Would Leach have the chance to butt-pound Texas Tech at UCLA or UNC?

Nope.  But he'd be at better schools in better locations.

Arizona State would be the perfect job for Mike Leach.

You were pretty excited about the TG hire so whoever you are in favor of, all KSU fans should be too.   :runaway:  <---- if they hire someone Beems doesn't love.

i'm not sure about the UCLA - KU comparo.  seems off to me.

Traditional basketball schools that have had recent success in football?  Seems like a match to me.
UCLA has a much better tradition in football than KU does, that was my point.  they've got 17 conference titles and 1 national title.  they've been to ~30 bowl games.  ku can't touch those numbers.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Chapel Hill is pretty much a fantastic town and UNC is a top flight college.

Leach will do alright at Kansas.  He'll go to bowls more often than not.  But he's going to have to rebuild that pipeline into Texas and get a good DC.  Easier said than done.

He will also have to avoid beating up more players.

the other day on his radio show he was talking about wanting a shot at the Central Florida job for eff sakes.  It is a great situation for both Leach and KU because both are desperate and have no other options.  



How is this any different than when K-State hired Huggins?


ku just fired an abusive coach two years ago for being abusive and mike leach got fired for the same reason. that's a pretty big difference. would be a great hire though, i just don't see how ku can do it. they'd basically be "abusive coaches u".



Translation:  you're terrified that KU is going to hire Leach.

i'm not sure you read what i wrote. i think it'd be a great hire for ku and really hope they get him. i also thought huggins would be a great hire for kstate. kstate didn't just get done firing a coach two years before the huggins hire for being a drunk and getting a very public dui though.

i mean, you can't just fire a guy for an unrelated fball reason and then turn around and hire a guy that was fired from his previous job for the exact same reason that you just fired yours. well i guess you can, but...

Just a couple of realistic points. The ASU job sucks. No community support or interest. Average facilities. Unreal expectations.

None of the programs with openings other than KU are going to seriously consider Leach

Every Pac 12 school should. Leach would rule the Pac 12

Rumor has it that Leach burned a lot of bridges (aside from the Tech administration) with HS coaches and scouts before he left TT.  That may make him as radioactive as any of the numerous lawsuits he's party to.

Yep, and it's still true if you substitute ku for ASU.
