On topic, I am ready for the Pirate King to hit the SEC. I can't imagine media days with Mike Leach.

MIke Leach is an amazing hire at this point, especially if they make him get a good DC

He'll be able to recruit shitload of speedy receivers to burn fuckers in his offense out there

To have better than the 70th ranked recruiting class or whatever they get out there in wazzu. He has never had teams talented enough to really compete.

Scruggs is a sportscaster in DFW. His viewer base is going to be much more familiar with "former Tech coach" than "Washington State coach."

It'd be a good move for Leach, his Tech teams were extreme overachievers, same with his Wazzu teams. Imagine him having the same level of talent as the teams he plays. His defenses at Wazzu have been sneaky-good, too; this year his defense ranks 23rd in S&P+. He'd loving kill it at Tennessee; imagine if they luck into hiring Mike Leach.

I also love that it basically started with Hugh Freeze getting fired for calling hookers in his state issued
cell phone
and the only reason he got caught was because Houston Nutt got the records in discovery after suing Freeze and the University for allegedly poo poo-talking him to the press and sabotaging the career.

We should have known right then and there how bugnuts loving crazy things would get. This poo poo got started cranked up to 11 and hasn’t been turned down since.

Im buying in harder than I have the other dudes because of Harralson saying he heard it from Leach himself. Normally it’s “I have a source that said...” but he said he heard it from the man himself.

But yeah we’ll probably gently caress this one up too

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.
UT getting Leach is proof positive that you can't do anything but fail upwards as a blueblood.

I don't care about UT but if we can get Leach games back on normal time schedules instead of pac12 bullshit I'm all for it
