The Kansas City Star confirmed that Nutt talked to the AD about the job. Guess he sees the talent level fading as Coach O's recruits graduate.

would be a step down though he does seem to wear out his welcome pretty regurally.

KU is interviewing Turner Gill (Buffalo Univ) tomorrow. You know Fulmer cut his teeth in coaching at Wichita State. Wonder if he is interested?

If Nutt is smart he will bounce to Kansas. I feel like he has been fooling people about his coaching prowess for a while now.

There appears to be two strong candidates for the Kansas head coach vacancy, but another name is now thrown into the mix.

ESPN.com's Chris Low links us to a Kansas City Star report which says Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt is interested in the Kansas job, and that he's talked about it with Kansas AD Lew Perkins.

We ranked the candidates to make this easy for you:

1. Turner Gill, Buffalo: Kansas AD Lew Perkins may have already met with Gill after Buffalo gave Kansas permission to talk to their coach. The meeting likely happened (or will happen) in New York, because Perkins is traveling to Manhattan for the National Football Foundation's annual awards luncheon, at which Jayhawks QB Todd Reesing is up for an award. But Gill might not have his hopes up yet. Last offseason, he interviewed for the head coaching vacancy at Auburn and was considered the favorite by some. He was passed over for Gene Chizik, which drew the ire of none other than Charles Barkely.

2. Jim Harbaugh, Stanford: Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh was reportedly the top target early on. But he may be waiting for an NFL job, and he's also been interviewed for the Notre Dame job, which is likely more attractive than the KU opening.

3. Houston Nutt, Ole Miss: This name came out of the blue, but the Kansas City Star reports that Nutt is interested in the job and that he's met with Perkins. However, there's no word on whether Perkins is interested. As ESPN.com's Chris Low points out, Nutt's name has often been brought up when jobs open.

Other candidates: Southern Mississipi coach Larry Fedora, Boise State coach Chris Peterson, Oklahoma defensive coordinator Brent Venables, Central Michigan's Butch Jones and UConn's Randy Edsall.

Also, Houston's Kevin Sumlin was in the running but that may soon change. Houston is looking to restructure and elongate his contract after a successful season, ESPN.com's Graham Watson tweets.

That said, the two favorite appear to be Harbaugh and Gill, with Gill more likely to make the jump to the land of Oz.

Per ESPN on the issue. Would be wise for him to move on.

He needs to get out while the getting is good, save himself the embarrassment we're going to put on him and his lousy team next year.

I was thinking the same thing about NYC.....which is why I got out of there. There are a few of us on here that live in Kansas or near Kansas.

1) The combination of Orgeron's recruits starting to leave and the SECW not getting any easier, especially compared to the B12N.

2) Trolling for a raise.

I am thinking FSU is getting stronger coaching and recruiting wise as Jimbo upgrades his staff,,, LSwho stays strong, Mullins is doing crazy good for MSU which is taking recruits away, Saban is doing his thing, and now Porter is just north of him making plays for better recruits -- i would say the Kitchen is getting quite a bit hotter in Oxford.,,,
