Gill, who was paid $6 million to leave Lawrence after going 5-19 over two dreadful seasons, has landed a stranger job. He'll be announced today as head coach at Liberty University, the ultraconservative Christian university founded by Jerry Falwell. In a press release, Liberty athletic director said, "Turner embraces all that Liberty is and stands for, and it will be a privilege to work alongside him as we continue to move our football program forward." Maybe he was referring to Gill's infamous rule banning players from being in the presence of women after 10 p.m.? Or perhaps it's his policy of no cell phones on game day? It certainly can't be his record as a coach, right? And check out the awesome Photoshop job that Liberty did on the right. Fireworks!

How is this liberal...isn't this capitalism? The government didn't reward failure private colleges or corporations did.
I think KU should have hired Jerry Sandusky.... bet he could turn those boys around!
Simmer down Jack. Both of these moves aren't promotions or even lateral moves; they're straight-up demotions.
So many people out of work, and these bastards get jobs right out of the gate?! See liberals, this is what reward for failure is. This is what happens when there is no incentive to actually do your job. A welfare state for the coaching elite. Same shit happens when Sprint fires their CEO. Payment for failure is what is destroying the US. To the unemployed, ... those are your salaries being sucked up into CEO golden parachutes. This shit should make everyone angry.
