heh... I posted on teh same message board that shay did when he was just an annoying poster harrassing KU recruits. The fact that idiot made a career out of it shows that anyone can actually do darn near ANYTHING if they truly put their mind to it.

K-State has a Fiesta Bowl trophy.

Sweet I live an hour and a half from Pullman. I might catch a game.

Uh, we have an Orange Bowl Trophy, big fella. It doesn't really form the foundation of our program, so we don't go crowing about it anytime we have to defend yet another winless conference season, but it's there.

You're gonna need to re-vamp your approach a little, Chief. The whole BCS Bowl thing doesn't really work, seeing as how the BCS is little more than a series of a monetary affiliations. MU has a handful of major Bowl appearances and victories of their own.

Come on now. I expect more than this...

I don't bring up KU's Orange Bowls from the past. But I can if you want.

Lots of schools with higher profiles than KU have job openings lost out to Leach too.

Guess WSU pulled one over on everyone.

It's a very, very strange hire imho.

From an ESPN Insider article on the coaching carousel:

Quote:

Kansas Jayhawks: The stadium and facilities at KU need upgrades, and the fact that Turner Gill went from one of the hottest coaching prospects in the nation to unemployed after just two seasons in Lawrence likely will serve as a cautionary tale for coaches interested in taking the job.

Ouch.

Are they going to take away the keys to the equipment shed?

Go early in the season. I watched the Beavers and Cougs in late October in Pullman and froze my ass off.

Never should have fired Mangino, Gill set us back quite a ways. Lew Perkins was the real disaster at KU.

Perhaps because you lost both of them.

In either event, you do bring up KU's Orange Bowls from the past - as near as I can tell, 2008 is 2 at least winless conference seasons ago.

And the only reason you deem it relevant at all is the fact that big money men that are unaffiliated with the University of Kansas determined it to be a 'BCS' Bowl. Otherwise, it's just another bowl win...and one of the few you guys have to talk about.

MU has 'em too; we just don't need to pull them like a gun whenever we can't bear to look at the view in real-time.

The future is bright, that is what we are spending our time thinking about, not the past. Bowl games, wins against conference opponents, being in a power conference... Those kinds of things. But enjoy the good memory.

I've been to a Montana Grizzlies game in November. Now that's ****ing cold.
