Les Miles Reportedly Interests Kansas for Vacant Head Coach Job

The Kansas Jayhawks are reportedly interested in bringing in a marquee name for their soon-to-be vacant head coaching position.

According to Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports, Kansas has "legit interest" in hiring former LSU coach Les Miles. Feldman noted Miles has a relationship with athletic director Jeff Long, although he cautioned there is concern because of "how hard you have to grind" to be competitive in the Big 12 with the Jayhawks.

Barrett Sallee of CBS Sports noted Kansas announced Sunday it will not bring head coach David Beaty back following the 2018 campaign even though he will be on the sidelines for the final three games.
