From my dorm, I can see lights on in the top floor of the tower. If I had binoculars, I would tell you more.

Wal-Mart. Make it snappy.

That is correct.

A mere three weeks ago, who would have thought there would have been this flurry of activity on the board relating to football?

[sporter]

Well, we know he won't leave town hungry after Olive Garden and Crown Sterling

This could be a really exciting day! Just accept please, Mr. Gill.

[LUFan23]

Presser scheduled for tomorrow at 1:30

Welcome aboard Coach Turner Gill! GO FLAMES!!!

[Jayhawktravis]

Gill had a 5-19 record over the last two seasons at Kansas. He went 20-30 in four seasons from 2006-09 at Buffalo. Am I missing something here? What's all the excitement about?

You have to look way beyond the numbers. He inherited a terrible situation at Kansas, and the job he did at Buffalo was phenomenal. Buffalo was basically a high school team when he took over, you could really make a movie about what he did there. And you have to remember... it's freaking Buffalo, New York... not exactly the recruiting hot bed or high profile destination to get players to win.

For what it's worth, the situation at KU was better when he arrived than when he left.

[goaliejake22]

alright, I'm hyped!

now, back to conference talk. hah.

[Sly Fox]

I've heard from several different people that a news conference tomorrow was imminent. Since there are so many tweets that all seem to be putting the time at 1:30pm, I would assume where there is smoke there is fire.

[bradyfan]

Maybe Barber had the C-USA and construction company (to finish expansion) on the phone just before the contract signing?

[PAmedic]

My Christmas dream come true.

[RVAparks]

Awesome, awesome, awesome hire

[BJWilliams]

Ive talked to a couple of my friends among the students and it seems they only remember how he did in his two years at Kansas (short memories I think)

[Chippy]

Awesome, awesome, awesome hire

I pray this is the right man for the job! His past coaching record aside, I'm hoping he will experience nothing but success and elevate the program.

[Sly Fox]

For what it is worth, I have now verified the 1:30 news conference time.
