Les Miles out as Kansas Jayhawks' head football coach

Les Miles is out as Kansas' head football coach three days after being placed on administrative leave by the university.

Kansas athletic director Jeff Long said in a statement last Friday that the university was conducting a full review to determine the appropriate steps on Miles' future after reports of his conduct while he coached at LSU were made public last week.

According to a copy of Miles' employment contract with Kansas, the university would have "just cause" to end its agreement with Miles if the coach had "discreditable conduct that is inconsistent with the professional standards expected of a head coach of a collegiate sports team.
