BUFFALO, N.Y. — The University at Buffalo has granted Kansas permission to interview Turner Gill for their vacant coaching position.
In confirming permission had been granted on Monday, Buffalo spokesman Paul Vecchio said the school did not know whether the two parties had spoken. Citing a source, The Buffalo News reported that Gill met with Kansas officials in New York City on Sunday.
Kansas is searching for a new coach after Mark Mangino resigned Thursday.
Gill is a former star quarterback at Nebraska and very familiar with the Big 12 Conference. As a first-time head coach, Gill has gone 20-30 in four seasons at Buffalo, and led the Bulls to their first Mid-American Conference title in 2008.
