so you went from J. Harbaugh,


to Turner Gill...


doesn't it say something that you didn't land anyone in between that spectrum?

Did you just totally repress the fact that Houston Nutt and Tommy Tuberville were practically begging for the KU job, or are you just that much of a hater?

Nutt and Gill have a lot in common.

Nutt and Gill have a lot in common.

Gill:  first KU coach to beat a top 15 team at home since 1984.  But hey, let's go ahead and write him off three games into his first season.  That would be the logical thing to do.

Gotta cut your losses.  Rather waste 3 games on a bad coach, or 3 years?

How long's it been since a KU coach lost to a FCS school?

Not sure, but it's obviously Gill's fault since he didn't even recruit more than maybe 5-6 players on the current KU football team.

So you place ZERO blame on Gill for that loss?
 

Seems contrary to what you said two weeks ago.

After NDSU . . . "RIP ku football" . . . now it's "Don't write Gill off".

Awhile back, "The cupboard is hardly empty at ku" . . . now it's "Gill only recruited 5 or 6 guys getting any playing time".

Aren't those non-Gill players the fruits of the Orange Bowl appearance?

The force has been strong with him over the last week.

[jtksu]

The KU All Star Recruiting Staff only recruited 5-6 guys that are getting any playing time?

So which is it Ben?  Is Gill the reason for KU's results or not?  Or, does it depend on the opponent that week?
