I have seen stranger things happen.

I respect him but I don't like him.
Glad is gone from LSU.
The scared coach he is talking about was him while at LSU - not sure if he realizes that or not.

Don't be a jack arse, he's also already won 2 games. People said he'd be lucky to get 1.
Kansas opened against an FCS team and Coastal Carolina. I’d bet it would be very hard to find anybody who thought they’d lose one of those.

Ok, I have scanned this entire thread and I don't see the answer/comment to the question I am about to pose...
Why in the hell would you name your daughter Smacker?

It's a nickname she's had since she was little.

3 games in and they are 2-1.
1st road win against a p5 program since 2008.
BC was a 20 point favorite

Kansas started the season 2-1 last year too. They won one game the rest of the season.

KU football lost Saturday. Here’s why the home crowd gave a standing ovation anyway
“I just was very thankful that the people who came into that stadium enjoyed what they saw,” KU coach Les Miles said, “because those kids were playing their hearts out.”
When listing positives, one has to start with the buzz the program is generating. Following a 48-24 victory over Boston College last week, KU football drew a higher home attendance for a third straight contest; this time 35,816 was announced, which was the highest home total since a 2017 game against Kansas State.
After falling behind 12 in the fourth quarter, Stanley engineered a 70-yard touchdown drive with 2:10 left. KU’s final desperation gasp came from its own 48 with just a few ticks left, and the team executed a hook-and-ladder pitch that nearly broke free, with Pooka Williams finally being shuffled out of bounds at the 12-yard line.
Perhaps the big-picture takeaway here is the fact that most KU fans remained in their seats because of something that’s been absent for most of the last decade: hope.
This wasn’t a KU team beating itself with penalties. There wasn’t disorganization on the field or unnecessary timeouts or a Jayhawks squad looking hopelessly outmatched talent-wise by a Big 12 foe.
Yet, even knowing that, a rational view would say KU also was just a bit unlucky too. One of the best indicators of wins and losses is yards-per-play totals, and the Jayhawks finished at 7.4 while the Mountaineers were at 4.6.
So here’s a stat: According to College Football Reference’s Play Index, there had been 65 college football teams coming into this week who had gained more than 7 yards per play while holding their opponent to 5 yards or fewer in a game.
The record of those squads before Saturday: 64-1.
In the end, it still goes down as a loss. KU falls to 2-2 and has a rough stretch of schedule ahead while playing ranked teams each of the next three weeks.

He'll take this team to a Conference Championship - just like Saban did with a 3-8 LSU team.... 
Now we'll see how he does when he's not riding coattails.

exactly. Ed O has this team rolling and lord knows what people think of his coaching prowess here.
Les almost drove this program into the ground. We could have ended up like Tennessee or Arkansas
