He’s the 2nd most successful football coach at K-State, he’s bringing in the highest rated recruit oat, and is one game away from a Big 12 Championship game appearance.

That's a depressingly low bar but one he clearly has crossed

If I were Klieman I would make a plaque "Second Most Successful Coach in Kstate History" and hang it in my office to show recruits.

Coach getting paid millions to win games, wins games (more times than not).

Amazing!   :love:

WackyTuck, I'm proud of this house we built and I'm glad that KSUFB Coach Chris Kleiman is doing the job he's paid millions of dollars to do  :thumbsup:

Thanks for reminding us he gets paid what the market is going for as a D1 P5 coach.

I DGAF what other schools pay their coaches.  That's their problem.

Again, I'm very pleased that KSUFBHC Klieman is earning the millions of dollars he's paid  :thumbsup:

If we beat ku and tcu beats iowa state then I think at that point it is 100% a lock we are going to the sugar bowl, barring some serious skulduggery by the CFP committee

No gEing I am in general about as reasonably happy with our coaching hire and what he has for the most part done during his nearly 4 seasons as our coach.

I am most happy that we can I think now say we don't need a Snyder to win at K-State, which was for me the fundamental thing he had to prove and has done so

I like getting to 8 wins 3/4 seasons, with a fairly okish excuse for a weird as 2020, which still even featured us coming back and beating OU.

He's also won a bowl game fairly emphatically, that is good too.

If he does beat ku again this week and send us to the Pepper, it's another decent feather in his cap, and if he beats TCU that's a real big feather he can claim, and if we then win the Sugar bowl it'll be quite the season, even with some wtf game, and we can look forward to Will Howard for one more season leading us to many more wins next year. He's got a lot of chances here in the not too distant future to make himself distinguished instead of being a nice but not spectacular coach. I do think the future is fairly bright, and overall we're moving in a good direction, but it may take us a bit yet to get there, we'll see.

I think every football coach that wins a conference championship should have a statue at K-State.

It should be a “thing” at K-State to commemorate every conference football championship with a statue.

My thoughts, at the time of the hire, was that it had a higher risk of being a total disaster than some of the other candidates given his lack of work at the D1 level but if he could replicate what he did into a D1 model then it would be great.  Based on what has been done so far I think we can safely say this is not a disaster (aka Ron Prince). 

He still has a lot of work to do to get us to the peak Snyder era though.  I am generally pleased and think we are headed in the right direction, he seems to be able to recruit at a high level (not Alabama high but KSU high) which was my biggest concern.

I don’t think it’s feasible to ever get back to peak Snyder era.

Call me small timey but I will be perfectly happy if this is what the average Cat football season looks like for the rest of my life.
