Kansas State Trying To Get Out Of Game In Denton

[SUMG]

Boy, I think we all saw this coming:

Here's the part that is pertinent to us:

The nonconference portion of Kansas State’s 2010 football schedule is almost complete. Next season the Wildcats will play host to UCLA, Central Florida and Missouri State. K-State’s fourth game is yet to be determined.

The Wildcats had previously planned on playing a road game at North Texas, but Snyder said “that may not happen.” It is his desire to play all four nonconference games at home.

[LongJim]

Yep. Snyder will try and grab another FCS school for the slot, I'm sure.

RV better have had a hefty buyout clause for this game!!!

[Green P1]

Use the buyout to finance a "Wing" of the stadium!

[SUMG]

Maybe we're working out a deal....to where the game would be played in Kansas City. But the attendance would count as home game attendance for either ULM or Arkansas State.

Just a guess.

Or pay off a coaches buyout.

[UNTLifer]

Tell Snyder to stop being chicken sh!@.

Many of us saw this coming. Baylor fans probably told them about Fouts' condition. Anyway, most game buyouts for us are probably only 50K or less so I fully expect we'll have to replace them with SFA or the like.

6-6 is looking better and better next year!

The second Bill Snyder was hired, I think we all saw this coming.

If we've learned anything this week, it's that a quick and speedy deal will be announced soon.

hmmm

I would be fine bringing in an SFA, SHSU, TX State, or other local FCS school, maybe UCA.

Well, I liked it.

[stebo]

Didn't they get beat by The Cajuns? Was that in Lafayette or at their place?

I'm trying to figure out why he wants to GIVE AWAY a GUARANTEED WIN. They could send their third team and come away with a victory.

[LAZER]

Or pay off a coaches buyout.

BINGO!!! That's the word that I have been hearing for about a week....

[NT91]

Lets get UTEP at Fouts!

Oh, you were serious?

Lafayette

That's what I was thinking

If we played SFA this year, we lose by 2 touchdowns. Wouldn't be so quick to count that as a victory.

Yup we finished at # 162 in the Sargain ratings this year , or behind 44 teams IAA. SFA was ranked # 112. Only 50 spots ahead of us

Take a moment and let that sink in. If we dropped down to FCS , we wouldn't even be ranked in the top 25 in the country

Well, now knowing the new circumstances as of today, I think it's obvious which direction we will go as far as finding a replacement for this game should it get bought out. Hello 1-AA!!!!

But hey, considering Texas State scored the most points of the season on TCU this year, should we schedule them for the replacement there's always that friend in Utah who will surely turn a flip if we were to open with some success against them?

Overcome with merriment,
