John Currie's ego, strange ways, cloistered inner circle, ultra micro management and personal agenda are wrecking K-State athletics.   It's time for him to move on.

If we didn't need him for the hoops team, Weber could be his replacement.

Its evident John Currie can get stuff built.  So, let's hire an AD for personnel only and leave Currie as facilities AD to build stuff.  Because Currie sucks with personnel decisions.

No, all Currie knows how to do is design slick pamphlets that ask people for money.  They main reason people responded to those pamphlets is because of the incredible success of our 2011/2012 football teams.  Of course, Currie deserves no credit for that success at all.

I knew all I needed to know about Currie when he and our tweeting Prez couldn't get us in a BCS bowl in 2011.  This was confirmed when they hired oscar Weber.  Both just dorks(Schultz)/dweebs(Currie) who have no business at a cool place like KSU.

No coach will work here until they are allowed to do what P5 coaches need to do to recruit and manage their players/team.

Bingo. A major reason Currie hired Weber is because Weber can't manage players (Foster, to some extent Angel). So Weber doesn't push back in this area at all. It's actually good personal risk management by Currie, just detrimental to K-State.

You can't have the ego Currie has a as leader and your organization be successful. If have to hire people who are smarter than you and better at you for what you hire them to do, then let them do it while giving them whatever resource they need to do it. Currie is great at fund raising, I'll give him that, but he is ignorant of the fact he has no knowledge of how to run a sports program.

Currie had all kinds of basketball coaching moves he could have made this off season: Underwood, Henson, Gottlieb, Jankovich, and the list goes on. All guys who could put together a decent staff and recruit. But, I doubt any of them would have said yes to working under Currie. It's also completely ridiculous that K-State administration would value anything that has anything to do with Keady.

Jankovich's resume is a mixed bag admittedly, but I like him personally and would be thrilled to have him here given the current situation.  That said, there is no way he's coming.  He gets $800,000 as an assistant and is coach in waiting to take over SMU.  He wouldn't leave there for the money they will pay him and the program that is built there for the situation at K-State.

We should hire Gottlieb and then trade him and Wade for Brad. Everybody wins!

I don't really want Jank either, but a good AD would have his people call Janks people. Currie didn't even pick up a phone this off season.

This post was 100% serious,  I just want people to let that sink in. This is what our program has come to.

Currie doesn't do phones.  He does telegraphs to keady and hotel rooms with his friend, who charges huge fees to tell him to do what gene says.

Any lawyers on here know if John Currie bound by HIPAA? Or is he free to divulge student athlete injury information to any booster he wants? Please PM me if the former.

I was being serious about liking Jank personally, thinking his resume is shaky and also thinking he would be an ok hire given the current circumstances.  It would be very Kroger-brand Underwood.
