Kansas State's Bill Snyder to retire after 27 seasons

Bill Snyder, the Hall of Fame Kansas State coach who orchestrated one of the most improbable program turnarounds in college football history, is expected to announce his retirement Sunday afternoon, multiple sources told ESPN.

A team meeting has been called for 2 p.m. CT, according to a source. The Manhattan Mercury first reported the news.

Snyder, 79, went 215-117-1 over 27 seasons at Kansas State, including a 128-89-1 record in the Big 12, with two conference titles. The Wildcats, however, went just 5-7 this year and missed out on a bowl for just the fourth time since 1992 under Snyder.
