I’m hearing Lance has been to Florida this week
-
I think he would be foolish to leave, if he beats KSU a few weeks ago everyone is super happy with him. Even now 5 wins people ain’t on his case. If he goes to a Florida or Wisconsin any thing less than 10 wins is gonna get you fired after a few seasons.
-
@kjayhawks maybe he went to negotiate with Disney for better TV time.

I really hope we see LL here one more year at least. I do think they do all the right things as far as running a football program, so the floor is higher than a lot of other guys we could end up with. If he makes a bowl this year he should get two years no matter what. Bowls 2/3 years moving forward should be expectations.
Next steps are really just stacking bowls and beating rivals. We aren’t THAT far from that. Win one of these final 3 games, get that bowl and extra practice. Do it again next year.
You can already see us doing better recruiting locally against KSU. Keep that up for 3-4 years and you’ll see KU take a step up, and likely KSU a step down. Let LL recruit to his new facilities for a few years.
The program is in as good of shape as it has been in 13 years. We just need to be a patient fanbase. I do think we are still on the right track. Progress is unfortunately not linear at times
-
Like I said on another topic with all the big name firing this year so far and we likely ain’t done yet. Some of these schools are going to have to fight to get their 3rd or 4th option at HC. That likely could be Lance in a few places.
-
I can’t blame him, FANS wanted him fired!
-
-
Don’t ask me.
-
I deal with unpleasantries professionally for far less cabbage. Just saying
-
@approxinfinity yes if you can’t take some heat after losing to your rival for the 17th straight time (not all on Lance) then you aren’t in the right profession.
-
I sincerely doubt it’s true. There’s basically no interest between Florida and Lance and a coach leaving the state on a game week is unheard of. Probably just a random Twitter account trying to stir the pot.
-
When Lovie Smith got hired by the Bears nearly 20 years ago he said his goal was to beat the Packers, something not happening much at that point. He started out 7-3 against them, finished 8-11. I’m not close to firing Leopold, but having a coach make a statement like this really would endear him to the KU faithful.
-
@wissox Lance’s goal should be to beat the Packers? Maybe the Chiefs…
-
Wisconsins AD announced Fickell will be returning as head football coach in 2026. So that’s prob a bullet dodge, bet he gets a new OC tho lol
-
@kjayhawks II seen that too , was really happy about that-- that was a big one
-
Apparently I’m the only idiot watching KU lose today. But not for much longer. Whoever has the power, please put this miserable program out of its misery. Pathetic…
-
@nuleafjhawk You’re not the only one. Not anything positive to say so far!
-
What the hell happen to our offense
-
There the he// it is!
-
️
🥰
-
I think I poked the bear.
I may have to continue to poke throughout the game.Seriously though, LL or whoever is calling the plays on offense is among the most boring and unimaginative people in college football history.

Lance had to be more aggressive folks, not going for that 4th and 2 on as as big of a play as any today. We have to stop playing not to lose in close games. It has not worked for 2 years. Lance would have a winning record here and 4 bowl games in 5 years if we could figure out close games.
-
Also, send prayers, well wishes, whatever to Lance and his family. Kelly recently had a major health scare.
-
@kjayhawks . - - – Well perfect clarification as to why Coach didn’t go for it on fourth and two. Just read from an article by Swain , said as the decision was being thought over he was told he could not have Jalon on the field for the next play even if he wanted to, He said he couldn’t put him in even with by calling a time out like you can do if it’s a helmet coming off- - - -you can’t put a player back in the game afer an injury called by he officials. Decision made by that
-
Yep he was going to go for it until that
-
@SlimShaddy54 why couldn’t he have put in Ballard or Marshall for one play?
