Kragthorpe fired

Steve Kragthorpe, who coached quarterbacks for the Bills under Gregg Williams, was fired today as head coach at Louisville. Kragthorpe went 15-21 in three years since replacing Bobby Petrino. Louisville was 4-8 this year. Kragthorpe had revived Tulsa's program before joining Louisville. Don't feel too bad for Kragthorpe, however. He still has two years remaining on his contract at $1.1 million per year and will receive the full amount. It's not Dick Jauron money, but it's not too shabby.
