As much as I liked to think that I could go to games and still support change, I don't know how much more explicitly Kirk can call me a dumbass to my face.  As per usual, you were right.

The idea that the only way to get through to the admin is by not giving or going is crap. Elite programs change the coach as soon as they begin to lose, and don't wait for rock bottom.

Go on a diet!  Keep eating McDonalds!

How do ppl not get the best way to show dissatisfaction and force change is not consuming a product?  You want change, don't buy the product, product experiences losses, and product has to react.  It's a pretty simplistic concept.  Doing otherwise is hoping that our AD holds the same ideas dear that you do, and I am pretty sure it had been demonstrated that this isn't the case.

This. Currie will wait until he absolutely has to and by then the job will be so garbage that he will have to hire another loser that is just happy to be here.

The only way to get through to this administration is by not giving or going.  The day they hired oscar, they demonstrated that they do not think we are an elite program.

A good company may respond to customer outrage and make changes before it can effect the bottom line.  Our administration chooses the flawed philosophy of focusing on the results (attendance) and not the process.  The only thing that ensures is that the results will change.

I couldn't care less about the EMAW thing.  I don't need the administration's stamp of approval on how I fan.
I understand that sentiment.  But I viewed it as a slap in the face to the community he was leading.  We - us - here - the members of goEMAW, personally worked real hard to resurrect that phrase, and when the AD started adopting it and the band was doing it, it was COOL. It allowed us to really share EMAW with the rest of the fanbase.  And then Mendenhall wrote her ridiculous article and then Kirk stepped in.

"Yes, I know I'm new and I know this thing has sort of been a part of your tradition for decades, but apparently you people are too stupid to understand that it's actually sexist so we won't be doing that anymore."

So condescending.  Who the hell is Kirk Schulz and why did he try and take away our thing?

good grief
i'll never stop being butthurt about that. that was all I needed to see of "the animal."

It seriously pissed me off and still pisses me off.  It's far and away my biggest gripe with Schulz.  And I have several!

Elite programs change the coach as soon as they begin to lose

Elite programs tend to keep their great coaches forever and don't really ever begin to lose. When they do, though, there are counterexamples to this like Crean at Indiana and Howland at UCLA.

Our bball team is Iowa state fball. Weber is rhoads. He'll eventually lose his job but it will take twice as long as it should have because our fans continue to show up and support. Meanwhile, every other school is just looking at us, shaking their head and laughing amongst each other.

that tweet is amazing.  it's gotten a lot of attention, but it hasn't gotten enough attention, imo.


and didn't someone claim that schulz had given over his twitter account to someone to tweet for him?  wtf?

i guess that was an email that the recipient tweeted, so i retract my wtf.  good job by schulz of taking the time to dismiss kstate fan opinions one by one now that he can no longer do it en masse.

He's effectively saying "we're going to wait until our customers prove to us our expired milk is bad by waiting until they buy a couple bad jugs and decide not to return before we change the jugs on the shelf."

This is failing at business 101 stuff here.

This thing is a mess and disappointing.

But I agree that the current drama, etc. from many of us is over the top as well. Me included.
