What a great story. A class act, Coach Snyder does a whole lot in a tough situation at K=State. Ironically, this was the job many people thought Fritz would fit well in if Snyder were to retire. I hope Willie stays and finishes his career here and does for Tulane what Coach Snyder has done for K-State.

Nope, dope. All the espn speculation was about Kansas, which is 3 - 33 the past three years.

He is one of the best coaches of all time and -deserves- to coach Kansas State until he retires or passes away.

Snyder took the worse job in College Football...He and his Family sold recruits on K-State, he also opened the JC ranks to Schools across the country, proving that good players and good kids could be recruited from the JC ranks, he also proved there were some damn good coaches at many of the JC's.....Snyder had chances to leave, but he and his Family loved the Lil' Apple and because of his love and respect for the school he is now not that reliant on JC talent and gladly recommends JC Players to other schools, Texas Tech being one of them..I would like to add the some schools on the west coast recruited the JC ranks before Snyder made it popular..one of the most frequent , was USC

I’m betting he continues to pass more responsibilities to his son, and will only retire when his son is effectively already functioning as the head coach—removing any doubt as to who will replace him.

He had a great team a few years back. In 2012 they went 12-2 with wins over Miami, OU, Ok State, UT, Their only regular season blemish was a beating by Baylor! Then they lost the Fiesta Bowl to Oregon.

The next year they went 8-5 and PLAYED 9 HOME GAMES. I guess the limit is not 7 or 8. Though one was an FCS opponent, North Dakota State, who beat the Wildcats in Manhattan.

You are right. Their website says they were 6-3 at home but they only played 8 home games. My math, bad as it may be, tells me 8 is one more than 7.
