Deserved it's own thread, IMO.

Thanks for smoothing the waters, OB. 

Who is with me?

Of course.  I'll bet Bill is working hard behind to scenes to make this happen.  You just you wait and see.  I mean, certainly he would want that, wouldn't he?

what about a HCIW deal for a year or two.  Depending on how hot this gets legally with TTU he may not be a viable HC for a bit.

Why would he be HCIW for a coach he is clearly superior to in every fathomable way?

No.  That motherfracker wouldn't even get rid of an assistant coach(es) when it would have been  good for the program.  the hilarious part is that if by some kwanza miracle ksu did hire leach, the addition of billy cosh might actually be a good thing...marking the first impact QB snyder recruited this century.

Associate Head Coach year one with control of offense (mostly to "settle the waters" around leach and also allows leach to evaluate current staff).  Head coach year two. :love:

Can you imagine a leach offense with cosh at qb and Lamur, Brod Smith, Harper, and Lamar at wr with DT and a handful of scat back/slot receivers around him.  :hope:

Im not sure that Leach would fit in with OB and company.
Leach is a very outside the box kinda guy with a different mentality than what k-state is used to. Where as k-state football has always been an old school, hard working, run-based team.
However maybe someone like Leach would be a good hire in order to shake things up!?




Any thoughts  :dunno:

I'm on board.  Bring him in now.  No reason to wait.  No HCIW, just HC.

And I was before too when some nazi admin decided my thread should be merged with the existing Leach thread.  I'm sorry, is there that much KSU football news going on that we need to consolidate all Mike Leach related threads?  No, I didn't think so.

Look, he is either going to be in a legal battle defending his name which means he will be too hot.  OR
IF he doesn't defend his name ESPN will take full license on screwing us even more because leach &@#%ed with one of their own.

Let him be an OC for a couple years till crap cools, hopefully he wins his legal battle with TTU, and cruits will love him.

"k-state football has always been an old school, hard working, run-based team."

not really true with May, Miller, and even Kavanaugh we were really more of a west coast pass based offense.  After Beasley we converted to a more conservative ball control run offense.

That type of crap is what has got us to the point where we have Ben and the other tards poking fun that we have gone to a bowl game once in 6 years.

Change or change will be imposed upon you!

1st sentence should be modified to read

"k-state football is geared towards winning -- all other theories, take first exit"

Leach fits that.

Title: Re: HIRE MIKE LEACH NOW!!!!!!!!
Post by: catzacker on December 30, 2009, 03:09:29 PM
does leach's offense "travel"?  i mean, is someone going to take him in as an OC and would he conform his offense to whatever they hell that team is currently running?  or would he want to implement his own unique system (which, by the way, wouldn't get fully implemented before he was offerred another job, therefore leaving that team f'd because they spent a recruiting class or 2 getting kids who fit that offense and teaching kids 7ft splits).

btw, the idea of having leach as KSU's OC is stupid. like we need another X’s and O’s guy.

If Snyder is here to coach until he dies or is unable to continue then I am all for it.

But if he's really serious about this "I'm just here to calm the waters" bullcrap, then we should have a coaching search every single year until the right guy pops up.  

Leach could be that guy.  Why not interview him?

Two thoughts:
1.  Leach is a hot commodity, who was fired by TT because he's an interview whore with other programs.  Are there more desirable jobs than KSU that would try to hire Leach?  or,
2.  Huggins set us up as a program that hires bad boys.  So, why not dangle a carrot?
Title: Re: HIRE MIKE LEACH NOW!!!!!!!!
Post by: ksuchris2000 on December 30, 2009, 03:37:08 PM
This is going to be a fantastic TT meltdown...

Quote
Liggett read the termination letter aloud in the packed courtroom. When he reached the part that made it clear Leach was fired, many in the gallery gasped audibly.

Several fans called out that they wouldn't be renewing their season tickets.

Outside the court, after the firing had been announced, a motorist yelled out his vehicle window, "Fire Myers," referring to athletic director Gerald Myers.

Leach and Myers did not always see eye-to-eye, as was the case in last year's contentious contract negotiations. Myers was not happy that Leach met with University of Washington officials about their job opening without informing the university.

Myers did not immediately return a call seeking comment Wednesday.

Bill Dean, executive vice president of the 28,000-member Texas Tech Alumni Association, said he has been bombarded by e-mail and phone calls from alumni who are angry about Leach's firing.

"I think people are wanting an explanation for this," Dean said. "I'm sure the university will give them one. That's my hope. That that will happen very soon."

Totally correct.  Can you imagine if our AD was forward thinking enough, and I'm not saying he is or he isn't, to do a good solid search, extending "feelers" every year from here forward?  I truly hope there is even a chance this is happening.  The reality that OB could just say "I'm done" again needs to be realized unless we want to end up with some loser who is currently on this non-recruiting staff.

Leach is a nice coach, but I don't see him winning a National Title before OB.  Snydz had a real nice run around the turn of the Millennium if you recall. 

Remember TT has a pretty good recruiting bed right there, and they were getting UT castoffs rather than the A&M castoffs they used to get. 

Now if he ends up at a place like OU or Michigan he'll be in pretty good shape being able to pick up the big-time recruits, but he's not going to win a National Title in Manhattan or Pullman.

You've already dismissed VikingPak?

Besides, the ramping up for the banner was magical.  I have no doubt that the prospect of it - which KSU higher-ups knew was happening - didn't hurt the timing of RP's dismissal.

Leach would contend for the north every 2 or 3 years.  I'd take Leach in a heartbeat.

Snyder's contract is meaningless (even compared to other college football coach's contracts which are all meaningless to begin with).  I don't know that there has been a coach in the history of college football that has had their current contract hold them up from taking another job.

Not a put-down, mind you. I just noticed it (on BOTC) right before you posted it.

I would be perfectly ok with Leach being our coach and we consistently win 8-9 games a year.  Can't even imagine how much fun it would be to throw a billion yards a season  :love:

We would get so mad that whoever our QB was isn't a Hiesman contender.

This guys says Snyder is working to get Leach!

For those of you without GPC access, it indicates that he has an "a1" source informing him that Snyder is interested in pursuing Leach as the next HC.  This guy seems totally legit.  :pirate:

Obviously, the screen name is lacking some key punctuation (as are the posts).  It should probably be Catman_Gino07.  See, he's a "Cat Man," hence the adorable cat that he is cuddling with in his photo.

However, MidAmerica Nazarene does explain part of the punctuation problem.

In either case, this dude is on to something here....odds are that OB has this &@#%er half way done by now.

Can you imagine?  The Offensive FBIQ would be through the roof if Coach Snyder and Leach got together.  I, for one, say, "Let's make this happen!"

Is anyone against leech as a coach?  I'm not a big fan of the guy just because of the game at home two years ago and the way his players taunted our players and fans - while a trainer taped it, that kinda pissed me off.

Mike just hasn't been given his opportunity...prolly has some eligibility left.  I think he would be our star QB in 2010, if he decides to commit to us.  :hope:

I would be pretty pumped for Leach as HC, if for nothing more than an opportunity to bring the "Bell Ringer" tradition to KSU.
