Chuck Long made the comment that the Iowa State Mangino is not the same one that coached at Oklahoma. Mangino seemed to be collecting a pay check with an eye on retirement. I don't think he was 100% emotional invested in his job and it showed by the results on the field. His failure against Iowa in the second half was evident.
If this truly is the case(Mangino phoning it in) then this is the right move.
Maybe not the right time. But the right move for sure. CPR took the program back today and clearly made a move to start Lanning. I love it.
Is it possible that CPR took Mangino out before Pollard turned the program over to him at end of year? Was this decision made with or without support of Jamie?
Regardless. Would love to see team come together around Lanning and beat Texas.
