I’m still processing my feelings of betrayal for trusting gE reporting, but otherwise am glad jrake was able to intervene before it was too late.

honestly, probably not. i think he's a better coach than LittreLL and a more proven/qualified candidate on the coaching side of things, but i doubt he'd be a great recruiter at k-state. as a result, he'd probably be a guy that tops out at 8-4 if everything goes right.

don't get me wrong, 8-4 is still better than the 5-7, 6-6, 4-8 meteor you somehow just avoided, but it's not the upside this fan base wants after snyder spent the better part of the last 30 years raising the program's profile.

i don't understand the harm in swinging for the fences. this 'search' has been painful to watch. having extreme tunnel vision on a loser candidate was bad enough, but then to witness the fan base drool over LittreLL and his hugely mediocre results was pretty ... sad.

as i've said before, i offer to double babers' salary and go from there.

Hugh Freeze and Geoff Collins have inked deals.  The good ones are getting gobbled up boys..
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

Rake, thoughts on Norvell?

inherited an already built program and (so far) has done a decent job of maintaining it. but hasn't proven a thing to me and would not hire him.

im repeating myself, but aside from massively overachieving all expectations (which almost never happens), it's hard for me to get excited about any coach who only has a three-year track record at one school; let alone a coach who inherited an already stable program. sustained success, over a longer stretch, preferably at multiple stops, is preferred.

Babers is a total babe. I suggest everyone get their hopes up that the 'Stang is announcing it's him this afternoon.
