Huge Potential
It was clear that Kansas brought in Charlie Weis to help improve their offense. As a coach that got his reputation with the New England Patriots winning super bowls in Super Bowl XXXVI, XXXVIII, and XXXIX (*and developing Tom Brady of course), Notre Dame took notice and hired Coach Weis to his first Head Coaching Job in 2005. However, the South Bend faithful lost patience after 4 years Charlie Weis was fired.
In 2010 Weis returned to the NFL as an offensive coordinator with the Kansas City Cheifs before the Flordia Gators hired him back into the college ranks in 2011.
Big Contract
Kansas saw Charlie Weis as a big-time name with a track record of putting together an explosive offense and decided to hire Coach Weis in 2012 as the Head Coach of the Kansas Jayhawks. Athletic director Sheahon Zenger figured Charlie Weis was the household name Kansas needed in order to draw in recruits and compete in the big 12 with a competitive football team.
Zero Offensive Production
With a very slow start in season one, Kansas gave Charlie the benefit of the doubt. Another terrible season in year 2 and a slow start (especially offensively) in 2014 was enough for Kansas and they fired him on September 28, 2014 after putting up a goose egg on the scoreboard against a weak Texas team.
