Head football Coach Turner Gill Fired




University of Kansas football coach Turner Gill was fired Nov , due to an unsuccessful football career at KU. The coach only worked at KU for two years, and didn't have a lot of time to make changes. Gill signed a  10 million dollar contract with the university. This is the statement from the University of Kansas.
"After a thorough evaluation of our football program, I have concluded that new leadership is necessary to place us on the path toward competing for championships in the Big 12 Conference," said KU Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger. "I come to this conclusion reluctantly because I have the utmost respect for Turner Gill as a quality individual who wants only the best for the young men he coaches."

    It's a shame that he only worked for years. But if you don't do your job (win games) your out of one.
