KU's Mangino reacts to Kansas Sports Hall of Fame selection

TOPEKA (KSNT) - The 2008 Orange Bowl-winning coach, Mark Mangino, is already in KU football's history books, but now he'll be in those of the state of Kansas as well.

Mangino is among 12 inductees selected for the 2024 Kansas Sports Hall of Fame class, who will be honored at the ceremony in October. The former KU head coach led the Jayhawks from 2002 to 2009, winning three of four bowl games and posting an all-time best 12-win season along the way.

'I'm thankful for anything in life," Mangino said of the selection.
