Former Kansas football assistant John Hadl met with Athletic Director Bob Frederick to interview for the head coaching job and to explain his possible role in recruiting violations.

Hadl, who allegedly was involved in National Collegiate Athletic Assn. rule infractions that resulted in the Jayhawks being placed on probation, was told Dec. 7 that he would not be asked for an interview. But Frederick decided to meet with Hadl to hear his side of the recruiting incident, according to a newspaper report.
