have many coaches with success retired before 60? we're in good hands at least. klein feels different than all the other hot shot young coaches out there. more substance over style.
It's pretty rare...Most head football coaches are journeymen who don't stay somewhere longer than 5 or 6 years. Most (good) head coaches are also complete freaks who are addicted to working and watching film and all that stuff. If CK isn't one of those freak personalities (and he actually may not be, who knows) then an early retirement wouldn't be that strange.
CK will have made tens of millions from Kansas State by that point. If he wants to hang it up and kind of be done with the CFB HC grind, I wouldn't blame him or be too surprised.
On the topic of Klanderman, I'll be surprised if he's our DC next year. I could see some Big Ten or SEC program is going to offer him a bag or he'll be HC of some MAC/Sun Belt school.
