actually believe Currie would like nothing more than to hire BV this year. He's spent nearly $200M on spiffing up BSFS, and on an accelerated timeline to boot, to attract a high level or prospective high level HC. The last thing he wants to do is an annual "maybe I will maybe I won't" retirement dance with the Legend.

Doing so risks the faculty upgrade advantage we currently have against a good number of schools. Unfortunately, it appears this is a three not a two person negotiation process, making it much more complex and improbable you can find something that works for everyone.

If indeed the status quo is maintained next year, we will likely see another retirement exit that will have been poorly done and  sub-optimized.

Currie would hire BV.  His search firm buddy will be super mad he can't get $75k for recommending the 5th best guy on their board.

Yeah, but the super slueth recruiting firm will keep the retainer and get a new tombstone lucite for the conference room. They'll call it a win and wait for the next JC call.

I heard the same presser Kelliis did and there was nothing different said than what Bill's been saying the last six weeks. Has no newi plans for the future but will sit down with his family after the season and evaluate at that point. May be back but there's still a small hedge there.

Kellis certainly wouldn't be the guy Bill would let break this story.

What tits!?  Doesn't matter, he'll just snort lines off the cheeks of her ass.  It shouldn't bother him, since his olfactory glands are fried.
