So where does Mike Leach end up? Washington St.

[graydogg85]

I've heard Mike Leach's name associated with vacancies at Kansas, Washington State, UCLA, Arizona State, Ole Miss and North Carolina. Given the level of interest he's garnered, it seems extremely unlikely that he emerges from this offseason without an FBS head coaching job in hand. The guy is quirky, unconventional and has had more than a couple of public displays of very poor judgement, but I think he's an incredible offensive mind with a proven track record of success. I think somebody will take the plunge and hire him, baggage nonwithstanding. So where do you guys think he ends up? What would be the best fit, and where would he be most successful?

I personally think he's holding out for the East Carolina job.

People either love him or hate him but all have to admit he produces an entertaining show on the field and puts rear ends in seats and eyeballs on TV's.

I doubt the adm at UCLA would tolerate his eccentricities but give him a few years and he would own the PAC 12.

The huge majority of Taco Tech fans would LOVE to have him back.

I think he'd be a good pick up for Ole Miss if he found a solid defensive coordinator. Lots of speed in the state of Miss. and he could sell his offense to wide receivers in the area. Was always good a producing a system qb. I think he's make ole Miss respectable and would breathe new life into their program.

As long as the lawsuit is out there against Texas Tech, Leach will not be coaching in college IMO. Even when settled I still don't believe he will coach at a big name school.

It sounds like Ole Miss is targeting Kirby Smart as HC. So I doubt Leach ends up there.

Yeah because that's such a good place to be. Seriously, he should go to UCLA or Kansas.

IMHO, until Leach settles his lawsuit, no university will touch him. I do not think there is an AD or university that wants to be associated with that nonsense, no matter how desperate they are.

I hope he gets a very good job and ESPN has Game Day at one of his games and Craig James is designated to interview him prior to said game.

I want to be able to see it! Let's see how Mr. James deals with this.

Would it be a FIGHT or an interview?

Seriously, I expect Leach to still be broadcasting a below average talk radio show next year.

Why do you guys think he wants to go to ECU? Am I missing some appeal or something? I don't get that logic at all.

Thank you for answering my question. Makes sense now that you guys put it that way.

Why not MSU if Mullen leaves? They have a good meteorologist school...

Hey! I like this idea even better, but make that twosome Mike Leach and Craig James!
