  • Buffalo's Gill to Coach at Kansas Page 1 of 2
    ESPN.com - Buffalo's Gill to coach at Kansas Page 1 of 2 ESPN.com: College Football [Print without images] Saturday, December 12, 2009 Updated: December 14, 2:56 PM ET Buffalo's Gill to coach at Kansas Associated Press LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Kansas hopes that Turner Gill can do for the Jayhawks what he did for Nebraska. As a smooth option quarterback in the early 1980s, Gill was the difference-maker for the Cornhuskers, helping free them from Oklahoma's long domination and propelling Tom Osborne's program to the top of the Big Eight. Later as an assistant coach, he helped develop a Heisman-winning quarterback and was a key member of the staff that led Nebraska to the 1994 national championship. Kansas made the hiring official on Sunday and will formally introduce Gill as successor to Mark Mangino on Monday morning. "I think Kansas has made a fine decision," said Osborne, the Huskers' former coach and current athletic director. "He will do a great job." Mangino, the most successful Kansas coach in 100 years, resigned under pressure on Dec. 3 after a two-week investigation into alleged mistreatment of players. Just two years earlier, Mangino had been consensus national coach of the year following a 12-1 campaign and a victory in the Orange Bowl. But misconduct has never been connected with the 47-year-old Gill, who has experienced nothing but success everywhere he's been. As head coach at Buffalo the past four years, he compiled a 20-30 record after inheriting a program with only 12 wins in the previous eight seasons.

  • The College Football Hall of Fame Upon His Retirement After the 1997 Season
    CORNHU THIS IS NEBRASKA or more than a century, the legacy of Nebraska Football has been growing. From its humble beginning in 1890 – when two games made an entire schedule – to 2008, where an established, nationally prominent program enjoys a rich history of success, Nebraska’s student-athletes have entertained and excelled on all levels. Five national championships and F43 conference titles highlight the accomplishments of one of college football’s most storied programs. There have been Heisman winners and Outland Trophy recipients, a nation-leading number of Academic All-Americans, a Big 12-best graduation rate and many professional football stars. But underlying all of the countless accolades is a football family that does not rely on wins and losses as the fi nal indicator of excellence. Nebraska Football is much more than talented athletes and coaches taking the fi eld to play a game – it is a family. The fans, support staff and student-athletes are all Dedicated to Excellence through Integrity, Trust, Respect, Teamwork and Loyalty. It is this commitment on and off the fi eld that makes Nebraska unique and assures that the rich tradition of the Huskers will keep growing for years to come. Nebraska started the new millennium the same way it ended the last - among the nation’s elite. In the 1980s and 1990s, Nebraska became the fi rst team in the history of Division I football to post 100 wins in back-to-back decades. Since the start of the 1970s, Nebraska has posted the best record of any Division I team (374-92-5).
