Topic: NEWS FLASH!!!! Mark Snyder will be let go...

[extragreen]

Unless you're in the know, it's just a guessing game.

4-7
5-7
3-9
4-8 or 5-7

1-6 in the last 7 games

No capable QB for the future (at least not that we've seen). May not be Canns fault, I don't know.

Offense compared to the same # of games last year, we're scoring 41 LESS points.

Special teams are a disaster.

Over 12,700 less butts in the seat this year already, and I threw out the uspam game as that is an aberration, and would make the difference much more. That's a loss of at least $200,000.

The only bright point that I can think of is the defense has given up 78 LESS points at the eleven game mark this year. That gap may close some in the Tulsa game.

Summary: It doesn't take rocket science to figure out what should be done. JMHO.

[field pass]

filed pass:  what is your report about the secret big donor meeting that was supposed to have taken place in charleston a few days ago?

If there was more people reporting similar information would you believe it?  I doubt it...you only are going to believe what you want...regardless of the info.

But, for your info, Chezdog confirmed that it DID take place (see this thread mid-page 8)...

and I quote:

Here is some info for the pros and the cons.....I spoke with a booster today by phone that has talked with Pruett AND Donnan in the last two weeks.

Are they interested? Apparently one is and one is not. I wont say whom is and isnt, and I will not say that Snyder is fired or hired....all I was told is that money is there, the decision may or may not be.

The meeting in Charleston that everyone spoke of? It happened.....a flagstaff bank I believe.

IMO...not anyone elses or anything I have heard....Snyder doesnt know what is going to happen...and neither does KO Marcum. The decision lies in the hands of  the BOG's and Kopp and they are still debating.

I was once again told that next Tues or Wednesday, one way or the other, the news will break. I expect it to be in the papers or news late Monday evening regardless.

I am not riding the fence guys....I really dont think the decision has been made yet. This weekend could tell the tale....

Its a fun thread although...

[biggreenarms]

Could be good news or bad news.  Or both.

I think there is a definite possibility of a firm maybe.

[field pass]

Could be good news or bad news.  Or both.

Well, Snyder has a contract...so why would they hold a new conference to announce that they are honoring it?

Also, why would the hold a news conference just to say that Marcum is going to resign next year...as planned?

I think a news conference is only for a change of plans that no one knows about officially.  I think its due to a change in direction.....call me crazy....

The big donors are in agreement that we need a change...none of the real big ones are supporting more of the same....and the big donors usually get there way.

[FAST LANE]

Here is the final decision..

- An MU victory over Tulsa today will result in a statement from Kopp stating that the we like the direction of the Football program and that Snyder is the coach of our future.

- An MU loss against Tulsa today and Kopp will wait until the middle to end of next week to announce Snyder's return and basically make the same statement then as if we won on Saturday.

Note: Either way Snyder returns for at least another season. This statement from Kopp will be made to set a solid foundation for  football recruiting which immediately begins going full tilt tomorrow after the game. This is Fact.
 

[NEHERDFAN]

Well, isn't that just great!

I can't wait to see how Kopp can spin a 50pt loss.

[HerdNBluefield79]

Well, isn't that just great!

I can't wait to see how Kopp can spin a 50pt loss.

Actually, I don't want to see a 50pt loss or another loss for that matter.
If we win today, I just don't want it to be a hallucinogen for administration.

[field pass]

hah hah hah...now that is funny.  But I guess it makes sense....presidents across the country get on the news every year after the season is over and set a solid foundation for football recruiting...that way their coaches can do a good job at recruiting...otherwise they would fail miserably.....  NOT

A president doesnt set a solid foundation for recruiting....and after four UGLY losing seasons...Kopp nor any other president can stop the bleeding...unless the fire the coach.

[carolinaherdfan]

history?

[FAST LANE]

Most presidents do not have to concern themselves with this issue. Unfortunately ours does.. Recruiting plays a big role in this matter.

All the information i post is fact. I never get a hard on, jump the gun, and then punch one out because i just hear something. Which explains this bogus post.. sorry, i meant to say.. this bogus "news flash!!!"

The football staff is flying out tomorrow morning to begin their recruiting assignments. This has privately been backed up completely by the president and the administration. Recruits do not want to committ to an unstable environment. Hence "the firing of a coach." If Snyder was going to be fired it would have already happened by now.. trust me.

Once again.. The information I recieve is fact. I post this info. on this site because i truly believe that this site represents the die hard fans of Marshall and our Thundering Herd. Much unlike the other site. Knowing this information causes me to forever remain anonymous but at the same time as our HFC always sais "it is what it is.." "I have seen it a thousand times."

Go Herd!

[carolinaherdfan]

Snyder will be fired!

[herdfan429]

The same thing would be happening if Snyder were to be fired.  I honestly think a decision has NOT been made either way.  I think today has alot to say in that decision.

[carolinaherdfan]

by the way nation man, what good would it do for Snyder to recruit anymore of his greatest ever recruiting classes? He is A loser, and would only make them A loser as well.

This makes no sense what so ever. If Kopp has definitely made up his mind why would his announcement depend on the outcome of the game? If Kopp has definitely made up his mind it would make more sense to announce Snyder is staying after today’s loss than to delay it five days until Wednesday.

I don’t think you know sh!t.

[Buffalo Bop]

It's a sad state of affairs when a university president would give a coach with a terrible losing record over 4 years another year in Div. I-A football, and have the audacity to say the program is going in the right direction..... >:(, :(, :'(

Wrong. The BOG has finally discussed the outcome and it will be announced on Tuesday. I dont know what the decision was to be honest BUT one of the BOG members told a booster to get their money ready.

Take that as you see it.....I didnt hear it directly but it was relayed to me from the booster.

I guess we will see...

Kopp will not give this statement after a loss. It is smarter to wait some time (couple days) let the storm die down some. This is his reasoning. Not mine. This is not what i "feel" will happen. This is what I know will happen.

Please guys.. dont treat me like the enemy. You are mad at me because I am giving the news you do not want to hear. I hold many of the same feelings as you. I am reporting what I know. I am not taking sides. Time will show soon that I am right. I expect to never be doubted again.

Don't blame you for reporting but if Koop thinks things will die down he is full of $hit.

[ThunderValley]

With that statement, you just shot down any respect you might have gained.
That was teenage

well lucky for me you dont speak for everyone.
Now go throw up in the toilet because you and i know I'm right.. and you see it coming.

Once again.. I AM NOT TAKING SIDES. I dont care what happens as long as this thing gets turned around!!
If its Snyder he better get this team winning next year!!
If its another coach after him.. he better do the same!! We absolutely hate to lose.. I admire that about us Herd Fans.

Wait a minute.  First, you guarantee that Snyder will be back---you even say it's a FACT.

Now, you're saying "if" it's Snyder or "if" it's another coach . . . .

Which is it with you, guaranteed facts or ifs?  Not trying to be argumentative; just trying to understand.

[carolinaherdfan]

Snyder is history

[Thundering Lydia]

Snyder is history

That's what I was told last week.  I believe that is still the case.  Still, I'm not going to state anything as a fact until it's a ----gasp!----- done deal.

[murox]

Mark Snyder is returning in 2009.

Done Deal.  Mark it down.  Bet your mortgage.  Tell your friends.  Cry if you need to.
