KU ***** OFFICIAL 2015 KANSAS FOOTBALL THREAD ***** - Page 56

Let's go...

Rob Likens (Offensive Coordinator)

"Rob has been a major player in some of the best offenses in the history of college football,” Beaty said of his new OC, who enjoyed great success at Louisiana Tech and helped lead Cal's 2013 offense to several school records and put the 2014 version in the Top 10 nationally. “I have always been a fan of Rob's ability to develop players who produce at a high level. Rob has learned from some of the best in the country and is as fine of an offensive mind as I have been around. Rob is a man of integrity and character and I cannot wait for our team to be able to benefit from his wisdom."

Zach Yenser (Offensive Line - Run Game Coordinator)

A source with knowledge of the rest of the Kansas University football coaching staff told The Journal-World on Tuesday night that Cal assistant coach Zach Yenser would join Beaty's staff as the offensive line coach and run game coordinator.

Cal coach Sonny Dykes later confirmed the news via a statement given to Cal's Rivals.com site.

Clint Bowen (Defensive Coordinator)

Je'Ney Jackson (Strength and Conditioning)

"Je'Ney brings a great familiarity with the University of Kansas as well as a wealth of experience in the strength and conditioning world," Beaty said. "His ability to develop and relate to our players will be a large part of our initiative moving forward. He is widely regarded as one of the top coordinators in this field. He is without a doubt, my most important hire and we are honored to have him here."

Kevin Kane (Linebackers)

"I always admired Kevin as a player, but I am even more impressed with his ability to teach and develop young players. He is a tireless recruiter and he is as well thought of in the Kansas City community as anyone I know. He will bring an energy and toughness to our team that we will all benefit from. It has been fun watching his linebackers play over the years and I'm glad that he is now coaching our guys.”

Calvin Thibodeaux (Defensive Line)

"His players exhibit responsibility, toughness and passion and we are looking forward to him bringing those elements to KU. His ability as a coach is only surpassed by his upstanding character and integrity as a man."

Klint Kubiak (Wide Receivers)

"He is as hard of a worker as I have ever seen in our profession. His ability to connect with his players in the NFL and at Texas A&M has been impressive to watch. Our wide receivers will benefit greatly from his experience."

Gene Wier (Director of High School Relations)

"Not only is he fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming a Jayhawk, but he will certainly add a much-needed element to our staff. His long-standing relationships with the great coaches of the state will allow us to better understand and serve our coaches."

I was reading that Rhodes was unhappy with the play calling and personnel on the field.
Either way, typical chickenshit move by a chickenshit coach....throwing his coaches under the bus to save his ass.

Correct. Mangino has blown a couple of games with his awful play calling, and probably more by just not using players to their strengths. Sam Richardson is more of a running threat than passing, so what's Mangino do? Doesn't let him run any more and decides to just throw passes and not even utilize his good RB's like he should.

RustShack · 10-26-2015, 07:50 PM

The guy Mangino wanted to start was benched, Lanning did a hell of a lot better. The entire offense looked a hell of a lot better, which in turn helped the defense perform better. Whole team ended up looking good against #2 Baylor after the QB change.

Lanning threw a long TD pass against TCU and Mangino pulled him, even though previous games he was being used more and more in running packages. He just didn't want a QB controversy.

It was on the radio from the local Iowa State reporter.

I was shocked as anyone that there are people that actually cover your shit program(s).

You gave up more yards to Texas Tech than anyone had in the history of their program.

You won't be power 5 as soon as Kansas leaves the Big 12.

ISU and KSU are toast.

The Jayhawks have atleast won the coin toss the last two weeks.

Weird, because our defense has held 6 out of 7 offenses under their average. Baylors starters had to play the whole game, didn't take their pads off at halftime like they did against you clowns. Also every team we've lost to have a combined 3 losses, and those three losses are against Baylor, TCU, and Oklahoma.

7 years in and your team is still giving up 800 yards in a single game.

No wonder Mangino quit that mess.

Bambi · 10-26-2015, 11:41 PM

lol, even the players weren't told about Mangino walking out on them.

There's also players who believe Sturdy should have been the OC since he got here. And you're literally the only person I've heard who claims Mangino quit. His son still coaches at Iowa State too.

Of course he quit. He's accomplished more in his pinky figure than Iowa state has in football.

Once he realized how stupid your head coach was he bolted. At least that's what's the Iowa state reporter said. I have to be honest, I was only have listening. No one cares about Iowa state.
