Good move and good timing. Get ahead on things while KSU dicks around with how they are going to get rid of their old fossil.

I thought he deserved another 5 years at least

Lol

KU football coach has to be one of the most difficult jobs in the world

I mean mangino did it but was mean to the kids and was too tough on them so he was let go. They have been a trashfire ever since.

Les Miles

KU was trending down at the end and they just used the being mean to the players as a valid reason to can the fat ****.

The mistake was the following 3 stupid ass hires. The next hire for KU will depend on how much they want to overspend on a HC. If they overspend enough and put in a ton of years on the deal for security, they could land a quality candidate.

If I were the AD there, I'd double the pirates salary and guarantee him the time to build the program. If he can turn around ****ing Wazzu, the guy is what KU needs.

Yup.

He's 64 years old. I'm sure he'll do a decent job of recruiting and then getting bombed out by teams with less talent.

Favorite is probably Mad Hatter....but I don't know why. He was ran out of Baton Rouge because he wouldn't conform to the pass heavy offenses of current times.

With the hiring history of KU football they'll end up with Butch Jones.

Considering KU's recruiting class for next year consists of one two-star player, you're talking as if the bar can get literally ANY lower than what it is right now.

Hire Trent Green!!!!

Wazzu football history >>>>>>>>> KU football history.
