Kansas is paying Jeff Long $1.5 million, which makes him second highest paid AD in the Big 12, just a fraction below Joe Castiglione’s contract at Oklahoma.
He also gets an extension the length of any penalty that any of the major programs may receive for actions before he took the job. So if Kansas basketball gets hit with a year or two penalty, JL gets a two year extension.

The Kansas fans are excited about him building up the football program and that he may be able to hire Bert

Think they would try to get him to hire Chris Bucknam away? I wish they would.

He'll fire Bill Self for prioritizing winning too much.

Jeff will do well, wish him the best.

Does this save the UofA anything? With our luck, probably not....

With our luck
Can't wait for the monthly Jeff Long updates (good or bad) like we got with Petrino and Nutt.

The Arkansas-A&M game is on SECN and just made me pissed at Bielema again. We’re up 21-17 and get the ball back with 1:30 left in the first half. Get the ball to midfield and then waste nearly the entire clock getting the play in, only to take a timeout before the snap

I just hope the expectations of our football program never sink that low. They're saying his Arkansas record would be statue worthy there. I actually think he would be right on par with what they've had there. He wouldn't land big recruits, he wouldn't develop unheralded recruits, and his style would amount to a lot of losses. Imagine Bert's inability to defend a spread offense in the Big 12. Ouch.

Congrats Hermit!
Sad that the GOBN has taken reins of our program

Are you f'ing kidding... Jeff Long was absolutely fricking horrible.
The GOBN at Arkansas is inept no doubt, but the GOBN at winning programs make them what they are... winning programs.

LOL Hey Genius - Are you gullible enough to think Arkansas wouldn't have made moves on the facilities front during Long's time on The Hill had he not been there?
Actually, you probably are.

ADD: I think it's time we get more money from the Walton's and start serving up these bad boys:
