official: WELCOME CHRIS KLIEMAN -KANSAS STATE HEAD FOOTBALL COACH

[manpow5]

Wait. LHCBS is no longer our coach?!

[Dugout DickStone]

he is very north Dakota in being awkward and no one likes him

['taterblast]

everyone got very excited about all the new things that any new coach would have done

[chum1]

Klieman has clearly lost control of a substantial portion of the team, but also looks like he knows exactly what it takes to right the ship.

[KITNfury]

I'm scared he won't know how to handle all the the attitudes "there's I in Heisman" associated with our talent.

[wetwillie]

I like Klieman a lot. I also like Scottie Hazelton a lot. I basically love the defensive staff and am super meh about the offensive coaches.

[catastrophe]

So 4 months later...

how's the Klieman ERA?   

sorry us NDSU fans have been busy...  a National Championship visit to the White House, Basketball team Actually WON a NCAA big dance game, #1 Shot Put & Discus thrower in the country...... yawn...

They actually went to the WH? Gross, I hope our coach was not involved.

[catbacker 73]

Darnold Jaun Drumpf whose Grand-Father was pimp and AWOL from the German Army and his Daddie was a Kluxer is exactly who we need to help the Nazis and the Kluxers take over our country.

If there was some way to shoot this Treasonis Bastard in the forehead with paintballs until he actually told the truth.
"Trouble is Daarnold Jaun Drumpf cannot tell the truth no matter the questions asked.

[8manpick]

I'm afraid we may need Snyder to come back and calm the waters

[IPA4Me]

Take it to the pit, grandpa.

Not sure even The Pit can handle this...

[SkinnyBenny]

I was in Kansas the other day and saw a billboard that said Win The Dang Day, so I guess you could say he's a complete embarrassment along with our equally North Dakota'y marketing department

[catbacker 73]

I remember what Katastrafee Snot Univ was when I'd come watch my players on Saturdays in Un-Manly-hat-on in the 70s.

after watching and rewatching many NDSU games and breaking down, frame by frame, https://www.footballstudyhall.com/2018/12/11/18135990/can-chris-klieman-duplicate-bison-dominance-at-kansas-state-north-dakota-state

I'm as excited as when HOFCBS took over KSU

Go Cats -- Win the D#MED Day.

[GregKSU1027]

Well this is fun to hear. I truly believe in him. DLEW IM TRYING TO LIVEN THIS BOARD UP

I didn't know we were worried about him leaving us.

I know you only troll now but you'd have to be a goddamned fool to think he isn't going to be a candidate for other jobs. He's going to be tied to every Big 10 opening for the history of forever until he takes one or is fired.

Because of what he did at NDSU and what he did here last year with a bunch kids he didn't recruit he will always be a target. Big 12 middle of the road school is no longer a place people really be like yeah I'll go there and actually commit to winning. I would even say the Big 10 is more desirable than the Big 12.  Klieman is special and will always be desirable. Don't get me wrong i'm not saying we aren't a desirable school, just after snyder finally retired it took a certain type of individual to sign on and fill his shoes.

So what’s the worry? That Snyder would take over?

[michigancat]

Eh people don't get hired up from mid tier B12 schools very often. Matt Ruhle went to the NFL but who else? Obviously they flirt with other jobs to get raises but almost always get fired or stay. (I'm responding to Greg)

Ok valid point but you have to think of others who have left in recent memory? Kliff Kingsbury is another big one. Think of all of the assistants that leave and move on. Head coaches don't move AS often but you might be worried a bigger school will pick him up? If he can build something very nice where we have to reload once every three years. Can you imagine the offers? He could become a D coordinator at an SEC school or move to a school in the Big 10 if they really really needed a head coach. He can and I hope get to that caliber of coach. I just hope when he does get there that he stays at KSU.

Kliff got fired! Klieman isn't going to a DC role and would probably only go to three Big 10 schools if they asked (PSU, Michigan, Ohio State) and those aren't jobs that open up very often and he might not be what they want. Maybe he'd go to NU or Iowa but probably not.

But Kliff is successful! The man hustled his way to his job. But if an SEC school needed a head coach? Would he go?

[star seed 7]

I think Iowa and Minnesota are the schools that would take/kli would leave for. This is based on nothing but my own intuition which is frequently extremely wrong.

eh I suppose but that's not a common move coaches make. Iowa's had Ferentz forever but Minny's last two external hires came from the MAC and an NFL position coach came before them.

And think about the circumstances: I suppose PJ Fleck could build Minnesota into a powerhouse and leave for a top tier job but more than likely he leaves because he gets fired. And if CK is a decent coach he would have built KSU into a steady program that is probably in better shape than Minnesota. Probably not worth the risk to jump at that point.
