I literally had no idea Rex Ryan was ever the DC for the KSU Wild Wildcats. His Wikipedia says he was only in that position for a month. What happened?

Ryan joins Ravens
The Capital-Journal
The Baltimore Ravens confirmed Monday that Rex Ryan, recently hired as the defensive coordinator for the Kansas State Wildcats, has taken a job as the team's defensive line coach, as was reported last week in The Capital-Journal.
Ryan, who served as Oklahoma's defensive coordinator last year, guided the Sooners defense to a No. 6 national ranking in yards allowed. He was hired in January to replace Mike Stoops, who accepted Ryan's position at Oklahoma.
Ryan's departure leaves two openings on the K-State staff. Phil Bennett, who came to K-State from Oklahoma as the Wildcats' new secondary coach, has served as a defensive coordinator in five Division I programs and is believed to be a possible candidate for K-State's coordinator position.
