Now, Kansas fans wait.
Following KU’s 38-22 loss to No. 9 West Virginia, the Jayhawks have reached the midway point of the season, which is also significant for another reason: It’s the team’s bye week.
And if KU athletic director Jeff Long had previously decided to make an in-season switch to an interim coach — something that’s uncertain at this point — then this seems like it could be the time to do it.
Often, when ADs fire coaches midseason, they try to do so during an off week to give the new guy an extra week to adjust to his surroundings.
