Quote from: Chingon on January 18, 2016, 01:46:15 PMThe BV stuff is all nonsense. It provides the smokescreen needed to force feed us a mediocre HCIW in Leavitt.Then it's a well coordinated smokescreen, and you'll have an AD who has basically built his career on finding capital to build stuff actively burning bridges with the folks most likely and able to provide him with said capital.Enough people believe it's going to happen where it's safe to say something is happening. Either conversations, or a handshake, or whatever, but Currie and Venables are talking or have talked. JL may be plan B, so it may happen, but Currie isn't stupid enough to alienate the most important part of his constituency for some ruse that leads to the hiring of a 60 year old to take over his football program.

He'll look like a hero.

He'll look like a hero.If the donors are all going around saying they're getting Venables, and they want Venables, and you're telling them you have a deal with Venables, you'll be a hero by giving them Jim Leavitt?That makes complete sense.
our fanbase loves the-coach/recruit-that-got-away stories. probably most fanbases do.i agree that kstate fans will give more credit to an a.d. that they think had a sexy hire lined up until some perfidious rival stole him or some fickle female in his life refused to let him take the job than they would an a.d. that locked down a slth right out of the gate.
Is Blackcats like, really ITK? Just asking, as I don't know who I can trust

The other night I was drinking with a friend and some of his coworkers (i hadn't met any of them before). This guy and I talked Purdue football for about 15 minutes. He was at the holy buckeye game!
