but a shite coach.

Why would anyone want him?


He won 11 games at Texas Tech (only 3 times in history has that been accomplished) and Washington St (never has that been accomplished).

He has down years here and there and rarely fields a competent defense, but if you think he's a shitty coach I don't know what to tell you. He consistently overachieves.

He could win 10 games at Arkansas, and they sure as hell better take that.

He’s like Petrino, but with personality.

I’d love to see him at SC or Mizzou. I’d hate to have him at Ole Miss or Arky and have to play him every year.

The great thing about Leach for SC or Arky is that he is used to operating with talent that is lesser than his competition, dude absolutely deserves a run in the SEC

Did you see his record this year? 6-6 and that is not good enough to compete in the SEC. He would go 6-6 or less here in the SEC at school like Arkansas. Not that good and have no defense!

Pretty sure Arkansas would take 6-6 right now.

It will not be 6-6 in the SEC! It would be more like 4-8 or 5-7! He is at 6-6 in the PAC 12! SEC is by far a lot tougher! No way he goes 6-6 at Arkansas!

It’s Washington State though. A lot of places can recruit far better than they can, and have way better facilities.

Arkansas included.

What have he done with the defense? Been known with terrible defense just about every head coaching job he had have so far. Just not a SEC head coach. Need defense to compete here in the SEC. That is first thing on the list to have a strong defense. Also how come top programs have not hired him?

He is great for sound bytes but he may be the most overrated coach in the country. Lazy recruiter and in the SEC that doesn’t work.

with the right staff, he would be a 8/9 win coach when his system is implemented.

but.... keep on keeping on....

I think he would have multiple losing seasons in the SEC. There are so few easy wins here and his talent disadvantage in the SEC would be greater than it has been in the B12 or PAC 12. He just doesn’t give a shite about recruiting and that doesn’t work here, no matter how good of a coach you are.

You don't want Leach in the SEC.

He will never win a championship but every year his teams win games against some team that is much better than his teams.

He will break your heart with 2 and 3 star talent.

No, he wasn't... He was let go after (1) season for helping orchestrate the worst defense in OSU history.

So you're saying he would actually win conference games at Arkansas?

Sign the man.

WA State doesn’t have to play Bama, LSU, Auburn, & A&M every year either. Arky May have nice facilities, but recruiting to Fayetteville is beyond brutally difficult. Arky is one of the most difficult jobs in the country as a coach.
