Old Snyder

[michigancat]

You and I agree on something. But just to be clear, if we could somehow get him here just as DC and not HCIW, sign me up. I mean, why not, right?

I don't think there's a guarantee he'll be good at DC.  Yeah, he was amazing 15 years ago, but so was Del Miller 15 years before he went to SDSU.

Good point.  We should hold out for a coach that is guaranteed to win games and be really handsome. 

I'm not against it, just not going to jerk off to the possibility.  It's a very meh change.

If Sean Snyder has actually moved onto the coaching staff, then it's too late -- Bill's "Final Solution" has already begun.

First, get Sean on staff for a year or two, gradually moving up in importance.

Next, come down with major illness, and put Sean in charge just before that season's KU game.

Sean follows Bill's gameplan to the letter and defeats the atrocious Fighting Gills.

Later that week, announce that the illness wasn't as bad as thought, but will require stepping down to stay on top of treatment.  Also say that the program is on solid footing with Sean in charge.  At that point, he shirt-tucks with money get into a frenzy and demand Sean be offered the job -- after all, he fits the criteria: 1. Name is Snyder.  2. Beat KU.

JFC, Bill is a guy who forces assistants to work 18 hrs a day, even if it involves staring at the wall to get the hours in.  You think he's going to let Currie pick his successor without a fight?  He's probably spending 18 hours a day in a tanning bed right now, laughing his ass off.

Not at all as far fetched as I wish it were.

Except the tanning bed, Snyds is awfully pale.

If this happened, I would cease to be a K-State football fan.  I'd have to pick some other team because I couldn't take the anger/disappointment/shame.

I'd put Leavitt-as-DC somewhere between "meh" and "jerking off to it."

If "meh" = 0 and "jerking off" = 10, I'd put it right around 4.

"Oh, so who was he coaching as an assistant in the scouting department?"

for the especially difficult dumbasses Hailey's dad was still on staff when Todd got promoted to WR coach

So you are saying that Sean will eventually become a great head coach and that we will all eat huge crow knowing that Todd and Mike got similar starts?

[LickNeckey]

No I said simply that "for the especially difficult dumbasses Hailey's dad was still on staff when Todd got promoted to WR coach"

At which point you inferred... "Sean will eventually become a great head coach and that we will all eat huge crow knowing that Todd and Mike got similar starts?"

while I implied that being a former punter does not prevent him from being a fine TE coach, as some have alluded

Whether or not he is succesful I do not know.

I know.  Do you want me to tell you?

[LickNeckey]

you don't know hullabaloo

but do enjoy being a pessimistic a$$hat

that i can appreciate

Pretty sure there's absolutely no chance we'll have a HCIW with Currie at the helm.

Guys, guys, guys....


....LOADS of good bbs'ing in this thread, many view points, etc...


However, I think the most important "take away" of this entire thread is that every man, woman and child who has ever rested their eyes on this thred is in complete agreement that putting Sean on staff is a horrible idea, born from the mind of a man who is clinging to his last thread of football relavance by his gnarled, crooked, old man hands.

....Now, moving on from this common base of understanding, let's turn this thread toward examining WHY old balls is too much of a coward to change his ways....what causes this massive, unquestionable character flaw?  

I'm going to go with "no dad in the home," though I am NOT willing to rule out mental, physical, and/or sexual abuse from Hayden Fry.  go cats.

Yep.  AND, it's greater evidence for the existence of God than Oldfella's stigmata a couple years ago, IMO.

[Dr Rick Daris]

at least we won't have to change the name of the stadium again when sean retires in thirty years and passes it along to tate.

Thank God for this! Those letters are expensive   

[O-town Kat]

Going to tell everyone I know that this is Bill's last year.  Will it into happening ya know. What do you think we will present him with at halftime of the ISU game?  A Harley?  What team will give him a rocking chair on the road?

[HeinBallz]

I'm a big believer in thoughts becoming things, so I'm going to organize a combined effort in meditation.   Everyday at 4:00, everyone needs to face the direction of the football stadium, no matter where you are in the world and focus on LHC Bill Snyder being gone and replaced with a successful football coach.   If Indians can make it rain in the desert, we can make KSU football relevant again.

[LickNeckey]

looks like somebody got a copy of "the secret" for christmas

[O-town Kat]

Just need some blowhole like Keitz out there to say 'well lots of KState fans out there seem to think this Bill's last season'

Dear The Whale,

Please don't post depressing stuff like this even if it's probably going to come true someday.  TIA

_33. You need to edit this vid and add Jim Leavitt coming at the last second and saving Bill.

if leavitt comes in at the last second of that video, then currie needs to shoot them both and then go to the dog store and get a mike leach dog and then bring it back to the farm and have the time of his freaking life w/ that thing.

[LickNeckey]

if Jim is in Bill can be delayed

offense really wasn't a problem even with CCQ at the helm

[CNS]

Leach puppies are adorable. 

Would love one.
