(AP) — A historic late- season collapse ended Ron Zook's tenure at Illi- nois after seven seasons. Turner Gill got only two seasons at Kansas before he was let go. Zook and Gill were among four coaches oust- ed on what turned out to be college football's Black Sunday. Memphis fired Larry Porter after two seasons and UAB coach Neil Call- away was pushed into res- ignation after five seasons with the Blazers. In addition, Arizona State was working on Dennis Erickson's depar- ture as Sun Devils coach.

According to STATS, LLC, the Illini are the first FBS team to open the reg- ular-season with six straight wins, and close it with six losses in a row. Zook took the Illini to their first Rose Bowl since the 1980s and last season led the team to its first bowl win in more than a decade. The strong start this season had fans thinking they could con- tend in the Big Ten, and the Illini could still go to a bowl game. The program has had back-to-back bowl appearances since 1991 and '92. But Zook also had five losing seasons in Illinois — finishing with a 34-51 record — and leaves the Illini in a year in which their only Big Ten wins were against Northwest- ern and Indiana. Athletic Director Mike Thomas said Zook left Illinois football better than he found it. But Illi- nois, Thomas said, needs a new leader who can build a team more suited to competing in the Big Ten. ''To me, really, you have to have success with- in your own conference,'' Thomas told reporters. ''The last seven years we won roughly 32 percent of our Big Ten games,'' adding that Illinois had a winning record against only Indiana over that period. Gill arrived at Kansas after taking a perennially downtrodden program at Buffalo to unimaginable heights. But he was fired one day after the Jay- hawks lost 24-10 to rival Missouri and finished the season 2-10.
