It's been decades of course, but I clearly recall walking into "work" on Saturdays and hearing applause at Kenan Stadium along the lines of a tennis match.

It was very polite applause.

It was different.

I think he'll get some "3 star" type players who might have not considered KU.  He might snag a QB diamond in the rough and have a pretty good year sometime.  Some Texas HS players who think they will ride the pine elsewhere might give him a shot.
and all that would be an improvement over what they have..  Success at KU is establish 6 wins and bowl games as a norm and build from there.   Maybe in 5 years you land the 4 star DE from the KC metro area and the 5 star RB from Wichita... but not on day one.   KSU is heading back to historic KSU levels.   Also...The Juco league in Kansas is wide open, unlike the 90's when KSU owned it.   The timing benefits Les...
I'd also say being different in the BIG12 isn't all bad.   He could end up being that tough game to prepare for since his offense is so different.  
The key, imo, is in the expectations.  If the fans and administration believes in 4 years they're playing with OU, he will be a fail.  If they believe they can win 6 games a season in 4 years, he'll be a success.   Mangino had time to build things..  I still believe it can be done again.

Mangino & Mason both had 2 real good years there but it's just a tough gig.Even to get perennial 6 win squads

We've seen teams from Stanford, NW, Duke, etc. be pretty good teams in recent years.

I think we can agree that 2-3-4 programs currently in the dumpster are going to be credible teams in 5-7 years, probably not playoff level teams, but maybe one will (Washington did it).

If Kansas managed that, we'd be suitably impressed with Les obv.  TCU and Baylor were once considered awful, but they had solid years, some great years, before ebbing.

The right coach, and staff, indeed can make a difference at the most unlikely program, but they may not stay.

Mangino must be one of the best coaches in the bizz to have Kansas humming the way he did. I can't believe that no one has ever taken a flier on him. 

It's not like Kansas faded away after he left, they were immediately putrid. He really got a lot out of a thin roster.

Dakich is calling the Louisville/MSU game tonight.

What's the over/under on how many times he brings up the Brohm to Louisville rumors?

Okay. 

Locks is supposed to meet after the Bama CCG, at Maryland. 

If offered, he'll accept. 

Canada will likely get an interview, just cause, and UGA's DC as well.

I hope it's Locks, but if I know Maryland, they'll screw this up by getting Mel Tucker

Locksley can recruit. That’s it. Why would Maryland fans even want him?
