Less than a day after defending Kansas's vetting process of Les Miles, athletic director Jeff Long has been reportedly fired by the school.
Sports Illustrated's Ross Dellenger confirmed the report, adding that there is a department-wide meeting at 2:45 pm CT and that Kurt Watson, Kansas donor and alum, has been named the interim athletic director.
Just two days ago, Kansas "mutually agreed to part ways" with disgraced head coach Miles after reports of sexual misconduct released from his time at LSU.
