Bill Snyder apparently likes his son more than Jim Leavitt

Article about how Bill Snyder gave his son the role of coach in waiting over CJL. Nepotism at its finest

I think I am going to take my son to Universal this weekend over Jim Leavitt.

aside from the bad attempt at humor, what I was really thinking was how can you as a university give this type of decision making ability to your head coach. I get that they love him there and he's basically their GOAT but still. Also sucks for Leavitt who seemed to hit a road block in his path back to HC status. Although, I guess he could still get a offer somewhere next year.

I think as a University, you're thinking you're giving the job to a guy who has been an assistant at KSU for 23 years, the last 7 as Associate Head Coach.

Feel terrible for him...he gets $3mm on 1/18 if he doesn't become head coach and has a great gig in Oregon getting paid very well. Moving on...

Even if all he has done is be a DFO and a special teams coordinator? Don't get me wrong I'm sure he would be a great AD but it just doesn't scream P5 HC to me. Maybe I'm misinformed on special teams coordinators, how many P5 Head coaches had only special teams experience prior? The fact that he has only really worked for his father doesn't helpeither. Maybe if he had some experience outside of that shadow, I would consider it a quality pick. All considered, I believe he got the job because of his last name not his merit.
