ADJC thought he'd be gone by now, and now he's in a pickle. 

He's got a trajectory crisis with his only major hire and he's got two more starting with football and baseball. 

To make matters worse for himself he's crapped all over the succession attempts of the HOF FB coach he's not on speaking terms with.

I'd be interested in hearing more about this, even though it might be painful.

There's a nice cautionary tale about karma here, I'm sure.

Would be interesting to learn more about this, if true.

not on speaking terms may be an exaggeration, but snyder doesn't like him at all.

I suspect part of the disagreement is over the idea of "boss."

What disagreement?

I have a hunch that Bill might disagree that Currie is his "boss," and that might lead to whatever it is (disagreements) that gets widely rumored to be their "rift" or whatever.

ah yeah i'm sure there's some of that.  i mean, no one is a 76 year old's boss, in reality.  i'm sure ADJC understands that too but he has a job to do just like bill.

might also be that Bill has been the face of the university for 25 years and his salary is triple JC's.  prob also doesn't hurt that Bill's relationships with the BOR and state legislature guarantee him almost unqualified immunity in his employment.

most ADs make less than the coaches they hire and fire.  LHC Bill Snyder has his name on the stadium and a statue, no need to make facile arguments about pay scale to know Bill's position at K-State is secure.

Quote from: ADJC
From an athletics performance perspective, under the leadership of our tremendous group of head coaches, his tenure has seen arguably one of the greatest across-the-board 7-year periods in school history which has included Big 12 Conference championships in football, men’s basketball and baseball, eight individual NCAA titles in track and field, six straight bowl trips, five men’s basketball NCAA Tournament appearances, three in women’s basketball and four each in volleyball and baseball.

But no mention of congratulating KState alum and former KSU assistant coach Brad Underwood on his recent NCAA hire. :surprised:

The way that email was written it seemed as if Currie was trying to convince whoever the new Prez is that he should keep his job. Very high on his AD's accomplishments towards the end.
