They needed to rehire the fat man, the fat man led Kansas to a number 1 ranking and Orange Bowl win in '07.
2007, Missouri vs Kansas was 1 vs 2. USF was #2 for a week and LSU won the National Title with 2 losses.Mangino got Kanass to #1? What year was that?

Some guy named Tim Tebow won a Heisman.
Edit: My bad it was number 2, they won their first 11 games and lost to number 1 Missouri.
They finished 12-1 and ranked 7.

Wow Boston College up to #2 in the middle of the season as well https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_NCAA_Division_I_FBS_football_rankings
Was that the year they had Matt Ryan?
What a crazy season.
That was the year Kentucky beat LSU in double overtime. I think Arkansas beat them in double ot. as well, Houston Nutt!!
That 2007 LSU team was Saban's last recruiting class, they were seniors on that team. Glenn Dorsey was one of them them. The defense was stacked, they shouldn't have lost a game all year.
That was the year sadgator got laid...
It was nuts!
Pretty sure Mark Mangino was the coach at Kansas during that time. He’s since not even coaching at all anymore.
He got in some trouble for mistreating his players. Miles is a great get for KU. They’re not going to do better than that.

I actually think it’s a terrible hire for them. A school like that needs a coach who can do more with less and Miles is the complete opposite of that. Arguably no coach wasted more talent than him year to year. And that offense he runs in the pass happy Big 12 won’t work either. They’re gonna need to score to keep up and his offenses couldn’t score with NFL talent all over the place. He’ll be fired in a few years.

If you look at his record at Okie State it really wasn’t that great. Mike Gundy has a much better record at Okie St than Miles did.He has ties to the big 12, he coached at Oklahoma State before going to LSU.
We have to remember that the big 12 is a much easier conference to have success in than the SEC . You can trip into an offense capable of scoring 40 points in that league.

Agreed. You need to get lucky and get a good X’s and O’s coach at a place like Kansas. Whose he going to recruit to go there? Sure he may recruit better than they have in the past but not that much better to make up for his lack of in game coaching. Not to mention he had the entire state of Louisiana to himself at LSU. It really isn’t that hard to recruit there.And he’s not scoring 40 running I-Formation offense trying to run over teams like he did at LSU. It barely worked there with NFL talent all over the place. It ain’t working with Kansas level talent. Don’t know why they didn’t take a chance on some young up and comer instead of this retread.
Seems like yesterday...That was the year sadgator got laid...
It was nuts!
That 4th and 1...like 6 freaking times in that game...they had that white boy can't remember his name....he played in San Diego for a while...we couldn't stop him...bastard! I'm still pissed!!All I remember was them beating us on that 4th and 1 conversion.
Jacob Hester.... He plays for Denver now.That 4th and 1...like 6 freaking times in that game...they had that white boy can't remember his name....he played in San Diego for a while...we couldn't stop him...bastard! I'm still pissed!!
Yep, that kid balled out...it was impressive...I HATED IT!!!!! lol LSU always had 1 dude on the D line (ususally up the middle) that can't be stopped...just blowing guys up and all the freaking WR/RB and DB's that can just straight ball out. We had ours too...those were some great match ups and some great games. I don't know what it is but I love that game every year. I lived in New Orleans (basically) for 2 years and the fans there are pretty great IMO.Jacob Hester.... It was something Hester.

lmfao...that's true. Our Gators are on the rise though. If we take down FSU this year...even if we don't win the bowl Mullen has done the unthinkable this year. I was at the LSU/UF game this year...like the old Swamp. It was legit.Our programs have very similar history, 3 National championships but no undefeated seasons yet. We should have had two but freaking Ole Miss ruined it.

After Saban’s players graduated, he became the West version of Mark Richt.I actually think it’s a terrible hire for them. A school like that needs a coach who can do more with less and Miles is the complete opposite of that. Arguably no coach wasted more talent than him year to year.

Turner Gil was an up and comer and didn't make it at Kansas. I don't even know if some Big 12 defenses can stop an I Formation offense. He may put together a defense capable enough to slow down a handful of offenses in conference and ooc.And he’s not scoring 40 running I-Formation offense trying to run over teams like he did at LSU. It barely worked there with NFL talent all over the place. It ain’t working with Kansas level talent. Don’t know why they didn’t take a chance on some young up and comer instead of this retread.
Wonder if that prarie grass taste better compared to bayou grass.
He will probably find one of those Mike Leach proteges out there. I don't know who is avauavail but that's probably the style he will go after.I believe they have Astro turf there so he'll have to bring in his own personal slice of sod.
But also, who's to say that he's going to run that offense?
When he was at OK State he had Gundy as OC.
He may go more wide open. Probably thought that the way to win in the SEC was power football.
We'll see.
This will say a lot about Leslie.
