A bit...but Im guessing Coach Gill(and Mr Barber) is being very careful to not only vet candidates from his own staff but from the guys who stayed around from the previous staff as well as those from neither staff...course the whole fact that Christmas was yesterday might have something to do with it too...

It would certainly be great to have staff announced. But we do have known staff on the ground out recruiting. Some of his KU staff are up for FBS jobs. We may be the fallback.

I know you are Hindi and probably forgot about this. But over the last week or so most people, especially here in America, have been focused on this thing called Christmas. It's a neat little holiday. People like to spend it with families, buy presents, go to church, all sorts of things really. Not a lot of work gets done. :D

yeah BEE-JAY i realize it was Christmas :roll: i made the comment because im just thinking back to when other schools have made hires and the new coach puts together a staff pretty quickly. hopefully the wait is worth it. and Haize......do your comments have anything to do with Tim Tebow?? lol

Looks like we have replaced those that are officially gone. Anything on their specific jobs, OC more than anything others are fairly obvious.

I dont think anything official has been determined. the SID folks are getting rolling again after some time off for the holidays so news isnt exactly gonna come at our instant desire as to things like that. Im sure Chris will have something to say about it in the next week or so as well

Gill doesn't want to talk about his staff until it's completed. I've been told he should have it done by the first of the year.

By my count, we are waiting on just one name. And as I mentioned earlier in the thread, he is likely waiting to see if one or two guys who are interviewing for FBS gigs becomes available before he locks it all up.

You don't have to get so worked up when people ask questions. This is a fan message board. Of course things take time coming together. Doesn't mean Smooth can't still ask that question.

Of course it means Smoothie can't ask a question. Everyone knows (because Beej tells us every. single. time.) that our resident scribe will tell us when something new is about to happen because he, and only he, knows these things.

You just posted a link. He posted what the link meant. May have been a minute late but it was a million times more useful.

Thanks bob and jon. BEE-JAY I know you are simply trying to help but sometimes it's best to not to respond to every single comment one makes. Carry on!
