I could be wrong on this, but from my understanding Leach has a rolling 5-year contract. If the AD decides to not fire him after the season, another year gets added. That's what this "extension" was about. So I don't believe this would take him off of anyone's board if they really wanted him.

He may be overrated but there is absolutely zero doubt he would pull Arky out of their dark ages and back to at least a modicum of respectability. I’m not sure you can say that about anyone else, even Kiffin.

Hiring Napier over Leach would be absolute insanity

Agreeing and signing are two different things.

Note to OP:

signs extension =/= agreed in principle

Not saying that Leach is going anywhere, but all the article says is that Wazzou and Leach agreed to extend the contract he signed in 2017, at a continuation of his 2020 compensation (no raise), for an additional year.

If the right offer came along, he would probably still consider it (unless the extension involved a hefty increase in his buyout if he were to leave, which currently stands at $1.8 million).
