But that also makes the mad hatter eligible at 59.7%. His lawsuit is probably moot now.

It was already dismissed by a judge, but he has further damaged his reputation with LSU.

Also Germans

Really silly to put a set barometer on a hall of fame like that.

Les should be in. The stuff he was accused of here at LSU is/was tremendously overblown

Agreed…Reggie Bush got his Heisman back… whatever they think less had to do with paying V Alexander, should be forgiven now if Reggie is forgiven

Agree that players shouldn’t be punished

Lowering standards is great, isn’t it?

Ehhh Les was a creep. Him getting carried off the field vs A&M was such a terrible night all the Facebook moms bitching about him potentially getting let go. Then promising changes were coming and to see that same ol bullshite offense run out vs Wisconsin at Lambeau. That trip was incredible outside of the second half of that game. Stubborn as shite.

His last play at LSU was one of the highest highs and lowest lows all in one play I’ve ever seen.

Fitting end for him

I guess I'm pretty ambivalent as to whether he gets in the HOF or not, but obviously it's very important to him as he went as far as legal action with the main reason behind that action being his desire to get into the HOF.

And I'm sure he's not the only creeper that would be in that HOF should he get in.

If ML was still alive and fell off the winning wagon.... he would not be in the HOF conversation.

It's a stupid threshold anyway. Look at Mike Leach's winning percentage compared to all other seasons ever for those 3 programs. Coach WAR should be a stat. His would be excellent

As evidenced by the Hall simply tossing it aside on a whim.

Put him in and reinstate his wins, as well.

Brian Kelly and Nick Saban said as much and how Mike Leach revolutionized college football.
