yeah yeah yea.....OK...

There has been discussion about this being a one year deal and him becoming a full time assistant after this year.  If he's ONLY going to be ST coordinator, that's fine.  Then we would need to consolidate two current jobs into one and eliminate a position.  If he's going to coach something else also, then I'm interested in what else he has experience in.

I'm not a believer that you just plug someone into a position because you want them on your staff even though they haven't done anything to show they can do that job.

He would only coach ST and that's all he's ever coached before which is fine with me. Full dedication to that aspect 

 
K-State special teams has led the FBS in touch downs over the last 10 years with 44 or 45 TD's, Alabama is second with 32 or 33 TD's over that 10 year span.

 
They have actually led the FBS the last 20 years:K-State has scored a nation leading 96 non-offensive touchdowns since 1999. It’s not just that K-State has turned specials teams into an identity, they’ve turned it into points which translates, as we all know, to wins.

I hear you - however it shows how things take time and results show up on the field way after the hard work is done.

He obviously knows a thing or two and can guide what needs to happen, I'm excited about that.   Still have to identify who will be the one coaching and making calls in game however as he cannot as an analyst.

 
image.gifHave we offered Snyder yet?  Sad to read about Sean's 22 year old Son's suicide last Feb..

While watching Iowa in their bowl game, I was surprised when the commentators put up a chart listing Hayden Fry's assistants on their 1983 team..

Five of the staff would go on to become the winningest head coaches at five different programs: Snyder (Kansas State), Alvarez (Wisconsin), Stoops (Oklahoma), McCarney (Iowa State) and Ferentz (Iowa).

This was very enlightening.  Thank you.

After reading this and the subsequent posts...To summarize it sound like Snyder would be a coach in waiting similar to what could be proposed for Lubick.   In the short term Snyder run the position group in the film room and do the planning and direct the G.A.   Frost or the G.A would then coordinate in game and in practice.   Eventually Snyder is on the field if Becton leaves in the future.  ST/TE coach is a good combination.

He interviewed yesterday at Texass to be TE and special teams COACH..Seems like a no brainer if they offer..

I like the hire.  The improvement at every single place he has been is impressive.  As impressive as it gets tbh.

Maybe in a couple years he can be our special teams coach.  He is so young that we don't know how good he is yet, but everyone starts somewhere.  Looking at the little we have to judge him on, it's nothing but impressive.
