Christ, Wefald...
Effing discussion about Rhodes Scholars.
Shut up and talk football.

Wefald just announced...
…that we have another student has won a Rhodes Scholarship. That’s awesome!
Now he’s talking about a professor who won a prestigious award last week (National Professor of the Year for nation’s doctoral universities).
Is he trying to deflect the attention from this?

But Wefald’s voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me at this point.

Quick thoughts
1. It sounds like this was done as a stop-gap answer to the instability within the program. Since no assistants are planned as of now, it looks like Bill may actually be here the full 5 years of his contract, or at least until the new UP gets settled in.
2. The guy has watched some football and paid close attention to what is going on in the world of football the last couple of days. He wasn’t just mowing his yard and playing golf. I’ll even go so far to say that these past 3 years off may have been good for him. Hopefully he’s realized what he needs to do to win in today’s age of football.
3. I truly hope this is the best decision for K-State. I would have liked to have grabbed a young head coach with a good track record, but for now that will have to wait. I have no doubt Bill has the ability to coach for another 3-5 years, but I do wonder how our fan base will react if we don’t reach a bowl by the second or third year.
I think we should all hold hands and hope this was not part of some huge PR stunt to satisfy donors and increase season ticket sales…..
