Mark Mangino (born August 26, 1956) is the head coach of the Kansas Jayhawks college football team. In 2005, he led them to victory in the Fort Worth Bowl.
Mangino is one of five current NCAA Division I-A football coaches who did not play college football. He graduated from Youngstown State University in 1987, serving as an assistant coach there in his last two years. He also coached at Lincoln High School in Ellwood City, Pennsylvania and Geneva College, before being hired as an assistant coach at Kansas State University in 1991. Prior to the 1999 season, Mangino left Kansas State to take an assistant position at the University of Oklahoma. While there, he served as the offensive coordinator for the team that beat Florida State for the 2000 national championship. Following that season, he was awarded the Frank Broyles Award as the nation's top assistant coach.
Mangino was hired to his current position in December 2001. In 2005, his fourth season at KU, the team finished the regular season 6-5, to post their first winning record under Mangino, and went on to the Fort Worth Bowl, their second bowl game in three seasons. Among the Jayhawks' wins was a 40-15 victory over Nebraska, breaking a losing streak that dated back to 1968, which was the second-longest such streak of consecutive losses in NCAA history. The same year Mangino also built a defense that ranked 11th nationally (based on yards per game) and featured third-team All-American and Big 12 Conference Defensive Player of the Year linebacker Nick Reid. The 2005 team also ranked 6th nationally in total punts.

[edit] NCAA Penalties and Probation
In 2006, the NCAA found 5 major violations including academic fraud had been committed by members of the Jayhawk's football program under Mark Mangino. These major violations, along with 4 others from other sports, contributed to the NCAA charging the Kansas University Athletics with "Lack of institutional control". A graduate assistant was found to have supplied answers to correspondence courses being taken by potential athletes. It is likely that Mark Mangino did not know of the infractions. As a result, the football team was limited for two years in its recruitment of Juco transfers, and lost 2 scholarships for each of the 2007 and 2008 seasons.
[edit] Controversy
In 2004, Mangino paid a $5,000 fine for suggesting that officials acted with favoritism in an offensive pass interference call that arguably affected the outcome of a game against Texas. Mangino implied that money and a BCS berth for the Big 12 Conference influenced the officials to make a call in favor of Texas. He and athletic director Lew Perkins issued public apologies the day after the incident.
