Before you all start gnashing teeth, tearing clothes and wearing burlap (read your bible for the reference) here is what has been talked about in ITK circles:

1. There will be at least one coordinator retiring.
2. Jim Levitt is a name widely believed to be filling a spot.
3. People who had attended the ground breaking of the NE corner were openly talking at the WVU game about a gentlemen agreement with Brent Venables already a done deal. No time line. Brent is happy where he's at, what he's making, where his son is playing HS football. He's in no rush, but DOES want to coach the Cats when Bill hangs up the windbreaker.
4. Bill is reportedly on board. Sean will be held over to the new staff doing what he does now. Title may change, may not.
5. Bill is not going anywhere until he hits 200 wins, health willing. He set a goal and damn it he's going to show those youngsters that you don't give up on goals. After he hits 200, he'll actually sit down and map out and exit, not until then.
6. If Bill does leave/die mid season, Currie will only give the interim title to a coach with head coach credentials, like Dimel...or any other coordinator that might (might) come on staff with prior HC experience.

Not a lot to add to this but one important variable change since the post on number 5 regarding " after 200 he'll actually sit down and map out an exit, not until then ".....the sitting down and mapping out has already occurred. Short on details but confirm that there is at least a solid map.

If we kept it for 4 decades from the 50's through the 80s, there's no reason not to think we'll keep it for 7 more years.

My name is Pendergast and I am sad because the head football coach is suffering from dementia and the athletic director is suffering from testicular absentia.

In my opinion things are not very similar now to what they were from the 50's to the 80's.  So personally, I will not use that period of time to provide guidance on how the future of the sport of football at the D1 level and the KSU program will proceed.  However, for completely different reasons I agree that we'll keep our football team for 7 more years.

Definitely not. Not sure if serious but I gave you a serious response, not withstanding.

How is Currie not on board?? This is the big hire he was been waiting for since he got here! Unless Saban or Meyer are ditching their current homes, I am pretty sure we all want BV. Currie appeases the fan base, gets a good coach, and we can begin to start the next era of KSU Football... it makes no sense.

He probably found somebody who had a bad thing to say about BV. That is a deal killer.

The Greater Dallas Courtyard by Marriott was all booked up through this weekend, so he hasn't even been able to think about it yet.

This.

Little twerps like Currie are all about power and influence.  If it came from somebody else, Currie will be against it, even if it was Bill Belichick.

No one who has posted ITT has any inside info regarding KSU footballs coaching situation. Hope that helps.
