Fans and the media made a big deal of this 10-year anniversary. It is of one of the greatest seasons in Kansas football history. I did give give much thought about the anniversary. That is until the university announced in early August the return of former coach Mark Mangino. That news got everyone’s attention.
Fans welcomed Mangino back with open arms. The KU Athletics Hall of Fame will now include a special place for Mangino and this outstanding team. Fans still enjoy remembering that incredible run for Jayhawk football. What a fun season.
ESPN’s College GameDay even mentioned the 2007 team during Saturday’s show.
