yep. The more you think about it the more this is becoming very obvious.

Funny how that works.

For instance, I think Herm's a dolt of a head coach, but a legitimately nice guy. He was a guy that I really wanted to see succeed but damn if he couldn't just stay out of his own way.

KU fans seem to hate Gill right now, and I suppose with good reason. But is he the kind of guy you really want to essentially expunge from existence? I mean it's not like he Quin Snydered you fellas or anything. He didn't bring in a bunch of women beaters and rapists, didn't do coke, put you on probation or nail a player's girlfriend. If nothing else, he was a damn fine representative for your program. Does that spare him any barbs here or is it pretty much just raw, unadulterated hate?

There just seems to be a lot of personal venom towards Gill. I know he was a shitty coach, but damn, he didn't go all Sandusky or anything.
Well, it's a varying degree of hate, but I'd put it on a scale just above Herm. But I hate Herm more than you do.

From my perspective, I hate him as much as anyone would who is a fan of a program that spent years in the cellar, appeared to be climbing the hell out and in the space of 2 years, is farther down in the cellar than they have been in my lifetime.

He's probably a nice guy, but he was an embarrassment to the university and absolutely murdered any progress we had made as a program.

There's no way now, but I think they should not have fired him. He's the best thing that's happened to KU football not named Gayle Sayers.

The list of possible coaches pegged by LJ world has become more realistic now.

Also, an ESPN insider has listed KU as the bottom openong amongst 6 other openings including UNC and Illinois state or northern Illinois (not sure).

Hmm, NIU doesn't have an opening, and there is NO way that Ill State job would ever be ahead of a gig at KU. I think they meant Illinois, which is legit.

Rumor is A&M is going to can Sherm by the end of the day. If so, they will probably take Sumlin or Smart off the market.

Wonder if Sherm would consider going to ku? He obviously has big recruiting ties in Texas.

Braincase 12-01-2011 09:17 AM
Zenger will hire the guy that he knows will flat out work harder than anybody else. In turn, the assistants will do the same. I think that would most likely mean a younger coach. Maybe Mark Stoops is the guy.

That's legit. I could definitely see Mark Stoops taking the KU job.

44 Yrs old, Defensive minded, good blood lines, and as a DC at FSU he has his D ranked 6th in Total D. IMO, that would be a solid hire. Now, that doesn't fit the mold that Zenger wants a guy with HC experience, as MS has NEVER been a HC at any level, but I still think he'd do a great job at KU.

I think this is a realistic hire that can generate some buzz.

I don't think you give up on the "young up and coming coach" idea just because Gill didn't work out.

I've heard some mention that Fitzgerald could be a contender at Pedo State. They want someone clean that has zero connection to Paterno or the university.

He would be great if you could get him to leave Northwestern, but that seems unlikely to me since it is his alma mater.

He has already removed himself from consideration at PennSt. Everything I'm reading says it would take a visit from God Almighty to get Fitz to leave Chicago. Family, Alma Mater... yeah, I'm not optimistic.

If you're Fitzgerald, and someone asks you to leave your hometown and alma mater to coach a worse team in an unstable conference at a basketball school and become the third head coach in just over 2 years after they fired one coach who won the Orange Bowl two years later and then fired his replacement after only 2 seasons, you have to take it.

Northwestern has been kinda funny over the years.

They're an absolute dogass football program most of the time and they pretend not to care. But whenever they get even a modicum of success, their fans get pretty rabid for whatever the duration of the success is.

I think they're a school that thinks they're too cool, too academically elite, to admit that they care about football. When you watch their reaction to success, however, it tells a much different tale.

I think Northwestern could come up with the $$ to keep Fitzgerald.

Oh, and I've been on campus a couple times at NW and I've been to Lawrence - yeah, there's really no comparison there. In fairness, there are few comparisons anywhere; Northwestern's campus is beautiful. Cold as a MFer, but located smack in the middle of downtown Chicago and absolutely incredible.

The idea that Fitzgerald would leave Northwestern for Kansas is amusing.

Doesn't it seem doubtful Kansas will have a huge monetary offer on the table for anyone? They just paid Gill to go away and they paid Mangino to go away two years ago. They can't give tickets away. It does not exactly seem like a program that is awash in cash.

They will need to make another Gill kind of hire, and hope they get it right this time.

The alumni are sacking up. KU is planning to offer 1 - 2.5 per year for the right guy, per Matt Tait.

Fansy the Famous Bard 12-01-2011 02:28 PM
Fitgerald already turned down Michigan when they were starting out offering $2.5 mil a year. And it could have reached $3 mil a year or more if he had really wanted it. He's making $1.8 mil at NW and is happy. There's little chance he even considers KU.

WTF is with you people and the ticket thing?

Like has been stated a million times...90% of the schools in America don't do well when the teams suck.

Paying a coaches salary is a drop in the bucket when compared to how much the school makes when the ticket sales are rolling. This only happens with wins. Especially at a school where most of the fans dollars have to go to basketball games too.

Traveling to NYC and Maui isn't cheap.

Hearing that Keeston Terry is leaving KU. IIRC, he was their biggest get last year. He wanted to go to Mizzou, but there weren't any scholarships left for him. The Tigers could certainly use some depth in the secondary.

One of the reasons he's probably leaving is that he's a receiver and they tried to make him a safety. I don't know that we need him in our receiving corps.

He's going to Northern Iowa.

I've heard UNI as well, but I haven't seen anything saying its a done deal.

I think it's rather silly for a student-athlete to transfer until after a decision has been made about who the next coach will be. You know that somewhere in the annals of history, some kid has transferred to a new school, only for that coach to get hired by the same school the player left in the first place. Not saying that's the case here, but I think Terry should be a little more patient.

Sounds like he is really set on playing WR.

After that absolute terrible effort on that A&M play that pretty much let the wheels come off I don't say I blame him.

Its more than that. KU would have used him as a WR over losing him.
