    Default Head Coach Bill Snyder

    Lost in all the pre game smack is that when we take the field against K-State the Bison will be facing one of the greatest college Coaches of all time. A win in Manhattan would be a huge notch in the belt for Bohl and I am sure he is stoked about the opportunity. What the guy has done there is nothing short of amazing. In the modern era (post wwII) he has led K-State to its first bowl game, first bowl win, first conference championship and two number one rankings in the AP poll. He basically saved an athletics program that was on the verge of being thrown out of the old Big 8. Yes, it was that bad. Their overall record before Snyder was 299-510.

    Now I am no K-State apologist and I have a very special hate for the Power Cat. However, it is hard not to respect Coach Snyder as he has won with class, graduated his players, all while not cheating.

    In the 4 years prior to Snyder's arrival K-State went 3-40-1. In the 2 years prior K-State went 0-21-1. His first year K-State went 1-10.

    One minor correction. K-State's first bowl game was in 1982 under Jim Dickey. They lost the Independence Bowl to Wisconsin 3-14.
    I love College FOOTBALL!!!

    Yes. While it won't happen, I'd love nothing more than such a beatdown that their fans tell the old man its time to go back into retirement.

    This is even dumber than some of your Notre Dame statements which I didn't think was possible.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    If there's one thing I have learned about college sports (and living through the steroid era for that matter), I wouldn't proclaim ANY program to be 100% clean.
    Stand your ground, have a tough hide, roam wild and free, have a strong spirit, let the chips fall where they may.

    I was going to say the same thing. The last line should read
    Snyder as he has won with class, graduated his players, all while not getting caught cheating.
    Maybe he runs a clean program. Maybe he runs a program that looks clean.
