Woah...that’s late for the carousel.

Edit: I forgot Miles had all this extra curricular stuff that forced Kansas’ hand.

I guess now we can see, year by year, if LL or BB was the real deal at two lower level programs.

And the second time in a little over a decade they have taken a coach from Buffalo. The last one did not work out so well.

It might have if they had given him ANY time.

Maybe. But it's not like he walked into a terrible situation. Mangino didn't get fired for his record or lack of talent on the roster, and Gill came in and was terrible. 2 years is not enough, but they might have heard about internal problems and figured it was time to pull the plug. They have been the worst D1 program since then.

To be fair, they have been the worst D1 program for a long long time. (Mangino yrs, accordingly to their fans, was a fluke)
