i can't decide which phase of the KU Football Circle of Life is my favorite.  Whether it's over the course of three years or four years, the following cycle plays over and over:

Phase 1: Alright boys, new coach!  Not the most inspiring hire, but at least we've got a guy who knows football.  let's give him a ton of time.  He should be a great recruiter, and anyone is better than that last clown.

Phase 2: Tough season, but it's obvious we're moving in the right direction.  And none of this is unexpected given the shithole the last coach left us in. Let's be patient.

Phase 3:  Horrible season.  I still think this coach is the guy, but if we don't start seeing results next year I think we need to let him go.

Phase 4:  Fire this idiot.  Why is he recruiting so many jucos?  Our football team is an embarrassment.  Anyone would be better than this clown.
Somewhere between phase 2 and 3 at the moment.
Firmly in Phase 3 at this point.

Can they fire him then lose the ensuing lawsuit in horribly humiliating fashion again?

Does that mean they are passing on Harbaugh?  :confused:

"Former LSU football coach."  KU football is too insignificant to mention.

Hoping our KU friends can fire him for cause and not have to pay 4 coaches at one time when they hire their next coach.

Uh oh for Les, but maybe good news for the Hawks.  Maybe they can fire him for cause, on the grounds that he lied during the hiring process (I assume they asked him if he had enormous skeletons in his closet, etc.).

Because he had gone 13-1, 10-3, 10-3 in his past 3 seasons and played for a national title  :dunno:

Firing for cause is less of a disaster than firing without, but unless he's satisfied, KU is going to have to settle/litigate the buyout regardless.

Anyway, KU losing their football coach on March 5 (or anytime before the end of the summer) would be a total disaster.  I don't think there's any way they can make an outside hire anytime soon because of the chronic financial strains on the department, and because the carousel is over (spring practices are starting like, right now), so you're left with promoting the most qualified internal goof on an interim/lame-duck who doesn't have the Miles cache to promote on the recruiting trail.  To boot, there will almost certainly be additional roster attrition thanks to the free-transfers. 

It's a total, complete, impossible to over-state disaster.

If there is any, any, avenue for retaining Miles, they gotta take that route.
