Lol.... and of course recruited a lot of All-Americans and great student athletes who later competed at the highest level.

I can understand what you are trying to say. That their coaching heydays have past them by. But Gene >>> Bill. Gene's top is >>> Bill's and the results at the end for Gene is also >>> than what KSU is getting from Bill.

Absolutely. Gene never had a below .500 season and actually finished his career in an NCAA Tournament. Snyder OTOH...

Bad comparison.

On the other hand, both coaches were able to fulfill their respective university's maximum upside ... Gene a National Championship, Snyder got a Toilet Bowl or something.
