Honestly, that would be a great strategy. Say what you want about the Fat Man, but the dude can coach. There isn't a snowballs chance in hell that this will happen, but it would be a solid option in my book.

I only speak for myself, but I don't want any part of Mangino again.

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.

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.

Gill was handed a team that had lost its last 7 games.

Gary Barnett just said he was interested in the KU opening via 810 radio. He's a helluva Coach, but has been idle since he left CU in '05. That's interesting.

He won the B10 at Northwestern (95 & 96) and a B12 Championship at CU (01)

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).

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.

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.

Which is something I'd love - someone with some good recruiting ties to Texas.
