Nate Bukaty had an absolute meltdown on air this morning. Producers had to cut the segment off twice, the first time because he was crying and the second time because he questioned Les Miles’ mental capacity.
I waved a piece of paper at him like two Catholic Charities Balls ago after the whole Sneed thing and I've never seen that type of death stare in my entire life. He's a passionate squawk, for sure!
Who the eff takes the job? It's the worst FBS job in a normal cycle but now is just atrocious. As of now, Long is making the hire although he is on the hot seat so you likely won't have the backing of the AD for long. You're doing it at an odd time that puts you behind in recruiting and building a staff. If/when they fire you, they will attack you to avoid paying you what you're contractually owed. They can't even try the FCS route terribly well with the spring season (not that I think this would be a likely route). Bert's now at Illinois so you can't even go after that. I think their only real opportunity is to try a Beaty thing again and hire some young inexperienced coach/recruiter and hope it works but expect that at least saves you money.

in the end, EMAW will always win.

My only hope is that they don't go triple option because I think that is the only way they could be successful.
I would be kinda fun to have KU go the triple option route.
There will always be hungry up and comers willing to take a shot at a P5 job like KU. Someone like Bull Snyder could also be lurking out there that sees an opportunity to have the run of the entire place if they even have modest success.
