Leach to LSU!

Miami HC? Didn't happen.
Muraland HC? Nope.

Maybe we can stand land him. I'm trying to boost my moral. Because no news is bad news...another day that Gary Crowton is on the staff.

I could actually see it. He wants to get back into coaching(HC first but hasn't ruled out OC) and hasn't landed a HC gig.

I could too. If Belowpar's info was legit. Obviously hes going to try to get a HC gig first and foremost but if he doesn't get that, maybe he settles as an OC for now. LSU ain't a bad place to land if you can't get a headman job. I wonder if Pitt would make a run at him but I'm not sure about that. After Haywood's arrest, Leach may be a little too controversial.

This is the key. I'm just waiting to see what happens after the Cotton Bowl with regards to Crowton, though.

If he couldnt get the maryland job even w inside help, he likely wont get a HC job until the legal stuff has been dispensed with.

why would any LSU "fan" want this to happen?

I could see why fans of Ole Miss, Moo St, Arky, Aubie, Bama or any SEC East school would want this.

Two things about Leach:
- he doesn't know the definition of the word "running back"; and
- Miles wants to run the ball in a pro-style format, he needs to find an OC with whom his philosophy meshes so he can stop overruling playcalls or it will be more of the same as what we see now

The stars are aligning for a lot of strange moves to happen this off-season. This board will get very busy soon.

I just don't see Miles and Leach working together. They are total opposites when it comes to offense

You see...LSU's offense sucks arse. Mike Leach has proven he knows how to run an offense.

quote:

- he doesn't know the definition of the word "running back"


Common mis-perception. Texas Tech can't recruit the big name 5 star runningbacks so his system at TT largely relied on his QB. Because of this, the production he did get from his running backs was largely overlooked.

In 2008, RB Baron Batch had 113 carries for 758 yards and 7 TDs. He also had 45 receptions for 450 yards.

In 2009 Batch had 168 carries for 884 yards 14TDs. 57 catches for 395 yards.

In addition to Batch's 884 in 2009, Harrison Jeffers added 217 yards and Eric Stevens rushed for 254. There you have it... just last year under Leach 3 guys split the load and rushed for over 1300 yards. Mythbusted.

Miles loves to pound the ball out of the I. What beter way to open up that ability than throw in Leach's passing attack.

personally I think Leach would be jumping for joy at the chance to finally run his offense with all the top talent that LSU has.

What sort of potentially "legit" info did Belowpar post? I'm not trying to be a wiseguy, but I don't know what he said. Please provide some info.
