KU hires Charlie Weis

In the face of universal ridicule from national football pundits, KU hired Charlie Weis as its next football coach. Yes, Charlie Weis, the architect of that 102nd-ranked Florida offense, is now the savior of KU football.

As a college head coach at Notre Dame, Weis was 35-27 in five seasons, or basically a 7-5 average. He took the Irish to two BCS bowls, but I kind of doubt KU gets a BCS bowl berth at 9-3 or 10-2 like Notre Dame does.
