Mangino's dismissal comes as a bit of a surprise, as Iowa State's offense doesn't seem to be the team's biggest issue.
Mark Mangino has been let go as Iowa State's offensive coordinator following the Cyclones' 45-21 loss to Baylor on Saturday, according to the school.
Mangino had been on the Iowa State staff since 2014.
There was reportedly a difference of opinions between Mangino and head coach Paul Rhoads.
