So kstate did not hire that search committee for privacy act protection.  KSA (KState Athletics) is a separate non profit that receives zero federal or state dollars.  No duty to report to FOIA requests.

Sounds like a smart setup.

So I have unique perspective having lived at Fort Riley and from Denton.  Manahattan is not bad but it isn't Austin, Norman, Houston or even Denton.  I think I would prefer Baylor as a job over KSU.  If he takes the job without getting money whipped I would be surprised. Minimum I am taking is doubling whatever UNT offers to keep me.

Why did he not get the TT job? TT seems like it would of been more of a fit with his history. Is KSU a step down from TT? Love Seth but I believe he needs another 2 and maybe 1 more year of experience prove success on the field ,but more importantly as a recruiter! Give Wren a raise! GMG

Pretty sure Tech wanted to get out of the Leach shadow.   Hiring another Leach disciple would not be conducive to that process.

As mentioned and proven by stats he is not a Leach man when comes to passing and running the ball. It is a spred with the formations but he runs out of it a lot more than Leach ever has. Now the D may be something they have in common! We could also compare the philosophy of Wells and see a lot of similarities to Seth. Wells has more experience that to me made him their choice.

Yes, he's smart enough to put his own spin on it, but when you spend several years on staff with Leach at Tech, & have 2 former players on staff...  you're a Leach disciple.

And Tech wanted away from the Leach shadow.

I come in peace! Getting a little heated between some of our fans in each fanbase. I have nothing against North Texas or Denton and Manhattan and Kansas isn't as bad as some have made out here. Whatever happens I'm gonna cheer for North Texas going forward and I hope there will be no ill will towards Kansas State from your fanbase.

I believe Hayden Fry hired Bill Snyder as OC at North Texas and his first win at Kansas State was against North Texas. Also former North Texas coach Darrell Dickey was a K-State alum. So there are ties between the schools football programs. Its nothing personal and I hope you can appreciate the fact, that if some of our fanbase are annoying it isn't a true representation of us as a whole.

Good luck and lets keep it classy Denton and Manhattan.

 

Beyond the coaching tree stuff mentioned, there's just other KState-UNT voodoo that get me jittery:

Our 1985 win over the Wildcats in Manhattan pushed them deep into the wilderness. Snyder's first win in 1989 was over us and brought them back out of the woods. A close tearjerker with Kansas State in 2010 closed out Fouts Field 49-41.

This conjoined at the hip nature of our programs' ups and downs just has me all skittish.

I like Manhattan, KS, as I like most places - but it was the sort of place that reminded me that towns like Omaha, Wichita, or Tulsa actually have tourism ad campaigns that aren't ironic.

I knew I had to get out of Omaha quickly when I saw my first "Des Moines! Catch the Excitement!" TV ad.

2. Applewhite is still better than anything UNT has had in the modern era. Hell, he even has bigger wins than Littrell.

Why do you keep coming back. You're not exactly wanted here.

Keeping Briles was a smart move! Whether Appl leaves or is fired you got your next head coach!

Jesus dude Major inherited a gold mine from Herman and hasn't done crap with it. Seth Inherited a 1 win team. Just to remind you Seth has more wins the last 2 years than Major. If Seth took over for Herman Houston would be giving UCF a run for their money. Not laying Eggs against SMWHO.

That may be due to the bowl announcement. 3 or 4 times we were predicted to be in a bowl vs Minnesota and EJ is from Minnesota and tweeted about getting a chance at them.

There was a team meeting on Sunday.  Last night I saw posts from a few different people from Sunday ('Chico' and J-Lee are both student athletic trainers; other 2 are players obviously).  Maybe something has changed since then, but not likely since SL has been out in New York. If, indeed, the team meeting was about SL leaving (and I'm sure some Bowl chat), I'm not sure why ANYONE would even be posting anything on the subject or anything that could be taken as reflecting on the subject (like such frown faces), as I'm sure they were told not to say anything - obviously their tweets can be open for speculation, but I doubt these are reactions just from the Bowl Game news. Regardless, the next couple of days should be interesting.

Maybe, maybe not. I have no idea. I do think at this point it's safe to say SL is without doubt a legitimate candidate for this opening. Whether they offer him or not, we'll find out soon enough.

Also bc seniors maybe they’re willing to voice their opinion a little more even when told not to be public.  I’m preparing myself at this point to lose him.  I don’t feel like they’d use that verbiage/emoticons for the bowl.

Yep, the last 24 hours have provided a lot of smoke.   Too much IMO to have nothing come out of this.

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      I haven’t bothered looking into it, but I did wonder about a possible personnel change. Maybe Charlotte lost a player right before half or something. Or maybe ETSU gained someone at half after being ineligible in the first.
