What if it's LHC Bill Snyder but with a fake nose + glasses + moustache combo?

More idle speculation: We’ve heard, credibly, that the team was told they’d have a name within two weeks. We’ve also been told on several fronts that we’re getting close to being finished with the search.

If it was Klieman, it seems odd that we’d hear that announcement in the middle of FCS playoffs.

But today’s the team awards banquet (see Twitter ongoing). Dunno if ADGT is there, but if you’ve got an internal or person that’d already be at that event, that’s where I’d drop the news.

Just sayin’

Would be extremely disappointed in ADGT if he read this board.

He’s not reading this board. Are you serious? He does although check his KSTATE sports email. Also you would be crazy not to think that they aren’t gauaging fan feedback on potential hires. Do you know how many construction loans they have put right now?? They don’t sell tickets or receive donations. It will not be good

They will sell tickets and receive donations if the team is winning. Unless GT is a complete dumbass, his decision should be focused entirely on hiring the guy with the best chance of winning, regardless of what the fans and donors think. The only difference is that fans will give an unpopular candidate a much shorter timespan to start winning until they call for the AD’s head.

Wouldn’t it be fun if it wasn’t any of those three dorks?

I kinda want CK now.

You’re probably (82% sure) going to have to get over that.


82%. 82. Hmm.

Yep.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

I’m not sure how anyone can come in and coach the 2 stars and walkons that our team currently consists of and win in the near term.   It’s going to be a full rebuild.

I'd rather have Norvell or Brown than Klieman, but I'm starting to question it. I'm easily swayed by compelling arguments. I'd make a terrible AD, as would like 95% of fans. Also don't know who these mystery coordinators are.

A year featuring an incredibly low overall turnover among power 5 coaches should significantly benefit any of the "middle of the pack" power 5 schools - there is a significant amount of seasonality/timing to this whole charade. Quite literally, as it's shaped up, K-State couldn't have asked for a better time to seek a new football coach with respect to other openings across the country.

In most years (hardcore reality), K-State wouldn't have a solid chance at guys like LittreLL or Brown or Norvell or Clark (just for JRake). Yet, there's a decent possibility K-State chooses Klieman - a guy who exactly zero Power 5 schools would legitimately consider as a head coach (for reasons articulated to the nth degree).

Gene Taylor made an absolute dogsh!t/give-up/woe-is-us hire in his first attempt at K-State (our current baseball coach).

Why expect anything different for football?

Thinking the stars are aligned so we have a once in a generation chance to hire Neal "Ben Shapiro" Brown is as small-timey as it gets

Let’s not nitpick over the relevant part to his general point. We are a solid P5 program with almost no competition for coaching hires this year. Yet it seems we’re about to squander that opportunity to hire a FCS coach that no other P5 school would even give the time of day.

Hell, KU, one of the most pitiful P5 programs currently went out and got them selves a name, even if that name is a tired retread.

Nitpick over the relevant part? He blew the entire post and premise up. There is no such thing as a homerun hire for most college football programs. Acting like LittreLL, Norvell, Satterfield, and Brown is silly as hell. Most hires made out of that mold fail too. Our pool of candidates would look the exact same any year we'd attempt to make a hire. The chance of any of these decent group of 5 coaching having success at any average P5 program is exactly the same, and that includes Klieman.
One thing I like about CK is he's slightly different. Lower level experience but unprecedented success. IMO he has the most potential upside because of this

Agreed. Also comparing him to other FCS coaches is dumb.
