-Normally we would talk about game, but what about The Report? First of all, I haven't confirmed any of this. But, assuming true, I love Jim Leavitt. I have stayed in touch with. He's a great, modern coach. Did awesome at Colorado, and is really having a good year on the defensive side at Oregon this year despite Oregon's struggles otherwise.
-Stan: Who knows who was in charge and may have done this, but I think it may have been an insurance policy not knowing how Coach Snyder would handle the cancer. So, by buying the insurance, they did nothing but cover themselves without knowing the future of Bill. I believe when news broke about coach, they may have reached out to make sure Jim was ready to slide in.....and if Bill's ok, it only cost them $3MM to cover themselves.
-About Snyder saying say that about Sean? No surprise. He's said that publicly to support his son. As far as not agreeing with the plan, I could see Snyder saying "we don't need no HCIW around here."
-Does this affect Coach's decision to retire or not? I think it could. I really don't think he's decided, but I do think this will go into the evaluation. Yes, I do think there's a chance (but, he didn't say how or which way)
-What do you think will happen? I don't know. We have new AD. I don't know how involved Meyers was involved in any of this. But, this does feel like 2004.
-I thought going into this year, that if K-State played well this year and had a good year, no reason why he wouldn't come back. I thought going into the year that if they didn't, Snyder would internalize, blame himself, and step away.
-For example, listen to post game. He's extremely frustrated. He's putting all blame on himself. He says it's his fault.....for example he mentions we have to improve tackling.....and he has nothing to do with tackling in practice. So, probably depends on how year finishes.
-Key to Saturday? Have to get TO's. Only chance. But, against WVU, still didn't take advantage of. But, K-State seems to play OSU close....and OSU hasn't been world beaters at home this year.
-Have to convert on 3rd down. Yards per game (play?) are the same as last year......but biggest difference is 3rd down conversion rate.
